YOU NEED TO THINK SMALL, MUCH SMALLER!!
How much land do you own? You really own more than you think. You need to think out of the box by answering these question: Are you My people? Are you called by My name? Have you humbled yourself?Have you turned from your wicked ways? Are you seeking My face? If you answered, yes to all 5, then I have been healing your land. Not the wicked nation you live in, but your land. The land I promised, that where ever your feet tread, was to be yours.
The enemy has laid claim to your physical world, since he is the self proclaimed prince and power of it's atmosphere. Since I gave earth to Adam, to take dominion of, and Adam turned it over to lucifer, by default he can legally claim ownership. However if it's inhabitants (meaning you) invite Me to take over their earthly being, I have legal authority to lay claim to every place your feet tread.
If you answered yes to all five, then I promised you, I would come and heal your land, the land you claim back for Me by your very footsteps. The nation itself will remain in darkness until such time as they meet the criteria. Human beings cannot outlast spiritual wickedness so, outside of meeting My criteria, they and their land have no hope, except to crumble. However the places you walk will become property of the kingdom if you will walk in My statutes and share My agape love.
Now if you will begin to think much smaller and look where you are walking, you will begin to understand why you have been spared the calamity others are suffering. You have all your needs met, because I have healed your specific land. You walk through fire, yet you are not burned, you pass through the waters and you do not drown, your mountains are steep still you foot does not slip. When you moan and complain in the valleys, I do not cut you off. I have never failed to bring you out.
I promised you food and shelter, never the American lifestyle, most of which are luxuries that have come between us. Remember, you are no longer your own, if you are a citizen of the kingdom, you are not of this world and therefore all your acquisitions are for the king. As I possess your being, each step you take has great meaning in the kingdom. Every step of the kingdom person is an offensive move, taking back territory lost by Adam.
You are to begin walking with the understanding that with each step you take, you are physically taking back ground from the enemy . When you acknowledge Me, I will direct your steps. As you delight in me I will direct your path.
The next time you enter a Walmart store, or any place of business, make your trip worth while, do damage to the enemy by claiming back territory by your every step.
Every time you shake hands with someone, claim them in the Spirit. As you shake hands or hug someone, speak blessing into their lives. To those doing harm, covertly break the enemies hold on their lives. My kingdom is always on the offense, never on the defense.
Unless I give specific direction, never do these things openly or out loud, you will be casting your pearls before swine and they will turn and rend you. This is a covert operation until the time I reveal My kingdom. You will be amazed at the favor you will begin to see as My Spirit moves in on the territory you have claimed for Me.
When ever you walk down the street, enter a store or a neighbor's house, recognize that you are reclaiming that territory for the kingdom. Stand in My covenant promise and you will begin to see the atmosphere change, as My promise overrules and nullifies satan's claim.
Everywhere you look, you will start to see signs going up in these newly claimed territories. In the spirit I will place signs such as, NO LIEING BEYOND THIS POINT, FORNICATION FREE HOME, NO ABUSE OF EMPLOYEES IN THIS BUSINESS, FIND FORGIVENESS HERE, DRUG FREE ZONE, SMOKE FREE PERSON, ADULTERY ENDED, DIVORCE CANCELLED, HUNGRY FED, SICK HEALED, DEBT PAID, ADDICTION FREE.
Genesis 3:5-8 (KJV)
For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil. [6] And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. [7] And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons. [8] And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden.

Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:

Then the Lord will drive out all these nations before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than you. [24] Every place upon which the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness to Lebanon, and from the River, the river Euphrates, to the western sea the Mediterranean your territory shall be. [25] There shall no man be able to stand before you; the Lord your God shall lay the fear and the dread of you upon all the land that you shall tread, as He has said to you
Luke 10:19 (AMP)
Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and physical and mental strength and ability over all the power that the enemy possesses; and nothing shall in any way harm you.

[24] But I have said to you, You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, Who has separated you from the peoples
Isaiah 43:1-2 (KJV)
But now thus saith the Lord that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. [2] When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
Philippians 4:19 (KJV)
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Mark 16:17-18 (AMP)
And these attesting signs will accompany those who believe: in My name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new languages; [18] They will pick up serpents; and even if they drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will get well.
Luke 13:18-21 (AMP)
This led Him to say, What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it? [19] It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his own garden; and it grew and became a tree, and the wild birds found shelter and roosted and nested in its branches. [20] And again He said, To what shall I liken the kingdom of God? [21] It is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of wheat flour or meal until it was all leavened (fermented).

THE TRUE CONFESSION OF YOUR CREATOR
THE TRUE CONFESSION OF YOUR CREATOR
You have no idea how much I love you, or how long I will wait for you to call My name. I can't express how much, I long to hear your voice. Yes, I am the Almighty One and the creator of everything, and to most earthlings, that is all I will ever be. However there are some who have fallen deeply in love with Me. They are My beloved. Out of all of those I have chosen, these desire to be intimate with Me, and put Me before everyone else. They want to spend all their time with Me. They believe everything I say, and totally trust Me, no matter where I take them.
Everything in their lives center around what I want. Before they make any decisions, they make sure it will please Me. They don't just sing songs about Me, but they sing too Me. They always wait for Me and will never go anywhere without Me. They have offered up all their possessions to Me . They have given up their personal agendas, their dreams, their goals and even family and friends to be with Me.
They are the apple of My eye, because they have separated themselves unto Me, to be intimate with Me. Right now, I call them My friend, but soon I will take them as My bride. Ever since I created Adam I have waited for the day, you would make this commitment. I am so close that, when they cry, I understand and feel their pain, I rush to dry their tears. When they laugh I share their joy. As they travel the highways, I watch over them, I have even taken the wheel at times, to protect them. Oh how I enjoy so much, the time we spend together each day.
I love all My earthlings more than you can possibly understand, but when they love Me back with My own love, I cannot withhold any good thing. You will never know the tearing of My heart, how it is to love someone so much and not be able to be near them or communicate with them, because I know My own presence will destroy them. My holiness and my love are always conflicting one another, concerning My handmade creation. If I get too close to them, My holiness will destroy them, but My love, calls on My mercy, and together love and mercy hold back the destructive force of My holiness, and My earthlings are able to continue on in a state of sin and death without being destroyed. This gives more time for My love calls to continue, calling them to repent and to cover themselves with the blood My son shed, so they can not only live in My holiness, without being destroyed, but they themselves are made holy.
Then I call again to those who want to enter a secret place, a place of total commitment and surrender where I can be intimate with them. Very few answer this call but to those that do, there is nothing that I will not do for them. These are My beloved, the ones that wait up for me, the ones that keep their oil filled and lamps trimmed. They worry about nothing because they abide in My presence night and day. These are the elect that will sit with Me on My throne forever, they have made their home in the Holy of Holies.
Please understand My heart, it is not My will to exclude any of My earthlings. It is their unwillingness to leave all, that excludes them. Do not be content with answering the first call, answer the second call, come up higher into the bride chamber, where all the longings of your heart are met and you can be one with Me again as I was with Adam.
Genesis 1:26-27 (AMP)
God said, Let Us Father, Son, and Holy Spirit make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the tame beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything that creeps upon the earth.

But the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, Where are you?
Hebrews 12:25-29 (KJV)

[27] And this word , Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. [28] Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: [29] For our God is a consuming fire.

Song of Solomon 1:2-4 (KJV)
Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine. [3] Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee. [4] Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee.
Matthew 25:1-13 (AMP)
THEN THE kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. [2] Five of them were foolish (thoughtless, without forethought) and five were wise (sensible, intelligent, and prudent). [3] For when the foolish took their lamps, they did not take any extra oil with them; [4] But the wise took flasks of oil along with them also with their lamps. [5] While the bridegroom lingered and was slow in coming, they all began nodding their heads, and they fell asleep. [6] But at midnight there was a shout, Behold, the bridegroom! Go out to meet him! [7] Then all those virgins got up and put their own lamps in order. [8] And the foolish said to the wise, Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out. [9] But the wise replied, There will not be enough for us and for you; go instead to the dealers and buy for yourselves. [10] But while they were going away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were prepared went in with him to the marriage feast; and the door was shut. [11] Later the other virgins also came and said, Lord, Lord, open the door to us! [12] But He replied, I solemnly declare to you, I do not know you I am not acquainted with you. [13] Watch therefore give strict attention and be cautious and active, for you know neither the day nor the hour when the Son of Man will come.
John 15:7-12 (AMP)
If you live in Me abide vitally united to Me and My words remain in you and continue to live in your hearts, ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you.

