SPIRITUAL STATUS OF THE EXISTING CHURCH

Since the end of the first century, NO century has excelled in spiritual depth. In fact, most centuries since then have been very, very shallow indeed with only a handful of gloriously shining lights - usually no more than a few dozen men and women - to illuminate the darkness.

THIS era - the one we live in now - has proven to be, unquestionably, the most Bible-centered age since the days of the Pharisees; HOWEVER it also rivals their age for being one of the LEAST in emphasizing spiritual depth. (And men today get just as angry as they did then when someone points this out).

Nor is that the only record our age has set. We are setting a whole raft of records. For instance, until today, the 1500s have generally held the trophy for being the most financially corrupt age in church history. That was the day you could - for cash - have your sins erased right out of God's ledgers. We don't do that today, but with our mass mailings, business reply envelopes, four color brochures, foundations, professional fund raising campaigns, "living by faith", schools of financial prosperity, tax exempt status, and sermons on stewardship, by the time one is 35 years old, many ministers of the gospel have become some of the best promoters and fund raisers around. (And truly if you listen to the ones like Mike Murdock, 100 people can sow a seed of $1,000 to "buy" the 58 blessings...of this or that scripture verses...)

The same can be said for intellectualism. The 1700s have usually been considered the high water mark of intellectualism in the Christian faith, but today more men walk the earth with doctorates in theology than in any other age. Unsatisfied with the spiritual depth this intellectual climate has produced, these men cry out that the solution is more, better, and higher Christian education. (Holy Spirit proclaims that intellect is at enmity with Him - 5:05 p.m.) This is an age of endless reams of books and papers on endless varieties of subjects, and age that produces men who deliver mind-boggling lectures on the DOCTRINE of prayer and yet know little of its deeper experience. This age has, generally, NEVER known Christ in a deep way. Sophisticated, disdainful, sterile and passionless, we have wrenched from the hand of the 1700s the trophy for the most intellectual age in church history - intellectual and not spiritual, not holy, not sanctified, not in intimate relationship with Jesus Christ. (5:07 p.m.)

The era between 1100 and 1400 has generally been considered the darkest and most corrupt in church history, an age when the papacy went to the highest bidder and the church was the most powerful political and financial force on the earth.

But we live in a day when churches look like storybook castles. Servants of God today, looking back upon the first century worker's idea of owning NOTHING throughout his whole life, might view such an ideology as cultish. They are quite unlike their fathers, the early Christians, who were the natural enemies of their community, who fought for the PRIVILEGE of living their whole lives owning nothing but the clothes on their backs, and who gloried in dying as might a pauper. (NOTE: The Lord once again is having me daily throw away massive amounts of accumulated "stuff" (papers, unused things, etc...dwindling down possessions - He did this in a huge way also in my life in 2005) (even before I knew He was going to speak this current word - love the confirmation!)

Those serving the Lord "full time" in this age should prepare themselves for being remembered, as a whole, as being the wealthiest, most commercial, sophisticated, worldly-minded, materialistic and comfortable men in the whole history of the church.

There is one more trophy which this age - above any other - will win (that is, unless a radical change takes place very soon). In every era of church history there have been recorded the names of a few devout men and women whose hallmark was awesome spiritual depth and utter devotional abandonment. There were such men even during the bleakest days the dark ages ever witnessed. In every age there have been ALWAYS been at least a few men and women who knew Him in the depths. Will our age slip by with no such testimony? From a purely historical viewpoint, we MUST be categorized as the most universally shallow believers ever to cross the pages of church history.

If the Lord tarries, future generations will deem this one to be the darkest century, in spiritual depth and spiritual experience, in church history - UNLESS something very radical happens - soon.

More corrupt than the dark days before Luther; more impotently intellectual than during the heyday of Calvinism; more financially perverted than the days that caused John the Baptist to explode; more intoxicated with the drive for spiritual power than any age, yet exercising that outward power with less internal transformation than anyone since King Saul; enamored with the gifts, yet hardly knowing the Giver, our age has produced the most commercial, materialistic, fad-oriented people ever to claim His name.

Too harsh an assessment? Consider one last trophy this age may win: we seem to be more totally blind to the deprivation of our spiritual depth than all other centuries lumped together. (How many people do YOU know - including you, yourself?, who THINK they know Him, THINK they hear Him - THINK they are doing His will - - - yet are so far from knowing, hearing, doing - yet will NOT be told differently because of PRIDE keeping them in bondage/deception....)

It is true we have built more buildings and founded more religious organizations than all the past eras combined (all of which is UN-SCRIPTURAL!). It is true that today's Christianity has won more men to Christ than all other ages combined - BUT it is also just as true that those converts have set new records for the short length of time they have followed the Lord with abandoned devotion!

(NOT forgetting that a 'sinners prayer' is NOT scriptural, does NOT produce true repentance, humility, salvation, conversion)

If past church history is any guide, we can optimistically look for some sort of a turnaround. Spiritual depth is due for a return.

May God have mercy. May He see fit to woo back those who have been deceived, lost, fallen away, walk luke-warmly, or in compromise - for He cannot bless sin (which spiritual shallowness IS - sin) - - - therefore there must come a great spiritual awakening. And yet He has already pronounced His word a few days ago (of the coming judgment).

The Lord ALWAYS has a word for His faithful remnant - at 3:53 p.m. He said:

"I will lead her (My loves, My true disciples), into solitude, and there I will speak to her heart. And it shall be at that day, that she will call me Ish'-i (literally "my husband"). And in that day will I make a covenant for her...and I will make her to lie down safely. And I will betroth her unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth her unto Me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in loving-kindness, and in mercies. I will even betroth her unto Me in faithfulness, and she shalt know her Lord."

He included (in the midst of proclaiming the above): "And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people..." (Isaiah 11:11)

As an added note the number 11 have been significant of late - He showed me that it has to do with dealing with things that are imperfect, things that have disorder or even chaos - He is bringing all that is imperfect in us to perfectness in HIM - aligning, arranging, molding, making us into His likeness, His spotless Bride. Submit unto His refining process - while it is day!

