MESSAGE "He Is My Knight"

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood;  but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."   - Ephesians 6:12


      **************************************************





"The time has come for war. 
War in the spirit. 
War between good and evil, between God and Satan. \
This is real. 
This is real life.


Get ready. 
Get your armor ready. 
Polish it up. 
Put it on.



Let Me be your Leader...
your General...
your Commander.

I will give you strategy. 
I will lead, if you will follow. 
I know all the secrets...all the inside information....
I know it before it happens. 
Come to Me...listen....breathe Me in...let My power envelope you...
let Me *be* you...let Me transform your weakness into strength. 

Arm yourselves with My arsenal...My battery...My fuselage...My powerful weaponry. 
I am stronger, smarter, wiser, more capable-- and more able than your enemies.




*******



So, who are your foes, your opponents? 
Do you know who your enemy is?

Satan, or the Devil, is real. 
He is your mortal enemy. 
He is also your supernatural, spiritual enemy. 
But he makes his mark on the physical, too. 
He is well able to hurt your bodies. 
He is an expert at destroying minds. 
He hates all humans, as he hates Me. 
He is NOT your friend, no matter how alluring he is.




He works by deceit, by lies. 
He appears as an "angel of light"...or a "good angel". 
He says all the right things at the right time. 
He is a master of coincidence. 
He is smooth, 
slick, 
handsome (if need be), 
clever, 
ultra-intelligent 
...and a 'winner' (it seems).



The devil is not a myth, not a 'cute story'. 
He has made the world laugh... and to think of him as a harmless cartoon. 
This is a grave mistake; to believe he is harmless and funny. 
He is no comedien...
he in pure evil, 
total degradation and filth.
He will drag you through the mud, 
through the slime and putrid alleys of his manure and stench. 
He thrives on lies, fantasy, errors, half-truths, apathy, cruelty, apprehension, fright, panic, etc. 
He is no one to pal around with. 
Better to be alone...than to have him as your friend.



*******


Other enemies of your soul are ego, pride, greed, sloth, laziness, apathy, gluttony, hate, etc;....the things that bear heavy burdens upon you. 
They may start out as "neutral" things in your lives, 
but (they) end up as controlling and shackling. 
No one wants to be in slavery;   in bondage, held captive.
No one wants to be captured by something or someone. 
Sins, 
destructive habits, 
addictions, etc;...all control and enslave your every waking moment. 

Fear is the worst offender. 
Fear paralyzes. 
Lies. 
Destroys. 
Cripples. 
Fear is one of the very worst of the human being's opponents in life.




*******



I, your Lord and your Rescue 
...will help. 
I will help. 
I am here to help you....
all of you...
anyone who asks...
I will help.




Call upon Me and I will answer you
...I will be your help in time of need
...I will be your strong and high tower
...your shield
...your Armor. 

I will be your Knight, 
your prince, 
your strong Saviour, 
your ally, 
your war lord...
I am He."

MESSAGE "My Broken Family"

 3:40pm 3/2/14


*I keep hearing, through out the day: "My family is broken up..."




"My family is gone ... My family is broken up ... split up ... scattered ... dispersed ... strewn-about.


A family should be together...(it) should work together ... play together .. .love together. I am sad, I am sad ... My family is gone.  I am lonely.  I need My children, My family, about Me, around Me.


-pause-



Where are they? where is My family, My loved ones, My people ... ?  I see them ... I see them, scattered, broken, bruised, hurt. I see My blood, My flesh, My body... (They) are all over the world ... but they are apart.


My family is hurting ... they are cold ... they are sick ... they are lonely .. .they are in need. They suffer ...they cry ... they silently endure. My little ones suffer the most;   for they do not understand their lives.  Let them come to Me ... let them know of Me, of My love, of My love, of My love.



As a gentle shepherd lovingly cares for his flock of worn sheep, so do I care for My sheep, My lambs, My infant lambs.


I grieve to see the condition of My flocks upon this earth. I grieve, I grieve.


