Coming into the things of Me in a new way can be quite startling saith the Lord. But I assure you it will be quite a pleasant surprise. For the way in which I will move in this season is different beloved, it is new, and it is exciting. I may bring about the same changes in and around you as I have done with others before you, but the way I will do it is new. It is designed to keep you excited, exhilarated and in awe of Me. You will dance for joy, you will sing with a new zeal, and you will enjoy Me in this season as I enjoy you saith the Lord. Be prepared. Thus saith the Lord.

Zephaniah 3:14-17
"Sing, O daughter of Zion; shout, O Israel; be glad and rejoice with all the heart, O daughter of Jerusalem. The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more. In that day it shall be said to Jerusalem, Fear thou not: and to Zion, Let not thine hands be slack. The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing."

Press on, press on saith the Lord. There are things you have labored for for quite a while. Things you have travailed in the spirit for that you have not quite seen as yet. You are in the last hour of your labor saith the Lord. For the things you have labored for are about to be birthed. One last mighty push and it shall be done. Do not weary in this final round but press on. I promise you that your labor shall in no wise compare to the glory of that which you are birthing saith the Lord. Press on. Thus saith the Lord.

Phillipians 3:12-14
"Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."

My children, many of you are coming into the realization of your weaknesses in this hour saith the Lord, and your souls are in conflict. For I am bringing you into situations that will reveal them clearly, as a magnifying glass before your face will reveal every speck, every pore. In every instance you must choose beloved; either to allow the enemy to condemn, deny, or defend, or to surrender to Me and allow My strength to be made perfect in your weakness. Choose wisely beloved. Despise not the weak moments that you are experiencing, but recognize them as opportunities I present for My strength to be perfected in you. Delight in your weaknesses beloved. Thus saith the Lord.

2 Corinthians 12:10
"That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."

Embrace the changes I am bringing about in your life beloved. The new directions I give to you and the new paths I set before you on are all designed to bring your spirit man to higher heights and deeper depths saith the Lord. They are also designed to bring to fruition My purpose and destiny that I have placed within you. Step into the changes. Embrace them. Fear not for it is I, the Lord that moves you. Thus saith the Lord.

2 Corinthians 3:18
"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."

In a vision, I saw a person covered in a sticky substance. The person was getting more and more frustrated, tired, and angry as he/she tried to pull the substance off their body, only to have it cling again. The more this person tried, the more frustrated they got, but he/she got no closer to being free from the substance and then the Lord spoke.

Not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit saith the Lord of Hosts. For the situation you are in is not of man, but of powers and principalities and spiritual wickedness in high places. You cannot extricate yourself by human efforts beloved, but only by the power of My Spirit saith the Lord. Recognize where you are, understand the battle and whom you fight against, and move by the Power of My Spirit saith the Lord. Break away from everything that seeks to keep you down and distracted. Break away from everything that seeks to keep you busy doing naught saith the Lord, and come up higher. Remember My yoke is easy and My burden is light. Take My yoke upon you and come up higher. Thus saith the Lord.

Galatians 3:1-3
"You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by observing the law, or by believing what you heard? Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?"

Can anything good come out of you? Many have said. Have I not shown them beloved? Have I not revealed the perfection of what I have created in you? Can you not now perceive the marvelous work I have done? Be still this day and examine your heart beloved. Look upon yourself and delight in yourself. For I have created a thing of incredible beauty and perfect perfection. I have opened the garden I have placed within you and your beauty radiates throughout all the world. From deep within your heart fragrance and purity flow, truth and compassion show, and love and mercy grow. You are the crown of My creation and this day I crown you My creation, My heart, My bride with much humility and grace. That you may see and you may know what the world already sees and knows, the truth about yourself. No more shall you look upon yourself with anything but delight beloved. Behold yourself in Me as I reveal all. Thus saith the Lord.

2 Corinthians 2-4
"You yourselves are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by everybody. You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. Such confidence as this is ours through Christ before God."

Cease from your struggles and enter into My rest beloved. I have brought you out of great strife and stress. Your spirit is tired and your soul weary. Enter into My rest. Know that in this time of resting, I will restore and replenish all that was stolen from you beloved. I will rejuvenate and bring new zeal to areas in your life that have been sorely tried and tested. Do not look back beloved for you have triumphed over that which has sought to destroy you. Receive what I bring to you in this time of rest and come fully into Me saith the Lord. This day I exchange My joy for your mourning and My beauty for your ashes. Receive and let your joy be full. Thus saith the Lord.

Psalm 71:20
"Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth you will again bring me up."

Incredible shall be your walk this day beloved. For you shall not focus on the pebbles and the cracks in the road beloved but rather you shall navigate skillfully through them. I have sharpened and honed your spiritual alertness to perfection beloved. There is nothing on your path that you cannot triumph over saith the Lord. There is nothing on your path that you will not be fully aware of and capable of circum-navigating yourself around. This path I do not smooth, though it is straight beloved. For I desire to test the perfection of your spiritual strength beloved. Not to prove it to Myself beloved for I know what I have done in you, but to demonstrate to you what I have placed in you and to give you a confidence. Great faith, great spiritual dexterity, and great wisdom you shall demonstrate on this journey beloved. Rejoice! Thus saith the Lord.