[9] I have loved you, just as the Father has loved Me; abide in My love continue in His love with Me. [10] If you keep My commandments if you continue to obey My instructions, you will abide in My love and live on in it, just as I have obeyed My Father''s commandments and live on in His love. [11] I have told you these things, that My joy and delight may be in you, and that your joy and gladness may be of full measure and complete and overflowing. [12] This is My commandment: that you love one another just as I have loved you.
Revelation 19:5-9 (AMP)
Then from the throne there came a voice, saying, Praise our God, all you servants of His, you who reverence Him, both small and great! [6] After that I heard what sounded like the shout of a vast throng, like the boom of many pounding waves, and like the roar of terrific and mighty peals of thunder, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! For now the Lord our God the Omnipotent (the All-Ruler) reigns! [7] Let us rejoice and shout for joy exulting and triumphant! Let us celebrate and ascribe to Him glory and honor, for the marriage of the Lamb at last has come, and His bride has prepared herself. [8] She has been permitted to dress in fine (radiant) linen, dazzling and white--for the fine linen is (signifies, represents) the righteousness (the upright, just, and godly living, deeds, and conduct, and right standing with God) of the saints (God''s holy people). [9] Then the angel said to me, Write this down: Blessed (happy, to be envied) are those who are summoned (invited, called) to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he said to me further, These are the true words (the genuine and exact declarations) of God.
Matthew 7:13-14 (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.
Revelation 3:20-21 (AMP)
Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears and listens to and heeds My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and will eat with him, and he will eat with Me. [21] He who overcomes (is victorious), I will grant him to sit beside Me on My throne, as I Myself overcame (was victorious) and sat down beside My Father on His throne.
You have no idea how much I love you, or how long I will wait for you to call My name. I can't express how much, I long to hear your voice.

MY END TIME AND ALL TIME SURVIVAL PLAN
MY END TIME AND ALL TIME SURVIVAL PLAN
I have made plain the way to be sustained during troubled times. This is a place where the spiritual and the natural come together and melt into one. Your sure place of covering is in My manifest presence. Your sure place of supply is in My manifest presence. It is so clear in My word that most of you read past it, looking for something hidden.
As long as Adam was in My presence it was a paradise. When he had to leave My presence trouble and death plagued him all of his days. As long as Israel had the fire and the cloud, they had My presence, therefore My supply and protection. Joseph was in My presence I gave him the interpretation to pharaohs dream, that saved the whole nation of Israel. Mordecai was in My presence when he gave instruction to Esther, again saving a nation. The three Hebrew children were in My presence, the fire did not touch them and the whole world was made to recognize My power.
If you want to survive the end time trouble such as the world has never seen, learn to host My presence. Learn My ways, what I like and what I dislike, what I love and what I hate, then imitate it. How bad do you want to live? You cannot comprehend what is about to happen to your world, yet many are doing business as usual. Eating, drinking, marrying and giving in marriage like everything is fine.
Some have resigned themselves to a helpless attitude, which is a slothful attitude that I despise. Turn from your wicked ways, your wicked tv screens, and the pollution's of the world, and pay attention to what I love and desire. This is the only way you will host My presence. If you will not learn how abide in My presence 24/7 your are in serious trouble.
My words are life to those who have ears. But whoa to those that stop them up. What is coming on the earth is not My judgment, but My word being fulfilled. My love and foreknowledge is striving to protect you from the consequences of millenniums sin in the earth. I have a safe haven for all My children, who will avail themselves of My presence.
It is in My presence that you will hear My specific directions on exactly what steps to take to preserve one another. I will give wisdom and ideas in My presence. In My presence I call in men and women with expertise in every area necessary to sustain life. Anything you attempt on your own will end in disaster. The times of assumption and guessing are past.
Do not guess you hear My voice, but know My voice, your very life will depend on it. When I say, gather, then gather, when I say till, then till, If I say, sell, sell. When I say buy, you buy. I will tell you what to build, where to build, when to build and how to build. I will supply what you need to build, all in My presence. As I watched over My children for 40 years in the wilderness, I can better watch over you because I abide in you, but you must abide in My presence and love what I love and hate what I hate.
All recreation must now be in My presence, I will no longer take a back seat to your entertainment. When I become your entertainment you will be able to host My presence 24/7 and you will survive.
Genesis 3:8-10 (KJV)
And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden.

[10] And they saw the God of Israel that is, a convincing manifestation of His presence, and under His feet it was like pavement of bright sapphire stone, like the very heavens in clearness. [11] And upon the nobles of the Israelites He laid not His hand to conceal Himself from them, to rebuke their daring, or to harm them; but they saw the manifestation of the presence of God, and ate and drank.
Exodus 33:12-17 (AMP)
Moses said to the Lord, See, You say to me, Bring up this people, but You have not let me know whom You will send with me. Yet You said, I know you by name and you have also found favor in My sight. [13] Now therefore, I pray You, if I have found favor in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with You, perceiving and recognizing and understanding more strongly and clearly and that I may find favor in Your sight. And Lord, do consider that this nation is Your people. [14] And the Lord said, My Presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest. [15] And Moses said to the Lord, If Your Presence does not go with me, do not carry us up from here! [16] For by what shall it be known that I and Your people have found favor in Your sight? Is it not in Your going with us so that we are distinguished, I and Your people, from all the other people upon the face of the earth? [17] And the Lord said to Moses, I will do this thing also that you have asked, for you have found favor, loving-kindness, and mercy in My sight and I know you personally and by name.
Psalm 23:6 (AMP)
Surely or only goodness, mercy, and unfailing love shall follow me all the days of my life, and through the length of my days the house of the Lord and His presence shall be my dwelling place.
Psalm 101:7 (AMP)
He who works deceit shall not dwell in my house; he who tells lies shall not continue in my presence.
1 Corinthians 10:1-13 (AMP)
FOR I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, that our forefathers were all under and protected by the cloud in which God''s Presence went before them, and every one of them passed safely through the Red Sea, [2] And each one of them allowed himself also to be baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea they were thus brought under obligation to the Law, to Moses, and to the covenant, consecrated and set apart to the service of God; [3] And all of them ate the same spiritual (supernaturally given) food, [4] And they all drank the same spiritual (supernaturally given) drink. For they drank from a spiritual Rock which followed them produced by the sole power of God Himself without natural instrumentality, and the Rock was Christ. [5] Nevertheless, God was not pleased with the great majority of them, for they were overthrown and strewn down along the ground in the wilderness. [6] Now these things are examples (warnings and admonitions) for us not to desire or crave or covet or lust after evil and carnal things as they did. [7] Do not be worshipers of false gods as some of them were, as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink the sacrifices offered to the golden calf at Horeb and rose to sport (to dance and give way to jesting and hilarity). [8] We must not gratify evil desire and indulge in immorality as some of them did--and twenty-three thousand suddenly fell dead in a single day! [9] We should not tempt the Lord try His patience, become a trial to Him, critically appraise Him, and exploit His goodness as some of them did--and were killed by poisonous serpents; [10] Nor discontentedly complain as some of them did--and were put out of the way entirely by the destroyer (death). [11] Now these things befell them by way of a figure as an example and warning to us; they were written to admonish and fit us for right action by good instruction, we in whose days the ages have reached their climax (their consummation and concluding period). [12] Therefore let anyone who thinks he stands who feels sure that he has a steadfast mind and is standing firm, take heed lest he fall into sin. [13] For no temptation (no trial regarded as enticing to sin), no matter how it comes or where it leads has overtaken you and laid hold on you that is not common to man that is, no temptation or trial has come to you that is beyond human resistance and that is not adjusted and adapted and belonging to human experience, and such as man can bear. But God is faithful to His Word and to His compassionate nature, and He can be trusted not to let you be tempted and tried and assayed beyond your ability and strength of resistance and power to endure, but with the temptation He will always also provide the way out (the means of escape to a landing place), that you may be capable and strong and powerful to bear up under it patiently.
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.
Matthew 23:37 (KJV)
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
Psalm 16:11 (KJV)
Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
I have made plain the way to be sustained during troubled times. This is a place where the spiritual and the natural come together and melt into one. Your sure place of covering is in My manifest presence. Your sure place of supply is in My manifest presence. It is so clear in My word that most of you read past it, looking for something hidden.
As long as Adam was in My presence it was a paradise. When he had to leave My presence trouble and death plagued him all of his days. As long as Israel had the fire and the cloud, they had My presence, therefore My supply and protection. Joseph was in My presence I gave him the interpretation to pharaohs dream, that saved the whole nation of Israel. Mordecai was in My presence when he gave instruction to Esther, again saving a nation. The three Hebrew children were in My presence, the fire did not touch them and the whole world was made to recognize My power.
If you want to survive the end time trouble such as the world has never seen, learn to host My presence. Learn My ways, what I like and what I dislike, what I love and what I hate, then imitate it. How bad do you want to live? You cannot comprehend what is about to happen to your world, yet many are doing business as usual. Eating, drinking, marrying and giving in marriage like everything is fine.
Some have resigned themselves to a helpless attitude, which is a slothful attitude that I despise. Turn from your wicked ways, your wicked tv screens, and the pollution's of the world, and pay attention to what I love and desire. This is the only way you will host My presence. If you will not learn how abide in My presence 24/7 your are in serious trouble.
My words are life to those who have ears. But whoa to those that stop them up. What is coming on the earth is not My judgment, but My word being fulfilled. My love and foreknowledge is striving to protect you from the consequences of millenniums sin in the earth. I have a safe haven for all My children, who will avail themselves of My presence.
It is in My presence that you will hear My specific directions on exactly what steps to take to preserve one another. I will give wisdom and ideas in My presence. In My presence I call in men and women with expertise in every area necessary to sustain life. Anything you attempt on your own will end in disaster. The times of assumption and guessing are past.
Do not guess you hear My voice, but know My voice, your very life will depend on it. When I say, gather, then gather, when I say till, then till, If I say, sell, sell. When I say buy, you buy. I will tell you what to build, where to build, when to build and how to build. I will supply what you need to build, all in My presence. As I watched over My children for 40 years in the wilderness, I can better watch over you because I abide in you, but you must abide in My presence and love what I love and hate what I hate.
All recreation must now be in My presence, I will no longer take a back seat to your entertainment. When I become your entertainment you will be able to host My presence 24/7 and you will survive.
Genesis 3:8-10 (KJV)
And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden. [9] And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? [10] And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
Exodus 13:21-22 (AMP)
The Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them along the way and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, that they might travel by day and by night. [22] The pillar of cloud by day and the pillar of fire by night did not depart from before the people.
Genesis 24:40 (AMP)
And he said to me, The Lord, in Whose presence I walk habitually, will send His Angel with you and prosper your way, and you will take a wife for my son from my kindred and from my father''s house.

