Growth: The Process to His Stature

Discipleship Is proven all over the Bible.  You may have run away from your instructor because you were afraid; by running away you delay the opportunity.

Sometimes when we have done all we can do, we stand.  Speaking of winds though, I can see the finger of God ever so gently touch a spot of ocean with his fingertip and he can cause oceans to be various states of current.

Even as the LORD is wanting us to be current with his winds of change….  Even the waves and winds obey him….

The old order of King Saul took upon himself to do the sacrifice.  King Saul was supposed to wait for the prophet to do the sacrifice.  He disobeyed and did it anyway for the people and that was another symptom that he and his kingdom was horribly, spiritually sick.

Discipleship Is proven all over the Bible.  You may have run away from your instructor because you were afraid; by running away you delay the opportunity.

People want instant discipleship.  However after Discipleship 101 starts many run.  The truth is, that very few want discipleship when they truly come face to face with it.

Can you face a godly instructors correction and tests?

God has been speaking a lot to me about extreems, excess and many YES men.  Even among our peers there is found NO accountability or responsibility.

They want to experience the wild without the wilderness they want experiences for making themselves look good, but it is all self preservation.  They measure themselves among themselves.

If we were on the ship, the ship would show us we are out of balance, and the ship could sink if we do not refocus on the LORD to bring balance and order.  We need to use our spiritual compass.  Even an airplane’s altimeter reads height above Mean Sea Level (MSL),

I heard sirens going off everywhere. I felt a major shaking as I heard these things.  I literally heard these sounds with my ears and felt it too.

I live in the mountains.  It was so surreal to hear it going all around me.  However there were no sirens nothing but peace, yet I was hearing it from the north, south, east and west.

There will be sirens as he warns us ahead of time to prepare his beloved bride and he is at the very door.  God’s spirit will not always strive with man.

All of this word the LORD comforted and convicted me.  As I read this, I needed to KNOW I was truly hearing the LORD.  Now as I am seeing this fresh again, clearly, I could see what is happening in the U.S.A.

Vision:

I see a huge web and two people entangled in the traps.  The spider wants to ensnare you and then suck the life out of you.

Do not listen to too many people.  A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.  None of us are perfect and we shouldn’t expect it completely out of others either.

If you were honest with yourself, you know your life and if you are hot, cold or lukewarm.

Is He your first love?

We cannot trust even our very selves at times.  God knows the thoughts of our heart, even motives we don’t even know.

We can trust no one, but God. If we abide in the LORD he will give us instructions; And through others too. We cannot trust media. Our focus is to be fixed on HIM. Chaos is rampant but we must watch out for each other even more.

It’s not about cheerleaders! We are not to judge by accolades of men or who is famous or anointed.  He has called YOU to know him too.  We have a type of homing device build into our Spiritual DNA; as we yield to the still, small, voice He will direct your path.  If it is too dark, He gives lamps.

“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path,”  Psalms 119:105 KJV.

Jesus was not moved by opinions of man, he was only moved by what his father said. Jesus would not go around crowds or numbers, circumstance or hang out with clique and club, he was aligned to the Father’s will.

We are born naked and we die naked. We can’t take anything with us except what is written on heavens scrolls.  The LORD was abandoned by Father God and when God turned away from Jesus, our sins became atoned for. Once and for all.

“And not only so, but we also joy in God through our LORD Jesus Christ, by who we have now received the atonement,”   Romans 5:11 KJV.

Leaders, if you know those under you and they don’t want to grow up it is time to push people away, don’t let them depend on you.

Always point their answers to the LORD.  Pushing people away will make them want to remain for their desire to Jesus.

Elijah pushed Elisha away, giving him choice.  A person that is ready for mentoring and instructions will see the vision and if necessary give all away to follow.

The revelation is so strong that even when it appears to be in a seemingly offensive tone, they won’t move.  Elijah gave Elisha plenty of room to say no even though God had told him about Elisha, Elisha still had to choose and follow.  It will cost you to follow Jesus but it is so worth it.

“So he departed thence, and found elisha the son of Shaphat, who was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen before him, and he with the twelfth; and Elijah passed by him, and cast his mantle upon him and he left the oxen, and ran after Elijah, and said, Let me, I pray thee, kiss my father and my mother, and then I will follow thee. And he said unto him, God back again; for what have I done to thee?  And he returned back from him, and took yoke of oxen, and slew them and boiled their flesh with the instruments of the oxen, and gave unto the people, and they did eat, then he arose, and went after Elijah, and ministered unto him,”   1 Kings 19:19-21 KJV.