WORD FROM THE LORD - message #2 - 06-21-2011

A few people know I have been attacked on all sides. But the Lord is with me always and He is faithful to perform His word.

A little while ago as I was walking down the hallway, the Father said, "Take that bible from the shelf". (It is a bible I seldom if hardly ever use-maybe once or twice, a King James by Thomas Nelson).

He asked me to take it to my room, and said "Open it".

It opened (by His Spirit) to the book via Jeremiah.

The Father spoke to me, first, confirming-affirming who I am to Him and that which He has done in me, prophesied over me, told me personally, encouraging and lifting me up for His glory:

"My daughter, before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations. For thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Truly that which has been spoken over you from Me SHALL come to pass - I have CHOSEN THEE - you SHALL remain faithful to Me in all ways. Be not afraid of their faces: for I AM with thee to deliver thee," saith the Lord.

Then He put forth His hand and again TOUCHED MY MOUTH - and He said that which He said unto Jeremiah: "Behold, I have put My words in thy mouth."

He shared two scriptures regarding this word:

Exodus 4:12 - "Now therefore go, and I will be with thy mouth, and teach thee what thou shalt say."

Isaiah 50:4 - "The Lord God hath given me the tongue of the learned, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him that is weary: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth mine ear to hear as the learned."

I paused to thank Him, to worship Him, to continue to humble myself before His face.

He said, "See, My daughter, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant."

"I shall hasten My word to perform it."

THEN He gave me His word to speak to ALL in this hour (which you will see and know in your Spirit is a continuation of His earlier word AND confirmation of such):

"TO THE OTHERS, SPEAK: "I will utter My judgments against them touching all their wickedness who have forsaken Me, and have burned incense unto other gods, and worshiped the works of their own hands. I shall send upon them cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that they settest their hand unto for to do, until they be destroyed, and until they perish quickly because of the wickedness of their doings, whereby they have forsaken Me. I have spread out My hands all the day unto them, a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that is not good, a way after their own thoughts. They are a people that provoketh Me to anger continually, unto My face. Woe woe woe unto they who have turned away, who seek after the things and the ways of the world and NOT My Kingdom. Verily I say unto you, indeed I shall hasten My word to perform it," SAITH THE LORD.

THEN the Father said unto me:

"Gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I command thee. For behold, I have made thee this day a defenced city, and an iron pillar, and brasen walls against the whole land, against the kings of Judah, against the princes thereof, against the priests thereof, and against the people of the land. And they shall fight against thee; but they shall NOT prevail - for I AM with thee...to deliver thee," SAITH THE LORD.

Because He IS longsuffering, merciful and true, He DID permit me to finish this word with an encouragement shared via Holy Spirit - He said, "The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light." (Romans 13:12)

ARE YOU PUTTING GOD FIRST - message #1 - 06-21-11

THOUGHTS: Do you start your day meditating on God's goodness, seeking His face, hearing His words - or dwelling on today's problems and challenges?

WORDS: Which come out of your mouth first: complaints and accusations - or - encouragement and gratitude, praise and adoration? Do you speak NOT AT ALL unless He gives you utterance?

DEEDS: Do you do ONLY THAT which the Lord tells you to do - or - do you do whatever you have placed in your agenda calendar, being swayed by worldly ways, things, family, friends

FEELINGS: Are your feelings shaping your relationship with God - or - are you allowing Him to shape your feelings? Do you know that it matters NOT how you FEEL about ANYTHING - only that you are IN OBEDIENCE UNTO HIM no matter WHAT?

FINANCES: Where are your "firstfruits" going: to worship God and advance His Kingdom - or - to pay your bills and buy new things?

YOUR LIFE IS ABOUT TO CHANGE RADICALLY - THE ONLY WAY TO BE READY FOR ALL THAT THE LORD WOULD HAVE COME TO PASS IS TO SEEK HIM FIRST AND IN ALL THINGS - TO BE OBEDIENT - TO SUBMIT YOURSELF TO HOLY SPIRIT....

There is a HUGE 'check' in my Spirit - it's like a huge mass - of anguish, sorrow, KNOWING but not fully knowing - that SOMETHING is about to happen - I am anticipating yet the grief brings sorrow - in that we are ONE BODY under our beloved Head, Lord Jesus Christ - we are joined, united in and through and by and for Him and His sake and His glory - really and literally YOUR TIME IS UP - the Lord literally 'drew a line in the sand' over 10 years ago and said "PICK A SIDE - Me or the world" - and you've continued as if nothing changed, nothing mattered - as if it's OK for you to live like everyone else in a world that's dying - that it didn't offend Him, didn't matter to you or your future - - - people live as if it will never changed - perhaps desensitized to "JESUS IS COMING SOON" or not caring anymore (?) - - - the time IS - it is NOW - Jesus IS now, He IS yesterday, He IS tomorrow - all that is and was and will be is in HIM - in the beginning, in the ending and in the NOW - - - what you were, are and will be is SET IN HIM - you MUST STEP INTO IT - INTO HIM - from this day forward....who has ears to hear....

"Shall I not visit for these things? saith the Lord: shall not My Soul be avenged on such a nation and such a people as this?"

What is YOUR confession?!?!?

A revival preacher posted the following quote:

"If we are going to walk in holiness...we're going to be a lonely people." - Paul Ravenhill

The Lord had me respond:

The definition of "lonely" is: feeling friendless, forlorn. Synonyms of "lonely" are: abandoned, alone, apart, by oneself, comfortless, companionless, deserted, desolate, destitute, estranged, forsaken, godforsaken, left, lone, lonesome,... outcast, rejected, renounced, secluded, single, solitary, unbefriended, uncherished...

HOW CAN A FOLLOWER OF JESUS CHRIST BE CONSIDERED LONELY? TRULY JESUS IS WITH US ALWAYS, NEVER LEAVING NOR FORSAKING US! HOLY SPIRIT IS THE FRIEND WHO STICKS CLOSER THAN A BROTHER. THE PARADIGM MUST BE 'WHAT DOES THIS THING/WORD MEAN IN GOD'S KINGDOM - NOT WHAT DOES 'LONELY' MEAN IN TERMS OF THE WORLD.

