It Is the Changing of the Guard!

The arrows will indicate the new boundaries that are beyond you, for I AM sending you, says the LORD.

To those who hear, let them hear what the Spirit says to the Church.

Your seat at Saul’s table will ever be empty.  I shall send confirmation through three prophetic arrows.

The arrows will indicate the new boundaries that are beyond you, for I AM sending you, says the LORD.

The motive behind the house of Saul’s anger is provoked by jealousy.  The spirit of Saul says, “as long as the house of David lives upon the earth, my kingdom will not be established.”

This is very important to understand!  There are those within the house of Saul who grieve over the treatment of the house of David.

Is not the arrows beyond you?

Make speed, stay not!  There will be three arrows and three bows of submissions.

Go, for the LORD has sent you beyond!

Love is as strong as death and jealousy is as hard and cruel as a grave.

“Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm: for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame,”   Song of Solomon 8:6 KJV.

“But if I say thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows are beyond thee; go thy way: for the LORD hath sent thee away,”   1 Samuel 20:22.

Study: 1 Samuel 20:1-42.

Alliances, Alignment and Accuracy

His military and religious actions were successful, as the fear of the LORD fell upon all. None made war with him. He brought the nation back, at least formally, to “the God of their fathers.”

There was once a very good king.  He was outstanding in the way in which he was head of state.  He heartily embraced faith in God.  His heart was courageous in the ways of My Spirit and he set his heart to seek My face.

He went out among the people, from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim, and brought the people back to the LORD, the God of their fathers.

In military policy, he believed in the time of peace to prepare for war.  His military and religious actions were successful, as the fear of the LORD fell upon all.  None made war with him.  He brought the nation back, at least formally, to “the God of their fathers.”

Although personally loyal to his faith and pure of life and motive, his greatest failures lay in the precise areas of his greatest success; International relations and religious reformations.

He could not root out the unlawful.  His diplomacy by alliance into intermarriage with the house of Ahab and Jezebel brought all his gains to ruin within a few years of his death.

The poisonous effect of that union, became an arrangement that was very expensive to Judah; The king supported with treasure and manpower to fund Ahab’s wars.

The king assisted in at least two fruitless campaigns with the kings of Israel.  He suffered personal physical peril, and spiritual loss to himself and his kingdom.  This was an ill conceived policy.

His name was “Jehovah judges” or King Jehoshaphat.

I the LORD have brought you to the valley of Jehoshaphat and I shall judge you in this valley of decision.

Corrupt alliances by deceit have come to prostitute and ride on your anointing.  To prostitute your oil and wine they gain victory and prestige.  Their numbers are great, they love a crowd.  They corrupt your goodness by flattery.  They take the advantage for their own personal gain.  As I live says God, I tell you the truth, I wouldn’t even look the way of these corrupt flatterers, but because I honor your life, I will speak!

I know your works and I know your faith with patience.  I see all your works and the last ones being more than the first.  But I have this against you, you let the spirit of Jezebel do what she wants and that unrestrained.

She says that she is a prophetess, but she is leading my people away with her teaching.  A teaching of religious mixture!  Her teaching sickens me with it’s sugar sweet appeal, but in every way it is dangerous poison to My sheep.

I AM warning My people of factions who spread poisons.  There is an intentional deception with Jezebel to gain spiritual power through poison by seeking to gain approachable leaders who are weak in faith and in MY Word.

I have given those time to change and turn away from her sin.  But she does not want to change nor do those who are engaged with this spirit.  Those who partake of her deeds and teaching will suffer greatly and the blind shall fall into a ditch.

Make no unholy alliances with those of given to change.  I have said to KNOW those who labor among you, and that takes time.  Tests and errors.  Known and then well known.  Which will it be?  Be hasty and miss the way, or take the needed effort to get to know those who are among you well.

When you come into alignment with those given to change, your calamity shall rise suddenly and ruin you both.  These things will be known and belong to the wise.  When you say to the wicked, you are righteous how can you say something is good when it is bad and evil!  Be not conned.  Be not conformed to this world, but transformed by renewing your mind.