-pause-



Surely I did not intend this to be.  My intent was for peace, for security, for gladness and joy. I never wanted this misery upon the earth, upon My creation. I do not ever want such suffering ... for any creature: human or animal. I planned a world, a place, a paradise .... for My family... My human family. I love you all so much ... in ever intended such chaos for you.  Hear My heart, hear My heart.



-pause-



So why do you rebel and turn form My love? Why do you run? why do you resist Me?  Why do you turn to other 'loves' ... other 'lovers' ... other gods and idols of your fancy? Why turn from the One who loves you so?



I see (that) you are all deceived, to some degree ... that is the way of the world.  It is a world of deception, of falsity, of mirages, or illusion, of delusion, of thwarted imaginations.


I seek to save you ... I came to 'seek and to save that which was lost' ... that would be YOU!  I  am the saver ...  you are the ones needing Me ... I came to rescue you, to give you a better life...



-pause-


3:47pm


{new subject?}



The fire is in the furnace.
What does that mean, you ask?  It implies a refining ... a purification. Yes, many of you are laden with sins, with excesses, with fleshly desires, with unabated hungers and appetites ... all to satisfy the flesh, the mortal man, the natural man.  That is to be expected ... I see the ways of the body, of the flesh, of the sexual excess, of the gluttony, the greed, the anger, the hatred. I see ALL the many, many, varied *works of the flesh*  .... there are MANY!



Yes, I am well acquainted with ALL your weaknesses, oh man, oh woman ... oh child.  I see it all. I see it all. I know all about it ... about ALL of it. I see, I see.



*******

So how can such an unholy, vile, sordid, evil generation ever expect any goodness, any help form Me? I will show mercy on who I choose. My rain, My mercy ... falls on the just as well as the unjust ... on the innocent, as well as the guilty.  I am no *respecter of persons*... that means I am not partial, I am not biased ... I do not show favoritism as humans do.



I offer (My) love, My mercy ... to all ...  I will rain upon the whole earth ...  I will send My floods of love to all ... to all .... to all!!


I assure you, people of the earth ... I will visit you ... in your time. I will meet with you ... I will let you into My covering of glory and grace.  You will experience it ... you will (then) KNOW that I am who I said I am!



-pause-



It is so easy to judge others, from the outer appearance, or from their 'sin life'.  WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE?  I am the only judge ... I will mete out any judgement, in My way, on My day. I am a fair, merciful judge.



*******

I love justice ... I love defense ... I love meting out good, fair judgement.  Judging can be good, can be fair, can be beneficial. I am your defense, whether you know it or not.  I am your defender in this life.



I am your mediator ... between you and My Father.  I am the law giver. I show you, by My Spirit, what the 'laws of My Spirit are' ...
how they are 'written upon your hearts' ... yes.



I supernaturally engraft(ed) My laws upon your hearts, as you offer yourselves to Me;   as you give Me access into your hearts and souls and spirits.  I take your hard, darkened, jaded hearts of stone ... and turn them into soft, bright, pliable, spiritual hearts of flesh, of My flesh!



You then become flesh of My flesh! We are then true spiritual family, as I always intended!



-pause-



If you see (or sense) a brother or sister is in trouble ... then pray for them.  Ask Me to help them ... do not presume to know all the details. The details are My business ... I will help them privately.



Send My love to all. Send practical help, if possible! Ask of Me, ask of Me ... what should I do, Lord? what can I do? A simple gesture of honest kindness can be very life-giving!



If it in your ability to help someone, please do it! Do things in secret, if you can. Let no one boast of their giving. Let Me reward you, at the opportune time of My choice.  The humble will be lifted up.



*******



I am free. I am free to all. I am a free God .... Where My spirit is, there is liberty.... .there is real freedom! I am free as the wind! I rush through the skies! I am unhindered, at My supreme place. I am the Most High, yes, but I am with you, here, now. I am the God who sees, who feels, who empathizes.