I AM NEVER ALONE...HE IS WITH ME ALWAYS. I AM NOT LONELY NOR FORSAKEN - HE IS EVER-PRESENT. HE ACCEPTS ME, COMFORTS ME, IS MY CONSTANT COMPANION, MY TRUE LOVE.

THE CHURCH: A HOUSE DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF

A news article today says "New Jersey Billboard Promotes Atheism by Asking Motorists to 'Celebrate Reason'". Atheists publicly asking folks to refute Jesus' birth.

THIS IS A PHENOMENAL EXAMPLE OF WHY IT'S A TRAVESTY FOR CHRISTIANS TO CELEBRATE PAGAN HOLIDAYS -

IT'S NOT THAT JESUS WASN'T BORN, HE JUST WASN'T BORN IN DECEMBER.

IT'S NOT THAT WE DO NOT CELEBRATE HIM - WE CELEBRATE HIM DAILY. THE BIBLE SAYS NOTHING ABOUT AN ANNUAL FEAST RECOGNIZING HIS BIRTH.

CHRISTMAS is a holiday created by the WORLD - THE DATE IS WRONG; THE CELEBRATION IS WRONG (BIRTHDAY). BEYOND the money-grubbing commercialism, THE WORST THING IS THAT IT IS ROOTED IN PAGAN RITUALS - AND THAT IS AN ABOMINATION UNTO GOD

Oh, but "Christians" play along-even trying to re-name it, re-package it (something Jesus NEVER did)..and if you do not stand against something you are for it.

The result? ANTI-CHRISTIANS MAKE FOOLS OUT OF CHRISTIANS - BECAUSE TRULY CHRISTIANS DO NOT HAVE THE CONSCIENCE, THE CONVICTION TO COME OUT OF THE WORLD AND BE SEPARATE, TO STAND FOR JESUS ALONE WITHOUT ANY MADE-UP HOLIDAYS - (do you ever wonder why that is?!?!?!?)

THE CHURCH IS A HOUSE DIVIDED AGAINST ITSELF - a joke really, not agreeing on much of anything and TRULY not doing anything to demonstrate lives wholly lived for Jesus - or even showing that they HEAR HIM (because anyone who REALLY KNOWS HIM and REALLY HEARS HIM would KNOW HOW HE FEELS ABOUT THIS JUNK! He DOES NOT APPROVE!).

All of which leaves the so-called church EASY PICKINGS/PREY FOR THE DEVIL AND HIS MINIONS.

Seriously, would YOU want to be part of something so disorganized? So lacking in holiness, righteousness, conviction, with unwavering non-compromising hearts and spirits?

The church as it stands today is doing so much more to turn away a hurting population of folks so desperate for Him...doing way more harm than good.

If you want to be His? REALLY His? Start over at His feet - learn of and from Him - listen to Him - KNOW HIM. It's relationship not ritual; relationship not religion - stripped down to the very core - - - to know someone...to know Jesus. He's waiting to show you His Truths.

Humbly stand before Him and ask Him to show you truth. Ask Him to remove any and all things that keep you apart from Him.

Nothing on this earth can compare to being One with Jesus. Nothing.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING ONLINE?

The headline reads, "Friend of the devil?"

The story: As one pastor makes headlines for saying Facebook promotes immorality, other religious leaders see it as way to spread their message

Story debating Facebook etc as evil:

MESSAGE FROM THE LORD:

IF YOU PROCLAIM JESUS CHRIST: IF YOU PROCLAIM THAT YOU ARE HIS:

Facebook, MySpace, Twitter MUST be tools for spreading the Gospel, for sharing Jesus Christ. It is NOT ABOUT YOU - and if you are online to play stupid worldly games, if you are here making friends with the lost and NOT sharing HIM and HIM only - if you are here for personal fame or recognition, here to build your own following, here to share your life in the world...then there is a problem. Some people find it 'honorable' that they are making so many friends, then haphazardly, carelessly toss out a scripture here or there - truly Jesus DID hang out with sinners BUT He didn't become like them -THEY were drawn to His Holiness, His words of truth from the Father. He DID NOT ALTAR His message and every moment of every single day of His life, He ONLY DID THAT which the Father decreed. It is the same today as it was then -there is no required 'modernization' - the Bible and the ways of Christ are not for 'then and not now' - - - if you do not represent Him, you are living a lie and living in the world.

YOUR LIFE HAS NOT ETERNAL VALUE APART FROM CHRIST!

The ONLY thing that will set people free and lead them to eternity is Jesus Christ - the one who died that they might live!

I can guarantee you that He did NOT put you here to talk about your fame, your good works, your vacation, your family, NOTHING about you - because NONE OF THAT has eternal value. Jesus did NOT preach about what He did while walking in obedience. In fact, He said instead "Go ask them what I did". He also said "It's not about Me - I came to reveal My Father"

CAN YOU SAY THE SAME?

If the Lord put you online to pray; if He sent you here to sit at His feet under His true prophets, apostles - DO AS HE ASKS. But if while doing that you are doing all the worldly mess, you need to check yourself at His feet and repent.

Because it was NEVER about you-YOU must die to self that it be CHRIST THROUGH YOU. You need to ask Him to remove the world from you. It cannot be about you AND HIM. If you are truly HIS - it must be ALL ABOUT HIM and NOTHING of self.

Worldly 'Christians' are an offense.

THEN you must DISCERN via Holy Spirit if that one quoting scriptures really represents CHRIST! Did the LORD send them here? Is it HIM speaking through them?

There is a daily scripture site on Twitter that encouraged readers to post their good works! Yet Jesus said "DO NOT LET YOUR LEFT HAND KNOW what your right hand is doing!" We are to do all things as unto GOD, not for the eyes of men, not for show, not for a pat on the back! It is NOT ABOUT YOU!!!!!!!!!! Only Jesus deserves ALL glory - ALL honor - ALL praise. All of YOUR righteous deeds are as 'filthy rags'!

Ask Him for humility. Ask Him to remove all pride from your heart. Ask Him to help you let it be about only Him. He will. Truly.

