God’s Greatest Weapon: Silence

During this acceleration season we are in, there is much clamor, shifting and anxious people trying to figure out what is happening and where they fit in the grand schemes of things.

During this acceleration season we are in, there is much clamor, shifting and anxious people trying to figure out what is happening and where they fit in the grand schemes of things.

To know the heart of God one must be willing to wait in His presence.  We must continue to wait as long as it takes to hear from God.

I REFUSE to do anything in his name, until he makes me know it is him.  I believe the LORD is reestablishing the Fear of the LORD to His church; like it was when the church was born.

To use someone else’s Words from God as a means of promoting self, is stealing.  I have seen this;  they take the pirated words and make up their own agenda/version of the words.

YES, God see’s it and is not happy about it.  In these end-times, there will be a greater price we pay when we take and have such motives and actions.

Before you do anything for God, one needs to be prepared by His individual training, which takes time, times and more time.

To do something in His name by promoting it, and he isn’t in it, is a very slippery slope.

To say a Word is copyright, stamped with his signet ring or stamp of approval for example, means He approves it?  Not so!  Some of you authors understand copyright infringement.  It is actually stealing words from another minister for the users own benefit.  Promoting self.

Beloved, there are so many out there promoting themselves.  The life of Christ isn’t in them.  The life of Christ is not about promoting ourselves, but dying to self.

People want so desperately for God to put his approval on them, without going through the steps and test we learn from.  You cannot sacrifice time learned, however the LORD can redeem the time if we are obedient to come under his discipleship to get there.

Pride must be mastered in our lives or we will fall into the same sin that Lucifer did.  Pride cometh before a fall and a haughty spirit unto destruction.

Those with wrong heart and motives surface as we abide as a body of believers.  Getting to know a person takes time and effort.  Finding where we fit in the five fold ministry is so important.  God places those in and over our lives to watch for us as those who must give account.  They are also there to pray for us so we won’t fall into the enemies traps.

Beloved, be aware of this attitude and spirit.  Those who are deceived by pride, will come to act and speak as God, knowing all God knows; this is pride at it’s worst.

When you say you are moving with God and moving by the spirit, can actually be a wrong spirit.  Stand strong!  Even when everyone but you, is on the band wagon and you CANNOT do it!!

I implore you to WAIT!  God will answer you in his time.  God will continue to test us no matter how mature we get.

Will we wait on Him?  Do not wonder why you are so different.  God is grooming you for His greatness.  Meaning LESS of us and more of YOUR Greatness God.

The discipline of silence is not an option.  Silence before God in prayer and mediation is a necessity in our growth.  Making mistakes and moving out of his will, will cost you in this new realm for there is acceleration.

Do not, I repeat do not move out from under His will in silence unless He gives you the wisdom and go ahead for your life.  Surrender to His teaching and yield to His will.

Rebellion and stubbornness all scream of the flesh, “It’s all about me, myself and I.”  SELF on the throne.  God will surely prepare us so well, so he can trust us with His glory and mission.  Will we submit to his grooming?  Will we submit to his voice above all other voices?

Silence teaches us to be still, small and quiet.  “Be still and know I AM God.”  Silence is an acquired discipline.  Jesus longed for his times alone with the Father in silence.  How can we hear anything if we won’t shut up and listen?

We are to judge by the fruits.  I just don’t except everything or anyone that comes to me.  I need to see the fruits of Gods Spirit in action in a persons life.  Knowing a person, takes time and proving.  It doesn’t matter how seemingly anointed they are or how likable they are.  What’s important?  Is it of God?

Many false prophets come and go.  They can prophesy, operate in the gifts, can come with all the right words, but inwardly, they can be wolves.

“Many in that day will say LORD, LORD, have we not prophesied in thy name?  And in thy name have cast out devils?  And in thy name done many wonderful works?”  Matthew 7:23.

If there are false prophets, there are false anointings.  These can say all sorts of things, and manifest signs and wonders too, but the power they are under has its source from hell.  How will we know the difference?

“For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the very elect.”   Mark 13:22.

We must study to be quiet.  It is time to stay just as close as you can to HIS heart beat.  As we abide with Him in prayer, He will gently guide us to places of safety.