Turn your words of hatred into words of reconciliation. Let your anger be turned to meek agreement ... and into newly-forged alliances.  Let there be new unity! Let  there be a coming together of peoples, of individuals, of My lost ones, of My lost and battered sheep.



*******




Let the unity be (as) a foundation for the beginning of My out-pourings ... My fresh flow of Heavenly manna ... coming down upon My beloved family ... My creation, for indeed, I have come for all ... I am come for all of you. I love all of you.



Wait ... and seek ...  and wait again ... for Me. I will visit. Do not miss the time of YOUR visitation!"

MESSAGE "Mind War"

"Guard your heart. 
 Put a shield upon it, around it.


 Guard your emotions.



-pause-


There is a war, a battle; for your minds. 
It is the darkest, 
most vicious, 
most entangling, 
most complex, 
most hurtful, 
most effectively-wounding; 
battle ever fought. 

It is mostly an unseen battle ... 
an invisible struggle, 
but still - VERY, VERY - REAL.
  
It is the worst of all battles.




This war has your soul at stake. 
It has your peace, 
your joy, 
your happiness ... 
as it's spoils.  
It does not play fair. 

It has evil intentions, always.



The war of which I am speaking is a spiritual war. 
It is fought in the air, 
up in the air;   
as well as on the ground ... 
and in your very minds. 

It is where many fall.



Many die in this war. 
Many are living, yet dead. 
Many are walking corpses, 
with brain death ...
and emotional death.



-pause-



I say to you,
'Come to Me and I will give you rest ... 
My rest.'



I am well acquainted with grief, 
with sorrow, 
with depression, 
with heart-ache, 
with raw and brutal rejection. 
ALL of My followers forsook Me, 
at one point. 

I was left, 
abandoned, 
forsaken. 

I know how it feels.



-pause-




Remember this ... 
I am with you always. 
I am near to you now. 
As you call upon Me, 
I will come to you. 

I come near to the broken, 
the brokenhearted, 
the lost ones, 
the lonely, 
the hurt, 
the wounded; 
the wounded warriors of all kinds.




I can offer you My peace NOW.  
Take it, 
accept it, 
ask Me for it, 
cry to Me ... 
I will hear. 
I am willing to help. 

I am not a god that is afar off ... 
for I am as near as your beating heart, 
and as your breath of life.




I shower you daily with My mercies ... 
they are new every morning, including today.




I will bring good to you, 
but you must be looking for it, 
and wait for it, 
sometimes-- .... 
for sometimes,  the good things ARE delayed for various reasons.



********



Wait for Me ... 
wait for Me, 
says the Lord. 

I will come to you ...
and rain down My grand and glorious treasures upon you; 
My people, 
My children, 
My followers, 
My creation.




I rain mercy upon the just, 
and the unjust ... 
the good and the bad. 

ALL will feel My healing rains ... 
My rain of love, 
My rains of mercy, 
of grace, 
of power, 
of truth, 
of delivering power!




I will repay evil, 
says the Lord. 

Do not fret, 
do not fear ... 
but be brave and of a good courage ... 
I will do that thing I have promised (you).




Seek Me while I may be found; 
for there is a time, 
a time of utter despair and thick darkness, 
when no one will be able to find Me, 
and the door(s) will be shut.




*******




Cease not in your pursuit of Me, 
yet take time to STOP .... 
and listen and wait upon Me ... 
for then I will have space, 
have room, 
have a window, 
a platform ... 
to "show off" !




I love to publicly show My 'wares' ... 
My 'tricks' ... 
My feats, My glorious works, 
My demonstrations of pure power,  
My wonders untold, 
My miraculous abilities, 
My love, 
My kindness, 
My generosity, 
My skills, 
My giftings, 
My compassion 
... and My Presence.




Yes, I like to be among My people in power.




Let Me be myself, 
and I will show you all great and mighty things."

MESSAGE "New Mercy"

*Psalm 118:24 "This is the day that the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."