I WILL TRADE YOU, MY GIFTS FOR YOUR TALENTS
I WILL TRADE YOU, MY GIFTS FOR YOUR TALENTS
When the enemy comes in like a flood and you are being overwhelmed those who have traded their talents for My gifts, will be greatly sought after. Your gifts are called talents, they are natural born. They are possessed by sinner and saint alike. Talents are used to make some people very rich. They greater the talent the greater the gain. Some and talented comedians and people will pay large sums to make them laugh. Talented artists will paint, paintings that will bring as much as a million dollars.
There are talented singers, musicians, speakers, dancers, and others. There also talented tradesmen and craftsmen, that work with their hands to produce services and products that people are anxious to purchase and own.
These are all natural born and therefore of the flesh and not usable in the kingdom. Talents are not sin, but are born of sinful flesh and therefore corrupt by the nature of there birthplace, the soul of sinful man. All talent finds it's origin in the soul. When a soul is cast down it cannot produce the talent needed to overcome, thus depraved human nature will seek relieve in sinful pleasures where many loose their life to addictions.
When a person becomes born again, it means their spirit is made alive by My presence in the core of their being. All else is unaffected until it is surrendered to Me. A thief becomes a born again thief, he just steals in different ways until I change his thieving character.
In the same way when you are born again, the talents you possess are not converted, they are still part of the natural man. Many carnal leaders hungry for talent will snatch up new believers for their talent, and attempt to use them in worshiping Me. It looks good and sounds good and even feels good but it is only temporary because it is from the soul not the spirit. Many of these new believers burn out quickly because unknowingly they are fighting wickedness in high places with carnal weapons.
No matter how good they may sound it's an offering of strange fire to Me. Talent loves and thrives on praise, the praise that belongs only to Me. The only worship excepted in My kingdom must come from the spirit not the soul. Soul talent can only minister to the soul, which is very temporary and shallow. Spiritual people will recognize the shallowness seek out gifted worshipers to lead them.
The born again professional thief cannot go out and begin stealing for Me, but must surrender his thieving ways to Me so I can redeem that portion of his character. So it is with the talents of man. Wether you are a talented thief, dancer, singer, speaker, teacher, painter, or craftsman, your talent's birthplace is all the same, the unregenerate soul.
EVERY TALENT MUST BE SURRENDERED TO ME, to do with as I please. I will then give it back as a gift, now it becomes a privilege, an anointed gift that will flow from your new born spirit, which is able to lift up even the most downcast soul. Even if the talents of the unregenerate soul are considered masterful in the natural, they are never taken seriously or even heard in the spirit realms. Even the least of gifts can penetrate spiritual walls that the greatest talents will bounce off of.
Whatever you use to worship Me, it must originate in Me, nothing less will be accepted. There is no limit to the power of a totally surrendered life, where I control everything, on a moment by moment voluntary basis. Surrender your talents today and watch where My gifts will take you tomorrow.
Leviticus 10:1-3 (AMP)
AND NADAB and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, and put incense on it, and offered strange and unholy fire before the Lord, as He had not commanded them. [2] And there came forth fire from before the Lord and killed them, and they died before the Lord. [3] Then Moses said to Aaron, This is what the Lord meant when He said, I and My will, not their own will be acknowledged as hallowed by those who come near Me, and before all the people I will be honored. And Aaron said nothing.
Exodus 30:28-33 (AMP)
And the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils, and the laver for cleansing and its base. [29] You shall sanctify (separate) them, that they may be most holy; whoever and whatever touches them must be holy (set apart to God). [30] And you shall anoint Aaron and his sons and sanctify (separate) them, that they may minister to Me as priests. [31] And say to the Israelites, This is a holy anointing oil symbol of the Holy Spirit, sacred to Me alone throughout your generations. [32] It shall not be poured upon a layman''s body, nor shall you make any other like it in composition; it is holy, and you shall hold it sacred. [33] Whoever compounds any like it or puts any of it upon an outsider shall be cut off from his people.
John 4:24 (AMP)
God is a Spirit (a spiritual Being) and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth (reality).
John 3:6 (AMP)
What is born of from the flesh is flesh of the physical is physical; and what is born of the Spirit is spirit.
1 Corinthians 15:45-50 (AMP)
Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit restoring the dead to life. [46] But it is not the spiritual life which came first, but the physical and then the spiritual. [47] The first man was from out of earth, made of dust (earthly-minded); the second Man is the Lord from out of heaven. [48] Now those who are made of the dust are like him who was first made of the dust (earthly-minded); and as is the Man from heaven, so also are those who are of heaven (heavenly-minded). [49] And just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, so shall we and so let us also bear the image of the Man of heaven. [50] But I tell you this, brethren, flesh and blood cannot become partakers of eternal salvation and inherit or share in the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable (that which is decaying) inherit or share in the imperishable (the immortal).
2 Corinthians 10:3-5 (AMP)
For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons. [4] 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),
Psalm 24:3-10 (AMP)
Who shall go up into the mountain of the Lord? Or who shall stand in His Holy Place? [4] He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted himself up to falsehood or to what is false, nor sworn deceitfully. [5] He shall receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation. [6] This is the generation description of those who seek Him who inquire of and for Him and of necessity require Him, who seek Your face, O God of Jacob. Selah pause, and think of that! [7] Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be lifted up, you age-abiding doors, that the King of glory may come in. [8] Who is the King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. [9] Lift up your heads, O you gates; yes, lift them up, you age-abiding doors, that the King of glory may come in. [10] Who is He then this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah pause, and think of that!