You cannot even serve Him or love Him without Him. He chose YOU. He created YOU. What an HONOR to be loved, pursued by Almighty God.

This speaks NOTHING about Christians who chase after 'famous' so-called Christians. Has the Lord EVER shown you a 'famous' Christian who walks WHOLLY for Jesus? Who doesnt talk lust; who isn't caught drinking, partying, kissing; who sings ONLY for the glory of Jesus; who acts in Godly movies (that aren't twisted and worldly-theme-warped) - dumbed down, made "less offensive"...

There are 'christian' teens like Miley Cyrus who are pictured drinking, intertwined with opposite sex in sexual embraces; there are adults like Sherri Shepherd who say "I love Jesus" but then drool over every man (publicly) that walks across their path - talking about 'gettin' some of that'....

On and on and on - WHO IS THERE WHO IS WALKING FOR HIS GLORY!

NO COMPROMISE! Jesus said to lust with the eyes means you've already committed the act! 'Oh - but this is a different world...a different time', they rationalize, justify. NONSENSE! HOGWASH! Jesus saw the end from the beginning! Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever! There is more evil and temptation with modern media at your disposal - which means what? It means KEEP YOUR EYES UPON HIM! Neither looking to the right or the left! HE SAID "A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; [but] it shall not come nigh thee." HOW does it not come nigh thee? When you are WHOLLY IN HIM!

Famous or not - if you CLAIM to be a Christian, and are in the world's eye view in any way (there are lost folks in EVERYONE's daily life - whether it be family, friends, work, fame)?

Walk HOLY or stop claiming Him.

Because you are an affront to Him - you are an embarrassment to the Kingdom, to Christians who HAVE submitted themselves unto Him...Truly you are doing more harm than good and you will be HELD ACCOUNTABLE for all who you lead into a worldly life 'for Jesus' instead of a holy one.

DEATH AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF YOUR TONGUE

A 20-year-old student at Notre Dame died yesterday. He was in a tower apparatus taking pictures of the football team's practice; we have had wind advisories for days. Yesterday's gusts were over 50 mph. (I can personally attest to the strengths of the winds - my daughter took me on an errand with her - I sat in her car for 30 minutes while she was inside of a store and the wind felt like it was going to literally pick up and flip the car)

90 minutes before the student died, he SPOKE DEATH OUT OF HIS MOUTH. His twitter page read:

“Gusts of wind up to 60 mph well today will be fun at work ... I guess I've lived long enough.” (3:22 p.m.)

90 minutes later he was dead.

He SAID "I guess I've lived long enough..."

DEATH AND LIFE ARE IN THE POWER OF YOUR TONGUE. There are over 400 scriptures about the mouth for a reason.

The Lord proclaims in His word we are NOT TO SPEAK unless He gives us utterance. Jesus NEVER spoke anything apart from what the Father spoke

YOUR words - YOUR thoughts - spoken aloud - have NO ETERNAL VALUE. Let your "yes be yes and no be no" - meaning be of FEW WORDS...

For we are ACCOUNTABLE for every IDLE word spoken - an idle word is anything apart from the words of Almighty God - you have NOTHING OF ETERNAL VALUE to say that is of you, your experiences, your thoughts, your ideas- all are flesh and death apart from Him

It is NOT ABOUT YOU - it is about Him. So speak His words from this day forward - you will be speaking life and giving Him ALL the glory.

Jesus THROUGH us....death to self means no more you - only Him through you. It is His ministry - His birthright - surrender!

Even your mouth - especially your mouth.

WHAT ARE YOU SPEAKING???

WHAT ARE YOU DECREEING FOR YOUR LIFE (OR DEATH)?

His word is TRUTH - it's time to start listening....

Concerning the Love of Christ toward you....

Back in 2006 when I was first sent by the Lord to Myspace, there was a young woman who had just met Christ. The Lord had me encourage her with His word in many ways - letting her know that she was indeed His, and His great love for her. She was baptised, but then she got off in the wrong direction, letting the enemy steal her away and getting confused by many different people and doctrines and teachings. She all but vanished from contact. Several years later she found me again and lambasted me with criticism, saying that I was evil for 'catering to her flesh' and 'pumping up her flesh' - - - and yet all I did was speak that which the Lord was speaking toward her, which was His love.

Beloved you and I have a GREAT DEAL OF WORTH in the eyes of God. How wonderful that the Lord loves you tenderly; loves me tenderly! This should encourage you that NOTHING can separate us from the love of Christ. He DIED for us, that is how great His love is; He has written us on His hands! We are His inheritance! We are His bride!

KNOWING of His great love and devotion and long-suffering toward us, this should strengthen us to surrender MORE - it should draw you to Him MORE. AT THE SAME TIME His love strengthens and empowers you to walk out His ministry (letting HIM walk THROUGH YOU) - it should also serve to HUMBLE YOU!

Christ's love for you is INTIMATE. It is personal. He gazes at you, you gaze at Him - one to one, and it should MELT you. It shouldn't pump up your flesh, your pride, your ego, it should HUMBLE you....undo you....lay you out in awe that He cares so deeply for you.

Even as it melts you it empowers you and strengthens you to continue on FOR HIS GLORY!

Don't ever think you cannot bask in His love - that that is a flesh thing - it is NOT! It is scripture that "I am my beloved and my beloved is mine!" His love is documented in each word and deed ever spoken or performed by Him toward you. Let the greatness and awesomeness of His love HUMBLE YOU....bring you to your knees, lay you out on your face. We are NOTHING except that we are WORTHY TO HIM. In and of ourselves we are nothing without Him.

You must have spiritual ears to hear....not only to receive and know the depths of His heart and love, but also how to walk in it...and even that is for HIS GLORY and not our own.

Him. Always only Him.

The Lord had me sit in the front window and wait (can't really hear anyone knock from the back of the house). He had me read while waiting.

I looked up and it was 6:57 p.m....and still no pick-up. The Lord told me to shout,

DREAM: June 10th, 2010

Through a dream the Lord showed me that many are truly deceived. If you do not know that you know that you know the Lord, and His word, and His ways, you are going to believe people, you are going to believe words, you are going to believe dreams, you are going to believe visions and THINK THEY ARE OF HIM.