"Every morning My mercies are new. 
I bring a fresh start - a fresh outlook - to each new day. 
I love those that love Me... 
and I love those who seek Me early: 
not only early in their day, 
but also as a matter of priority. 

Seek Me before all other activities. 
Will you seek Me today...
or will you ignore Me and put Me aside for later? 
I bring fresh 'bread' for you each and every day. 
(The time on the clock is not as important as your heart's motivation!)



When you put Me, your Lord, first...
then all else follows. 
Everything else 'falls into place'. 
Did I not promise (that)... if you seek Me first, 
then all other things will be added unto you?


I made the day. 
I created 'day'. 
I created 'time'. 
I created *you*. 
Will you not stop and acknowledge your Maker...
your Creator...
your Father?


Oh, taste and see that I am good. 
I am a good God. 
I am *THE* good God.



Look at the birds. 
See how carefree they are.
Consider the lilies of the field.  
(They just 'are'.) 
They do not fret and toil. 
They are examples to you of My *tender mercies*. 
I care for the flowers, the birds ... 
but mostly, 
I care for the creation of people. 
Of souls. 
Of lives ... 
of destinies.



Jump in the river! 
The water is fine! 
Come 'swim' with Me! 
Wash off the dirt and grime of this earth! 
Come clean in Me ... 
I cleanse and purify ... 
I make you cleaner than any fuller's soap.



Jump on in - the water is fine! 
Splash and be free...
be liberated...
as little children frolicking at the beach! 
Jump into My waves...
let My 'current' carry you...
dive into the 'deep end'...
I am there! 
Let's go swimming! 
Swimming in My Spirit ... 
in My River!



What the devil means for evil I turn to good. 
I catch the 'crafty one' in his own craftiness. 
He falls into his own snares. 
I upset his devices. 
I send My angelic host to topple his empire. 
His wickedness and schemery are exposed by My leadings. 
I smash and crumble. 
I demolish the 'hosts of hell'. 
I am a type of 'Rambo'...
I set at naught the 'evil empire' of Satan. 
He will *not* prevail.


I am King of kings and Lord of all eternity. 
He (satan) is under *My* authority. 
He will not have the last word: *I* will. 
I am Lord of all.


My army (including you: each of you) must be under My control; My direction. 
They must be at attention and *wait* for My command. 
Do not move until I give the word. 
Do not go out without spiritual armor. 
Do not go without My Spirit (anointing power) upon you. 
Do not go without Me.



IF you go alone, you will be injured or destroyed. 
This enemy - yours and Mine - is too powerful for you to withstand alone. 
*Never* think you can fight this battle on your own...or even in a group. 
You *must* have My power,  
My anointing,  
My leadings, 
(and) My voice to guide you.



Do not treat this enemy lightly. 
Yes, he is under My feet, *but*...he still is very masterful in his evil. 
You cannot possibly fight him on your own. 
This is *very* dangerous. 
Many have fallen in this area of warfare.



Think of a weak, defenseless sheep...
 coming against a strong, crafty wolf. 
This is no match. 
The vulnerable sheep will be slaughtered. 
*But*...now think of the Shepherd...
watching over His sheep. 
He can scare off the wolf. 
He can protect His sheep. 
*He* has the power -and the wisdom- to keep His flock safe and free from the wolf. 
This is Me. 
I am the Shepherd.



In a little while, we'll be together in the 'eternal sheepfold'. Meanwhile, you must contend for the faith. 
Contend (defend and fight for) for Me...for Truth. 
Raise the banners high: 
banners of truth, 
love 
and righteousness. 
Remember (that) righteousness without love is like the Pharisees. 
Legalistic. 
Mean-spirited.



Raise the banner of life: of My Life...of My freedom! 
Seek to be truthful - in love - in all your daily matters. 
Seek truth and seek to make things right. 
Seek to forgive and to build up things broken down. 
Seek to restore...seek to heal. 
Seek to deliver. 
Seek Me. 
Seek Me: the fountain of life!