[5] He shall receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation. [6] This is the generation description of those who seek Him who inquire of and for Him and of necessity require Him, who seek Your face, O God of Jacob. Selah pause, and think of that! [7] Lift up your heads, O you gates; and be lifted up, you age-abiding doors, that the King of glory may come in. [8] Who is the King of glory? The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle. [9] Lift up your heads, O you gates; yes, lift them up, you age-abiding doors, that the King of glory may come in. [10] Who is He then this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah pause, and think of that!

I AM NOT SEEKER FRIENDLY!!!
I AM NOT SEEKER FRIENDLY!!!
From the time of Adam, I have yet to find anyone seeking what I have to offer. The end of you and the beginning of Me. When you have no more, no more strength, no more fight, no more ideas, no more money, no more will to go on and no more plans, only then I am able to work the works of God in your life.
To strip all of self from you is a very painful process, especially if you are a strong person. Your strong will is beginning to reject this message already, because of the very thought of the pain. All of the things you worked so hard for and even considered assets to My kingdom, will be put on the chopping block.
In order for My kingdom to come, your kingdom must go. No matter how much you say you love me, it is not pure, until all of self has been removed. This process is painful even to think about, but you will not enter the kingdom without it. No flesh shall glory in My presence, and going through the eye of the needle will strip away all the baggage of your accomplishments.
What you call baggage is the simply scars of a sinful life, which I can heal in a second, what I call baggage are the things you boast about and cling too. The things you know, what you can do, what you plan on doing, or the things you have done.
You have been taught to build your security on your accomplishments. Years of doing, doing, doing to make you feel good about yourself, to gain the respect of others, to have relatives, friends and strangers say, "well done", have all got to go. They must be stripped off in order to get through kingdom's gate. The rich young ruler's money represented all his accomplishments, he never even tried to go through the gate, he simply walked away.
I can see the struggle in your soul, you are fighting this with all that is with in you, but My spirit in you, is confirming it as truth. I know your heart and it's longing to be close to My heart. You cannot get close to My heart without entering My kingdom. As your desire draws you through the gate, you will seem to fail at everything you were once good at, because the ugly baggage of self confidence, is at last being stripped away.
As you struggle and twist and turn to get through the gate, your lips will finally utter the words, "I can't go on any more, I am at the end of my rope, I have no more will to fight, I have nothing more to offer, I have no more strength, unless you take over Father I am finished. The opening of the gate is the exact shape of your naked self, all attempts to bring anything with you will fail. On the other side of the gate, there is none of you and all of Me. Unless you come through the gate that way, you would be destroyed by My holiness.
The pain is great because the ugly baggage of self confidence is deep in you, and it's roots are wrapped around your will, just as an infected tooth finds it's roots wrapped around a jaw bone. Even your determination to serve Me must go, because it is based on what you think you have to offer the kingdom.
My kingdom is not at all, seeker friendly, but when all of you is finally gone, then you will see all of Me, taking you through the gate. From that day forth people will say,"I just don't understand you any more," because you will have finally entered into My rest and you will then see My kingdom come and My will be done in you.
John 3:30 (AMP)
He must increase, but I must decrease. He must grow more prominent; I must grow less so.
Luke 13:23-24 (AMP)
And someone asked Him, Lord, will only a few be saved (rescued, delivered from the penalties of the last judgment, and made partakers of the salvation by Christ)? And He said to them, [24] Strive to enter by the narrow door force yourselves through it, for many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able.
Matthew 7:13-14 (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.
Revelation 22:13-14 (AMP)
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last (the Before all and the End of all). [14] Blessed (happy and to be envied) are those who cleanse their garments, that they may have the authority and right to approach the tree of life and to enter through the gates into the city.
Colossians 3:5 (AMP)
So kill (deaden, deprive of power) the evil desire lurking in your members those animal impulses and all that is earthly in you that is employed in sin: sexual vice, impurity, sensual appetites, unholy desires, and all greed and covetousness, for that is idolatry (the deifying of self and other created things instead of God).
Philippians 3:7-9 (AMP)
But whatever former things I had that might have been gains to me, I have come to consider as one combined loss for Christ''s sake. [8] Yes, furthermore, I count everything as loss compared to the possession of the priceless privilege (the overwhelming preciousness, the surpassing worth, and supreme advantage) of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord and of progressively becoming more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him of perceiving and recognizing and understanding Him more fully and clearly. For His sake I have lost everything and consider it all to be mere rubbish (refuse, dregs), in order that I may win (gain) Christ (the Anointed One), [9] And that I may actually be found and known as in Him, not having any self-achieved righteousness that can be called my own, based on my obedience to the Law''s demands (ritualistic uprightness and supposed right standing with God thus acquired), but possessing that genuine righteousness which comes through faith in Christ (the Anointed One), the truly right standing with God, which comes from God by saving faith.
John 6:63 (AMP)
It is the Spirit Who gives life He is the Life-giver; the flesh conveys no benefit whatever there is no profit in it. The words (truths) that I have been speaking to you are spirit and life.
Romans 7:18 (AMP)
For I know that nothing good dwells within me, that is, in my flesh. I can will what is right, but I cannot perform it. I have the intention and urge to do what is right, but no power to carry it out.
Romans 8:12-14,18 (KJV)
Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. [13] For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. [14] For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. [18] For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
1 Corinthians 1:25-29 (KJV)
Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. [26] For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called : [27] But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; [28] And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea , and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: [29] That no flesh should glory in his presence.
Philippians 3:3 (AMP)
For we Christians are the true circumcision, who worship God in spirit and by the Spirit of God and exult and glory and pride ourselves in Jesus Christ, and put no confidence or dependence on what we are in the flesh and on outward privileges and physical advantages and external appearances--
1 Corinthians 2:14-16 (AMP)
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.