The LORD has given us the gift of choice; He will allow us to do whatever we choose. Remember choice makes you accountable to God for all your choices.

Our mentors and coaches, train us in Life lessons.  These are such good teachers to show us how we fail desperately, because we finally see how far away we really are from maturity and HIS perfection!  That revelation will revolutionize your life!

Perfection was never attainable in this life in body.  That is why Jesus gave up his place and took ours. He knew there had to be an exchange because humans can never be good enough.

Vision:

I had a vision of a huge red and white tricycle, and there was a man in the seat in a three piece suit.  The problem was the man couldn’t do anything with the tricycle, because he was very small like as tall as a Ken Barbie doll.

That is my point.  God will teach you and he doesn’t expect you to do something if you don’t fit it yet.

He knows how far we need to go.  As long as we continue to be malleable, teachable and humble God can do great things in us.

Divine Takeover & Rising of MY Chosen Ones

As I was praying, another prayer warrior and myself saw the darkest and most foreboding clouds coming closer.

As I was praying, another prayer warrior and myself saw the darkest and most foreboding clouds coming closer.

While the clouds brought a sense of fear and terror, the scene changed and in the midst of the dark clouds and foreboding, many warriors began to emerge from the darkness of the storm clouds, clothed with brilliant armor that shown the light from within their hearts.

The glory that radiated from their faces and armor revealed the depth of afflictions that these brave warriors suffered through to make them rise in the midst of gross darkness.

The darkness became the catalyst of the rising of the sons of God in glory.  I saw in the midst of the clouds hail being formed.  The hail started small but as it was tossed into the winds over and over, I noticed the hail had warriors faces on them.

The faces grew with more determination and authority as the hail was tossed higher and higher into the storm clouds.  Soon the weight of that hail was such that the storm could not contain the hail, at which point the hail began to fall to the earth and did much damage to the enemy.

I knew the determination and boldness in the faces of these warriors was something that had never been seen before or would never be seen again.

These warriors were clothed with authority and determination that only came through the victories of previous campaigns.  These were tested, severely and were promoted to heavenly places, to stand as judges and to reclaim the territories that had been held for generations.  These were chosen to see, hear and speak judgments to the enemy’s plans and entrenchment.

I saw a massive amount of enemy POWs all standing in line with their arms up as they shuffled before these judges.  The judges would pronounce a verdict and cancel their assignments then cast them into outer darkness, forbidding them to return.

Hear what the sovereign Lord says; all the people of the land tremble, for the day of the Lord is coming.  This day is a day of darkness and gloom.  A day of invasion, a day of great tribulations.  Thick darkness shall rise but My chosen ones, the valiant, shall rise with strength that has never been known.

Great tribulations bring great patience.  In patience possess your souls.  My judgments are just and fair and I have decreed circumstances to turn many over to the destruction of their flesh that their souls, (mind, will, emotions and intellect) would be saved.  That they would change their minds and turn to Me and repent.

Judgments in this life are for mercy to mankind, so that through circumstances they might be delivered from the pathway, which is destruction.

I AM pursuing the wayward and the obstinate.  I AM judging My house, I AM bringing the backslider home through the iron furnace.  I have sent My judgments as mercy so man will be ready to stand at the final judgment.

It is better to stand in My judgments now than to be found not ready to stand at My white throne judgment.

1 Corinthians 11:31-32 (KJV) declares, “For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.”

“Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand; a day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations,”   Joel 2:1-2 KJV.

“If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified. But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men’s matters.  Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.  For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?  And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?  Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator,”   1 Peter 4:14-19 KJV.

The Great Net of Harvest

It does not matter how insignificant we see things, or how insignificant we feel about ourselves.

 

It does not matter how insignificant we see things, or how insignificant we feel about ourselves.

I am always amazed at any little thing the LORD does, and what’s more, He lets me get to watch and participate in the drama of all ages!

For having been planned long ago and NOW, being played out in front of our very eyes!  It is the salvation of our very souls!

Those whose innocence is well known of the Father, keeps warning!  It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.  There will be a higher price paid for those who mess with his beloved children.

“Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven,”   Matthew 18:10 KJV.

Vision

There were thousands upon thousands of people mass transitioning and I understood that these were getting into place.

