WHERE ARE YOUR AFFECTIONS
You affections determine your directions. There are only two places you can place your affections, above and below. Understanding what is above and what is beneath is the key to making sure which direction you are headed. Are you headed toward light or darkness. If you are comfortable in places of darkness and with people of darkness, then you surely have, misplaced affections.
There is a big difference between loving sinners and being comfortable with them. In order to be comfortable with them, you must, enjoy what they enjoy what they enjoy, and talk about the things they talk about, and like the things they like. This involves your emotions or affections. You will always follow your affections.
If you remain comfortable with those living in sin, the time will come when you no longer love the the things I love and hate the things I hate. You will choose to follow your affections into darkness. I am very emphatic when I say,"set your affections on things above", not on things below. I am not just referring to material goods, but the relationships that lead, to the love of material goods.
The wisest man that ever lived, was led into darkness because of his relationship with women in darkness. His affections were turned from above to beneath. Are you wiser than he? The strongest man that ever lived was led into literal darkness when his eyes were poked out, because of his affections for a woman of darkness. Are you stronger than he?
Some men and women of darkness are very nice and kind and alluring to be with, but their affection is not after Me. If you are not openly sharing your love for Me and the things above, then your being affected negatively and slowly being drawn away. The enemy may convince you that you are there to win them, but they are winning you, if you are hiding your love for Me under a bushel.
Your love for Me is the dividing factor, when you keep bringing My name up, they will be forced to choose between darkness and light. If they choose darkness they will leave you. If they choose light, you have won them. If you do not bring My name up each time, then they have no choice but to remain in darkness because your light is hidden to them.
If you are truly Mine you will be causing people to choose between light and darkness where ever you go. Your very presence will show light and their hearts will have to decide. There is great joy and great sorrow as I bring the sword and separate even close family members. The sword cut between light and darkness. Those who refuse the light, are cut off from those that choose the light. As I separate the old relationships, I will replace them with new ones and the light will get brighter and brighter.
Then the world will see the difference because of the love you have for each one living in the light. Out of these relationships My glory will eventually fill the whole earth.
Judges 16:19-21 (AMP)
And she made Samson sleep upon her knees, and she called a man and caused him to shave off the seven braids of his head. Then she began to torment Samson, and his strength went from him. [20] She said, The Philistines are upon you, Samson! And he awoke out of his sleep and said, I will go out as I have time after time and shake myself free. For Samson did not know that the Lord had departed from him. [21] But the Philistines laid hold of him, bored out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza and bound him with two bronze fetters; and he ground at the mill in the prison.
1 Kings 11:2-11 (AMP)
They were of the very nations of whom the Lord said to the Israelites, You shall not mingle with them, neither shall they mingle with you, for surely they will turn away your hearts after their gods. Yet Solomon clung to these in love. [3] He had 700 wives, princesses, and 300 concubines, and his wives turned away his heart from God. [4] For when Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods, and his heart was not perfect (complete and whole) with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father. [5] For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abominable idol of the Ammonites! [6] Solomon did evil in the sight of the Lord, and went not fully after the Lord, as David his father did. [7] Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abominable idol of Moab, on the hill opposite Jerusalem, and for Molech the abominable idol of the Ammonites. [8] And he did so for all of his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods. [9] And the Lord was angry with Solomon because his heart was turned from the Lord, the God of Israel, Who had appeared to him twice, [10] And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods, but he did not do what the Lord commanded. [11] Therefore the Lord said to Solomon, Because you are doing this and have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have commanded you, I will surely rend the kingdom from you and will give it to your servant!
Matthew 10:32-40 (AMP)
Therefore, everyone who acknowledges Me before men and confesses Me out of a state of oneness with Me, I will also acknowledge him before My Father Who is in heaven and confess that I am abiding in him. [33] But whoever denies and disowns Me before men, I also will deny and disown him before My Father Who is in heaven. [34] Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword. [35] For I have come to part asunder a man from his father, and a daughter from her mother, and a newly married wife from her mother-in-law-- [36] And a man''s foes will be they of his own household. [37] He who loves and takes more pleasure in father or mother more than in Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves and takes more pleasure in son or daughter more than in Me is not worthy of Me; [38] And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me cleave steadfastly to Me, conforming wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying also is not worthy of Me. [39] Whoever finds his lower life will lose it the higher life, and whoever loses his lower life on My account will find it the higher life. [40] He who receives and welcomes and accepts you receives and welcomes and accepts Me, and he who receives and welcomes and accepts Me receives and welcomes and accepts Him Who sent Me.
James 4:4 (AMP)
You are like unfaithful wives having illicit love affairs with the world and breaking your marriage vow to God! Do you not know that being the world''s friend is being God''s enemy? So whoever chooses to be a friend of the world takes his stand as an enemy of God.
Luke 11:33-36 (AMP)
No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or crypt or under a bushel measure, but on a lampstand, that those who are coming in may see the light. [34] Your eye is the lamp of your body; when your eye (your conscience) is sound and fulfilling its office, your whole body is full of light; but when it is not sound and is not fulfilling its office, your body is full of darkness. [35] Be careful, therefore, that the light that is in you is not darkness. [36] If then your entire body is illuminated, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright with light, as when a lamp with its bright rays gives you light.
Colossians 3:1-4 (AMP)
IF THEN you have been raised with Christ to a new life, thus sharing His resurrection from the dead, aim at and seek the rich, eternal treasures that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. [2] And set your minds and keep them set on what is above (the higher things), not on the things that are on the earth. [3] For as far as this world is concerned you have died, and your new, real life is hidden with Christ in God. [4] When Christ, Who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in the splendor of His glory.
John 3:19-21 (AMP)
The basis of the judgment (indictment, the test by which men are judged, the ground for the sentence) lies in this: the Light has come into the world, and people have loved the darkness rather than and more than the Light, for their works (deeds) were evil. [20] For every wrongdoer hates (loathes, detests) the Light, and will not come out into the Light but shrinks from it, lest his works (his deeds, his activities, his conduct) be exposed and reproved. [21] But he who practices truth who does what is right comes out into the Light; so that his works may be plainly shown to be what they are--wrought with God divinely prompted, done with God''s help, in dependence upon Him.
2 Corinthians 6:14 (AMP)
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers do not make mismated alliances with them or come under a different yoke with them, inconsistent with your faith. For what partnership have right living and right standing with God with iniquity and lawlessness? Or how can light have fellowship with darkness?
1 John 1:7 (AMP)
But if we really are living and walking in the Light, as He Himself is in the Light, we have true, unbroken fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses (removes) us from all sin and guilt keeps us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations.

I AM A DETAILED GOD
I AM A DETAILED GOD
For every creation of mine, there are a millions details that establish it as a complete entity. When I create something, it takes human scientists, dozens of lifetimes to study the details, yet they never are able to fully understand the secret to the inner life, in the creation.
I love to confound the wise, with the simple. The details of My creation are so complex and interwoven that no human brain will ever be able to comprehend the whole. Using the same brain I have created, they have come to the conclusion that I do not exist. This brings them to the level of a fool.
Using these details, I very carefully plan your life in Me. I am appalled, that in your human state, using your created brain, you fear that I will miss the details in your life. The fear of paying the bills, of caring for your child, of keeping your car running. The fear of missing out, and a million, "what ifs" will bring your calling to a screeching hault. "What if" what? I should miss a detail. I am the God of details so fine your strongest microscopes fail to reveal the nucleus of life's core.
In order to have faith that pleases Me, you will need to trust Me with the details. It is the fear of details that stunt your growth. I have heard you ask, "who's going to pay the bills"? Do you think I have not calculated them into my call? How foolish can you be? Your fear of starvation is an abomination to Me. Your insulting the creator of the universe, with your foolish unbelief. For this reason you are sitting on a shelf, unable to be used as I have planned.
You say you have faith to do the big things, without realizing you are stopped by your lack of faith for the small things. It is in the faith for details that I hide peace. Your lack of faith for details is what steals your peace. Listen to My words carefully: steps, thoughts, intents, hairs, breath, loaves, fish cooking on the fire, coin, frame, ant, to name a few. How detailed do I need to go, to get you off the shelf and back to your calling?
I am calling you to repent of this sin, before your fear permanently paralyzes you, leaving you helpless, on a carnal shelf forever. I desire to move you to new levels, but your fear has locked you into a slave mentality, tying you to your present level. For some, who desire My presence more than anything else, I will force your exodus from the lower levels. Do not be dismayed at sudden changes, or being fired, laid off, or the closing of your position. These are details I have planned to accomplish My purpose.
Perfect peace will come when you have complete faith that I am the God of detail and do ALL THINGS WELL.
Matthew 6:24-34 (AMP)
No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will stand by and be devoted to the one and despise and be against the other. You cannot serve God and mammon (deceitful riches, money, possessions, or whatever is trusted in). [25] Therefore I tell you, stop being perpetually uneasy (anxious and worried) about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink; or about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life greater in quality than food, and the body far above and more excellent than clothing? [26] Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they? [27] And who of you by worrying and being anxious can add one unit of measure (cubit) to his stature or to the span of his life? [28] And why should you be anxious about clothes? Consider the lilies of the field and learn thoroughly how they grow; they neither toil nor spin. [29] Yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his magnificence (excellence, dignity, and grace) was not arrayed like one of these. I Kings 10:4-7. [30] But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and green and tomorrow is tossed into the furnace, will He not much more surely clothe you, O you of little faith? [31] Therefore do not worry and be anxious, saying, What are we going to have to eat? or, What are we going to have to drink? or, What are we going to have to wear? [32] For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all. [33] But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides. [34] So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble.
1 Kings 17:2-6 (AMP)
And the word of the Lord came to him, saying, [3] Go from here and turn east and hide yourself by the brook Cherith, east of the Jordan. [4] You shall drink of the brook, and I have commanded the ravens to feed you there. [5] So he did according to the word of the Lord; he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, east of the Jordan. [6] And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning and bread and flesh in the evening, and he drank of the brook.
Luke 12:4-7 (AMP)
I tell you, My friends, do not dread and be afraid of those who kill the body and after that have nothing more that they can do. [5] But I will warn you whom you should fear: fear Him Who, after killing, has power to hurl into hell (Gehenna); yes, I say to you, fear Him! [6] Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And yet not one of them is forgotten or uncared for in the presence of God. [7] But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Do not be struck with fear or seized with alarm; you are of greater worth than many flocks of sparrows.
Proverbs 6:6-8 (AMP)
Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways and be wise!-- [7] Which, having no chief, overseer, or ruler, [8] Provides her food in the summer and gathers her supplies in the harvest.