SPIRITUAL BOOT CAMP, ADVANCE TRAINING, OR SPECIAL FORCES, WHAT DID YOU SIGN UP FOR?
SPIRITUAL BOOT CAMP, ADVANCE TRAINING, OR SPECIAL FORCES, WHAT DID YOU SIGN UP FOR?
First natural, then the spiritual. To this generation I still speak in parables, that you may understand My plan and My ways. Every volunteer, all races, colors, creeds, males and females must go through boot camp upon entering the military.
It is the same in My army. Everyone must pick up their cross and march through the same trials and tribulations, having their salvation pushed to the limit. Many drop out because they enlist for wrong reasons, usually because their recruiter was deceptive in his presentation. Some recruiters mislead by promising things that I never promised. Such as a place of recognition or prominence, financial security, a life with no more problems, or the most popular verbal agreement, commonly referred to as, the sinners prayer, with no commitment.
The requirements are the same as the natural, leave all (ambitions, goals, possessions) and be trained in the basics of service, in the kings army. Know your weapons, know your strengths and weaknesses and know your limits. Learn to obey without question, have faith in your commander, and come to an understanding of, laying down your life for your friend.
The, leave all requirement, eliminates more new recruits, than any other. Obeying without question is second, because it requires having faith in a commander they cannot see. Laying down ones life is the final test required to graduate My spiritual boot camp. Coming from a lifetime of living for self, most new recruits, must repeat this test over and over until they get it right. Many appear on the surface to get it right, but if they do not do it with love and joy, they flunk.
My boot camp differs when it comes to the war games. I train you by allowing real enemy forces to attack, but I limit his attacks, to no more than you can stand, knowing he is well trained in deception and never plays a game. I play games with him, because I have already defeated him, but only I can do that, not even My generals are allowed to toy with him. He can never defeat any of My recruits that stick with all the basics. Before leaving basic training every soldier will have defeated the enemy several times, being skilled in the use of My arsenal of weapons. He is well protected, being outfitted with all My armor.
The graduate recruit then moves to advance special training, where they are taught to use their unique special gifts through exercise. Here, repetition is mother of learning. Each of nine gifts are practiced over and over until graduates become experts in their use. Dozens of other gifts are discovered as training advances.
Many develop pride issues, become unteachable and go AWOL before learning to use their gift proficiently under My specific direction. These cause embarrassment to the rest of My soldiers and cause the enemy to triumph by chasing away would be recruits, who view them as unskilful fools.
Those who graduate advance training, form strong brigades that become places of refuge for those defecting from the enemies camp.
My Special forces are an elite group, not in position, but in commitment. They are mostly single and have no fear of physical death or hardship. They advance well behind enemy lines, deep into his strongholds, to release captives that others think impossible to rescue.
They willingly live in unthinkable conditions, doing whatever is necessary to set the captive free. Some gladly, loose their lives and come home to Me, counting it gain. These are extremely well trained in knowing my voice, understanding that their very lives depend on understanding my every word.
They make regular use of miracles, using them as tools not testimonies. They are trained in the use of all nine gifts and use one or more of them daily. They are in covert operations much of the time, and take no glory for themselves. They are confident their reward is here with Me and thus prefer to remain unnoticed. The world is not worthy of these.
I ask you two things: Did you understand all this when you volunteered? If not, do you still want stay? I just want to remind you, I have already won, but you have not. Your battle is about to get very intense, such as the world has never seen. If you join My forces and stay close to Me, your victory is guaranteed. If you choose not too, you will die. I need an answer soldier.
Luke 14:31-33 (AMP)
Or what king, going out to engage in conflict with another king, will not first sit down and consider and take counsel whether he is able with ten thousand men to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? [32] And if he cannot do so, when the other king is still a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks the terms of peace. [33] So then, any of you who does not forsake (renounce, surrender claim to, give up, say good-bye to) all that he has cannot be My disciple.
1 Corinthians 10:13 (AMP)
For no temptation (no trial regarded as enticing to sin), no matter how it comes or where it leads has overtaken you and laid hold on you that is not common to man that is, no temptation or trial has come to you that is beyond human resistance and that is not adjusted and adapted and belonging to human experience, and such as man can bear. But God is faithful to His Word and to His compassionate nature, and He can be trusted not to let you be tempted and tried and assayed beyond your ability and strength of resistance and power to endure, but with the temptation He will always also provide the way out (the means of escape to a landing place), that you may be capable and strong and powerful to bear up under it patiently.
2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (AMP)
For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons. [4] 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), [6] Being in readiness to punish every insubordinate for his disobedience, when your own submission and obedience as a church are fully secured and complete.
1 Timothy 1:18-20 (AMP)
This charge and admonition I commit in trust to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with prophetic intimations which I formerly received concerning you, so that inspired and aided by them you may wage the good warfare, [19] Holding fast to faith (that leaning of the entire human personality on God in absolute trust and confidence) and having a good (clear) conscience. By rejecting and thrusting from them their conscience, some individuals have made shipwreck of their faith. [20] Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan in order that they may be disciplined by punishment and learn not to blaspheme.
Matthew 13:18-23 (KJV)
Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. [19] When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one , and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side. [20] But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; [21] Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. [22] He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. [23] But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it ; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
1 Peter 2:11-12 (AMP)
Beloved, I implore you as aliens and strangers and exiles in this world to abstain from the sensual urges (the evil desires, the passions of the flesh, your lower nature) that wage war against the soul. [12] Conduct yourselves properly (honorably, righteously) among the Gentiles, so that, although they may slander you as evildoers, yet they may by witnessing your good deeds come to glorify God in the day of inspection when God shall look upon you wanderers as a pastor or shepherd looks over his flock.
1 Timothy 6:12 (KJV)
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
.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).
Jude 1:9 (AMP)
But when even the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, judicially argued (disputed) about the body of Moses, he dared not presume to bring an abusive condemnation against him, but simply said, The Lord rebuke you!
Hebrews 11:32-40 (KJV)
And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: [33] Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, [34] Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. [35] Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: [36] And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: [37] They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; [38] (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. [39] And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: [40] God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
Luke 10:18-20 (AMP)
And He said to them, I saw Satan falling like a lightning flash from heaven. [19] Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and physical and mental strength and ability over all the power that the enemy possesses; and nothing shall in any way harm you. [20] Nevertheless, do not rejoice at this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are enrolled in heaven.
Revelation 12:7-11 (KJV)
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, [8] And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. [9] And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. [10] And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. [11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
1 John 5:4 (KJV)
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
Revelation 21:7-8 (KJV)
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. [8] But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Joshua 24:15 (KJV)
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord , choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord .

I train you by allowing real enemy forces to attack, but I limit his attacks, to no more than you can stand, knowing he is well trained in deception and never plays a game. I play games with him, because I have already defeated him, but only I can do that, not even My generals are allowed to toy with him. He can never defeat any of My recruits that stick with all the basics. Before leaving basic training every soldier will have defeated the enemy several times, being skilled in the use of My arsenal of weapons. He is well protected, being outfitted with all My armor.
The graduate recruit then moves to advance special training, where they are taught to use their unique special gifts through exercise. Here, repetition is mother of learning. Each of nine gifts are practiced over and over until graduates become experts in their use. Dozens of other gifts are discovered as training advances.
Many develop pride issues, become unteachable and go AWOL before learning to use their gift proficiently under My specific direction. These cause embarrassment to the rest of My soldiers and cause the enemy to triumph by chasing away would be recruits, who view them as unskilful fools.
Those who graduate advance training, form strong brigades that become places of refuge for those defecting from the enemies camp.
My Special forces are an elite group, not in position, but in commitment. They are mostly single and have no fear of physical death or hardship. They advance well behind enemy lines, deep into his strongholds, to release captives that others think impossible to rescue.
They willingly live in unthinkable conditions, doing whatever is necessary to set the captive free. Some gladly, loose their lives and come home to Me, counting it gain. These are extremely well trained in knowing my voice, understanding that their very lives depend on understanding my every word.
They make regular use of miracles, using them as tools not testimonies. They are trained in the use of all nine gifts and use one or more of them daily. They are in covert operations much of the time, and take no glory for themselves. They are confident their reward is here with Me and thus prefer to remain unnoticed. The world is not worthy of these.
I ask you two things: Did you understand all this when you volunteered? If not, do you still want stay? I just want to remind you, I have already won, but you have not. Your battle is about to get very intense, such as the world has never seen. If you join My forces and stay close to Me, your victory is guaranteed. If you choose not too, you will die. I need an answer soldier.
Luke 14:31-33 (AMP)
Or what king, going out to engage in conflict with another king, will not first sit down and consider and take counsel whether he is able with ten thousand men to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? [32] And if he cannot do so, when the other king is still a great way off, he sends an envoy and asks the terms of peace. [33] So then, any of you who does not forsake (renounce, surrender claim to, give up, say good-bye to) all that he has cannot be My disciple.
1 Corinthians 10:13 (AMP)
For no temptation (no trial regarded as enticing to sin), no matter how it comes or where it leads has overtaken you and laid hold on you that is not common to man that is, no temptation or trial has come to you that is beyond human resistance and that is not adjusted and adapted and belonging to human experience, and such as man can bear. But God is faithful to His Word and to His compassionate nature, and He can be trusted not to let you be tempted and tried and assayed beyond your ability and strength of resistance and power to endure, but with the temptation He will always also provide the way out (the means of escape to a landing place), that you may be capable and strong and powerful to bear up under it patiently.
2 Corinthians 10:3-6 (AMP)
For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons. [4] 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), [6] Being in readiness to punish every insubordinate for his disobedience, when your own submission and obedience as a church are fully secured and complete.
1 Timothy 1:18-20 (AMP)
This charge and admonition I commit in trust to you, Timothy, my son, in accordance with prophetic intimations which I formerly received concerning you, so that inspired and aided by them you may wage the good warfare, [19] Holding fast to faith (that leaning of the entire human personality on God in absolute trust and confidence) and having a good (clear) conscience. By rejecting and thrusting from them their conscience, some individuals have made shipwreck of their faith. [20] Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan in order that they may be disciplined by punishment and learn not to blaspheme.
Matthew 13:18-23 (KJV)
Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower. [19] When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one , and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side. [20] But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it; [21] Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended. [22] He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful. [23] But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it ; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.
1 Peter 2:11-12 (AMP)
Beloved, I implore you as aliens and strangers and exiles in this world to abstain from the sensual urges (the evil desires, the passions of the flesh, your lower nature) that wage war against the soul. [12] Conduct yourselves properly (honorably, righteously) among the Gentiles, so that, although they may slander you as evildoers, yet they may by witnessing your good deeds come to glorify God in the day of inspection when God shall look upon you wanderers as a pastor or shepherd looks over his flock.
1 Timothy 6:12 (KJV)
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.
.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).
Jude 1:9 (AMP)
But when even the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, judicially argued (disputed) about the body of Moses, he dared not presume to bring an abusive condemnation against him, but simply said, The Lord rebuke you!
Hebrews 11:32-40 (KJV)
And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets: [33] Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, [34] Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. [35] Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: [36] And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: [37] They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; [38] (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. [39] And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: [40] God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.
Luke 10:18-20 (AMP)
And He said to them, I saw Satan falling like a lightning flash from heaven. [19] Behold! I have given you authority and power to trample upon serpents and scorpions, and physical and mental strength and ability over all the power that the enemy possesses; and nothing shall in any way harm you. [20] Nevertheless, do not rejoice at this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are enrolled in heaven.
Revelation 12:7-11 (KJV)
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, [8] And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. [9] And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. [10] And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. [11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
1 John 5:4 (KJV)
For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.
Revelation 21:7-8 (KJV)
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. [8] But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
Joshua 24:15 (KJV)
And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord , choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord .

KINGDOM SHOCK TREATMENTS
KINGDOM SHOCK TREATMENTS
Self deception in 1st world nations is common both in the spiritual and physical. The comfort of 1st world living is deceiving, because it causes you to believe all is well, as long as you feel good. It causes you to put the suffering of others on the back burner, while you are busy, building walls to protect your comfort zone. Your 401k, your investments, savings accounts and retirement plans are all walls to protect your comfort.
The enemy has already deceived many believers into thinking these things are a blessing from Me. How could one ever be so far from My teachings and not know it. False teachers have been unchallenged for so long, that heresy has become truth in Babylon. If you tell a lie often enough, people will establish it as truth. The dollar becoming synonymous with blessing is a lie that has been established as truth.
When someone says, "God really blessed me this week", everyone is thinking, how big was the check. There were also drug dealers that received much bigger checks that day. Human traffickers made much more that week. If it is stored for your comfort it becomes a curse. It only becomes a blessing from Me when it is given away, to the poor, the widow, and the orphan.
The moment it is given away it starts drawing interest in the kingdom. Then you can refer to it as a blessing. I supply food and clothes and all the necessities of life as a byproduct of seeking My kingdom first. Due to years false prosperity teaching, It is near impossible for first world saints to know their faith level, in Me.
By mixing material goods with spiritual blessings one will quickly enter into deception, claiming to have faith but not knowing if their faith is in Me or the god of mammon. Mammon god, known in the world as The federal reserve, has detailed plans to make you his slaves as he establishes his one world government. By setting up an evil system of, enslavement to debt to control, people can no longer move without his permission. Not one portion of My kingdom is under his control, nor has it ever been.
You have know idea how much of your faith, hope and trust, is in mammon god until I give you a shock treatment. If it were not for these treatments you would serve another god and be doomed to be his slave. The shock treatments come when you least expect it. I shock you by causing the failure of anything you trust in, anything that gives you comfort, other than Me. At that very moment you know how much of you is only talk and how much is real faith in Me.
As these things fail, If you are gripped by fear, get depressed, get angry, or despair of life, it reveals that you are still deceived, believing your faith was totally in Me. People hear the brave confession, "God is in control", but I hear your trembling heart add, "I hope". Because I love you, the shocks only last for a little while. These shock tests will be repeated over and over until a peaceful calm, and unwavering trust in Me is constant.
Then you will be ready to overcome the mammon god, by believing and receiving my supernatural supply. You can be sure that the time when no man can work, will arrive. The time when no man can work enough to pay off his debt, is already here. His advertisements, offering low interest loans, so you can eat, drink and be merry, have served him well, as the doors to enslavement of millions. Now the doors have closed and people are realizing the trap has sprung.
Those that are called by My name, will respond to the shock treatments by returning to their first love, and trusting Me to supply all their needs. They will refuse enslavement by standing against the god of mammon, declaring take back, if you must, but we will serve Jehovah God and Him only will we serve.
Faith to make this declaration is a byproduct of intimacy with Me. This kind of faith is only developed in the secret place with Me. Come spend time with Me every day, and there will be no further need, for shock treatments.
Matthew 6:24 (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).
Matthew 6:19-21 (AMP)
Do not gather and heap up and store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust and worm consume and destroy, and where thieves break through and steal. [20] But gather and heap up and store for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust nor worm consume and destroy, and where thieves do not break through and steal; [21] For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 19:21 (AMP)
Jesus answered him, If you would be perfect that is, have that spiritual maturity which accompanies self-sacrificing character, go and sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven; and come, be My disciple side with My party and follow Me.
Luke 6:38 (AMP)
Give, and gifts will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will they pour into the pouch formed by the bosom of your robe and used as a bag. For with the measure you deal out with the measure you use when you confer benefits on others, it will be measured back to you.
Luke 6:38 (AMP)
Give, and gifts will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will they pour into the pouch formed by the bosom of your robe and used as a bag.

Matthew 6:31-33 (AMP)
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.
Mark 4:18-19 (AMP)
And the ones sown among the thorns are others who hear the Word; [19] Then the cares and anxieties of the world and distractions of the age, and the pleasure and delight and false glamour and deceitfulness of riches, and the craving and passionate desire for other things creep in and choke and suffocate the Word, and it becomes fruitless.
Romans 11:33 (AMP)
Oh, the depth of the riches and wisdom and knowledge of God! How unfathomable (inscrutable, unsearchable) are His judgments (His decisions)! And how untraceable (mysterious, undiscoverable) are His ways (His methods, His paths)!
2 Peter 2:18-20 (KJV)
For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error. [19] While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. [20] For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
Psalm 20:7 (AMP)
Some trust in and boast of chariots and some of horses, but we will trust in and boast of the name of the Lord our God.

IF YOU REALLY WANT MY PRESENCE, IT'S RIGHT OVER HERE
IF YOU REALLY WANT MY PRESENCE, IT'S RIGHT OVER HERE
Just outside your schedule, just beyond the time, you think you must leave, but not quite sure why. Just past the important meeting that everybody said, "you won't want to miss". I heard you sing, " I'm desperate you" several times, so I am planning to meet with you at the same time your favorite team is playing, if that's ok?
So many times I have passed you in the doorway, I was coming in as you were leaving. I saw impatience written across your heart. You had allotted a certain amount of time for Me to show up, and when I didn't meet your schedule, you left. I had so much planned for you. All the longings of your heart, I was bringing through the door as you were leaving. My heart ached for you, because I knew I had just what you been asking for all year.
You are not alone, first world believers are all alike, because they have been taught wrong. They were never told that I always show up, when man's show is over. If you have a program, I will show up when it is finished. Some times I enjoy surprising everyone by being there, before anyone arrives. If there are two or three sensitive people that attend the meeting, I will stay around and wait for them to notice Me. If they do and are bold enough to obey Me, I will take charge of the meeting, but only if I am invited. Most of the time I am rushed out the door, when someone reaches for the program, or looks at their watch.
You must know by now, that I am not into the traditions of men, so why do leaders tell their followers to keep expecting me to show up at their functions. The only thing I want to do to flesh is kill it, so if I showed up at these functions, I would ruin the show, just like I messed up the temple that day.
Be of good cheer, I have enacted a new plan, you could say, I am doing a new thing. I am turning up the desperate level in thousands of 1st world believers. The thirst and hunger level is now going to a do or die intensity.
Their pursuit will be so hot, that meals and sleep will be set aside with out being mentioned. Only the necessities of life will tear them away from seeking My face. Their desire to leave this present world will be so strong that they will cry, Lord Jesus come quickly. This cry will not be out of fear or to escape distress, but out of a yearning of the Spirit to be fully in My presence.
They will speak in tongues for hours because their native language will leave them speechless. The groanings in the spirit will seem endless. No eye, nor heart, has experienced what I am now beginning to do. As My kingdom comes on the earth, be ready for massive changes to occur in your inner man. This transformation is radical and is a must for all manifest sons of God that are to be revealed. Each of these will be fit for the kingdom of God.
Psalm 53:2 (KJV)
God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
Psalm 37:7 (KJV)
Rest in the Lord , and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
James 1:4 (KJV)
But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
Psalm 33:18 (AMP)
Behold, the Lord''s eye is upon those who fear Him who revere and worship Him with awe, who wait for Him and hope in His mercy and loving-kindness,
Psalm 37:9 (KJV)
For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord , they shall inherit the earth.
Isaiah 40:31 (AMP)
But those who wait for the Lord who expect, look for, and hope in Him shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up close to God as eagles mount up to the sun; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.
Psalm 119:2 (AMP)
Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are they who keep His testimonies, and who seek, inquire for and of Him and crave Him with the whole heart.
Matthew 7:8 (AMP)
For everyone who keeps on asking receives; and he who keeps on seeking finds; and to him who keeps on knocking, the door will be opened.
Matthew 13:44 (AMP)
The kingdom of heaven is like something precious buried in a field, which a man found and hid again; then in his joy he goes and sells all he has and buys that field.
Matthew 23:1-2,4-8 (KJV)
Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, [2] Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: [4] For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. [5] But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, [6] And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, [7] And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. [8] But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
Matthew 23:1 (AMP)
THEN JESUS said to the multitudes and to His disciples,
Mark 7:9 (KJV)