I could see some of their faces and they looked so determined and stayed on task.  No one was going to keep them from their connection.

Some carried books and other equipment and others, briefcases and such.  As this was all taking place, it looked like utter chaos!

However, as I was watching the movement of the people, it caused a great dust cloud over the crowd.  I noticed it seemed so thick being in the atmosphere and slowly it began to settle.

I could see a huge clock in the midst that was high above the crowd and it was keeping the time in this seemingly chaotic crowd.  As each came into time and aligned, the sound of it became more toned down while I noticed others were scrambling to get into position.

As each person locked in, the further the dust settled.  As silence eased in, you could began to hear the sounds and ticks of the clock.

Once the sounds and the dust settled, you could see a vast amount of people, but hear a pin drop.  As I noticed the people, they only seemed inches apart from each other, everyone moved in sequence like a divine dance of ages.

In no way at all did they touch or bump into each other.  It wasn’t mass chaos, it was orderly.  For if you only looked with the eye and dust, it could seem like a huge mess.

Each person transitioned into their divine mission and each hand would cross here and little there, but absolutely no one was out of order.

Each person was transmitting to their plug and once the dust settled you could see a huge net.  I knew in myself, something became permanent.

In the quiet peace and ticking of the clock, suddenly I heard voices outside of the crowd!

These are those who remained far off in the distance when the network dance began.  These began to shout, “This is out of order!”

It was these that stood afar off from this movement who suddenly began to criticize and pass judgment.  These were those who chose to stay away from the seemingly chaos.

These now being made experts of the crowd, sounded their message and turned into an uproar!  These said and shouted with venom, “God says, this is out of order!”

Now shall true reformation come!  God is going to use such unorthodox methods that will swarm the religious devils across the land into chaos.

The glory of the LORD shall be revealed, all flesh will see it together for the mouth of the LORD has spoken it.  He brings princes to nothing and establishes his realm in the earth.

Historians have documented great revivalist like, Finny and Edwards etc. and although there were historic changes in this young nation of America, the change was short lived.

Now the LORD says, “Come!”  Now the Church says, “Come!”  The fire of revivals shall go from sea to sea, nation to nation and great results of souls being saved.

Because of satellites and social media, the Great Net has made connections all over the world and these connections shall catch multitudes of souls for the Kingdom.

The great network will also be a safety source for catching the saints that have fallen from their place of grace.  The plowman shall overtake the reaper.  This great harvest shall gather in all of the beloved bride, for she has made herself ready.

We have entered a place of no return.  The net has been cast, and the net is set; the harvest shall come in unprecedented ways.

We shall truly reach the very ends of the earth.  I can hear the sound of heaven, and the Church says, “Come!”

Wow, what an epiphany it has been.  To God be ALL the glory!

~Selah!

NOTE:  Study Revelations 22:14-20

“Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. 15 But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie.
“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”
And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!”  And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.”
A Warning
“For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add[d] to him the plagues that are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.”
I Am Coming Quickly
“He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming quickly.”
Amen. Even so, come, LORD Jesus!”

The Divine Set Up

While I was in prayer I had a vision. I saw a woman alone, staggering and wandering through a desert and knowing this person represented of the LORD’s people.

 

While I was in prayer I had a vision.  I saw a woman alone, staggering and wandering through a desert.

While looking from above, the LORD showed me a dry, desolate place as far as the eye could see.  I knew and understood that this person was desperately alone.

This person had been led through many circumstances into the desert by sheer determination and woundedness.  I understood and knew this person represented of the LORD’s people.

This woman was so wounded, that no one could come close to her.  She could trust no one.  She was driven into the desert, hoping to find death.  She felt so condemned and alone.

There was no hope anymore, due to the mishaps and mistakes she had made.  She even felt grief and shame for her own thoughts of failure.

She mourned those who lost trust in her care.  She was so careful with the flock of God, even unto death.

She laid down her life at the entrance of the sheep fold to guard, defend and protect the beloved of God.

She was so careful with the sheep, that she failed to see what was coming towards her.

In her exhaustion and burnout, she spread herself so thin that she failed to see her own personal need of protection and rest in the LORD.

During the in-gathering of the sheep to the sheep fold, all of a sudden she became overrun and attacked by many religious hirelings, wolves and false prophets, all at once!