ARE YOU A REAL FOREIGNER?
ARE YOU A REAL FOREIGNER?
Kingdom people are so different that you earthlings cannot understand them at all. Their language is so different even though many of the words are the same. Kingdom people speak from the spirit, while the others speak from their head. The spirit that is mature, will be able to speak fluently the language of the King. When you read My sayings and cannot comprehend what I am saying, you are not yet fully kingdom.
Let me test your kingdom language skill, do you understand this;
But I say to you, Do not resist the evil man who injures you; but if anyone strikes you on the right jaw or cheek, turn to him the other one too. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your undershirt (tunic), let him have your coat also. And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. Give to him who keeps on begging from you, and do not turn away from him who would borrow at interest from you. Matthew 5:39-42 (AMP)
When I say understand, I mean do you go to your head for an interpretation in order to slide past any discomfort to your flesh. Can you simply take Me at face value, without wrestling with the reality of what I am saying. if you can't I cannot use you at full capacity as a kingdom ambassador because you are still attempting to save your life. The fact is you are not dead yet. You limit My power by your refusal to die.
Any fear of what others will think or say, when I give a command is your loss. You dream of being used as a kingdom person, but hold on to the worlds value system. You will never understand kingdom language unless you adopt the kingdom value system. In the kingdom money and material goods have no value, that's why I say give your coat also. It's a demonstration that you are no longer of this world.
How could you ever think of giving you life, when you will not give your coat, or car or any other thing of value to an enemy. This is a test for you not them. Are you converted? Are you a new creature? Are you kingdom? These are serious questions you need answers too. I do not want to surprise you at judgment with a, depart from Me.
If you are having a hard time with My language then you are not spending enough time with Me. Did I place any value on the loaves and fishes, as they were being passed out? Did I tell the disciples, only one to a customer? No, because My source was endless. When you have the kingdom as your source then you never fear lack, because there is ALWAYS more. If you can deplete the kingdom storehouse then you are greater than Me.
You cannot just decide to speak kingdom language, your spirit must mature to the point of understanding. Only in the secret place will you learn My language and come to understand My sayings. Time with Me, will give you a heart of understanding and make you a stranger and pilgrim on earth.
John 17:9-26 (AMP)
I am praying for them. I am not praying (requesting) for the world, but for those You have given Me, for they belong to You. [10] All things that are Mine are Yours, and all things that are Yours belong to Me; and I am glorified in (through) them. They have done Me honor; in them My glory is achieved. [11] And now I am no more in the world, but these are still in the world, and I am coming to You. Holy Father, keep in Your Name in the knowledge of Yourself those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are one. [12] While I was with them, I kept and preserved them in Your Name in the knowledge and worship of You. Those You have given Me I guarded and protected, and not one of them has perished or is lost except the son of perdition Judas Iscariot--the one who is now doomed to destruction, destined to be lost, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. [13] And now I am coming to You; I say these things while I am still in the world, so that My joy may be made full and complete and perfect in them that they may experience My delight fulfilled in them, that My enjoyment may be perfected in their own souls, that they may have My gladness within them, filling their hearts. [14] I have given and delivered to them Your word (message) and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world do not belong to the world, just as I am not of the world. [15] I do not ask that You will take them out of the world, but that You will keep and protect them from the evil one. [16] They are not of the world (worldly, belonging to the world), just as I am not of the world. [17] Sanctify them purify, consecrate, separate them for Yourself, make them holy by the Truth; Your Word is Truth. [18] Just as You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. [19] And so for their sake and on their behalf I sanctify (dedicate, consecrate) Myself, that they also may be sanctified (dedicated, consecrated, made holy) in the Truth. [20] Neither for these alone do I pray it is not for their sake only that I make this request, but also for all those who will ever come to believe in (trust in, cling to, rely on) Me through their word and teaching, [21] That they all may be one, just as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, so that the world may believe and be convinced that You have sent Me. [22] I have given to them the glory and honor which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are one: [23] I in them and You in Me, in order that they may become one and perfectly united, that the world may know and definitely recognize that You sent Me and that You have loved them even as You have loved Me. [24] Father, I desire that they also whom You have entrusted to Me as Your gift to Me may be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory, which You have given Me Your love gift to Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. [25] O just and righteous Father, although the world has not known You and has failed to recognize You and has never acknowledged You, I have known You continually; and these men understand and know that You have sent Me. [26] I have made Your Name known to them and revealed Your character and Your very Self, and I will continue to make You known, that the love which You have bestowed upon Me may be in them felt in their hearts and that I Myself may be in them.
2 Corinthians 5:17 (AMP)
Therefore if any person is ingrafted in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old previous moral and spiritual condition has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!
Matthew 16:25-26 (AMP)
For whoever is bent on saving his temporal life his comfort and security here shall lose it eternal life; and whoever loses his life his comfort and security here for My sake shall find it life everlasting. [26] For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life his blessed life in the kingdom of God? Or what would a man give as an exchange for his blessed life in the kingdom of God?
Matthew 14:17-21 (AMP)
They said to Him, We have nothing here but five loaves and two fish. [18] He said, Bring them here to Me. [19] Then He ordered the crowds to recline on the grass; and He took the five loaves and the two fish, and, looking up to heaven, He gave thanks and blessed and broke the loaves and handed the pieces to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. [20] And they all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up twelve small hand baskets full of the broken pieces left over. [21] And those who ate were about 5,000 men, not including women and children.
Kingdom people are so different that you earthlings cannot understand them at all. Their language is so different even though many of the words are the same. Kingdom people speak from the spirit, while the others speak from their head. The spirit that is mature, will be able to speak fluently the language of the King.

[15] I do not ask that You will take them out of the world, but that You will keep and protect them from the evil one. [16] They are not of the world (worldly, belonging to the world), just as I am not of the world. [17] Sanctify them purify, consecrate, separate them for Yourself, make them holy by the Truth; Your Word is Truth. [18] Just as You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. [19] And so for their sake and on their behalf I sanctify (dedicate, consecrate) Myself, that they also may be sanctified (dedicated, consecrated, made holy) in the Truth. [20] Neither for these alone do I pray it is not for their sake only that I make this request, but also for all those who will ever come to believe in (trust in, cling to, rely on) Me through their word and teaching, [21] That they all may be one, just as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, so that the world may believe and be convinced that You have sent Me. [22] I have given to them the glory and honor which You have given Me, that they may be one even as We are one: [23] I in them and You in Me, in order that they may become one and perfectly united, that the world may know and definitely recognize that You sent Me and that You have loved them even as You have loved Me. [24] Father, I desire that they also whom You have entrusted to Me as Your gift to Me may be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory, which You have given Me Your love gift to Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. [25] O just and righteous Father, although the world has not known You and has failed to recognize You and has never acknowledged You, I have known You continually; and these men understand and know that You have sent Me. [26] I have made Your Name known to them and revealed Your character and Your very Self, and I will continue to make You known, that the love which You have bestowed upon Me may be in them felt in their hearts and that I Myself may be in them.
2 Corinthians 5:17 (AMP)
Therefore if any person is ingrafted in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old previous moral and spiritual condition has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!
Matthew 16:25-26 (AMP)
For whoever is bent on saving his temporal life his comfort and security here shall lose it eternal life; and whoever loses his life his comfort and security here for My sake shall find it life everlasting. [26] For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life his blessed life in the kingdom of God? Or what would a man give as an exchange for his blessed life in the kingdom of God?
Matthew 14:17-21 (AMP)
They said to Him, We have nothing here but five loaves and two fish. [18] He said, Bring them here to Me. [19] Then He ordered the crowds to recline on the grass; and He took the five loaves and the two fish, and, looking up to heaven, He gave thanks and blessed and broke the loaves and handed the pieces to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. [20] And they all ate and were satisfied. And they picked up twelve small hand baskets full of the broken pieces left over. [21] And those who ate were about 5,000 men, not including women and children.

THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS IN BABYLON
THE COST OF DOING BUSINESS IN BABYLON
The cost of doing kingdom business in a degenerate world is very high, because the value system is completely different. The value system is not based on the dollar but the character of the King. No lying, cheating, stealing, misrepresenting, half truths, or taking advantage of bad situations. The dollar has value only in the world and is used as barter to operate on a natural plain. The kingdom on the other hand operates on faith in the supernatural with a high set of values.
The sphere of love surrounds everything and nothing is done outside it. The dollar is cold and callus and leaves people empty and void of compassion. People end up spending it all trying to find kingdom love that cannot be bought or sold. Love giving, is foreign to the world because the heart is not kingdom. I am able to produce something from nothing so the dollar has no value.
When you operate business fully using the kingdom value system, the dollar is only a method of interaction with the degenerate world. If you are operating on that value system, then I confound the the world, with your lack of love for the dollar and it's power. When mammon has no power over you, I am able to move you to levels that make the rich jealous. They are spending their fortunes to reach those levels and still come up short.
Their god is money and when you treat it as nothing, by handing it out freely, it shakes their world to the core. What value you put on the dollar shows up when you run low. Do you run to the King in faith or to the world in panic. You may only have enough dollars to purchase five loves and two fish. The question is are you going to eat them and feed one or will you give them to me to feed five thousand plus yourself.
I did not do these, something from nothing miracles, to show off My power, but to demonstrate the power that I was placing in you. You are living on a level so far below the power I have placed in you, and it grieves My spirit, night and day. Your love level is so low you cannot see above the dollar. Kingdom people look for places to give, not places to save. Do not save money, redirect it according to My instruction.
Breaking free from mammon's power, while living in Babylon, will be the hardest task in your whole Christian walk. To do kingdom business in Babylon requires you live in constant contact with the King. The secret place must become your living room. Living in Babylon, for the kingdom person, is living inside the jaws of the devourer with no fear of being devoured.
Abiding in secret place is the only way to combat the fear factor. Do everything you can to stay there, for it it is the only place of safety in the days ahead. Surround yourself with those that abide there, because it will take two in agreement from now on. The world system is now in a tailspin and as a kingdom person you must not go down with it. As fiery darts of fear are thrown at you from all directions, use your combined faith, to quench them immediately, do not let them burn in your mind, even for a moment.
This is the good fight of faith and you must fight it, it is the cost of doing kingdom business in Babylon.
Matthew 6:24-34 (AMP)
No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will stand by and be devoted to the one and despise and be against the other. You cannot serve God and mammon (deceitful riches, money, possessions, or whatever is trusted in). [25] Therefore I tell you, stop being perpetually uneasy (anxious and worried) about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink; or about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life greater in quality than food, and the body far above and more excellent than clothing? [26] Look at the birds of the air; they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father keeps feeding them. Are you not worth much more than they? [27] And who of you by worrying and being anxious can add one unit of measure (cubit) to his stature or to the span of his life? [28] And why should you be anxious about clothes? Consider the lilies of the field and learn thoroughly how they grow; they neither toil nor spin. [29] Yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his magnificence (excellence, dignity, and grace) was not arrayed like one of these. I Kings 10:4-7. [30] But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and green and tomorrow is tossed into the furnace, will He not much more surely clothe you, O you of little faith? [31] Therefore do not worry and be anxious, saying, What are we going to have to eat? or, What are we going to have to drink? or, What are we going to have to wear? [32] For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all. [33] But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides. [34] So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble.
1 Timothy 6:11-21 (AMP)
But as for you, O man of God, flee from all these things; aim at and pursue righteousness (right standing with God and true goodness), godliness (which is the loving fear of God and being Christlike), faith, love, steadfastness (patience), and gentleness of heart. [12] Fight the good fight of the faith; lay hold of the eternal life to which you were summoned and for which you confessed the good confession of faith before many witnesses. [13] In the presence of God, Who preserves alive all living things, and of Christ Jesus, Who in His testimony before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I solemnly charge you [14] To keep all His precepts unsullied and flawless, irreproachable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Anointed One), [15] Which appearing will be shown forth in His own proper time by the blessed, only Sovereign (Ruler), the King of kings and the Lord of lords, [16] Who alone has immortality in the sense of exemption from every kind of death and lives in unapproachable light, Whom no man has ever seen or can see. Unto Him be honor and everlasting power and dominion. Amen (so be it). [17] As for the rich in this world, charge them not to be proud and arrogant and contemptuous of others, nor to set their hopes on uncertain riches, but on God, Who richly and ceaselessly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. [18] Charge them to do good, to be rich in good works, to be liberal and generous of heart, ready to share with others, [19] In this way laying up for themselves the riches that endure forever as a good foundation for the future, so that they may grasp that which is life indeed. [20] O Timothy, guard and keep the deposit entrusted to you! Turn away from the irreverent babble and godless chatter, with the vain and empty and worldly phrases, and the subtleties and the contradictions in what is falsely called knowledge and spiritual illumination. [21] For by making such profession some have erred (missed the mark) as regards the faith. Grace (divine favor and blessing) be with you all! Amen (so be it).
Proverbs 11:1 (AMP)
A FALSE balance and unrighteous dealings are extremely offensive and shamefully sinful to the Lord, but a just weight is His delight.
Proverbs 16:11-13 (AMP)
A just balance and scales are the Lord''s; all the weights of the bag are His work established on His eternal principles. [12] It is an abomination to God and men for kings to commit wickedness, for a throne is established and made secure by righteousness (moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation). [13] Right and just lips are the delight of a king, and he loves him who speaks what is right.
Ephesians 6:11-18 (AMP)
Put on God''s whole armor the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies, that you may be able successfully to stand up against all the strategies and the deceits of the devil. [12] For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood contending only with physical opponents, but against the despotisms, against the powers, against the master spirits who are the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere. [13] Therefore put on God''s complete armor, that you may be able to resist and stand your ground on the evil day of danger, and, having done all the crisis demands, to stand firmly in your place. [14] Stand therefore hold your ground, having tightened the belt of truth around your loins and having put on the breastplate of integrity and of moral rectitude and right standing with God, [15] And having shod your feet in preparation to face the enemy with the firm-footed stability, the promptness, and the readiness produced by the good news of the Gospel of peace. [16] Lift up over all the covering shield of saving faith, upon which you can quench all the flaming missiles of the wicked one. [17] And take the helmet of salvation and the sword that the Spirit wields, which is the Word of God. [18] Pray at all times (on every occasion, in every season) in the Spirit, with all manner of prayer and entreaty. To that end keep alert and watch with strong purpose and perseverance, interceding in behalf of all the saints (God''s consecrated people).
Matthew 18:18-20 (AMP)
Truly I tell you, whatever you forbid and declare to be improper and unlawful on earth must be what is already forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit and declare proper and lawful on earth must be what is already permitted in heaven. [19] Again I tell you, if two of you on earth agree (harmonize together, make a symphony together) about whatever anything and everything they may ask, it will come to pass and be done for them by My Father in heaven. [20] For wherever two or three are gathered (drawn together as My followers) in (into) My name, there I AM in the midst of them.

MOST THIRD WORLD CHRISTIANS ARE ASHAMED OF ME
MOST THIRD WORLD CHRISTIANS ARE ASHAMED OF ME
Most of My children live double lives. They divide their lives into two separate styles, secular and spiritual. Everything is different in each of the lives. The language is void of spiritual in the secular world and the spiritual world is filled with christianese lingo, never once heard in the secular world.
To pray in public is an embarrassment, including at meals where a silent prayer is muttered while make a phony effort to bow their head without looking like they are praying. At the same time, those serving other gods will even block the streets to pray on hands and knees three times a day. this lifestyle of spiritual embarrassment has caused the enemy to take over your nation.
How can you consider yourself one who is called by My name when you are ashamed to use My name ninety percent of your daily life? The problem is people have confessed with their mouth without believing in their hearts. Conversion has not yet taken place. True love for Me is missing. When you are truly in love, you want to let everyone know the name of that person, that has captured your heart.
True love cannot be contained or bottled up, it simply explodes in every environment. If you truly love Me you cannot live two lives, your whole life becomes spiritual. The reason you experience little persecution is not because you live in a free country, but that you are ashamed to use My name openly in that free country. There is no reason to persecute you, for you are one of them in their eyes, and it will surprise you to know in My eyes too.
Denying Me in more that saying, "I don't believe in Jesus", it is not opening your mouth and confessing Me before men.
Many say their job prevents them from using the name of Jesus, without thinking it may prevent Me from confessing them before My father in heaven. Check your heart each time you are hesitant to use My name, make sure you are not cooling off in your passionate love for Me.
Being wise as a serpent and being ashamed, have a fine carnal and spiritual line drawn between them, be sure it's the Spirit drawing the line and not your carnal fearful flesh. Remember My disciples died because they would not stop speaking My name. Compare that, to loosing your job, it does not compute here in the kingdom. When you stand before me and see what they get, you will wish you lost a thousand jobs for speaking My name.
Check your heart condition, return to your first love, so I can be proud of you, when you stand before Father.
Mark 8:36-38 (AMP)
For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life in the eternal kingdom of God? [37] For what can a man give as an exchange (a compensation, a ransom, in return) for his blessed life in the eternal kingdom of God? [38] For whoever is ashamed here and now of Me and My words in this adulterous (unfaithful) and preeminently sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when He comes in the glory (splendor and majesty) of His Father with the holy angels.
Romans 1:16 (AMP)
For I am not ashamed of the Gospel (good news) of Christ, for it is God''s power working unto salvation for deliverance from eternal death to everyone who believes with a personal trust and a confident surrender and firm reliance, to the Jew first and also to the Greek,
Luke 9:24 (AMP)
For whoever would preserve his life and save it will lose and destroy it, but whoever loses his life for My sake, he will preserve and save it from the penalty of eternal death.