And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: [29] And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
Romans 8:19,22-23,26-31 (AMP)
For even the whole creation (all nature) waits expectantly and longs earnestly for God''s sons to be made known waits for the revealing, the disclosing of their sonship. [22] We know that the whole creation of irrational creatures has been moaning together in the pains of labor until now. [23] And not only the creation, but we ourselves too, who have and enjoy the firstfruits of the Holy Spirit a foretaste of the blissful things to come groan inwardly as we wait for the redemption of our bodies from sensuality and the grave, which will reveal our adoption (our manifestation as God''s sons). [26] So too the Holy Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness; for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance. [27] And He Who searches the hearts of men knows what is in the mind of the Holy Spirit what His intent is, because the Spirit intercedes and pleads before God in behalf of the saints according to and in harmony with God''s will. [28] We are assured and know that God being a partner in their labor all things work together and are fitting into a plan for good to and for those who love God and are called according to His design and purpose. [29] For those whom He foreknew of whom He was aware and loved beforehand, He also destined from the beginning foreordaining them to be molded into the image of His Son and share inwardly His likeness, that He might become the firstborn among many brethren. [30] And those whom He thus foreordained, He also called; and those whom He called, He also justified (acquitted, made righteous, putting them into right standing with Himself). And those whom He justified, He also glorified raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state of being. [31] What then shall we say to all this? If God is for us, who can be against us? Who can be our foe, if God is on our side?
Just outside your schedule, just beyond the time, you think you must leave, but not quite sure why. Just past the important meeting that everybody said, "you won't want to miss". I heard you sing, " I'm desperate you" several times, so I am planning to meet with you at the same time your favorite team is playing, if that's ok?
So many times I have passed you in the doorway, I was coming in as you were leaving. I saw impatience written across your heart. You had allotted a certain amount of time for Me to show up, and when I didn't meet your schedule, you left. I had so much planned for you. All the longings of your heart, I was bringing through the door as you were leaving. My heart ached for you, because I knew I had just what you been asking for all year.
You are not alone, first world believers are all alike, because they have been taught wrong. They were never told that I always show up, when man's show is over. If you have a program, I will show up when it is finished. Some times I enjoy surprising everyone by being there, before anyone arrives. If there are two or three sensitive people that attend the meeting, I will stay around and wait for them to notice Me. If they do and are bold enough to obey Me, I will take charge of the meeting, but only if I am invited. Most of the time I am rushed out the door, when someone reaches for the program, or looks at their watch.
You must know by now, that I am not into the traditions of men, so why do leaders tell their followers to keep expecting me to show up at their functions. The only thing I want to do to flesh is kill it, so if I showed up at these functions, I would ruin the show, just like I messed up the temple that day.
Be of good cheer, I have enacted a new plan, you could say, I am doing a new thing. I am turning up the desperate level in thousands of 1st world believers. The thirst and hunger level is now going to a do or die intensity.
Their pursuit will be so hot, that meals and sleep will be set aside with out being mentioned. Only the necessities of life will tear them away from seeking My face. Their desire to leave this present world will be so strong that they will cry, Lord Jesus come quickly. This cry will not be out of fear or to escape distress, but out of a yearning of the Spirit to be fully in My presence.
They will speak in tongues for hours because their native language will leave them speechless. The groanings in the spirit will seem endless. No eye, nor heart, has experienced what I am now beginning to do. As My kingdom comes on the earth, be ready for massive changes to occur in your inner man. This transformation is radical and is a must for all manifest sons of God that are to be revealed. Each of these will be fit for the kingdom of God.
Psalm 53:2 (KJV)
God looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, that did seek God.
Psalm 37:7 (KJV)
Rest in the Lord , and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
James 1:4 (KJV)
But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
Psalm 33:18 (AMP)
Behold, the Lord''s eye is upon those who fear Him who revere and worship Him with awe, who wait for Him and hope in His mercy and loving-kindness,
Psalm 37:9 (KJV)
For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord , they shall inherit the earth.
Isaiah 40:31 (AMP)
But those who wait for the Lord who expect, look for, and hope in Him shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up close to God as eagles mount up to the sun; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.
Psalm 119:2 (AMP)
Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are they who keep His testimonies, and who seek, inquire for and of Him and crave Him with the whole heart.
Matthew 7:8 (AMP)
For everyone who keeps on asking receives; and he who keeps on seeking finds; and to him who keeps on knocking, the door will be opened.
Matthew 13:44 (AMP)
The kingdom of heaven is like something precious buried in a field, which a man found and hid again; then in his joy he goes and sells all he has and buys that field.
Matthew 23:1-2,4-8 (KJV)
Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples, [2] Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: [4] For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. [5] But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, [6] And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, [7] And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. [8] But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
Matthew 23:1 (AMP)
THEN JESUS said to the multitudes and to His disciples,
Mark 7:9 (KJV)
And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
Joel 2:28-29 (KJV)
And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions: [29] And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
Romans 8:19,22-23,26-31 (AMP)
For even the whole creation (all nature) waits expectantly and longs earnestly for God''s sons to be made known waits for the revealing, the disclosing of their sonship. [22] We know that the whole creation of irrational creatures has been moaning together in the pains of labor until now. [23] And not only the creation, but we ourselves too, who have and enjoy the firstfruits of the Holy Spirit a foretaste of the blissful things to come groan inwardly as we wait for the redemption of our bodies from sensuality and the grave, which will reveal our adoption (our manifestation as God''s sons). [26] So too the Holy Spirit comes to our aid and bears us up in our weakness; for we do not know what prayer to offer nor how to offer it worthily as we ought, but the Spirit Himself goes to meet our supplication and pleads in our behalf with unspeakable yearnings and groanings too deep for utterance.

[30] And those whom He thus foreordained, He also called; and those whom He called, He also justified (acquitted, made righteous, putting them into right standing with Himself). And those whom He justified, He also glorified raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state of being. [31] What then shall we say to all this? If God is for us, who can be against us? Who can be our foe, if God is on our side?