He is our Chief Shepherd.  Make HIM your first love and keep HIM your first love, and you will never be deceived.  Keep HIM first in all you do, and be not afraid.

“Trust the LORD with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him as LORD and He will direct your pathway and make it straight,”   Proverbs 3:5-6.

The anointing manifesting, is never to promote a person, but to promote the LORD and bring Him all the glory.  What happens then when the curtain is closed?  What remains?

Is it the fruit of the Spirit remaining or the deeds of the flesh.  We all miss it, but I am saying what is the consistency of the persons life.  You will know them by their fruit.  People who love God never want to knowingly hurt anyone! It is not within their new nature.

You can learn a lot from developing silence in God.  Start to really listen to what people say or do.  You will fully know them by the fruit.  Be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath.

Silence is a theme that I believe must be mastered before God can use us as spokesmen.  Amen?

“Enter ye in at the strait gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat; Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.  You shall know them by their fruits.
Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?  Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.  Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.  Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
Not every one that saith unto me, LORD, LORD, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
Many will say to me in that day, LORD, LORD, have we not prophesied in thy name?  And in they name have cast out devils?   And in they name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you; depart from me, ye that work iniquity,”   Matthew 7:12-23 KJV.

The Winds of Adversity

“Though the winds were strong against you, you shall master my winds by My design. As an eagle is designed to soar and a soldier designed for war, so I have designed you to flow in your element.”

I witnessed two eagles soaring in the midst of violent winds.  The winds were so strong they pushed my truck over into the other lane a bit.  What was amazing was the eagles soared with none of the blowing effecting them.  They seemed to flow effortlessly with the winds.  The winds did not conquer them, they conquered the winds.

Hear what the LORD says:  “Though the winds were strong against you, you shall master my winds by My design.  As an eagle is designed to soar and a soldier designed for war, so I have designed you to flow in your element.

A fish cannot swim without water and neither can you learn to soar without the element of trouble.  For on the winds of adversity you shall learn to ride and abide.  Even the waters shall rise to try to undermine your foundations.The storm of winds in fury shall blow.  Toss the excess overboard, lighten the load, cast your cares on Me, release the burden and trust Me with all your heart.  I have created you for such adversity.  You have been made to thrive in the midst of storms and troubles.  Thrive My beloved!  Rebuke the demonic winds and storms!  You shall rise says your God.”

I saw a coconut tree being blown from fierce winds.  The tree was blown side ways and the palm leaves and coconuts were blown off.  The tree never uprooted, but was stripped of leaves and fruit.  However, when the winds of adversity blow strong, your roots are going deep.  You are stronger than you think.

“There are many new people gathered.  Many stepping on each other to gain advantage.  You must beware of the leaven of hypocrisy.  Everything that is hidden will be made known.  Pretenders that are clean on the outside are made clearly manifest to Me, says the LORD.I delight in restoring dead things to life.  I AM a God of restoration.  My strongest rebukes came to the religious hypocrites;  Those who thought they were right with Me could not see.  The climbing to pinnacles of success brought them honor in a “self righteous” sense.  But these pinnacles shall crumble.The highest place is at My feet in brokenness.  In your brokenness you release fragrance I will fill that void with love in your heart.  For those that lift themselves up shall be brought low.  But those that are at My feet, I shall lift up into My face says the LORD.”

The Fragrance of Forgiveness

As she pressed into that house the religious scoffed and mocked her. Some even knowing her personally scorned her even though they were as guilty as she. But in the pious pride of the establishment, they kept the mask of hypocrisy on.

Hear the word of the LORD:

“I came for the sick, the weak and the outcast.  In the midst of religious hypocrisy I sat at the table, divinely appointed for such a time.  A sinful woman who desperately pressed into that house, against all hope believed in hope for her future.

As she pressed into that house the religious scoffed and mocked her. Some even knowing her personally scorned her even though they were as guilty as she.  But in the pious pride of the establishment, they kept the mask of hypocrisy on.