I GOT YOU COVERED
I GOT YOU COVERED
Covering is protection that becomes a tremendous source of peace in times of danger. When death is staring you in the face, panic is inevitable, and nothing is worse than panic, in the face of death. Faith stares death in the face and makes it back down, when it is properly exercised. The death angel recognizes My covenant covering. When he sees you are in covenant with Me, through faith obedience, he bypasses you and your house.
The death angel has the power of death, but not over those under the blood covering of My Son. They are Mine bought with a price, but they have a free will to go and come at their choosing. However, to choose outside My will can prove fatal, when the death angel is nearby. Disobedience is always trouble, all the time and every time, with no exceptions, ever!
Many have died by sticking their head up from a fox hole at the wrong time. Wrong time for them, right time for the enemy. If the enemy has plotted your destruction, and you have let down your guard, by being stubborn, or to busy to meet with Me in the secret place, there is a chance he will succeed in your demise. My angels will watch over you in all your ways because of covenant, but willful disobedience through neglect of the secret place, limits their ability.
Walking from under your covering is dangerous when enemy arrows are falling. I have placed coverings of a Godly man in obedience to Me, over a woman who will submit to his Godly authority. I have placed a covering of Godly parents over obedient children, that assures a good outcome when they are older. I do not say children obey your parents as a passing thought, but as a warning of a future early death because of no covering.
The closer you choose to walk with Me and walk in covenant with Me, allowing Me complete access to your being, the greater your protection and guidance system will be. Remember these simple facts; Pride kills! Your way is the wrong way! Stubbornness is sure death in the end! A little disobedience will eventually eat up your whole body, soul and Spirit! Exposure, when the death angel is near is a bad situation to be in! You never know where he is standing.
Even if his arrows kill a thousand on the right side of you and ten thousand on your left, none will hit you, if you are in the secret place with Me. Because troubled times are soon coming on the earth, as never seen before, I am causing My kingdom people, to establish cities of refuge. Places, where the widow and orphan can find a covering, where the single mom can find full provision, and the rejected husband can find acceptance.
Places of sanctuary, in the sold out heart of kingdom people, where the divorcee, is no longer considered a leper, the ex-con becomes a trusted friend, the cripple are no longer labeled a handicap, the blind see through the eyes of another, and the deaf are protected by the hearing of a friend. A place where all skin color is seen as blood red, covered with a thick layer of in penetrable love.
I urge you to run for cover now and take full advantage of every covering, My blood, the secret place, a godly man, or godly parents. If you will do it My way, I got you covered!
Ruth 2:8-23 (AMP)
Then Boaz said to Ruth, Listen, my daughter, do not go to glean in another field or leave this one, but stay here close by my maidens. [9] Watch which field they reap, and follow them. Have I not charged the young men not to molest you? And when you are thirsty, go to the vessels and drink what the young men have drawn. [10] Then she fell on her face, bowing to the ground, and said to him, Why have I found favor in your eyes that you should notice me, when I am a foreigner? [11] And Boaz said to her, I have been made fully aware of all you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father and mother and the land of your birth and have come to a people unknown to you before. [12] The Lord recompense you for what you have done, and a full reward be given you by the Lord, the God of Israel, under Whose wings you have come to take refuge! [13] Then she said, Let me find favor in your sight, my lord. For you have comforted me and have spoken to the heart of your maidservant, though I am not as one of your maidservants. [14] And at mealtime Boaz said to her, Come here and eat of the bread and dip your morsel in the sour wine mixed with oil. And she sat beside the reapers; and he passed her some parched grain, and she ate until she was satisfied and she had some left for Naomi. [15] And when she got up to glean, Boaz ordered his young men, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and do not reproach her. [16] And let fall some handfuls for her on purpose and let them lie there for her to glean, and do not rebuke her. [17] So she gleaned in the field until evening. Then she beat out what she had gleaned. It was about an ephah of barley. [18] And she took it up and went into the town; she showed her mother-in-law what she had gleaned, and she also brought forth and gave her the food she had reserved after she was satisfied. [19] And her mother-in-law said to her, Where have you gleaned today? Where did you work? Blessed be the man who noticed you. So Ruth told her, The name of him with whom I worked today is Boaz. [20] And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed be he of the Lord who has not ceased his kindness to the living and to the dead. And Naomi said to her, The man is a near relative of ours, one who has the right to redeem us. [21] And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said to me also, Stay close to my young men until they have harvested my entire crop. [22] And Naomi said to Ruth, It is good, my daughter, for you to go out with his maidens, lest in any other field you be molested. [23] So she kept close to the maidens of Boaz, gleaning until the end of the barley and wheat harvests. And she lived with her mother-in-law.
Isaiah 4:1 (AMP)
AND IN that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread and provide our own apparel; only let us be called by your name to take away our reproach of being unmarried.
1 Corinthians 11:3 (KJV)
But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. 1 Corinthians 11:11-12 (AMP)
Nevertheless, in the plan of the Lord and from His point of view woman is not apart from and independent of man, nor is man aloof from and independent of woman; [12] For as woman was made from man, even so man is also born of woman; and all whether male or female go forth from God as their Author.
Ephesians 6:1-4 (AMP)
CHILDREN, OBEY your parents in the Lord as His representatives, for this is just and right. [2] Honor (esteem and value as precious) your father and your mother--this is the first commandment with a promise-- [3] That all may be well with you and that you may live long on the earth. [4] Fathers, do not irritate and provoke your children to anger do not exasperate them to resentment, but rear them tenderly in the training and discipline and the counsel and admonition of the Lord.
Hebrews 9:22 (AMP)
In fact under the Law almost everything is purified by means of blood, and without the shedding of blood there is neither release from sin and its guilt nor the remission of the due and merited punishment for sins.
Psalm 91:1-16 (AMP)
HE WHO dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty Whose power no foe can withstand. [2] I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I confidently trust! [3] For then He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. [4] Then He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings shall you trust and find refuge; His truth and His faithfulness are a shield and a buckler. [5] You shall not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the wicked) that flies by day, [6] Nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden death that surprise and lay waste at noonday. [7] A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you. [8] Only a spectator shall you be yourself inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High as you witness the reward of the wicked. [9] Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place, [10] There shall no evil befall you, nor any plague or calamity come near your tent. [11] For He will give His angels especial charge over you to accompany and defend and preserve you in all your ways of obedience and service. [12] They shall bear you up on their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone. [13] You shall tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the serpent shall you trample underfoot. [14] Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never. [15] He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. [16] With long life will I satisfy him and show him My salvation.
Covering is protection that becomes a tremendous source of peace in times of danger. When death is staring you in the face, panic is inevitable, and nothing is worse than panic, in the face of death. Faith stares death in the face and makes it back down, when it is properly exercised. The death angel recognizes My covenant covering. When he sees you are in covenant with Me, through faith obedience, he bypasses you and your house.
The death angel has the power of death, but not over those under the blood covering of My Son. They are Mine bought with a price, but they have a free will to go and come at their choosing. However, to choose outside My will can prove fatal, when the death angel is nearby. Disobedience is always trouble, all the time and every time, with no exceptions, ever!
Many have died by sticking their head up from a fox hole at the wrong time. Wrong time for them, right time for the enemy. If the enemy has plotted your destruction, and you have let down your guard, by being stubborn, or to busy to meet with Me in the secret place, there is a chance he will succeed in your demise. My angels will watch over you in all your ways because of covenant, but willful disobedience through neglect of the secret place, limits their ability.
Walking from under your covering is dangerous when enemy arrows are falling. I have placed coverings of a Godly man in obedience to Me, over a woman who will submit to his Godly authority. I have placed a covering of Godly parents over obedient children, that assures a good outcome when they are older. I do not say children obey your parents as a passing thought, but as a warning of a future early death because of no covering.
The closer you choose to walk with Me and walk in covenant with Me, allowing Me complete access to your being, the greater your protection and guidance system will be. Remember these simple facts; Pride kills! Your way is the wrong way! Stubbornness is sure death in the end! A little disobedience will eventually eat up your whole body, soul and Spirit! Exposure, when the death angel is near is a bad situation to be in! You never know where he is standing.
Even if his arrows kill a thousand on the right side of you and ten thousand on your left, none will hit you, if you are in the secret place with Me. Because troubled times are soon coming on the earth, as never seen before, I am causing My kingdom people, to establish cities of refuge. Places, where the widow and orphan can find a covering, where the single mom can find full provision, and the rejected husband can find acceptance.
Places of sanctuary, in the sold out heart of kingdom people, where the divorcee, is no longer considered a leper, the ex-con becomes a trusted friend, the cripple are no longer labeled a handicap, the blind see through the eyes of another, and the deaf are protected by the hearing of a friend. A place where all skin color is seen as blood red, covered with a thick layer of in penetrable love.
I urge you to run for cover now and take full advantage of every covering, My blood, the secret place, a godly man, or godly parents. If you will do it My way, I got you covered!

MY PLAN ALWAYS TRUMPS YOURS
MY PLAN ALWAYS TRUMPS YOURS
When you turn anything over to Me be sure you are ready for things to change. Make sure you want My will and not yours. Most, well meaning christians, are carnal and have no idea that I have a real plan that differs from anything they could come up with. Even the most dedicated christians on earth cannot stay in My plan, even by carefully studying every detail.
My plan is a kingdom plan and yours at best is an earthly plan. One of My plans, worth millions of dollars on earth, may be for the benefit on one little boy or girl that you have no knowledge of. Money means nothing to Me, for the whole world could not buy one soul.
I change the heart of kings for My purpose. I raise up and collapse corporations for My purpose. When you give Me anything, do not expect it to come out as you are planning. If you give Me your project then I take it serious, as an offering to Me. If it does not fit the kingdom purpose I will discard it and it will come to nothing. If the idea was birthed by My Spirit then you will see it quickly take shape when you give Me full control of it, and then you must flow with My Spirit.
What looks like unnecessary delays are My interventions to allow time for all things to be in order. During these delay times your patience is being built to a point where you will never want for a single thing. Don't turn over your day to Me unless you want Me to control your day. Don't turn over your money to Me unless you want Me to spend it. If you turn over your house to Me I will send strangers to take in.
Don't ever dedicate anything to Me and not let go if it. I see this as hypocrisy and will severely judge it. Don't try to manipulate Me to bring your plan to pass. Don't use spiritual words to cover a carnal idea, for I see past the idea, to the carnal heart that it came from. Most people who dedicate their life to Me, have no idea what they are doing, because I am going to turn their life upside down, to fit My purpose.
What looks like disaster is My blessing in disguise. What looks like turmoil is My peace removing the carnality from the plan, you dedicated to Me. Your good intentions will be rewarded but your best will still miss the mark, unless you walk in the spirit 100% of the time. To prevent missing the mark, truly turn each day over to Me, and see victory at every turn. Do not fight the change that comes to your day, for you will be fighting Me.
Those who oppose you will end up working for you. Those who are for you, will be anointed to bless you even more. Don't ever try to take back what you gave to Me. I don't look kindly on it, and it will become a curse to you. Once you dedicate something to Me, expect it to grow including yourself. Nothing dies in the kingdom except flesh. Everything you do not dedicate to Me will be lost and counted against you in the judgment, so it becomes a loose, loose situation.
What ever you truly dedicate to Me will be stripped of any carnality and rearranged to fit kingdom purpose and you will win here and there. It becomes a win, win situation. I counsel you to become a 100%er from this day forward. Hold nothing at all back, and then hold on to My coat-tails, as I change, and rearrange your life, money, plans, time, and body to suit My purpose.
Isaiah 55:8-13 (AMP)
For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, says the Lord. [9] For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. [10] For as the rain and snow come down from the heavens, and return not there again, but water the earth and make it bring forth and sprout, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, [11] So shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void without producing any effect, useless, but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. [12] For you shall go out from the spiritual exile caused by sin and evil into the homeland with joy and be led forth by your Leader, the Lord Himself, and His word with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. [13] Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree; and it shall be to the Lord for a name of renown, for an everlasting sign of jubilant exaltation and memorial to His praise, which shall not be cut off.
Luke 9:62 (AMP)
Jesus said to him, No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back to the things behind is fit for the kingdom of God.
James 1:2-8 (KJV)
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; [3] Knowing this , that the trying of your faith worketh patience. [4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. [5] If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. [6] But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. [7] For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. [8] A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
Acts 5:1-11 (AMP)
BUT A certain man named Ananias with his wife Sapphira sold a piece of property, [2] And with his wife''s knowledge and connivance he kept back and wrongfully appropriated some of the proceeds, bringing only a part and putting it at the feet of the apostles. [3] But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart that you should lie to and attempt to deceive the Holy Spirit, and should in violation of your promise withdraw secretly and appropriate to your own use part of the price from the sale of the land? [4] As long as it remained unsold, was it not still your own? And even after it was sold, was not the money at your disposal and under your control? Why then, is it that you have proposed and purposed in your heart to do this thing? How could you have the heart to do such a deed? You have not simply lied to men playing false and showing yourself utterly deceitful but to God. [5] Upon hearing these words, Ananias fell down and died. And great dread and terror took possession of all who heard of it. [6] And the young men arose and wrapped up the body and carried it out and buried it. [7] Now after an interval of about three hours his wife came in, not having learned of what had happened. [8] And Peter said to her, Tell me, did you sell the land for so much? Yes, she said, for so much. [9] Then Peter said to her, How could you two have agreed and conspired together to try to deceive the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also. [10] And instantly she fell down at his feet and died; and the young men entering found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband. [11] And the whole church and all others who heard of these things were appalled great awe and strange terror and dread seized them.
1 Corinthians 2:6-16 (AMP)
Yet when we are among the full-grown (spiritually mature Christians who are ripe in understanding), we do impart a higher wisdom (the knowledge of the divine plan previously hidden); but it is indeed not a wisdom of this present age or of this world nor of the leaders and rulers of this age, who are being brought to nothing and are doomed to pass away. [7] But rather what we are setting forth is a wisdom of God once hidden from the human understanding and now revealed to us by God--that wisdom which God devised and decreed before the ages for our glorification to lift us into the glory of His presence. [8] None of the rulers of this age or world perceived and recognized and understood this, for if they had, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory. [9] But, on the contrary, as the Scripture says, What eye has not seen and ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, all that God has prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him who hold Him in affectionate reverence, promptly obeying Him and gratefully recognizing the benefits He has bestowed. [10] Yet to us God has unveiled and revealed them by and through His Spirit, for the Holy Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man''s scrutiny. [11] For what person perceives (knows and understands) what passes through a man''s thoughts except the man''s own spirit within him? Just so no one discerns (comes to know and comprehend) the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. [12] Now we have not received the spirit that belongs to the world, but the Holy Spirit Who is from God, given to us that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly bestowed on us by God. [13] And we are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Holy Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual truths with spiritual language to those who possess the Holy Spirit. [14] But the natural, nonspiritual man does not accept or welcome or admit into his heart the gifts and teachings and revelations of the Spirit of God, for they are folly (meaningless nonsense) to him; and he is incapable of knowing them of progressively recognizing, understanding, and becoming better acquainted with them because they are spiritually discerned and estimated and appreciated. [15] But the spiritual man tries all things he examines, investigates, inquires into, questions, and discerns all things, yet is himself to be put on trial and judged by no one he can read the meaning of everything, but no one can properly discern or appraise or get an insight into him. [16] For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (the Messiah) and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart.
When you turn anything over to Me be sure you are ready for things to change. Make sure you want My will and not yours. Most, well meaning christians, are carnal and have no idea that I have a real plan that differs from anything they could come up with.