DEFLATION IS HERE
DEFLATION IS HERE
All My try believers are beginning to experience a flatness in their experience with Me. I am creating a spiritual vacuum in their hearts, in order to stir up a deeper passion for Me, deeper than they have ever known before.
This passion will cause a spiritual restlessness among the sheep. Sheep will begin to demand more of their shepherds, and if the shepherds do not move them to higher ground a mass exodus will occur. This exodus will not be in rebellion but in brokenness. This exodus will not be orchestrated by a man but by Me.
Shepherds who refuse to wait on Me and wait for Me will be left with buildings totally void of My presence. Spiritual death will fill the void. The time has come for My army to be formed and for soldiers to take their positions. Hype will now be exposed as hype and loose it's appeal. Tickets will no longer be sold to those with this new vacuum.
Sheep and soldier will be synonymous as they move into a new glory. The cloud by day and fire by night will again appear in the spirit for all to follow. Those in leadership that do not recognize the cloud and fire will be so out of step that they will be unable to lead passionate spirit filled people.
This stirring is all Me and none of man's doing. A great hunger in My people has moved me do this new thing. I will not leave them fatherless, as orphans, I am purifying their hearts and dwelling among them. They will throw away their time pieces, for entire days in My presence will not satisfy their hunger. Waste baskets will be filled with wadded up programs as people demand more of me.
My presence will create the supernatural that will draw multitudes to see My glory. Gross darkness will be in places where I once moved, that are now overseen by unwilling leaders. Do not be satisfied with a vacuum or you will not see My kingdom. Press into Me lay aside all agendas and everything that robs time from Me.
I am deflating all man made hype and now nothing will satisfy the longing of your soul but My presence, if you are Mine. What you are seeing in the natural is taking place in the spiritual. People rising up and demanding to be led properly, the exodus has begun. The hungriest among you will lead.
Ezekiel 34:1-31 (AMP)
AND THE word of the Lord came to me, saying, [2] Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them, even to the spiritual shepherds, Thus says the Lord God: Woe to the spiritual shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the sheep? [3] You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you kill the fatlings, but you do not feed the sheep. [4] The diseased and weak you have not strengthened, the sick you have not healed, the hurt and crippled you have not bandaged, those gone astray you have not brought back, the lost you have not sought to find, but with force and hardhearted harshness you have ruled them. [5] And they were scattered because there was no shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild beasts of the field. [6] My sheep wandered through all the mountains and upon every high hill; yes, My sheep were scattered upon all the face of the earth and no one searched or sought for them. [7] Therefore, you spiritual shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: [8] As I live, says the Lord God, surely because My sheep became a prey, and My sheep became food for every beast of the field because there was no shepherd--neither did My shepherds search for My sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves and fed not My sheep-- [9] Therefore, O you spiritual shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: [10] Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will require My sheep at their hand and cause them to cease feeding the sheep, neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more. I will rescue My sheep from their mouths, that they may not be food for them. [11] For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I, I Myself, will search for My sheep and will seek them out. [12] As a shepherd seeks out his sheep in the day that he is among his flock that are scattered, so will I seek out My sheep; and I will rescue them out of all places where they have been scattered in the day of clouds and thick darkness. [13] And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and will bring them to their own land; and I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country. [14] I will feed them with good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be; there shall they lie down in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel. [15] I will feed My sheep and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord God. [16] I will seek that which was lost and bring back that which has strayed, and I will bandage the hurt and the crippled and will strengthen the weak and the sick, but I will destroy the fat and the strong who have become hardhearted and perverse; I will feed them with judgment and punishment. [17] And as for you, O My flock, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, between the rams and the great he-goats the malicious and the tyrants of the pasture. [18] Is it too little for you that you feed on the best pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the rest of your pasture? And to have drunk of the waters clarified by subsiding, but you must foul the rest of the water with your feet? [19] And My flock, must they feed on what your feet have trodden and drink what your feet have fouled? [20] Therefore thus says the Lord God to them: Behold, I, I Myself, will judge between fat sheep and impoverished sheep, or fat goats and lean goats. [21] Because you push with side and with shoulder and thrust with your horns all those that have become weak and diseased, till you have scattered them abroad, [22] Therefore will I rescue My flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep. [23] And I will raise up over them one Shepherd and He shall feed them, even My Servant David; He shall feed them and He shall be their Shepherd. [24] And I the Lord will be their God and My Servant David a Prince among them; I the Lord have spoken it. [25] And I will confirm with them a covenant of peace and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land, and My people shall dwell safely in the wilderness, desert, or pastureland and sleep confidently in the woods. [26] And I will make them and the places round about My hill a blessing, and I will cause the showers to come down in their season; there shall be showers of blessing of good insured by God''s favor. [27] And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit and the earth shall yield its increase; and My people shall be secure in their land, and they shall be confident and know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bars of their yoke and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made slaves of them. [28] And they shall no more be a prey to the nations, nor shall the beasts of the earth devour them, but they shall dwell safely and none shall make them afraid in the day of the Messiah''s reign [29] And I will raise up for them a planting of crops for renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land nor bear the reproach of the nations any longer. [30] Then shall they know positively that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the house of Israel, are My people, says the Lord God, [31] And that you, My sheep, the sheep of My pasture, are only men and I am your God, says the Lord God.

They will throw away their time pieces, for entire days in My presence will not satisfy their hunger. Waste baskets will be filled with wadded up programs as people demand more of me.
My presence will create the supernatural that will draw multitudes to see My glory. Gross darkness will be in places where I once moved, that are now overseen by unwilling leaders. Do not be satisfied with a vacuum or you will not see My kingdom. Press into Me lay aside all agendas and everything that robs time from Me.
I am deflating all man made hype and now nothing will satisfy the longing of your soul but My presence, if you are Mine. What you are seeing in the natural is taking place in the spiritual. People rising up and demanding to be led properly, the exodus has begun. The hungriest among you will lead.
Ezekiel 34:1-31 (AMP)
AND THE word of the Lord came to me, saying, [2] Son of man, prophesy against the shepherds of Israel; prophesy and say to them, even to the spiritual shepherds, Thus says the Lord God: Woe to the spiritual shepherds of Israel who feed themselves! Should not the shepherds feed the sheep? [3] You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you kill the fatlings, but you do not feed the sheep. [4] The diseased and weak you have not strengthened, the sick you have not healed, the hurt and crippled you have not bandaged, those gone astray you have not brought back, the lost you have not sought to find, but with force and hardhearted harshness you have ruled them. [5] And they were scattered because there was no shepherd, and when they were scattered they became food for all the wild beasts of the field. [6] My sheep wandered through all the mountains and upon every high hill; yes, My sheep were scattered upon all the face of the earth and no one searched or sought for them. [7] Therefore, you spiritual shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: [8] As I live, says the Lord God, surely because My sheep became a prey, and My sheep became food for every beast of the field because there was no shepherd--neither did My shepherds search for My sheep, but the shepherds fed themselves and fed not My sheep-- [9] Therefore, O you spiritual shepherds, hear the word of the Lord: [10] Thus says the Lord God: Behold, I am against the shepherds, and I will require My sheep at their hand and cause them to cease feeding the sheep, neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more. I will rescue My sheep from their mouths, that they may not be food for them. [11] For thus says the Lord God: Behold, I, I Myself, will search for My sheep and will seek them out. [12] As a shepherd seeks out his sheep in the day that he is among his flock that are scattered, so will I seek out My sheep; and I will rescue them out of all places where they have been scattered in the day of clouds and thick darkness. [13] And I will bring them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries and will bring them to their own land; and I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, by the watercourses, and in all the inhabited places of the country. [14] I will feed them with good pasture, and upon the high mountains of Israel shall their fold be; there shall they lie down in a good fold, and in a fat pasture shall they feed upon the mountains of Israel. [15] I will feed My sheep and I will cause them to lie down, says the Lord God. [16] I will seek that which was lost and bring back that which has strayed, and I will bandage the hurt and the crippled and will strengthen the weak and the sick, but I will destroy the fat and the strong who have become hardhearted and perverse; I will feed them with judgment and punishment. [17] And as for you, O My flock, thus says the Lord God: Behold, I judge between sheep and sheep, between the rams and the great he-goats the malicious and the tyrants of the pasture. [18] Is it too little for you that you feed on the best pasture, but you must tread down with your feet the rest of your pasture? And to have drunk of the waters clarified by subsiding, but you must foul the rest of the water with your feet? [19] And My flock, must they feed on what your feet have trodden and drink what your feet have fouled? [20] Therefore thus says the Lord God to them: Behold, I, I Myself, will judge between fat sheep and impoverished sheep, or fat goats and lean goats. [21] Because you push with side and with shoulder and thrust with your horns all those that have become weak and diseased, till you have scattered them abroad, [22] Therefore will I rescue My flock, and they shall no more be a prey; and I will judge between sheep and sheep. [23] And I will raise up over them one Shepherd and He shall feed them, even My Servant David; He shall feed them and He shall be their Shepherd. [24] And I the Lord will be their God and My Servant David a Prince among them; I the Lord have spoken it. [25] And I will confirm with them a covenant of peace and will cause the evil beasts to cease out of the land, and My people shall dwell safely in the wilderness, desert, or pastureland and sleep confidently in the woods. [26] And I will make them and the places round about My hill a blessing, and I will cause the showers to come down in their season; there shall be showers of blessing of good insured by God''s favor. [27] And the tree of the field shall yield its fruit and the earth shall yield its increase; and My people shall be secure in their land, and they shall be confident and know (understand and realize) that I am the Lord, when I have broken the bars of their yoke and have delivered them out of the hand of those who made slaves of them. [28] And they shall no more be a prey to the nations, nor shall the beasts of the earth devour them, but they shall dwell safely and none shall make them afraid in the day of the Messiah''s reign [29] And I will raise up for them a planting of crops for renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land nor bear the reproach of the nations any longer. [30] Then shall they know positively that I, the Lord their God, am with them and that they, the house of Israel, are My people, says the Lord God, [31] And that you, My sheep, the sheep of My pasture, are only men and I am your God, says the Lord God.