BUT - THEY ARE NOT OF HIM.

Truly there is a way that seems right to a man but leadeth to destruction. (Proverbs 14:12).

The Lord said to warn you (those who are teachable) that you will fall for anything, can be talked into anything, and will believe anything WITHOUT THE MIND OF CHRIST; WITHOUT BEING FILLED WITH HOLY SPIRIT AND WALKING IN THE FULLNESS THEREOF.

The enemy of your soul wants you to be deceived. And you cannot recognize the deception because you are too far into the world, too far from truth (HIM). You are so deceived you do not know this message is for you. You do not know you are so far from Him (when you think you are so close).

The consequences of NOT KNOWING are severe saith the Lord.

"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." Matthew 24:24

OIL SPILL UPDATE

NOTE VIA HIS MESSENGER: WHO HAS EARS TO HEAR! Can the Lord be speaking any louder, clearer in this hour?!?! FREEMASON ISLAND? Wow!

Updated May 06, 2010
Oil Sheen From Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill Reaches Beach

The first confirmed sheen of oil from the massive spill in the Gulf of Mexico reached the land Thursday on the beach of an uninhibited Louisiana island, Reuters reported.

There had been reports for more than a week that oil had reached land, but Coast Guard officials told FoxNews.com none of them were confirmed by the joint government agencies responding to the spill.

"It's largely just sheen," Coast Guard Petty Officer Connie Terrell told Reuters. "There is no evidence of medium or heavy oil."

Officials were first notified Wednesday night about the oil on Freemason Island in the Chandeleur chain, and it was confirmed Thursday, a Coast Guard official told FoxNews.com.

AND....STOCK MARKET PLUNGE

The DOW dropped 346.51 points today (May 6th, 2010) (after dropping all week) to 10,520.32 (3.19 percent drop)---at one point today it was down 998 points.

While the Lord yet again proclaimed "THIS IS JUDGMENT", hitting yet again at the world's idol (greed, money)...how profound is it that this happened on the "National Day of Prayer".

The National Day of Prayer was signed into LAW in 1952 by President Truman. In 1988 Ronald Reagan amended it to be held on the first Thursday in May. It was OBAMA who deemed it "UNCONSTITUTIONAL" . In fact, Obama has not held prayer at the White House since he's been there; he fails to consider that by ending his speeches with "God bless America" he, himself IS speaking a prayer.

COINCIDENCE that the DOW fell almost 1000 points on this day? NO SUCH THING as coincidence, brethren....

Also noteworthy: an article was posted early Friday titled, "8 Theories For Why The Stock Market Plunged Almost 1,000 Points In A Matter Of Minutes" - - - that article didn't mention God.

STAY TUNED, BELOVED....the Lord spoke over 10 YEARS AGO that 2010 was the year that much of His judgments were to begin.

NOTE VIA HIS MESSENGER: Holy Spirit said "Dove Awards" and told me to look it up - sure enough the 'Christian' Dove Awards were just in Nashville on April 25th (just prior to the flooding). When the Lord had me working in christian radio, we learned from the artists themselves that the Dove Awards are a joke to the locals in Nashville - they said that "Christians" book all the hotels that were for sex (the ones with the porn movies, etc) , and that they rented many of the available sex videos (no matter what hotel they were staying in), etc. It was considered phenomenally profitable for the porn industry in downtown Nashville when the "Christians came to town" annually.

In that true believers CARRY God's anointing - when we enter then leave an area it should bring blessing (and yes, judgment); however perversion on the part of those who claim to REPRESENT CHRIST will bring judgment faster than most things.

Note that the very building where they held the Dove Awards downtown flooded.

Also note that 'christian' music is typically NOT of the Lord, is NOT inspired/birthed by Holy Spirit and therefore does NOT give the Lord glory. Anything having to do with personal fame is an affront.

Death Toll Rises as River Crests, Floods Nashville

Eighteen people have died in Tennessee, including 10 in Nashville, due to a severe storm system that caused widespread flash flooding and tornadoes.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Muddy waters poured over the banks of Nashville's swollen Cumberland River on Monday, spilling into Music City's historic downtown streets while rescuers using boats and Jet Skis plucked stranded residents away from their flooded homes as the death toll from the weekend storms climbed to 28 people in three states.

The flash floods caused by record-breaking amounts of rain caught many off-guard, forcing thousands to frantically flee their homes and hotels. The rapidly rising waters led to the deaths of 17 people in Tennessee alone, including 10 in Nashville, and officials feared that the death toll could increase. Officials announced the latest deaths late Monday after receding flood waters revealed six more bodies.

"Do we suspect to find more people? Probably so. We certainly hope that it's not a large number," said Metro Nashville Davidson County Fire Chief Kim Lawson.

Though the historic Ryman Auditorium -- the former home of the Grand Ole Opry -- and the recording studios of Music Row were not in immediate danger, parts of other top Nashville tourist spots including the Country Music Hall of Fame and The Grand Ole Opry House were flooded.

"You never think something like this will happen in Nashville," said Stan Milstead of Tulsa, Okla., as he watched the dark brown river waters creep deeper into downtown.

Weekend storms dumped more than 13 inches of rain in two days in the Nashville area, leading to a quick rise of the Cumberland River and its tributaries. The swollen river crested Monday evening at nearly 12 feet above flood stage in Nashville and was not expected to drop below its flood stage of 40 feet until Wednesday morning, National Weather Service meteorologist Mark Rose said.

Authorities closed off streets in downtown Nashville as forecasters predicted the Cumberland would crest there early as Monday night at about 12 feet above flood stage.

About five miles east of downtown, flooding forced about 1,500 guests from the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center to evacuate Sunday night to a high school, indefinitely shutting down one of the nation's largest hotel and convention centers.

"We had just finished eating and suddenly they said: 'Go! Go! Go!"' Gerdi Bauerle, 70, who was visiting from Munich, Germany, said Monday. "And we said 'Wait, we haven't even paid."'