She had not realized that she was depleted of zoe life, “Gods kind of life.”  Over the months she failed to understand, realize and discern her own burned out condition.  She wasn’t able to see or hear clearly.

During the attack, she escaped with her life; although when she finally stopped running, her thoughts flooded her soul.

The horror of her failure could have cost countless numbers of lives.  Her failure was more than she could bear, so she began to run away so that she may hide find a place to die.

She mourned for those who had been with her and for those whom she had cared for.  She mourned for her own life and death.  She couldn’t live with such failure, so she ran until she could run no further.

She loved the LORD so desperately, but couldn’t understand why these things happened.

In her confusion, she felt how alone it can really get.  All of the inadequacies and failures on her previous path, didn’t prepare her for this.  She had gone as far as she could go, and wept and mourned bitterly of her soul.

She hated what she had become and didn’t want to live anymore.  She said within herself, and to the heavy weight of regret, that she was no longer worthy.

She was weeping inconsolably and begging God to let her die.

She stood as her own counsel and accuser.  As she spoke, reminding God that she was no longer of any value, because she failed the LORD.

Then there was silence.  It was deafening, and yet she lived.  She could not hear the judge of the whole world anymore.  She wailed, and finally she rested, in an exhausted heap.

She survived another day of misery and defeat, and chose to go further into the desert of desolation.  While in that desolate desert place, she grew thirsty for the clear, pure water of refreshing.

She had become so exhausted, depressed and discouraged.  She didn’t know why she yet lived.  In all of her confusion, she was in no condition to walk much further.

She looked up and started to see from a distance what looked like water; only to find a mirage.  Exhausted and discouraged, she sat down on the sand and wept and finally, she found sleep.

As she wept for what was her struggle, she thought that that was the price in life and felt like she had failed God.  In absolute shame, guilt and condemnation, she laid down in the heat of the struggle and begged God to let her die.

In her death prayer, she asked the LORD to forgive her for all her mistakes to others, and especially, to offending the LORD.

She repented of performance, fleshly works, doing things without the LORD’s leading and as she wept for all her sins and faults, she begged God to take her home.

Suddenly the atmosphere changed and she had an epiphany; a place of transfiguration in the desert!

The whole atmosphere changed and there were no sand or heat.  It was heavenly and she wondered if she was in Heaven.

Suddenly, all of the prayers and beliefs she doubted, became clear.  All of the questions she had asked the LORD, were suddenly answered.

She watched as scenes from her life were played out in front of her.

It was here in transfiguration that she finally understood God’s amazing grace and mercy.

She saw clearly how religion, tradition, dependence on the flesh brought her to a dry, deeply desolate place.

She was amazed at the level of truth and wonderment of soul!  She understood why her journey had brought her nothing but sand, desert and death of soul.

She found the truth in the sands of desolations!  Suddenly there was fullness of joy!

She lifted up her head, and noticed in the distance, green leafed trees.  As her epiphany, her transfiguration changed her, suddenly through the clarity of the sun, she lifted up her head and to her amazement, off in the distances, he saw an oasis with palm trees!

With great joy, she was amazed and walked there in shocked wonderment of who she met!

This precious experience she had in the middle of a desert, brought joy unspeakable and full of glory!  As tears of joy ran down her face, all she could do was weep, as she praised the LORD of Hosts!

She wasn’t weeping anymore out of a deep mourning for the death in her body; contrariwise, she was so full of joy, she laughed, she leaped and she twirled about!

Where there had been weeping and mourning, there was now a supernatural divine exchange that had happened.

She experienced such love from He Who holds her in the palm of His hand.  The one she loves so dear, her Jesus, she drew near.  She drank from the waters that never run dry.

Her desire comes from the deepest pool; she stays lost in the depths of seeing every step.   She leans against her Master, and she stays lost in Him.

Pure, clear and dear to her heart, she rested in the place of solace with shade and angels about.

Falling asleep, a little baby in the arms of Abba, she returned to the lover of her soul and with childlike simplicity, in new faith and fullness.

Abba restored and He enlarged her heart, so that she now runs the way of His commands, making her heart even bigger, to show others of this great, amazing, and loving quest.

“Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, so shall thy seed be,”   Romans 4:18 KJV.

“Who passing through the valley of Baca make it a well; the rain also filleth the pool,”   Psalms 84:6 KJV.

“Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in manifold temptations: That the trail of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls,”   1 Peter 1:6-9 KJV.