The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also. [10] And instantly she fell down at his feet and died; and the young men entering found her dead, and they carried her out and buried her beside her husband. [11] And the whole church and all others who heard of these things were appalled great awe and strange terror and dread seized them.
1 Corinthians 2:6-16 (AMP)
Yet when we are among the full-grown (spiritually mature Christians who are ripe in understanding), we do impart a higher wisdom (the knowledge of the divine plan previously hidden); but it is indeed not a wisdom of this present age or of this world nor of the leaders and rulers of this age, who are being brought to nothing and are doomed to pass away. [7] But rather what we are setting forth is a wisdom of God once hidden from the human understanding and now revealed to us by God--that wisdom which God devised and decreed before the ages for our glorification to lift us into the glory of His presence. [8] None of the rulers of this age or world perceived and recognized and understood this, for if they had, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory. [9] But, on the contrary, as the Scripture says, What eye has not seen and ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, all that God has prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him who hold Him in affectionate reverence, promptly obeying Him and gratefully recognizing the benefits He has bestowed. [10] Yet to us God has unveiled and revealed them by and through His Spirit, for the Holy Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man''s scrutiny. [11] For what person perceives (knows and understands) what passes through a man''s thoughts except the man''s own spirit within him? Just so no one discerns (comes to know and comprehend) the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. [12] Now we have not received the spirit that belongs to the world, but the Holy Spirit Who is from God, given to us that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly bestowed on us by God. [13] And we are setting these truths forth in words not taught by human wisdom but taught by the Holy Spirit, combining and interpreting spiritual truths with spiritual language to those who possess the Holy Spirit. [14] But the natural, nonspiritual man does not accept or welcome or admit into his heart the gifts and teachings and revelations of the Spirit of God, for they are folly (meaningless nonsense) to him; and he is incapable of knowing them of progressively recognizing, understanding, and becoming better acquainted with them because they are spiritually discerned and estimated and appreciated. [15] But the spiritual man tries all things he examines, investigates, inquires into, questions, and discerns all things, yet is himself to be put on trial and judged by no one he can read the meaning of everything, but no one can properly discern or appraise or get an insight into him. [16] For who has known or understood the mind (the counsels and purposes) of the Lord so as to guide and instruct Him and give Him knowledge? But we have the mind of Christ (the Messiah) and do hold the thoughts (feelings and purposes) of His heart.

THE HIGHEST AND MOST RESPONSIBLE POSITION ON EARTH
THE HIGHEST AND MOST RESPONSIBLE POSITION ON EARTH
There are many high positions on earth, but they have no importance in the kingdom. The highest position you can hold on earth, from a kingdom prospective is Ambassador of the King of Kings. Being My ambassador carries heavy responsibility because it does not depend on your acting ability, but on who you have allowed Me to be, in you. Your heart condition is your full responsibility, because you must keep it constantly tender and in line with Mine, by waiting on Me every day. I will not change your heart, unless you surrender it to Me.
A day without being in My presence will cause you to misrepresent Me. A misrepresentation of Me can result in a lamb going astray. To misrepresent Me, is to stumble a little one. Your life and attitude must always be submitted to My Spirit. Along with the joy and blessing of serving Me, there is a continual crucifixion of the old nature that will try to resurrect in times of stress. Never, walk on by, a hurting person without checking with Me to see how I want you to represent Me in their situation. Stress will blind you to the needs of others.
You are about to see more hurting people, than ever before. The pain in multitudes will be unbearable, as the end draws near. You are to have a clear and clean life, one that will not hinder My anointing. I am sending you out once again, two by two, as I did when I was on the earth. The power of two agreeing, under My anointing, will break the enemies strangulation hold around the necks of old and young alike. I will bless you with money to feed them and clothe them. If you are My ambassador, you have no money of your own, you are carrying My money and I have plenty of it, I will give you all you need and more as long as you keep giving it where I say.
More and more people will have trouble physically breathing as demonic attacks increase. Recognize this for what it is and cancel the demonic effects with the authority I have given you. Do not be shy or hesitant to relieve suffering, it will be on every side of you, but it will not touch you, if you are My ambassador. You are sent to heal the sick, cast out devils, feed, comfort, and care for the poor. Turn their sorrow to joy with the good news. Bind their wounds, set the prisoner free. You are always to be ready in an instants notice, to use your anointing.
With this kind of kingdom power, you must be transparent in your lifestyle at all times. No hidden sin and no hidden agendas. I will cover your personality flaws as I fine tune your character, but you are to present yourself a living sacrifice unto Me every day. This is not a part time calling. You are My ambassador to a dying world, every single day from now on. I am rearranging everything in and around you to accomplish this task. Be ready for big changes as I position you with greater authority, as My ambassador.
Fear nothing, fear no one, for you are under orders and under authority. I will send people to you, because of the position, I have given you. Never again say, "I have nothing to give", for I would not send them, if you could not meet their need. What ever they need, in that same hour, you will have the power to meet it. Always make it very clear who you represent and why they have come to you. Tell them I arranged it and it's because I love them, leave the rest of the words to Me and I will speak through you, and they will know that I am God.
All who are desiring ambassadorship should present themselves now, as a living sacrifice, fit for My use. Repent and renounce all hidden sin, and wait on Me, as I empower you each day to fill the highest position on earth.
2 Corinthians 5:20 (AMP)
So we are Christ''s ambassadors, God making His appeal as it were through us. We as Christ''s personal representatives beg you for His sake to lay hold of the divine favor now offered you and be reconciled to God.

Therefore because He stooped so low God has highly exalted Him and has freely bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, [10] That in (at) the name of Jesus every knee should (must) bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, [11] And every tongue frankly and openly confess and acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Matthew 18:19-20 (AMP)
Again I tell you, if two of you on earth agree (harmonize together, make a symphony together) about whatever anything and everything they may ask, it will come to pass and be done for them by My Father in heaven. [20] For wherever two or three are gathered (drawn together as My followers) in (into) My name, there I AM in the midst of them.
Luke 10:1-3,9,18-20 (KJV)
After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. [2] Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. [3] Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. [9] And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you. [18] And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. [19] Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you. [20] Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
Luke 4:18 (AMP)
The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me the Anointed One, the Messiah to preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor; He has sent Me to announce release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as delivered those who are oppressed who are downtrodden, bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity,
John 20:21-23 (KJV)
Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

I SPOIL SOME OF MY CHILDREN
I SPOIL SOME OF MY CHILDREN
In the natural, children can be spoiled by a parent giving them everything they want and it is considered poor parenting. But in the Spiritual it quite a different thing. When you are first born again, I am very generous and honor simple faith quickly. I give even silly things to My children because I cannot resist their simple faith and zeal for Me.
This does not last because they soon become swallowed up by the religious crowd and told to mature and are fed the faith killing doctrines of men. To counteract this hypocrisy, I put them in situations where the religious have no answers and only faith in Me will get them out. This way I am able to wean them away from carnal thinking and back into a child and daddy relationship.
As time with Me progresses some of you move to the kingdom mentality where you choose to completely die to self and enter an area where spiritual spoiling task place. The spoiling is not risky or detrimental in any way but is the way of the kingdom. It is so detailed that I hear your thoughts and rush to grant them. Sometimes they are the simplest, like, you thinking, 'boy, I would like an ice cream', and in a little while someone hands you an ice cream cone. Or when, you think, "that's to heavy for me to lift", and someone shows up and says, "need help lifting that".
I arrange all your schedules, to be at the right place at the right time, pick up your messes, repair your breeches, re-shape your words, and make your path straight.
When you risk all and are willing to give Me everything, you have the full attention of My kingdom. I spoil you in a good way. What ever you ask Me in My son's name, it's yours. I hold back no good thing. You have decided to give all to Me and I give all to you. The reason this does not appear to work in most cases is, the heart is part of the deal. If you hold back one percent of your heart the deal is canceled. One hundred percent of your heart is required to love Me, into a spoiling lifestyle. Any personal agendas at all, will prevent this highest of relationships between you and Me.
If you are worried or complaining about your situation then you still have a personal agenda in tact. If you are really 100 percent mine, then your good bad and ugly has been given to Me. Some of you give Me your good and keep your ugly bills, because ugly unbelief, has bound you to the fear of lack. Many who possess the least, are the most unbelieving. "How will I, how can I, how am I", are the only ugly words they offer Me. Did you ever think to praise Me for nothing. If your next mission, was to win the homeless, like I was, could you become one, for My sake, and still praise Me? If not, you still have a personal agenda, and I would never dare spoil you.
My goal is to win your whole heart, mind, soul and body. I know your every thought, so I really risk nothing. Your closest friend may not see the tiny percentage you hold back, but it is a gigantic bolder in your path to the kingdom and obvious to all of heaven. Anything outside a whole heart experience, means a personal agenda is still in tact. If I were to ignore the personal agenda and allow you to enter the kingdom relationship of spoiling, the personal agenda would instantly expand to gigantic proportion and destroy you.
You must choose to love Me, after I draw you, and then expand that love, by being alone with Me and forsaking everything and everyone else. When this love consumes you, death to self and personal agendas occur, and I will spoil you beyond you wildest imagination. Do not concentrate on being spoiled, but on being alone with Me and falling in love with Me. Trust me, I know when I have completed the work in you, and you are ready to be spoiled.
Ephesians 3:19-20 (AMP)
That you may really come to know practically, through experience for yourselves the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge without experience; that you may be filled through all your being unto all the fullness of God may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself! [20] Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the action of His power that is at work within us, is able to carry out His purpose and do superabundantly, far over and above all that we dare ask or think infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams--
1 Corinthians 2:9-12 (AMP)
But, on the contrary, as the Scripture says, What eye has not seen and ear has not heard and has not entered into the heart of man, all that God has prepared (made and keeps ready) for those who love Him who hold Him in affectionate reverence, promptly obeying Him and gratefully recognizing the benefits He has bestowed. [10] Yet to us God has unveiled and revealed them by and through His Spirit, for the Holy Spirit searches diligently, exploring and examining everything, even sounding the profound and bottomless things of God the divine counsels and things hidden and beyond man''s scrutiny. [11] For what person perceives (knows and understands) what passes through a man''s thoughts except the man''s own spirit within him? Just so no one discerns (comes to know and comprehend) the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. [12] Now we have not received the spirit that belongs to the world, but the Holy Spirit Who is from God, given to us that we might realize and comprehend and appreciate the gifts of divine favor and blessing so freely and lavishly bestowed on us by God.
Deuteronomy 4:29-31 (AMP)
But if from there you will seek (inquire for and require as necessity) the Lord your God, you will find Him if you truly seek Him with all your heart and mind and soul and life. [30] When you are in tribulation and all these things come upon you, in the latter days you will turn to the Lord your God and be obedient to His voice. [31] For the Lord your God is a merciful God; He will not fail you or destroy you or forget the covenant of your fathers, which He swore to them.
Deuteronomy 6:5 (AMP)
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your mind and heart and with your entire being and with all your might.
Deuteronomy 10:12 (AMP)