Seek Me daily...
for each day is another revelation of My love and My grace."

MESSAGE "A Vain Show"

"Without Me you can do nothing.


-pause-


You are My dependent. You depend on Me. I am the Vine, you are the branches. Your life is contingent upon Me.

Without Me you would die.

My life force is My Spirit. It is given to you...to all who come to Me.  He (The Spirit) is My life, expressed to you.  He makes Me alive and real to you. I am He.

So many go on without Me. They play a game that is all theirs. I am nowhere to be found. I am not in their midst. Many loudly proclaim Me...yet totally disregard Me. They lack Spirit.

They are dead men walking. Corpses. Moving skeletons. Bags of stale air. They are putrefying before your eyes. Still, they persist.

Such men make a fool and a mockery of Me...and My Spirit. They bellow out grandiose proclamations and screeching prayers. I have not sent them, yet they go on. Their foolishness will soon be apparent. I will not be mocked. It is a dangerous thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Some tempt Me. They try My powers. They fail. They speak of miracles, yet produce none. Covering up their deceptions, they put blame on the sick and the oppressed. I will not be mocked.


-pause-


'Send forth the clowns! Bring in the jesters!' This is the show of the day; the production of the hour. Let us party and laugh, while the masses suffer.
Tell another joke, another clever story! Tickle the ears. Put salve on the wicked. Let all be a cooperative commotion. Party on! Let the music play on. All in 'the name of the Lord'.
*sarcasm


-pause-


As you assemble together, it is in vain. It is a vain (useless) show. It is unto man, and his hollow traditions. It is amazing how far these man-pleasers will go! Just like the 'Emperor's New Clothes'! Everything done to please the man, the ministry, the church, the denomination.Where is (The) *GOD* in all this?

Putting on airs, putting on a grand show...for WHO? Who is the charade for? What is the reason for such showmanship? for such eloquence? for such religious monotony? It is certainly not for Me, says the Lord.


*******


I am angry. Yes. I am enraged. Am I angry at all the sinners? No. I love them. I see their hearts, and their woundedness. I am furious with those who use My name for themselves... for their own purposes; their personal benefit. I am not a genie. The cross symbol is not an amulet. I am not (just) a *good luck* charm. I am God. I am Jesus. I am Holy Spirit. I am The Holy Ghost.


-pause-


To those who are still able to hear Me...I say 'Repent'...change....turn from what you believe, from your false lives. I see what you are...what you think...why you lie. I see men's hearts....I know your very thought before it is conceived. I am infallible...I am not one of your golden calves. Listen...if you still can. Seek Me while I may be found. Go to the narrow road...the ways not taken...search for Me...let your words be few. Be quick to hear and slow to speak.


Judge not and you will not be judged. In the ways you judge and condemn others...those same ways will be tested in your own lives. You always judge according to appearances...but that is not Me! I see the hearts...the past life...the circumstances brought upon My people...and the oppression.


The oppression is often hidden from view; hidden from public. I see it all. I see the captive hearts, the crying hours, the silent pain, the words spoken in fear. I see the hurts, the traumas, the accidents, the errors, the failures, the endless problems, the addictions and the desires. I see the lost. The empty hearts. The lonely. The empty souls...the lies.


-pause-


Some of you hide your real selves. Many of you do this. I know. It takes courage to be real, to be vulnerable, to be free of man's ways...to be free of religion. Let go, let go. I am here to catch you when you fall. But...you may struggle for some time. I have the right timing...the best for you.


My ways are not your ways, neither are they man's ways. I am not in the wind of religion, not the race of the politician. I am above the earth, yet I am involved in your lives...if you follow Me...and not human theory. I see the beginning, the middle and the end. I am Alpha and Omega. I was, I am and I am to come. I am timeless.


Let yourself succumb to My house...to My protocol...to My house rules. Let go, leave, run away...from the chains and shackles of religion and earthly endeavors (actions, activities).