The chasm is widening, time is increasing and the masses are pressuring wanting the easy route.  Do not be pressured and do not lay hands suddenly on any man releasing them into anything they want.  If you do this being in agreement and associated with it; You shall be known as you are known.  There is major changing and I AM elevating and establishing My leaders.  This is the work of MY Spirit.

Be living epistles seen and read of all men.  MY Leaders have nothing to hide and they live a more public role.  Check and re check with what you associate and make alliances with, for you will be known by associations.

Time is moving fast and many false prophet, false leader of all types are being mobilized with very little known about them.  Time does tell all things and be sure to know those who are among you well.  Take your time and do not be intimidated.  Let them call you religious, you will be proven to many to be accurate and to line up with MY Word.  Protect the weak, guard and defend My sheep and lambs, says the LORD.

Deceit, Declare and Devotion

In the lowly and humble place they see themselves and choose to find My face in the message of grace. For mercy triumphs over judgment. Many hearts will hear and see the danger of only making some things clear.

The LORD woke me up early to a very solemn and intense sense of his will.  I sat up and took warning.  I can only write what HE gives me and I will answer for all I am accountable and held responsible to do.
Love,
Sister Sherry.

 

Hear what the Sovereign LORD says:

“Do you realize that the relationship and fellowship I desire for you, I have longed for?  I call you to come away, come away My beloved.  I tenderly and eagerly await for the moments we spend together in such intimate embrace.

My love never ceases, it never comes to an end, however also in My love I warn you and choose to correct you.

You have offended My Spirit by just going through the motions in our relationship.  How sad it feels to know I AM not first place in your heart.  How would it be if I only responded to you in some kind of mechanical process.  My people are not on an assembly line.

I AM drawing those who are so precious to me in intimacy and those who are learning how to lean against the tide of human opinion;  Staying close to My heart has always been the right place to start.

I AM not as an employer whom you work for.  Even works become idolatry when you put them first.  Do you realize I get jealous over your time?  I long for the times we shared so intimately.  I call for you in the cool night seasons and early morning light; where have you gone, my sweet banner of love and light?

Do you know it hurts Me when you put me last?  Now you say with such urgency, “There is not enough time, I have work to do!”  You hurt My feelings when you quench My Spirit.  You forget, you are made in My image and I authored such feelings in man.

Because I have loved you with an everlasting love, I must speak……..

In MY kingdom there is a plot and most devious spot gone unaware.  Listen as I address your heart.

Your pride has blinded you; like brilliant shiny armor, you glory among yourselves not realizing you are all blind in the midst of doing MY works?  You and others trust in your splendor, your excellent reasoning, and wisdom beyond your years?  In doing so called works, you have become the answer to everyone’s problems it seems.  Yourselves leading them along the way as you release toxic details unnoticed.  However I see.  I AM aware.

You think in counting and numbers that surely a good reward comes!  You have slid on the most toxic spot, the sins of pride, arrogance and haughtiness.  Being caught up in seeming victory, and shining light gleaming, covers a most sinister plot and plan.

Before you can even reason or wonder, “Could this be me he is talking about?”  The words are quickly stopped and come to a halt!

Surrounded by many who seem the same, you call My name.  I still beckon you to come aside, but you are too busy to heed what is ahead.

I reveal a diabolical web so sinister in plan, to take such a worthy cause and bring it down with one hand.  And who leads the plan?  The enemy is at hand!  As Satan, was thrown down and one third of angels too, so you are deceived too.

“I am so sorry I cannot meet your high standards, please have mercy on us today,” the lowly and humble say.  The Superior religious rider goes on with a commanding voice demanding that all come into order or they would loose their place.  Leaving the innocent and lowly, they march in gait.

The proud Religious with such high standards, make it impossible for the lowly to know how they can really know the love of a good Father.  So no matter how hard they try, It can never satisfy.  How long do you think I will allow such deception among my ranks to continue?

You can be deceived when you are drawn away through mans opinions.  Even a seemingly humble soul who never makes a mistake still sleeps the same way as they.