Matthew 22:37-38 (AMP)
And He replied to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind (intellect). [38] This is the great (most important, principal) and first commandment.
James 1:5-8 (AMP)
If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God Who gives to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him. [6] Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind. [7] For truly, let not such a person imagine that he will receive anything he asks for from the Lord, [8] For being as he is a man of two minds (hesitating, dubious, irresolute), he is unstable and unreliable and uncertain about everything he thinks, feels, decides.
Hebrews 11:6 (AMP)
But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must necessarily believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him out.
In the natural, children can be spoiled by a parent giving them everything they want and it is considered poor parenting. But in the Spiritual it quite a different thing.

NO DEADLY BLIND SPOTS IN THE KINGDOM
NO DEADLY BLIND SPOTS IN THE KINGDOM
On a highway there are two references to blind spots, when you can't see around a curve or over a knoll and hidden space between the end of your rear view mirror and the beginning of your natural vision. These blind spots can prove very deadly and have resulted in the death of thousands. To protect the traveler, many types of warnings have been developed. Road signs, blinkers, flashing lights of all colors, stop lights have all been developed to protect from blind spots.
Let me show you a more deadly blind spot, a spiritual blind spot. A spiritual blind spot is developed when your souls emotions and your spirit are not separated far enough apart. When I speak to you, I speak to your spirit, but your emotions can take over along the way, and steer you down the wrong road. It ends up causing you to do the right thing wrong. What I told you in the spirit to say, you may have said, but how you said it, may have been controlled by your souls emotion. Receiving something in Spirit power delivering it in soul power, is disaster every time.
The problem stems from beginning in the Spirit and trying to finish in the flesh. Most of the time it's totally unnoticed until it's to late. One or more of the emotions of excitement, enthusiasm, sorrow, fear, anger, impatience, or strong discontent are the culprit that directs you down the flesh trail.
You must always hold My hand even if you think there is no traffic coming. It's when you think you can handle the rest is where you always go wrong. It's when you have enough on hand to finish. It's when you can see the destination and the temptation to run ahead is too great to resist. It's when you have done it so many times before and you think you got it down. It's when the time is up and you think I won't come through, and panic sets in.
You still love Me and are in My purpose and this is why it becomes a blind spot. To protect you from blind spots I send people of like mind and purpose along side to watch your walk from a different angle and speak into each situation at the crucial point. But you must recognize it is Me or you will ignore them and crash. There are times in emergency situations I will speak through perfect strangers, children, angels, enemies, and even an animal, I will do all possible to keep you pure, but I will not usurp your will.
Always hold My hand and listen to the one I send and you will finish in the Spirit, and hear, "well done".
Galatians 3:2-7 (AMP)
Let me ask you this one question: Did you receive the Holy Spirit as the result of obeying the Law and doing its works, or was it by hearing the message of the Gospel and believing it? Was it from observing a law of rituals or from a message of faith? [3] Are you so foolish and so senseless and so silly? Having begun your new life spiritually with the Holy Spirit, are you now reaching perfection by dependence on the flesh? [4] Have you suffered so many things and experienced so much all for nothing (to no purpose)--if it really is to no purpose and in vain? [5] Then does He Who supplies you with His marvelous Holy Spirit and works powerfully and miraculously among you do so on the grounds of your doing what the Law demands, or because of your believing in and adhering to and trusting in and relying on the message that you heard? [6] Thus Abraham believed in and adhered to and trusted in and relied on God, and it was reckoned and placed to his account and credited as righteousness (as conformity to the divine will in purpose, thought, and action). [7] Know and understand that it is really the people who live by faith who are the true sons of Abraham.
Galatians 5:6-10 (AMP)
For if we are in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love. [7] You were running the race nobly. Who has interfered in (hindered and stopped you from) your heeding and following the Truth? [8] This evil persuasion is not from Him Who called you Who invited you to freedom in Christ. [9] A little leaven (a slight inclination to error, or a few false teachers) leavens the whole lump it perverts the whole conception of faith or misleads the whole church. [10] For my part I have confidence toward you in the Lord that you will take no contrary view of the matter but will come to think with me. But he who is unsettling you, whoever he is, will have to bear the penalty.
1 Peter 5:8-9 (AMP)
Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring in fierce hunger, seeking someone to seize upon and devour. [9] Withstand him; be firm in faith against his onset--rooted, established, strong, immovable, and determined, knowing that the same (identical) sufferings are appointed to your brotherhood (the whole body of Christians) throughout the world.
1 Corinthians 16:14 (AMP)
Let everything you do be done in love (true love to God and man as inspired by God''s love for us).16:15-18 (KJV)
I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) [16] That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us , and laboureth. [17] I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied. [18] For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
Ephesians 5:17,19-21 (AMP)
Therefore do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is. [19] Speak out to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, offering praise with voices and instruments and making melody with all your heart to the Lord, [20] At all times and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father. [21] Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One).
Ephesians 4:14-16 (KJV)
That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; [15] But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: [16] From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.
Numbers 22:20-36 (AMP)
And God came to Balaam at night, and said to him, If the men come to call you, rise up and go with them, but still only what I tell you may you do. [21] And Balaam rose up in the morning and saddled his donkey and went with the princes of Moab. [22] And God''s anger was kindled because he went, and the Angel of the Lord stood in the way as an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his donkey, and his two servants were with him. [23] And the donkey saw the Angel of the Lord standing in the way and His sword drawn in His hand, and the donkey turned aside out of the way and went into the field. And Balaam struck the donkey to turn her into the way. [24] But the Angel of the Lord stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall on this side and a wall on that side. [25] And when the donkey saw the Angel of the Lord, she thrust herself against the wall and crushed Balaam''s foot against it, and he struck her again. [26] And the Angel of the Lord went further and stood in a narrow place where there was no room to turn, either to the right hand or to the left. [27] And when the donkey saw the Angel of the Lord, she fell down under Balaam, and Balaam''s anger was kindled and he struck the donkey with his staff. [28] And the Lord opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, What have I done to you that you should strike me these three times? [29] And Balaam said to the donkey, Because you have ridiculed and provoked me! I wish there were a sword in my hand, for now I would kill you! [30] And the donkey said to Balaam, Am not I your donkey, upon which you have ridden all your life long until this day? Was I ever accustomed to do so to you? And he said, No. [31] Then the Lord opened Balaam''s eyes, and he saw the Angel of the Lord standing in the way with His sword drawn in His hand; and he bowed his head and fell on his face. [32] And the Angel of the Lord said to him, Why have you struck your donkey these three times? See, I came out to stand against and resist you, for your behavior is willfully obstinate and contrary before Me. [33] And the ass saw Me and turned from Me these three times. If she had not turned from Me, surely I would have slain you and saved her alive. [34] Balaam said to the Angel of the Lord, I have sinned, for I did not know You stood in the way against me. But now, if my going displeases You, I will return. [35] The Angel of the Lord said to Balaam, Go with the men, but you shall speak only what I tell you. So Balaam went with the princes of Balak. [36] When Balak heard that Balaam had come, he went out to meet him at the city of Moab on the border formed by the Arnon River, at the farthest end of the boundary.
On a highway there are two references to blind spots, when you can't see around a curve or over a knoll and hidden space between the end of your rear view mirror and the beginning of your natural vision. These blind spots can prove very deadly and have resulted in the death of thousands. To protect the traveler, many types of warnings have been developed. Road signs, blinkers, flashing lights of all colors, stop lights have all been developed to protect from blind spots.
Let me show you a more deadly blind spot, a spiritual blind spot. A spiritual blind spot is developed when your souls emotions and your spirit are not separated far enough apart. When I speak to you, I speak to your spirit, but your emotions can take over along the way, and steer you down the wrong road. It ends up causing you to do the right thing wrong. What I told you in the spirit to say, you may have said, but how you said it, may have been controlled by your souls emotion. Receiving something in Spirit power delivering it in soul power, is disaster every time.
The problem stems from beginning in the Spirit and trying to finish in the flesh. Most of the time it's totally unnoticed until it's to late. One or more of the emotions of excitement, enthusiasm, sorrow, fear, anger, impatience, or strong discontent are the culprit that directs you down the flesh trail.
You must always hold My hand even if you think there is no traffic coming. It's when you think you can handle the rest is where you always go wrong. It's when you have enough on hand to finish. It's when you can see the destination and the temptation to run ahead is too great to resist. It's when you have done it so many times before and you think you got it down. It's when the time is up and you think I won't come through, and panic sets in.
You still love Me and are in My purpose and this is why it becomes a blind spot. To protect you from blind spots I send people of like mind and purpose along side to watch your walk from a different angle and speak into each situation at the crucial point. But you must recognize it is Me or you will ignore them and crash. There are times in emergency situations I will speak through perfect strangers, children, angels, enemies, and even an animal, I will do all possible to keep you pure, but I will not usurp your will.
Always hold My hand and listen to the one I send and you will finish in the Spirit, and hear, "well done".