For each of you, for any of you, who read this and may try to follow Me...I will see... and will be ready to help you along your path, your way. I am worth the search, however lengthy or difficult it may prove.

Seek Me now, says the Lord. "

MESSAGE "God will Cut Down The Proud"

"The Lord resists the proud...
the haughty will be brought down...
the high looks will be cast down....
I, the Lord, desire a people; 
a people who look not to their own interests, 
but to those around them. 

Did I not give up My life and take on the form of a servant?


Do not My people- who call themselves by My name- do they not seek a servant's heart? 
I came not to be served, but to serve others.

Remember how I reached out to the man with the withered hand?  
How I made the blind to see? 
How the woman with the issue of blood was made whole? 
Did I not come to seek and to save the ones that are lost? 
Am I not the Friend that sticks closer than a brother?


*******


I see all. 
I know all. 
Listen to My voice through My servant. (servants)
Heed My voice. 
I desire a broken heart...
a heart broken before Me...
I desire weeping...
coming to Me alone. 

You sing to me about things you know not.
You say you want a clean heart, but do you really? 
Confess your true desires to Me. 
I already know them. 
You need not put on falsity and religion for Me. 
I see through your religion. 
I want a people that is real, that is willing to be honest before Me.


*******


Judge not, and you will not be judged. 
So many of you assume you are the judge: 
you (think, assume to) make up the rules. 

There is only one Judge...do you not fear Him? 
Take out the beam that is in your own eye,  
before you speak of the speck in your brother's eye.

Those who say they are without sin: you are deceived. 
Remember, your heart is wicked and deceitful above all things, 
and *your* righteousness is as filthy rags. 
Let your hearts be sprinkled with the blood of Christ...
the blood that washes you from all sin. 

Humble yourselves before Me.


*******


Do not fear man...what can he do to you? 
Rather, fear the One who is able to cast your soul and body into hell. 
The fear of man is a snare. 
Have I not chosen the weak, 
the poor, 
the foolish, 
the outcasts of this world...
for My purposes? 
to confound the world?

My wisdom is foolishness in man's eyes...
(and) man's wisdom is foolishness to Me. 
A foolish man is wise in his own eyes. 
Boast not of yourselves, 
for without Me, 
you can do nothing!

Trust not in flattery or enticing words, 
for they are deceitful and will lead you astray. 
Let the wicked forsake her way. 
Let the arrogant repent and come forth as a cleansed vessel.


*******


Some of you forget Me days without end...
yet I wait for you each day. 
I am grieved, I am grieved.


*******


Let your hearts break before Me. 
As you go (on) with your day's activites, 
I will be there calling to you, 
reminding you that you are Mine...
and I have called you out of darkness.

Can you ignore Me still? 
One day I will not speak so clearly...
you will cry to hear My voice, yet I will not answer.

Seek Me *now*, says the Lord."

"A little leaven leavens the whole lump. What does this mean?, you ask.


Leaven symbolizes sin. Sin is like poison. Put a drop of (potent) poison in a drink and it will contaminate, or poison, the entire drink. One drop will do it.


One sip of poison will kill you, as it spreads thoughout your entire body. So it is with sin.


Sin WILL eventually (some sooner, some later) sicken and destroy your body. It is vicious, evil, unrelenting, diabolical and strong. Sin is Satan's playground.


*******


Sin opens the doors to the Devil. Sin will bring you down: either suddenly, or bit-by-bit; piece-by-piece. Often, it is a subtle, time-consuming process. It is a gradual slipping away. It is an ever-increasing apathy. It is a growing deadness and hardness of heart.


When sin is tolerated, it softens (weakens) the conscience: it makes right seem wrong and wrong seem right. Your conscience will be worn away; eroded into apathy and *tolerance*.


Tolerance, or acceptance, is a dangerous concept. It say *anything goes* and *to each his own* and mocks the Word of God. It mocks Jesus Christ.


It mocks the reality of forgiveness, the sin nature, redemption, and salvation.