The woman offered the most expensive thing she had.  She offered the perfume and she broke open the alabaster box and her tears bathed My feet.  She worshiped at My feet, her glory wiped My feet.  She identified with the only hope for her soul.  She wanted true unconditional love.

The perfume that was once used for attracting men to fill the void of her heart, was now applied to My feet.  Her reputation in the community was that of trash, yet she made a mark on My heart in her great love.  She was forgiven of many things therefore she could only come up.

Did I know what kind of woman she was?  Her remembrance went down in history for a memorial.

The highest place is lowest place at My feet in brokenness.  In your brokenness you release fragrance.  I will fill that void with love in your heart.  For those that lift themselves up shall be brought low.  But those that are at My feet, I shall lift up into My face.

And one of the Pharisees desired him that he would eat with him.  And he went into the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to meat.  And, behold, a woman in the city, which was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at meat in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster box of ointment,

And stood at his feet behind him weeping, and began to wash his feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

Now when the Pharisee which had bidden him saw it, he spake within himself, saying this man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto thee.  And he saith, “Master, say on!”

There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five hundred pence, and the other fifty, and when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both.

Tell me therefor, which of them will love him most?  Simon answered and said, “I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most.”   And He said unto him, “Thous hast rightly judged.”

And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, “Seest thou this woman?  I entered into thine house, thou gavest me no water for my feet: but she hath washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hairs of her head.

Thous gavest me no kill: but this woman since the time I came in hath not ceased to kiss my feet.  My head with oil thou didst not anoint: but this woman hath anointed my feet with ointment.

Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.  And He said unto her,  “Thy sins are forgiven.”

And they that sat at meat with Him began to say within themselves, “Who is this that forgiveth sins also?”

And He said to the woman, “Thy faith hath saved thee; go in peace.”   (Luke 7:36-7:50KJV)

Arise Shine: Your Light Has Come

Remember how well you moved with Him? It is all coming back into your lives and God will take you further than you ever dreamed. He is taking some into a more advanced realm.

It doesn’t matter how hidden you are.  You do not have to prove anything.

God will make room for your gifts.  God moved on Samuel to visit Jesse’s home.  As all his sons came before Samuel the prophet, Samuel said there must be another.  Jesse said there was another in the field with the sheep and Samuel told him to fetch him.  When Samuel saw David he knew it was him, and Samuel anointed him at that time as king.

Like David being in the fields with the care of the sheep seemed a unnatural choice to be anointed, yet Gods ways are not our ways.  David was truly anointed but he didn’t reign as king till much later,   (1 Samuel 16:10-13).

You may have been wrecked for years and tossed aside, but the LORD wants you to get up, dust yourself off and prepare to ride.  You may have ridden a bicycle years ago but you are rusty and frankly don’t think you could ride that bike again because of your circumstances.  However the LORD wants you to get back on that bike and you may be rusty and unbalanced, but God is going to hone in on your ability.

As you peddle and weave back and forth, soon you will begin to remember and your body becomes one with the bike.  We must become one with Christ and our ministry.  We are not separate.

Like being one with a bicycle takes you places as you peddle, so God is restoring everything you thought was over.  Remember how well you moved with Him?  It is all coming back into your lives and God will take you further than you ever dreamed.  He is taking some into a more advanced realm.

God is launching you into the deep as a large ship.  He is christening you with new wine for such a time as this and launching you into deep waters.  People are attracted to movement and success.  Both good and bad.  Not everyone who comes, comes with good motives.  But you shall learn how to move forward in the midst of all motives.  Even in accusations; Nothing will stop you.  There is an acceleration in the timing of the LORD and a quick work He will do in the earth.

All sorts of people seek to be in your place or presence, and because you are quiet, they think you are a push over.  It is Gods job to elevate and promote.  There is no need to control or manipulate.

If you seek God he will hear you and will promote you in His time.  Anything other than this, is creating Ishmael’s.  We must learn to wait on God.  Going around those who are successful and looking for their approval is not of God.  These think because they are close, that they will be seen, known and advanced. May the LORD keep us innocent, humble, meek and gentle.

Keep me child like LORD!  Deliver us from anything and anyone that would latch on for ulterior motives.  You shall be spotless like a lamb but very dangerous to the enemy.