Up to 10 feet of water stood in parts of the hotel, as restaurant chairs and crates of wine glasses floated by. A life-sized Elvis statue missing his guitar was laying on its back in the nearby parking lot of the Wax Museum of the Stars.

Water also flooded parts of the Grand Ole Opry House and Opry Mills Mall, which replaced the old Opryland USA theme park. Though it was not immediately known how much water was in the concert hall, managers were finding alternate space for upcoming shows.

Though the rain stopped falling on Monday, the river continued to inch upward in some places. Authorities and volunteers in fishing boats, an amphibious tour bus and a canoe scooped up about 500 trapped vacationers at the Wyndham Resort along the river near Opryland. Rescuers had to steer through a maze of underwater hazards including submerged cars, some with their tops barely visible above floodwaters the color of milk chocolate.

Bill Crousser was riding his Jet Ski past a neighbor's house when he rescued a man, his wife and their dog moments before flames from a fire in the garage broke through the roof. The woman was taken to a hospital to be examined.

"We just got the hell out of there," Crousser said.

As flood waters receded elsewhere, more victims were found in Nashville and other parts on Tennessee on Monday evening.

One body was discovered in a wooded area outside a Nashville supermarket, and another woman was found dead in a home on the western side of town, city spokeswoman Gwen Hopkins said Monday night. Police said a man's body was found in standing water in Bellevue, one of the hardest hit parts of Nashville; nearby the body of an elderly woman was recovered in her home.

The weekend storms also killed six people in Mississippi and four in Kentucky, including one man whose truck ran off the road and into a flooded creek. One person was also killed by a tornado in western Tennessee.

In downtown Nashville, water filled the basement of the Schermerhorn Symphony Center where pianos were stored and speed into a mechanical room in the Country Music Hall of Fame. Five inches of water backed up through storm drains into the Bridgestone Arena, damaging dressing rooms and the floor where the NHL's Nashville Predators play. Across downtown on the river's east bank, water covered the grass inside LP Field, home of the NFL's Tennessee Titans.

Gov. Phil Bredesen declared 52 of Tennessee's 95 counties as disaster areas after finishing an aerial tour and said he talked with President Barack Obama. Bredesen saw flooding so extensive that tree tops looked like islands as he flew from Nashville to western Tennessee.

"I've never seen flooding like this," he said.

Jim Moser, a forecaster with the National Weather Service in Nashville, said a slow-moving weather system pumped up Gulf moisture into highly unstable air over Tennessee. The result was strong storms dumping heavy rains that caught most of the city and surrounding area by surprise.

"It was much higher than we expected," Moser said. The weather service listed the two-day total as 13.53 inches at the city's airport, outstripping the old record of 6.68 inches from the remnants of Hurricane Fredrick in 1979.

Officials said about 50 Nashville schools were damaged. Floodwaters submerged hundreds of homes in the Bellevue suburb on Nashville's west side, including Lisa Blackmon's. She escaped with her dog and her car but feared she lost everything else.

"I know God doesn't give us more than we can take," said Blackmon, 45, who lost her job at a trucking company in December. "But I'm at my breaking point."

Mayor Karl Dean and city officials repeatedly implored residents Monday to conserve water after one of two water treatment plants was flooded. As the rising Cumberland River threatened a levee that protected the remaining plant, neighborhoods and businesses northwest of downtown, city workers and about 200 volunteers frantically filled and stacked sandbags.

Morgan Castillo, 29, drove from the Nashville suburb of Hermitage to help. "It seems like everyone is waiting until it's too late," she said. "And then the next thing you know is you're on the roof."

Crews worked to restore electricity with about 13,400 still without power, but the Nashville Electric Service was slowed because one of its repair centers was flooded. Statewide, about 22,000 remained without power as of Monday evening.

Many residents who fled their homes worried about what they left behind.

Lucy Owens, 46, said she had to leave so quickly on Sunday night that she didn't have time to grab her family's 100-year-old Bible and afghan made by her mother, who died about a month ago. She said she first tried escape in her truck, but when she couldn't drive past her mailbox because the water was too high, she screamed for help and a police officer came and took her and son to a point where a boat could rescue them. By then, water was up to her ribcage.

"I got no notice. No one said nothing about evacuating. I did what they said and stayed put. I didn't get out. I didn't drive. Then it just all happened so fast," she said.

BE YE HOLY

ONLY AN INSTRUMENT April 13th, 2010

Sometime in 2008, the Lord showed me a movie on PBS titled, "The Nun's Story". While I am not catholic and not called to be a nun, there were amazing profound TRUTHS in this movie that would well be heeded for OUR journey of death to self, words that could not be denied or ignored. (Nuns are also considered wed to the Lord, brides - in fact in the movie when they finish their novice training, the candidates come to get their full habit (outfit) while wearing wedding gowns and walking down the aisle - very prophetic!) The Lord then had me buy the book (very difficult to find BUT FOR GOD who found one for me at an obscure little book shop somewhere on the East coast!). He has had me watch the movie a few times since then - and again this past Tuesday (04-13-10). Walking our walk with our Lord is not about religion and rituals - those things you can toss aside. HOWEVER there is truth in the way the nuns were portrayed...how they were taught to live in humility. The Lord had me write down some of the lines that you should prayerfully consider:

"...strive toward perfection by inner silence - to make your self available to constant conversation with God."

"one should never engage in useless conversation"

"never ask for anything for ourselves."

"it is not a life of refuge from the world; it is a life of sacrifice, a life against nature - a never ending struggle for perfection in Him."

"poverty...chastity...obedience"

"the sacrifices expected are only attainable if we make them with love."

"we can endure greater sacrifice because the object of our love is our Lord Jesus Christ."

"....must be a constant alertness against imperfection..."

"perfection = for the love of God the believer is obedient in all things unto death."

"despise the vain pleasures of this world for closer union with God."

"divest yourselves of the vanity of this world and receive for yourselves the habit of humility"

"...the more I try, the more imperfect I become."

"When I succeed at obedience, I fail because of pride for succeeding."

"Don't forget - you are only an instrument - in yourself you are nothing until you are lifted up."

"You must learn to accept with love whatever comes to you."