*******


No doubt, there IS sin. There IS Satan. There IS self. These three are bad for you.


Of course, there IS mercy. There IS grace. There IS forgiveness. And there IS deliverance.


But...in order to truly receive these gifts from the Father, one must be abased: become humble and broken before Him. He cannot mold a hard heart. He cannot, and will not, come against your will. It is your choice.


He is not willing that ANY should perish, or fall away. He will save to the uttermost: the farthest, worst-case scenarios. He will rescue the farthest sinner. (the worst).


But, He will not be mocked. He is Holy. He is true. He is love. And He is justice. He upholds His Word. He loves you, but hates your sin. He wants you to realize the evil of your sin.


He wants you to HATE your sin (or sins), like He does. He is good. He wants the best for you: for all of you.


*******

Come before Him in humility. This is not the last time He will plead with you...but you can never be sure of YOUR opportunities. NOW is the day of salvation.


Come to Him, now: just as you are. Filthy, sin-filled, lust-filled, corrupt, unclean, addicted, wasted, lazy, slanderous, jealous, hateful, spiteful, fearful, cowardly, manipulating, greedy, controlling, blasphemous,


evil, devilish, full of occult, ful of fantasy, full of pornography, full of racist thoughts, full of insanity, depressed, schizophrenic, bipolar, psychotic, possessed, gossippers, whisperers, mutterers;
sorcerers, witches, psychics, Masons, Mormons, Jehovah Witnesses, atheists, agnostics, religious spirits, proud attitudes, traditional, denominational, Indian-mystics,
gluttons, mean-spirited, angry, rage-filled people:
all of you fit in some of these categories.


You are ALL selfish at times. Much change is needed. (A revolution in the Spirit, perhaps?)


Enough for now: think on these things. They are for your benefit. Be warned, be helped, be loved. I love you, My children. I care for you. ---


*Dad*. "

MESSAGE "Through The Fire" (For the Few Who Don't 'Fit In' )

"Think it not strange concerning the fiery trial you are enduring.


It is a thing of My doing ... 
it is My way for you at this moment, this time.
It will pass, do not fret.


-pause-


Since time began, I have tested My servants.
I have stretched their faith ... 
their strength ... 
their physical limits ... 
their loyalty ... 
their love.



I need to see who will listen to Me ... 
who will go the extra mile ... 
who will seek Me when it is rough ... 
who is *for Me *, 
despite extreme adversity.



I need to know.


I need to know who is *on the Lord's side* ... who is on *My team*.


5:03am
-pause-


So, again, consider it not strange when you go through these *strange* times ... 
these times of unrest ... 
of turmoil ... 
of affliction ... 
of barrenness (in the spirit) ...
these seemingly *horrible* times. 
They are for your good.



Yes, you see ... all ... ALL things will indeed work (out) FOR your good.
In the end, you will know and you will see.
ALL will know. 
ALL will see.



You will be rewarded in My day of reward.

I am thrilled and delighted to see My children beside Me, even now ... 
even with enduring such pain and isolation.




Many are called ... but few are chosen. 
Do you feel *chosen*? 
If you are close to Me, you will not feel chosen
 ... you will feel forsaken.
It is a dichotomy ... an opposite in the spirit. 
When you are clinging to Me (your Savior) ... 
you will (often, usually) then feel rejection.


Rejection by the world ... 
rejection from family ... 
from friends ... 
from church ...
from society in general.



My *called out* ones will not be able to *fit* nicely into the fabric of the world.
They will NOT fit in.
Please try to understand this.



If you have given up the world, the ways of the world (including religion) ... 
then you are on a narrow course ... 
a *strange* path ... 
an untraveled road ... 
a very, very lonely path.


*******


Few are able. 
Few are able to comprehend this way, 
this path, 
this life, 
this solitude, 
this mourning, 
this intensity, 
this rejected lifestyle.  
It is not for all.