There are those among you that think because they work in ministry they are far from deceptive ways.  Do you see that good can be evil when done among those whose titles precede themselves?  Even in the midst of prayer, fasting and religious works, all can be done under the title of the highly anointed of God!

Such religious tradition, judgmentalism and criticism.  Such disrespect to the core to find a hub secure?  There are so many pretenders! Watch them and listen to their story for awhile.  Don’t worry about what people think, look to yourselves!  Concern yourselves with what I think!

What shall I say when I tumble you down the hill of strategy into a place of revealing?  Then you will know My ways!  It is not the noble and diligent that proceed in My clan, but those by the power of My own hand!

In the lowly and humble place they see themselves and choose to find My face in the message of grace.  For mercy triumphs over judgment. Many hearts will hear and see the danger of only making some things clear.

For those whose hearts are set; I have set new boundaries for those who have past the test!  I have found those who are innocent when they least expect!  For these shall have more authority, more power and greater influence!

I AM elevating those who have been reserved for such a time as this.  Boundaries have extended and higher step too, only by grace and mercy do you slip into such a sure place.

Those who have been broken to such a degree, have found that all they need is MY security.  Even if all reject them in the end of this saga, the truth remains, these will be those left standing on that day! Rejoice beloved!  Your set time has come says the LORD!”

“I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, until he please.  Who is this that cometh up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved?  I raised thee up under the apple tree; there thy mother brought thee forth: there she brought thee forth that bare thee.  Set me as a seal upon thine heart, as a seal upon thine arm; for love is strong as death; jealousy is cruel as the grave; the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame.  Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it; if a man would give all the substance of his house for love, it would utterly be contemned,”   Song of Songs 8:4-7 KJV.

The Remnant Call to Stand

It is imperative that you must learn to understand this and to discern spirits in this new place and phase. It is also true that the enemy seeks to gain entrance in your lives using false motives.

Hear the Word of The LORD:

“You have entered a new place and phase in My purposes and you are unsure of many things.  There have been some that have been enlarged and elevated.  You have been concerned because it seems like many who you know, are not willing to go; It seems they have been cut off from your life.  You have even grieved over it.

Truly there are some who have pulled away themselves and some I have pulled away and I have removed.  It doesn’t necessarily mean the others are bad, it just means that not all can go with you.

It is imperative that you must learn to understand this and to discern spirits in this new place and phase.  It is also true that the enemy seeks to gain entrance in your lives using false motives.

Not everyone who says LORD, LORD is right with me.  There are many tares, goats and wolves among My people.  These can say all the right things even quote scriptures and seem like they are good, but I know the heart condition.  You must learn to discern and totally trust me,” says The LORD.

In these last days you must be willing to stand for The LORD and against tyranny.  We the people of God and those whom we associate with, must know those in whom we want to represent us.  The chasm is growing and no more gray areas.  We are to put no confidence in the flesh.  Seek God and put no trust in man.

It is dangerous when people do nothing and are not heard.  Had Germany stepped up to the plate and confronted Hitler, there may have never been a Nazi Germany.  Had Germany heard and acted on all the signs of danger, there may have never been that dictators war on the Jews and world.

“The remnant calling is becoming more narrow.  Don’t be unsure concerning numbers of people but rather have great joy that I have connected you with My agenda and purpose.  Do not connect yourselves to others for the sake of numbers, but be connected with Me by My Spirit,”  says The LORD.

How many of us would wait on God if our ministry were for one man?  The motive of counting sheep or numbers can get us tripped up.  The amount of people who are with you is not a indicator that they all are for you.

Jesus during his ministry for three years had the twelve disciples that knew him in an intimate way day by day.  What happened to the ones who were fed the five thousand, where did they all go?

Even in the end, who remained faithful to the bitter end?  Judas hung himself for his role and betrayal in capturing Jesus, for thirty pieces of silver.  Peter denied and rejected Jesus when the cock crowed.

Look at all the disciples that went running away during his Crucifixion.  Jesus poured himself out into his disciples for three years.  They were closely gathered in a small group they watched the miracles and the Lords actions and lifestyle.  (See Matthew 16).