This type of thing that others want to prostitute or ride on your anointing; brings a pirates flag.  I heard the word “Piracy.”

In prayer I saw a pirate flag with skull and cross bones and ships that seek to rape, pillage and plunder.  I heard “poison” then looked and saw that the flag represents, a symbol of death, a warning of poison and danger.

The pirate flag and cross bones and skull are used in secret societies and military factions to make people move away and stay away from them in fear.  However there is an intentional deception that the elite to hide the true meaning.  In fact the cross bones and skull was used as an ancient instrument used by sorcerers to gain spiritual power.

We must guard against those who seek to obtain the anointing through prostituting or riding on your anointing.  We must watch our words and those of others that are poisonous.  Words bring life and death.

Is our motives to be seen or known?  Like David with the sheep, he had no idea God would find him there taking care of the flock and send for him to be anointed by Samuel.  God makes room for Davids kingdom choosing the under dog.

All those who decide to come along or join in our lives are not all for you.  There will be those who will make covenant with you and it will be very clear.  These are kingdom builders as they establish HIS kingdom on earth as it is in heaven.

There are those who try to benefit due to the anointing in your lives.  Some want it like Simon the sorcerer. “Let me buy this power”.  Or like Ananias, with Sapphira that attempted to deceive the Holy Ghost.  Their motives were to make people think they were giving such a great gift, they were doing it for others to think they were some great pillars and they both planned in advance, conspired and schemed a very evil thing unto the LORD.

Because of this they died. “Wasn’t the piece of land yours to begin with?  Why do you lie to the Holy Ghost?”  The Sons of Sceva, a Jew who thought they could cast out devils in the name of who Paul preaches and exercised demons alright!  They jumped on them and beat them up,  (See Acts 5:1-11, Acts 8: 9-20, Acts 19:11-16).

Validity is coming to the Kingdom, and the way the Church was born is how it will continue and end.  Victorious!  God is very serious in this Kingdom age and those who are prepared by God will be strong and do exploits.

There are those who try to prostitute the anointing.  To ride on the apron strings as we go along.  God is watching this closely.  Remember Balaam?  How could he curse what God had blessed?  He could not.  Balaam played the field and straddled the fence for gain.  He gave prophesy for gain and it was very evil in Gods eyes,   (Numbers 22).

There are those among us that are there for their own ulterior motives.  They look and sound right and walk the walk and talk the talk and will appear as really spiritual and it will take walking in the Spirit of God to reveal motives.

There will be those who want to go with you, but can never catch up.  So onward you go.  You will see and pass people on your journey, all sorts of people and demons in people that seek to shut you down.  Just be aware at all times.

In prayer, I saw a woman in running shoes running circles around a person to try and get them in shape.  The woman in shape no matter how she tried, had to let the other woman move at her own pace.  The woman in running shoes ran and had to leave that person behind because she wasn’t prepared for what you are prepared for.

When we are in shape in the Spirit we will abide with those who are like us in our condition.  Like heart, like mind and like spirit.  Even every military drill demands that all run in step with the others.

If a person refused to remain in their place in rank and order, you cannot help them nor can you save them if they do not want to be saved.  As you abide close with the Holy Ghost, it will not take long once you know a person to see what they are after.

Satan’s ploy is to kill, steal and destroy. However, division is not always a negative word or action.

There is a line of Demarcation.  Demarcation is the action of fixing the boundary or limits of something: Separation – distinctions – differentiation – division, (see Oxford Dictionary).

Not everyone can walk where you walk, nor fly like you fly.  Because there is a mark and line of Demarcation.

You will notice people who are not with you anymore, and God is doing it.  Some don’t even realize why people leave you.  It can be because the enemy has grips through a person and when you are elevated many cannot go.

Or, they are just not ready.  Pray for them and leave them with God.

When you are released you will say to yourself, “Wow I did not realize how much oppression I was under.”  With that elevation comes much accountability for we answer to God for these things.

Some of you who read this, will have a weight lift off of you instantly.  Know it is God and rejoice that he has got this and you!

Arise and Shine, for thy light has come!