Few can last. 
Few will survive (this lifestyle).
It is not for the general population.
It is a specialized, 
traumatic, 
pain-filled, 
often-treacherous way of devotion.



Some will try to live this way ... 
this quiet life ... 
this life of the Spirit. 
It is NOT for the weak-of-heart ... 
unless they are going to give it all over to Me, 
the One who can bring justice and comfort.



I am the Comforter. 
I am the SPIRIT inside you ... 
the One who gives you unparalleled peace amidst the turmoils.


Yes, yes ... you will endure great pain, 
intense hardship, 
unequaled loneliness ... 
BUT, I will reward! 
I will repay! 
I will avenge!
I will be close!
I will comfort, as NO OTHER.


*******



You know this. 
You know Me.
(If you are among My chosen, 
afflicted, 
storm-tossed ones ... 
you know. 
You know deep in your soul, that you are Mine.)



5:17am
-pause-



The greater the evil, the greater the light.
The more you suffer, the more you will be comforted.
One day you will see clearly ... 
(and) you will realize My intense love for you.



I have never *given up* on you, My daughter (My son) ...
My precious one.
I am with you ALWAYS , even unto the end. 
I will indeed (truly, really) carry you, 
even unto your old age.
I will not abandon ... 
(even) if I do *hide* Myself at times.



Yes, I do put you through times of testings:  of My *hiding*.
I appear to be gone ... 
to be absent ... 
to be *in hiding*. 
I may hide My face from you, for a season ...
yet, I am with you.
It is a testing, a trial.


-pause-



When chaos comes, run to Me.
Call to Me. 
Cry to Me.
I will hear.
I will be near. 
I will be close by. 
I will be with you ... 
you will sense My nearness.


-pause-
5:22am


Leaders are often alone ... 
are often lonely. 
Few (will) understand. 
Few will feel the leader's pain. 
It is a difficult road to walk.
Leaders are often pioneers, breaking new ground, doing new things, saying (the) hard things.



A leader will have to say hard sayings ... hard-to-understand words ... (give) difficult messages.
It is the burden of the leader.



If you are an innovator ... 
a leader ... 
a pioneer ... 
a *trail blazer*, 
then you will NOT be understood. 
You will be ostracized (isolated/rejected/shunned) ... (and) you will be mocked, ridiculed, harshly criticized ... (and) you will be lonely.
You will be alone for much of your journey ... for most of your life.



Even when (you) are with other people, you will (often/usually) feel alone.


-pause-


Despite all the *negatives* of being a leader ...
there are definite *positives*. 
It will be worth it all!
You will enjoy great satisfaction one day!



You will feel My presence as few can ... 
you will know Me as few will (to) ... 
you will have knowledge of the HOLY that few possess .... 
you will be closer to Me than you have ever been before ... 
yes, it will all be worth it. 
You will see.


-pause-
5:30am


So ... fear not, fear not.
Don't worry; don't be anxious.
Listen to Me .... I am near now.
I am your confidante ... yes, I am here. 
Love Me."








{A special message for a few ... those who strive - against all odds- to follow Him (Jesus/Holy Spirit) ... and have lost all ... the ones who are misunderstood.}







I Peter 4:12 "Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:..."

Job 23:10 "But He knows the way that I take; when He has tested me, I will come forth as gold.... When He has tried me, I shall come forth like gold.... " Romans 8:28 "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called ... according to His purpose." Isaiah 53:3 "He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid -as it were- our faces from Him; He was despised, and we esteemed Him not." II Timothy 3:12 "Yes, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution." (Writer's note: persecution can come in many different forms: physical, illness, discouragement, rejection, despair, isolation, rejection, demonic, spiritual attack, mental torment, afflictions, etc.) Psalm 34:19 "Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all." II Corinthians 12:7 "And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure." (This indicates demonic attack, --allowed by God -- for the purpose of humility.... to maintain a humbleness, despite great supernatural revelations /experiences.) * supernatural words (*spiritually dictated*) on 3/2/2013 @5am