MEDITATION IS CRUCIAL
MEDITATION IS CRUCIAL
Here's how you were reconstructed after the great fall of Adam. Thoughts are electrical impulses that enter the brain every millisecond. These are necessary for the normal human to function in society. At the same time millions of internal impulses are constant repeating themselves with no thoughts involved. These are called motor functions. This part of your brain keeps your body alive and moving.
The impulses from the outside. for the vast majority, come through the eye gate and the ear gate. Thoughts come in two categories, positive and negative. Positive or good coming from the kingdom of light to move you forward, negative or bad coming from the kingdom of darkness, to push you backward.
You can greatly lessen the negative garbage, by staying away from the dumps of darkness. Some people only feed on the dumps and their whole brain is dark and their body responds to all the darkness with reprobate actions. Upon entering the eye or ear gate, all things seen and heard enter the brain and form individual thoughts, when several million have formed they create patterns through meditation, these patterns now begin to effect the emotions which are displayed throughout the body.
Negative shows up in the eyes, and on the face first, then the shoulders and legs. Negative causes your tongue to speak darkness into your future as will as your present. It begins to send it into the ear gate of others, sending them backwards. Meditation on the negative is crucial to the destruction of your life and all you speak too. The temptation is very great to meditate and form negative patterns of destruction.
Now lets go to the light side. The same process takes place except everything is reversed, the eyes are bright, the face is aglow, your shoulders are back and a spring has replaced a shuffle in your step. Your tongue speaks good things and your future is brightened by the light you are speaking into it. You speak life into the ears of others and move them forward. Meditation is crucial to form patterns that spread light to counteract the darkness being spoken by millions.
But remember one little candle dispels a whole room of darkness.
Now for you the believer, you have a living spirit, allowing Me to bypass and supersede electrical impulses of thoughts that enter the brain through the normal gates. My Holy Spirit comes inside your Spirit, which is made alive by the born again process, and speaks words of truth from inside you to your brain. It is not called conscience after being reborn, it's My Spirit speaking. It's no longer, "something told me", it's the Holy Spirit told me.
Meditation is crucial for the grabbing of all the thoughts going directly to the brain and filtering them through the Spirit so I can sort them according to My plan. If they do not fit My plan and purpose for your life I discard them. This is where I speak kingdom life and truth into you, and all the words that I speak are life to every part of your being. Without meditation you will be constantly repenting and starting over because of carnal thinking. Wait on Me and everything about you will change. From your eyes to your step. Stay close to those who speak life to you and separate from those who speak darkness.
Meditating on Me and My words will lead you to the kingdom, as I speak life into your spirit moment by moment. Meditating gives Me time to transfer the words I speak in your Spirit to your brain. Thus causing the rivers of life to flow from from your belly, to a dying world.
2 Corinthians 10:4-5 (AMP)
For the weapons of our warfare are not physical weapons of flesh and blood, but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds, [5] Inasmuch as we refute arguments and theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the true knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One),
Genesis 6:5-8 (KJV)
And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. [6] And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. [7] And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. [8] But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord .
Psalm 19:14 (AMP)
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my firm, impenetrable Rock and my Redeemer.
Psalm 27:14 (AMP)
Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord.

I WILL COMPLETELY DESTROY YOUR VALUE SYSTEM AND THEN RESTORE ALL THINGS
I WILL COMPLETELY DESTROY YOUR VALUE SYSTEM AND THEN RESTORE ALL THINGS
Let me tell you the benefit of giving up everything to follow Me. You get it all back up to a hundred times, in the temporary and the permanent, in the natural world and the spiritual world. When you choose to die to self and choose to follow Me, it will cost you everything. There are family members that will not choose to walk the death to self trail, because it requires an intense love for Me, that most do not have. Many have tried to do it out of duty, and they became trapped in religion. Others have tried to do it to escape hell, but they became entangled in a system of works.
The only way you will be able to leave all and follow Me is by falling madly in love with My presence. The desire for My presence has such drawing power that removes all value from every person, place and thing in your life, other than Me. Your value system is completely ruined. It is destroyed so badly that only those who have walked the same, death to self path, will understand. Everyone else will write you off as too radical.
This radical walk will separate the closest of friends. It will bring division in families and even between husband and wife. It is never My desired to break up anything, however you must understand than before the worlds were framed and you were ever thought of, the kingdom was in My plan. I call out to whosoever will, come be part of My kingdom, every race, color and creed. Too the Rich, poor, blind, lame, young, old, male, and female, educated and uneducated, to the prisoner and free man, I call day and night, come unto Me.
I have a business, I have married a wife, let Me say My goodbyes, they exclaim. The price is too great, I will loose My friends, My wife will leave me, my kids will think I am crazy, "I'm sorry, I will not pay the price", is their final answer. But if you put your hand to the plow and look back, your heart will re-establish the old value system. My presence will loose it's drawing power to you, and your passport to the kingdom will be revoked.
But for the few of you who stay in love with My presence, and move on to the thing that I have called you too, I will restore all that you lost during the crossing over. What did you loose in the transition, a house? I will give you another one. Did you loose land? I have land for you. Did you loose a spouse? I have hand picked a help mate for you. Did your children disown you? I have multitudes of children starving for My love, that you now carry. Now the best part, when you make your final transition, and enter the kingdom, you will receive it all again and keep it all forever.
Who do you think is calling you, a cheapskate employer, a hard taskmaster, a scrooge? I am the king of kings, master of the universes and you are so valuable to Me that I physically died for you. I took the keys of death and hell that you gave satan, and I rose again. I now I remain seated, next to My Father, until you are ready for My return. I did it all for you. But only those who fall madly in love with My presence will pay the kingdom price and have all things restored a hundred fold.
Matthew 19:28-30 (KJV)
And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. [29] And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. [30] But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
Luke 14:16-27 (AMP)
But Jesus said to him, A man was once giving a great supper and invited many; [17] And at the hour for the supper he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, Come, for all is now ready. [18] But they all alike began to make excuses and to beg off. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of land, and I have to go out and see it; I beg you, have me excused. [19] And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to examine and put my approval on them; I beg you, have me excused. [20] And another said, I have married a wife, and because of this I am unable to come. [21] So the servant came and reported these answers to his master. Then the master of the house said in wrath to his servant, Go quickly into the great streets and the small streets of the city and bring in here the poor and the disabled and the blind and the lame. [22] And the servant returning said, Sir, what you have commanded me to do has been done, and yet there is room. [23] Then the master said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges and urge and constrain them to yield and come in, so that my house may be filled. [24] For I tell you, not one of those who were invited shall taste my supper. [25] Now huge crowds were going along with Jesus, and He turned and said to them, [26] If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his own father and mother in the sense of indifference to or relative disregard for them in comparison with his attitude toward God and likewise his wife and children and brothers and sisters--yes and even his own life also--he cannot be My disciple. [27] Whoever does not persevere and carry his own cross and come after (follow) Me cannot be My disciple.
Luke 9:58-62 (AMP)
And Jesus told him, Foxes have lurking holes and the birds of the air have roosts and nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head. [59] And He said to another, Become My disciple, side with My party, and accompany Me! But he replied, Lord, permit me first to go and bury (await the death of) my father. [60] But Jesus said to him, Allow the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and publish abroad throughout all regions the kingdom of God. [61] Another also said, I will follow You, Lord, and become Your disciple and side with Your party; but let me first say good-bye to those at my home. [62] Jesus said to him, No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back to the things behind is fit for the kingdom of God.
Matthew 7:13-14,21-29 (AMP)
Enter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and spacious and broad is the way that leads away to destruction, and many are those who are entering through it. [14] But the gate is narrow (contracted by pressure) and the way is straitened and compressed that leads away to life, and few are those who find it. [21] Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father Who is in heaven. [22] Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name and driven out demons in Your name and done many mighty works in Your name? [23] And then I will say to them openly (publicly), I never knew you; depart from Me, you who act wickedly disregarding My commands. [24] So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them obeying them will be like a sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock. [25] And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. [26] And everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not do them will be like a stupid (foolish) man who built his house upon the sand. [27] And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell--and great and complete was the fall of it. [28] When Jesus had finished these sayings the Sermon on the Mount, the crowds were astonished and overwhelmed with bewildered wonder at His teaching, [29] For He was teaching as One Who had and was authority, and not as did the scribes.
Let me tell you the benefit of giving up everything to follow Me. You get it all back up to a hundred times, in the temporary and the permanent, in the natural world and the spiritual world. When you choose to die to self and choose to follow Me, it will cost you everything. There are family members that will not choose to walk the death to self trail, because it requires an intense love for Me, that most do not have. Many have tried to do it out of duty, and they became trapped in religion. Others have tried to do it to escape hell, but they became entangled in a system of works.
The only way you will be able to leave all and follow Me is by falling madly in love with My presence. The desire for My presence has such drawing power that removes all value from every person, place and thing in your life, other than Me. Your value system is completely ruined. It is destroyed so badly that only those who have walked the same, death to self path, will understand. Everyone else will write you off as too radical.
This radical walk will separate the closest of friends. It will bring division in families and even between husband and wife. It is never My desired to break up anything, however you must understand than before the worlds were framed and you were ever thought of, the kingdom was in My plan. I call out to whosoever will, come be part of My kingdom, every race, color and creed. Too the Rich, poor, blind, lame, young, old, male, and female, educated and uneducated, to the prisoner and free man, I call day and night, come unto Me.
I have a business, I have married a wife, let Me say My goodbyes, they exclaim. The price is too great, I will loose My friends, My wife will leave me, my kids will think I am crazy, "I'm sorry, I will not pay the price", is their final answer. But if you put your hand to the plow and look back, your heart will re-establish the old value system. My presence will loose it's drawing power to you, and your passport to the kingdom will be revoked.
But for the few of you who stay in love with My presence, and move on to the thing that I have called you too, I will restore all that you lost during the crossing over. What did you loose in the transition, a house? I will give you another one. Did you loose land? I have land for you. Did you loose a spouse? I have hand picked a help mate for you. Did your children disown you? I have multitudes of children starving for My love, that you now carry. Now the best part, when you make your final transition, and enter the kingdom, you will receive it all again and keep it all forever.
Who do you think is calling you, a cheapskate employer, a hard taskmaster, a scrooge? I am the king of kings, master of the universes and you are so valuable to Me that I physically died for you. I took the keys of death and hell that you gave satan, and I rose again. I now I remain seated, next to My Father, until you are ready for My return. I did it all for you. But only those who fall madly in love with My presence will pay the kingdom price and have all things restored a hundred fold.
Matthew 19:28-30 (KJV)
And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. [29] And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. [30] But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
Luke 14:16-27 (AMP)
But Jesus said to him, A man was once giving a great supper and invited many; [17] And at the hour for the supper he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, Come, for all is now ready. [18] But they all alike began to make excuses and to beg off. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of land, and I have to go out and see it; I beg you, have me excused. [19] And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to examine and put my approval on them; I beg you, have me excused. [20] And another said, I have married a wife, and because of this I am unable to come. [21] So the servant came and reported these answers to his master. Then the master of the house said in wrath to his servant, Go quickly into the great streets and the small streets of the city and bring in here the poor and the disabled and the blind and the lame. [22] And the servant returning said, Sir, what you have commanded me to do has been done, and yet there is room. [23] Then the master said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges and urge and constrain them to yield and come in, so that my house may be filled. [24] For I tell you, not one of those who were invited shall taste my supper. [25] Now huge crowds were going along with Jesus, and He turned and said to them, [26] If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his own father and mother in the sense of indifference to or relative disregard for them in comparison with his attitude toward God and likewise his wife and children and brothers and sisters--yes and even his own life also--he cannot be My disciple. [27] Whoever does not persevere and carry his own cross and come after (follow) Me cannot be My disciple.
Luke 9:58-62 (AMP)
And Jesus told him, Foxes have lurking holes and the birds of the air have roosts and nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head. [59] And He said to another, Become My disciple, side with My party, and accompany Me! But he replied, Lord, permit me first to go and bury (await the death of) my father. [60] But Jesus said to him, Allow the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and publish abroad throughout all regions the kingdom of God. [61] Another also said, I will follow You, Lord, and become Your disciple and side with Your party; but let me first say good-bye to those at my home. [62] Jesus said to him, No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back to the things behind is fit for the kingdom of God.
Matthew 7:13-14,21-29 (AMP)
Enter through the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and spacious and broad is the way that leads away to destruction, and many are those who are entering through it. [14] But the gate is narrow (contracted by pressure) and the way is straitened and compressed that leads away to life, and few are those who find it. [21] Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father Who is in heaven. [22] Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name and driven out demons in Your name and done many mighty works in Your name? [23] And then I will say to them openly (publicly), I never knew you; depart from Me, you who act wickedly disregarding My commands.