Still today, we look at the numbers of people involved in so called Christian ministry and nothing has changed.  Many are called, few are chosen.  God gives every person the freedom of choice to choose yes and choose to say no.  God seeks those who willingly want to love him, worship and adore him.  These are those who love him and his presence.

There shall be a greater movement in America and other nations where groups of smaller groups will be visited by a sovereign move of the Holy Spirit.  It takes discipline to be a disciple.  And it takes much tribulation to walk out the God given office of Apostle and other offices.  These things are not easy. It will cost you everything.

“You cannot know a person unless you choose to get to know them.  It takes time to know those who labor among you.  Yes a quick work I AM doing in the earth, and I AM cutting it short because of righteousness sake.

You cannot hide your heads in the sand any longer.  For those who must take a stand for Me, must stay prepared; It will cost everything in your lives.  Persecution of My people is already happening in other nations.  Do you think I will simply pass by America?  Those who have been given much, much is required and you reap what you sow.

To those who can see; I am showing you clearly My remnant.  Do not connect yourselves to others out of pressure of mans agenda and popularity.  Wait upon me as I bring you into precious balance of one heart, mind and spirit.

It takes time to really know those among you.  You are noticing recently, that I AM making you very discerning.  Not just anyone can go with you into My agenda and path for your life.

My beloved is seen as living epistles seen and read of all men.  When you stand before others in My name, you have made yourselves readily known.  To live in Christ and to die is gain.  Anytime you take a stance for Me, you open yourselves up to religious and demonic persecution.

To My beloved, boundaries have been enlarged and elevated.  With your elevation, KNOW that you are hearing me clearly.  As you abide in me in relationship, you shall notice how well you hear from me.  You are stepping up to a higher place.  Yes, boundaries are larger and you can sense the openness of extensions;  with this comes more of My authority.

I AM entrusting those with more authority and power, a greater influence for good.  Don’t you discern it?  There are those who are in this new place trusting me with fervent heated conviction.

Can you tell the gentle breeze blowing through your hair as you notice walls have been removed outwardly from east and west?  However you need to know that there is more opposition and stay strong in Me” says The LORD.

“I AM redeeming the time as the days are evil.  A quick work will I do in the earth with those who open up to Me fully.

I have given you the power of influence.  Do you not realize as you have sought Me there have been those given a rock of offense?  Those who fall upon My rock shall be broken, but woe unto those whom the rock falls on, for they shall be crushed to powder.

Put no confidence in the flesh of yourselves or any man.  Commit yourselves to faithful men who will be able to teach others well.  It takes time to know a person.  This is not a shake and bake with the easy bake oven.  I AM elevating you to a place of maturity.

A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.  Commit yourselves to faithful servants, and keep My secrets until the time.  Not everyone can understand your ways.

Be aware of those who seek recognition, who walk in pride and double mindedness.  Avoid those who are given to change and titles that wish to flatter you.  A flattering mouth works ruin,” says The LORD.

“Elijah was a man like you are, but ran away from Jezebel in fear of his life after such a total victory in Israel.  Elijah had to pull back and find his way as many of you are doing.

Elijah thought he was the only one left in Israel who loved ME, and I The LORD told him, that he had seven thousand that had not bowed to Baal.”  (See 1 Kings 19).

So in this time, many are hidden and coming into a new phase of ministry.  Elijah was told to leave the cave with orders from God.  Elijah was told to anoint and release Elisha to be prophet when Elijah died.

Some of you have thought you were all alone as Elijah, yet God has many that are faithful that are hidden and these will not bow their knee to any other god.

“But what saith the answer of God unto him?  I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal,”   Romans 11:4 KJV.

Vision:

I saw myself and a few others standing on a red rug.  All the sudden, the enemy took hold of the red rug and pulled it out from under us.

The enemies mission was to pull the red rug out from under us and cause a very hard fall.  Instead of us falling on the red rug, we stood standing even though the red rug was pulled out from under us, we remained steadfast and standing.

I heard this Word:  “For what satan meant for evil, God has chosen to turn it all around for good.”

“Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.  And the things that thous has heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thous to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.  Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.  No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.  And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully. The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits,”   2 Timothy 2:1-6 KJV.