1 Peter 5:10
"And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast."

Like a storm your emotions rise up against your spirit beloved. But I tell you the truth, it is a storm in a teacup. For such is the strength of your spirit in Me saith the Lord. For I have opened the eyes and ears to your spirit and I have expanded the realm in which you see and hear spiritually. For all things are open to you beloved and all things are possible to them that believe, but you can only lay hold of that which you can see in the spirit. Today, you can see much more than yesterday beloved. Today you can take hold of much more and I have given you the strength to resist the resistance of the enemy. From the east and from the west, from the north and from the south, they shall rise up against you in an effort to narrow your vision once again beloved. They shall try to weaken you on every front. But I have prepared you beloved, I have strengthened you greatly, and I have expanded your territory. Go forth and take hold of that which you see. Claim it and give Me glory. Thus saith the Lord.

Isaiah 60:4,5
"Lift up your eyes round about you and see! They all gather themselves together, they come to you. Your sons shall come from afar, and your daughters shall be carried and nursed in the arms.

Then you shall see and be radiant, and your heart shall thrill and tremble with joy [at the glorious deliverance] and be enlarged; because the abundant wealth of the [Dead] Sea shall be turned to you, unto you shall the nations come with their treasures."

In a vision, I saw a lighted walkway in open space, as in a beauty pageant. Only here the world was the spectator. I saw people lining up and begin to step on the walkway one after another. As the first one stepped on, fireworks, horns, trumpets and every kind of musical sounds you can imagine, and some you can't began. It was as if a great coronation was taking place, a coming out of obscurity into sudden, great limelight. Then the Lord spoke.

My children, it is time for you to be known to the world. It is time for you to be recognized as My sons and daughters, My beloved children. I am setting the stage My beloveds. I am preparing your debut, your coming out. I make everything perfect. I plan every detail and I harmonize every action. At the sound of the trumpet, you will begin to step out into the arena I have prepared for your unveiling. You will come into your own in great splendor and honor, for I do it beloved. It is time for My true servants to walk in the light of their true calling. The world shall see. The world shall recognize. The world shall know who you are. Be ready beloveds. The time is at hand. Thus saith the Lord.

Romans 8:18,19,22
"For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now."

In a vision I kept seeing what looked like a jack-in-the-box. But every time the lid would open when I least expect it and something scary would pop out. Then the Lord spoke.

Be on your guard at all times beloved. Be alert to My Spirit and be obedient. For this portion of your walk with Me shall depend totally on your obedience to see you through. I have strengthened you for such a time as this. I have made you to stand in perilous times and in the midst of treacherous deeds. Nothing shall overcome you beloved. Nothing shall bring you low. Know that which is coming against you in this hour cannot prosper beloved. I have already purposed this. The one who seeks to destroy shall be using surprise tactics. Suddenly he shall pop up in mighty wickedness with the evil intent to cause you to stumble, but know that this is when I shall send My angels to guard you. For the one in whom you stand does not stumble beloved. Be of good cheer saith the Lord. Thus saith the Lord.

Psalm 91:11,12
"For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone."

Search deep within beloved for I have placed hidden treasures for you to seek. They are in you and waiting to be revealed. Do not go looking around you and in others for the things I have already embued you with, but look within yourself. Always within beloved. For I have created you perfect, with My own hands I have made you, and in you I have placed great and marvellous things. Seek them out beloved. Seek deep within for My Spirit indwells you and He shall reveal all I have placed within. Thus saith the Lord.

Proverbs 25:2
"It is the glory of God to conceal a thing, but the glory of kings is to search out a thing."

Sticking to a format or formula in this hour, will severely limit you beloved. I am a God who loves surprises and I love to surprise you beloved. When you expect Me to come one way, I move in another. When you keep looking for Me from one direction, I come from another direction. I do not do this to confuse you beloved, but to keep you open to Me, all of Me, and to not limit Me. I am bringing about a change in you that will re-shape the way you think and the way you perceive Me beloved. This will open up your heart and soul to move in the supernatural; to expect the unexpected and to act and react in new and exciting ways. I am about to change your perspective on who I am and how I move and in that I will change your perspective on who you are in Me and how you can move. Expect it beloved. Thus saith the Lord.

1 Kings 19:11-12
"And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice."

The keys to the kingdom were given unto you to use beloved. Use them and open the doors which have been closed before you by the enemy. For I have given you the keys to open that which you will be required to go through to fulfill your destiny beloved. It is one of a kind destiny. It is unique. The doors you will walk through, none can go with you, save I beloved. Insert and turn the key at every lock beloved for one leads into another. Walk through the first door with steady, sure steps and behold...a new turn of events, a new adventure, a new glory I bring you into saith the Lord. Walk with Me beloved. Let nothing deter or distract you for My instructions are clear and My Will will be done. Leave that which is in the past, in the past. Think not on the future, for it has not been revealed to thee as yet. Move when I move beloved. Thus saith the Lord.

Matthew 16:19
"I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven."

The position of your soul in relation to your spirit and body is of paramount importance beloved. For this determines whether a man lives or dies. If your soul is not submitted to your spirit beloved, then your mind cannot be renewed. For all things are brought from Me through your spirit beloved. You must receive into your soul, what I have placed in your spirit, lest you die. For the soul that will not receive from the spirit will sin beloved and soon die. As a man thinketh, so is he, and a man thinketh sin and doeth sin beloved because that is the sinful nature he has lest His mind be renewed through his spirit by the power of My Spirit. Watch over your souls beloved. Guard it carefully. Let the thoughts in your mind be what is in the mind of your spirit beloved. For the spirit that is born of Me has life beloved. The spirit that is born of me knows My thoughts and receives them beloved. Allow your souls to receive from your spirit beloved, and discern the thoughts that are of My Spirit which is within you, from the external sources. Receive and give out the life that I have placed within you that you may live. Thus saith the Lord.

Revelation 3
"I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your deeds complete in the sight of my God. Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you. Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy. He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life."

Ezekiel 18:20
"The soul who sins is the one who will die."