THE CONCEALED WEAPON OF DISTRACTION
THE CONCEALED WEAPON OF DISTRACTION
Question? What have I called you to do? Are all the things you are doing now, helping or hindering reaching prize of that high calling? Keep this in mind, it may look good, sound good, feel good, make perfect sense, be logical, and be approved by those around you and still be a weapon of the enemy to get you off course.
Loving people is not a calling, but the simple flowing of My Spirit out of a full belly of living water. Healing is not a calling, it's a gift. As a result of My power working in you, you will be doing good, where ever you go and this is out of your relationship with Me.
Your calling has to do with, person, place or thing. When I place a calling on you, it means I have chosen a specific field for you to work in either temporary or permanent. Around these callings I build ministries, by calling others to support with their spiritual gifts.
Those who lack knowledge of My ways will see My power in you and try to refocus your calling to very worthy causes, dire needs and things that pull at your heart strings. But is it what I called you to do? The enemy has a concealed weapon, also a person, place or thing, that is very close to your specific calling, but it's not. It's just a tiny bit off center. Remember an inch off at the bottom can be a mile off at the top.
Your ability to stay focused is priority and staying on track is totally depend on your intimacy with Me. You must be able to hear My still small voice, in order not to be detracted. The prayer closet is where you will hear My yes and no that keeps you on tract. I will send people to help keep you on course and the enemy will send people to take you off course. My still small voice will show you which is which. Men, women and children of all ages and sizes will tug at your heart strings, but you must stay on course.
During My whole ministry on earth constant attempts were made to distract Me from the cross. Peter loved Me and was very close to Me and I had to rebuke Satan out of him, for trying take Me off course. Everything possible was coming against me to distract Me, but I spent time with My Father each day and only focused on what He was doing. My focus was never altered because I heard and saw what He was doing at all times.
There will be times of great change, but always the calling will remain in tact. You will be told to break camp without breaking rank. You will be shifted from time to time, but with Me directing the change of when and where and how. My peace will always be your compass and source of comfort when the road gets lonely.
Be extremely cautious during times of exhaustion, trust those I have put around you to carry the vision and share the load. They have a helpers anointing. Make room for everyone to fulfill their calling. I am building an army an need all ranks and expertise on deck and in their stations, for the victory you are about to see. Do not be hit with the weapon of distraction.
Exodus 17:10-13 (AMP)
So Joshua did as Moses said and fought with Amalek; and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the hilltop. [11] When Moses held up his hand, Israel prevailed; and when he lowered his hand, Amalek prevailed. [12] But Moses'' hands were heavy and grew weary. So the other men took a stone and put it under him and he sat on it. Then Aaron and Hur held up his hands, one on one side and one on the other side; so his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. [13] And Joshua mowed down and disabled Amalek and his people with the sword.
Matthew 16:21-26 (AMP)
From that time forth Jesus began clearly to show His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders and the high priests and scribes, and be killed, and on the third day be raised from death. [22] Then Peter took Him aside to speak to Him privately and began to reprove and charge Him sharply, saying, God forbid, Lord! This must never happen to You! [23] But Jesus turned away from Peter and said to him, Get behind Me, Satan! You are in My way an offense and a hindrance and a snare to Me; for you are minding what partakes not of the nature and quality of God, but of men. [24] Then Jesus said to His disciples, If anyone desires to be My disciple, let him deny himself disregard, lose sight of, and forget himself and his own interests and take up his cross and follow Me cleave steadfastly to Me, conform wholly to My example in living and, if need be, in dying, also. [25] For whoever is bent on saving his temporal life his comfort and security here shall lose it eternal life; and whoever loses his life his comfort and security here for My sake shall find it life everlasting. [26] For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life his blessed life in the kingdom of God? Or what would a man give as an exchange for his blessed life in the kingdom of God?
Luke 22:41-43 (AMP)
And He withdrew from them about a stone''s throw and knelt down and prayed, [42] Saying, Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me; yet not My will, but always Yours be done. [43] And there appeared to Him an angel from heaven, strengthening Him in spirit.

EVERYTHING IS DELIBERATE IN YOUR LIFE
EVERYTHING IS DELIBERATE IN YOUR LIFE
The enemy is deliberately trying to kill you and I am deliberately trying to bless you. Without My protection you would be dead by now. It is very simple for the forces of darkness to take you out, if I gave him permission. It is My love that deliberately put up a hedge of protection around you. Not one thing has happened to you as a matter of chance or accident. Satan wants to destroy every believer in the worst possible way. But he is limited by My power.
When I lead you to the back side of the desert, it's deliberate. When I cause the wells to go dry and the blessings to be held back, it's deliberate. When I pull you from the back side of the desert, it's deliberate. When I call you to a ministry, it's deliberate. When I anoint you and set you apart, it's deliberate. I take your heart, when you present it to Me, and I deliberately change it to fulfill my plan and purpose.
I deliberately start working everything to your good the moment you commit you whole heart to Me. I am extremely detailed, I add more oxygen when you can't breath, more hydrogen when you need more power and mix them when you need a cup of cold water. I am the air you breath, the light you see by, the rock you stand on, I am your shade in the desert place, and your covering in the cold, I pick you up when you are down, and I carry you when you are weary.
I have deliberately chosen to be your defense, your shield, your hope, and your strength. I deliberately chose to redeem you, by deliberately choosing to die for you. When you pinch your finger I feel it, every unkind word spoken to you is heard and turned to make you stronger. Every lonely moment is designed to draw you closed to Me.
Do now understand that you are a deliberate creation of Mine, you are no accident. There are no accidents with you, ever, all bad is a deliberate attempt by the king of darkness, to destroy you, and all good is My deliberate action to reverse the enemies destructive power. I deliberately overwhelm you with My love, fill you with My Spirit and anoint you to go and tear the kingdom of darkness down and set the captive free. Out of all these deliberate act I deliberately receive glory and it will fill all the whole earth.
Now, I ask you is there any more reason to hesitate giving Me your whole heart. Every moment you wait you are deliberately choosing to stay in an area where the enemy can deliberately destroy you. Make a deliberate choice.
Deuteronomy 30:14-20 (AMP)
But the word is very near you, in your mouth and in your mind and in your heart, so that you can do it. [15] See, I have set before you this day life and good, and death and evil. [16] If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you today, to love the Lord your God, to walk in His ways, and to keep His commandments and His statutes and His ordinances, then you shall live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land into which you go to possess. [17] But if your mind and heart turn away and you will not hear, but are drawn away to worship other gods and serve them, [18] I declare to you today that you shall surely perish, and you shall not live long in the land which you pass over the Jordan to enter and possess. [19] I call heaven and earth to witness this day against you that I have set before you life and death, the blessings and the curses; therefore choose life, that you and your descendants may live [20] And may love the Lord your God, obey His voice, and cling to Him. For He is your life and the length of your days, that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to give to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob
Luke 22:31-32 (AMP)
Simon, Simon (Peter), listen! Satan has asked excessively that all of you be given up to him out of the power and keeping of God, that he might sift all of you like grain, [32] But I have prayed especially for you Peter, that your own faith may not fail; and when you yourself have turned again, strengthen and establish your brethren.
Psalm 103:8-17 (AMP)
The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy and loving-kindness. [9] He will not always chide or be contending, neither will He keep His anger forever or hold a grudge. [10] He has not dealt with us after our sins nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. [11] For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great are His mercy and loving-kindness toward those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him. [12] As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us. [13] As a father loves and pities his children, so the Lord loves and pities those who fear Him with reverence, worship, and awe. [14] For He knows our frame, He earnestly remembers and imprints on His heart that we are dust. [15] As for man, his days are as grass; as a flower of the field, so he flourishes. [16] For the wind passes over it and it is gone, and its place shall know it no more. [17] But the mercy and loving-kindness of the Lord are from everlasting to everlasting upon those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him, and His righteousness is to children''s children--