"There is no resting place where obedience is easier, where it becomes natural, where the struggle ends...."

Half way through the movie, the main character finally gets to go to the Congo on a missions assignment...she has struggled through all of her years of training as a nun - as she is leaving she says to her earthly father, "It will be so much easier in the Congo to remember I am nothing. There'll be no worldly associations in the jungle." We must learn this IN THE MIDST OF ALL - not when we are safely hidden away in our caves - although time in the cave CAN be a strong beginning and is meant to be so - but we must learn to WALK IT in the midst of everything.)

"...a lesson we all have to learn - disappointment."

At one point the main character finally lays on her face before God and proclaims, "What I do from now on is between You and me alone." Sadly, this is HOW IT SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE BEEN FROM THE BEGINNING OF HER WALK.

"....perfect obedience as Christ practiced it..."

These are here because the Lord said to post them. They may speak to you, or not. Don't just go out and buy the movie or try to find the book - your walk is not my walk (and vice versa) - the Lord may use this in your life - or not. ASK HIM as in all things!

MIRACLE AND CONFIRMATION - 04-13-2010

A sister in the Lord sent this to me today:

Miracle:

My friend's son, Josh, (5 years old, had a kidney transplant, I had mentioned him before) is in the hospital. Sunday his parents rushed him to the hospital because he was having a very difficult time breathing and he had a fever of 105. I was on my way home from northern PA as soon as his mom called to tell me. Immediately I drove down to Delaware, even though I knew visiting hours were over. Thankfully, I was allowed to go into his hospital room. When I got there, his oxygen saturation rates were 90%, his heart rate was 120 and his fever was 105. They had started him on Tylenol but that's it. I knew that we needed to lay hands on him.

The Lord lead us to get on our knees and lay hands on his body and pray over him. The Spirit spoke through me and we were in fervent prayer as He had me lead a prayer of life, healing and protection over Josh. Im not sure how long we prayed for. When the Lord had me stop praying to look up at his numbers again, his heart rate was back down to 78 (normal), and his oxygen saturation rates were 100%! The nurse came in at that moment and took his fever and it was 98! The nurse was very surprised and said there was no way that the Tylenol would have kicked in yet. Josh's parents and I were in tears and immediately went into a prayer of thanksgiving and praise! He is still in the hospital just to keep an eye on him as he recovers fully, but his rates are still normal. Oh, and as I was leaving I gave him a kiss on his forehead (which now felt cool!), told him I loved him and asked him if he was ok...ON HIS OWN, he said, "Yup, Im ok. I've got God in my heart."

(end miracle testimony)

Confirmation (she continues):

I don't know if you remember, but awhile back when Josh was sick, you told me that there would be a moment when I would lay hands on Josh in the name of the Lord and the Lord would use me as an instrument of healing for this little guy.

(I remember the child, do not remember the word He spoke to you through me - He does not have me remember all the things He prophesies via me, but I am just an instrument, and it's not for me to hang onto - I'm sure it is written down and in one of the binders here....for His glory).

ALL GLORY HONOR AND PRAISE TO JESUS - may He seal and keep Josh for His glory.

LIFE IMITATES ART?

The Lord has had me praying for actress Sandra Bullock for years. For those who remember this ministry's website, she was on a list of several celebrities who are on 'my' watch.

Recently Sandra experienced deep humiliation - her love for her husband, Jesse James, so genuine. And he betrayed her. He even sat in many public venues while she gushed on and on from her heart her love for him - and he, sitting there, knowing of his many acts of betrayal.

The Lord has been telling you and telling you that death and life are in the power of your tongue; and that that which you allow into your gates are the things that remain in your spirit. In the case of an actress (but only as an example for ALL of us 'act' in certain ways throughout our day - going about our lives in certain ways -) that which she has portrayed has truly come to fruition in her real life.

In 1998 Sandra's movie "Forces of Nature" featured a plane skidding off a runway. In 2005 her personal plane skidded off a runway and she could have been killed (a miracle (they said) that she survived).

In 2000 she was in a movie called "28 Days". Prior to the filming, she went to a rehab facility in Arizona to research her role. Today (2010) her husband has checked himself into that exact facility for rehab.

In 1998 she starred in the movie "Hope Floats". During the opening scene she is a normal housewife who goes on a national televised talk show, thinking she is going to get a makeover, but instead her best friend announces to her in front of the world that she has had an affair with Sandra's onscreen husband. The movie shows her pain and humiliation and heartbreak. In 2010.....in real life....

She played roles - followed scripts. But truly it is NOT life imitating art. She is reaping what she sowed - she planted these seeds and they bloomed fully in her life. This does not diminish the cheating lying etc on the part of her husband - but she has to take responsibility for her part.

Worldly folks will not understand this. But it is indeed truth.

The Lord has shown me so many instances where actors/actresses experience the exact things they portrayed in film.

It doesn't help that Sandra also played a witch in "Practical Magic" (1998) and was in movies involving strange phenomenon about the dead in "Premonition" and "Lake House".

We have a set path the Lord has set before us. We can choose to walk that path - or not. When we do whatever we want, we reap the fruit thereof (and truly reap His fruit when we walk the faithful path as well). If you involve yourself in things that have nothing to do with God, you will reap the consequences of that. Just as these folks portraying roles, acting out those lives, speaking the lines - can't expect it not to manifest in their real lives.

You cannot then blame the Lord (which most people do) for that which you reap. YOU have to ask the Lord to REVEAL all the hidden depths of your heart, all the things that are part of you and all that you say and do that is apart from Him, apart from His perfect will.

Does that mean they ('famous' actors/actresses) shouldn't act? YES! If it is a role that God did not ordain, if it does not portray the things of the Kingdom of Heaven, does not glorify Almighty God. "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord". This is not just for singing - this is for the words of our mouths, the actions of our bodies - all things must be for Him or it is against Him! There is no middle ground.

SO MANY tragic stories of people reaping what they sowed. One that Holy Spirit brings to mind is Heath Ledger - who portrayed the Joker in "The Dark Night" - everyone around him said the role changed him - emotionally, psychologically...that he became dark, moody, then having trouble sleeping, having nightmares, using drugs for anxiety, nerves, sleeping....certainly those who have acted in evil films have suffered greatly. So many reports of the things documented that have occurred during filming the things of darkness, and after. You would probably be surprised to know the number of deaths and lives of darkness and ruin that has happened to those portraying these roles, even musician singing dark lyrics. NOT A SURPRISE to those who know the ways of the spiritual realm but truly 'coincidence' to those who know not The Lord.

OUR LIFE ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES! You do not know how many demons you have in your life 'merely' (there is no small deed/thing) from watching a tv show or singing the wrong song or doing the wrong job, or associating with the wrong people....

You need to ask the Lord to open your spiritual eyes, that you might see the powers and principalities attached to everything in your world.

DOES IT NOT MAKE THE MOST SENSE TO WALK THE WALK JESUS HAS FOR YOU? HOW MUCH SUFFERING WOULD YOU RELIEVE IN YOUR LIFE?! (APART FROM ORDAINED SUFFERING TO DIE DAILY AND PARTAKE FROM HIS CUP) - - - YOU ARE GOING THROUGH THINGS THAT SURE, THE DEVIL IS RESPONSIBLE FOR BUT THAT YOU INVITED IN!

For the believer, most important (more important than doing a thing just so you won't suffer) - - you do what is right because Jesus asks it of you. You walk the walk He has laid out before you because of His love for you - for truly He is worthy of your obedience, your righteousness, your praise...you honor HIM when you live in His perfect will.

HE DESERVES THE GLORY FROM YOUR OBEDIENCE

GET IT RIGHT....times almost up!

Psalm 150:6
Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD

Proverbs 18:21
Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

Proverbs 4:23
Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.

Psalms 101:3
I will set before my eyes no vile thing. The deeds of faithless men I hate; they will not cling to me.

Psalms 97:10
Let those who love the LORD hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

Matthew 6:22-23
"The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!

Ecclesiastes 7:21-22
Do not pay attention to every word people say, or you may hear your servant cursing you-- for you know in your heart that many times you yourself have cursed others.

2 Timothy 4:3-4
For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths.

Matthew 12:34
For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks.

A fool's mouth is his undoing, and his lips are a snare to his soul.

Ephesians 4:29-30

Psalms 17:3
Though you probe my heart and examine me at night, though you test me, you will find nothing; I have resolved that my mouth will not sin.

Proverbs 21:23
He who guards his mouth and his tongue keeps himself from calamity.

James 3:2-12
We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check. When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. Likewise the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell. All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and creatures of the sea are being tamed and have been tamed by man, but no man can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God's likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? My brothers, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.

Ezekiel 36:26-27
I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws.

Matthew 12:36-37
But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken. For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned."

Matthew 5: 8
Blessed are the pure of heart for they shall see God.

HIS CRUCIFIXION - YOUR CRUCIFIXION - introduction March 18th, 2010

Since the beginning of this ministry online (when the Lord first permitted me to speak publicly) - the message has always been the same, and has never changed: die to self, it's not about you only HIM, it is an honor to be chosen to partake of His sufferings, drink of His cup....no compromise, trust the Lord, walk in His perfect will no matter what the cost - and - let Him crucify your flesh, so that He can then rule and reign through you....all things are at the hands of the Lord who wants only the best for you, but sometimes the cost is high.

Who are we to NOT be crucified, if it is Him who we are to reflect? We, His disciples, followers, servants and handmaidens must experience all that HE experienced, allowing HIM to kill our flesh so that He can rule and reign through us. That means we have to go through what He went through. For most, Father God will not require that we be literally nailed to a cross - BUT there IS a crucifixion, a death (sometimes more than one!) that does indeed bring you to YOUR Gethsemane and crucifixion, which ultimately leads to your resurrection living. You WILL be mocked, scorned, spit upon, lied about, falsely accused, hated...ESPECIALLY BY BELIEVERS (so-called Christians - - - more on this later). The initial point is to introduce you to this major teaching (which is RARELY TAUGHT ANYWHERE). Less than one percent of those claiming to be Christians have ever allowed the Lord to crucify them. It is not seen as an honor...far from it. Instead, it is seen as something to run from.

You should consider it an honor that the Lord has chosen to share this with you.
Many are called but FEW are chosen.

There will be more - it should be the most powerful thing you have ever heard from His throne room.

Let Him prepare you to receive - repent and have Him wash you from all unrighteousness.

Most people do not even realize the extent to which He suffered (even as brutal as Passion of the Christ was, there is no way to show a man whose body is so brutalized and battered that it is as if His flesh was ground beef, seeing the very bones - a very miracle that He was able to get to Golgotha and even live to BE crucified). That movie also omits the Gethsemane experience - critical to the coming teaching also - and the Lord told the story so fully and completely, I doubt any of you have heard it told as He tells it.

So it begins - - - your preparation to die, to understand crucifixion and partaking of His cup in a way you may not have before....this isn't something to be taken lightly.

So it begins.

THUS SAITH THE LORD: "REACH FOR MY LIGHT"

THUS SAITH THE LORD:

"While darkness seems to be getting darker, more oppressive, MY LIGHT is getting brighter, more liberating. The time and opportunity to walk with me in MY LIGHT is coming to a close as judgment upon My church draweth nigh and now is. You will be caught holding the bag - a bag of works and flesh and compromise and all things anti-christ, or you shall be found carrying My glory, My grace, My mercy, as you are abiding in Me with a heart wholly given unto My deeds and My purposes. Your darkness will crush you - destroy you - therefore reach for MY LIGHT while it is day....let Me resurrect your life from the valley of your own destruction. For resurrection life ONLY exists as you fully walk through the valley of crucifixion - a crucifixion like unto My own. NOTHING LESS WILL SUFFICE, and you must meet Me there. I await your permission to be crucified as I was crucified, which will then give Me permission to raise you from the dead. Choose LIFE, that you might live - in Me, about Me, through Me, by Me, for Me, because of Me, for My Glory. "

Who has ears to hear, let him hear what the Lord saith in this critical hour.

"Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." Isaiah 55:6-7
