WATER WALKING
There is nothing about My kingdom that is natural. A kingdom person is always out of the boat, walking on the water. The longer you walk in the kingdom the farther away from the boat you get. It is a life many desire but few will experience because their desire never reaches the level on passion.
Passion is the necessary ingredient to take you beyond the fear factor. Fear is the single factor that will keep you in the boat. No one can talk you into passion. You are either passionate about Me our your not. Desire is the first step to passion, but desire must be coupled with faith. When desire and faith and love are mingled it births passion.
You cannot be passionate about a goal or an object, these can only bring you to a desire level. Passion requires a person as the object. Many say they are passionate about a goal, but what they really have is a strong desire that may or may not allow them to reach their goal.
When I am the am the object of your desire and you learn to love Me and you obey My commands, your faith will grow to a point of passion. When you are passionate about Me, nothing can stop you from getting out of the boat. However, always remember why you are out of the boat, because you see Me and are passionate about Me.
Age, gender, race, or status have no baring on passion. When you are passionate about Me nothing can keep you in the boat. However when you leave the safety of the boat you can never let your passion wain, because passion keeps you eyes fixed on Me. Eyes off Me means, eyes on water, which equates to sinking. Looking down at where you are, once you are on the water, will paralyze you, and fear will sink you to the bottom.
Remember this, you cannot walk on water without a passionate love for Me. Passion, means you do not want to continue living, if you can't have Me. This is the leaving all stage. It the obedience at all cost stage. It is the radical stage. It is the kingdom stage.
You must be in constant contact with Me to remain passionate about Me. At times you will be nervous and even a little afraid, but it will never reach the fear level as long as your eyes are fixed on Me. Those in the boat can only watch but never will enjoy the depth of relationship I have with water walkers. Stepping out of the boat tells all. Don't worry you won't be able to do it unless you are first passionate about Me.
Matthew 14:24-33 (AMP)
But the boat was by this time out on the sea, many furlongs a furlong is one-eighth of a mile distant from the land, beaten and tossed by the waves, for the wind was against them. [25] And in the fourth watch between 3:00--6:00 a.m. of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea. [26] And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified and said, It is a ghost! And they screamed out with fright. [27] But instantly He spoke to them, saying, Take courage! I AM! Stop being afraid! [28] And Peter answered Him, Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water. [29] He said, Come! So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water, and he came toward Jesus. [30] But when he perceived and felt the strong wind, he was frightened, and as he began to sink, he cried out, Lord, save me from death! [31] Instantly Jesus reached out His hand and caught and held him, saying to him, O you of little faith, why did you doubt? [32] And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. [33] And those in the boat knelt and worshiped Him, saying, Truly You are the Son of God!
Matthew 22:37 (KJV)
Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
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.

REAL FAITH HAS NO BACK UP PLAN
REAL FAITH HAS NO BACK UP PLAN
Every backup plan has three unspoken words preceding it, JUST IN CASE. This is the triple worded phrase, that reveals to Me, you have assumption, but not faith. True faith, when exercised, means if I don't make good on My promises, you die.
Faith is reaching way beyond yourself at My prompting, and leaving yourself completely in the open. Take a close look in My word, at all those who are considered full of faith. Their lives were always on the line. Observe the eastern christians, their lives are also are on the line with every step of obedience.
Western christianity has replaced faith with assumption. Assumption is based in head knowledge, it has no connection with faith except in appearance. Sinner and saint alike practice it. Words like, give it a shot, give it a try, long-shot, shot in the dark, take a chance, hope for the best, and I got nothing to loose, are all descriptive of assumption.
These statements are all connected to backup plans or cushions to fall on, in case things don't work out. This is a natural human action for anyone wanting to advance, but it is not faith.
Faith has a direct connection between you and Me. It is a clear unbroken line from My throne to your heart. The directions come from My throne carried by My holy Spirit to your spirit. Your spirit speaks and you either obey or disobey. Obeying is faith, disobedience or waiting until you have a backup plan is sin.
Faith moves at My word without question, then I move to complete the work. After I speak it's always your move. The faster you move the higher your faith level. Even if you make a mistake I honor your faith and will be there for you. It's your faith that will save you every time.
Hebrews 11:1-40 (AMP)
NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things we hope for, being the proof of things we do not see and the conviction of their reality faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses. [2] For by faith--trust and holy fervor born of faith the men of old had divine testimony borne to them and obtained a good report. [3] By faith we understand that the worlds during the successive ages were framed (fashioned, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose) by the word of God, so that what we see was not made out of things which are visible. [4] Prompted, actuated by faith Abel brought God a better and more acceptable sacrifice than Cain, because of which it was testified of him that he was righteous that he was upright and in right standing with God, and God bore witness by accepting and acknowledging his gifts. And though he died, yet through the incident he is still speaking. [5] Because of faith Enoch was caught up and transferred to heaven, so that he did not have a glimpse of death; and he was not found, because God had translated him. For even before he was taken to heaven, he received testimony still on record that he had pleased and been satisfactory to God. [6] But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must necessarily believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him out. [7] Prompted by faith Noah, being forewarned by God concerning events of which as yet there was no visible sign, took heed and diligently and reverently constructed and prepared an ark for the deliverance of his own family. By this his faith which relied on God he passed judgment and sentence on the world''s unbelief and became an heir and possessor of righteousness (that relation of being right into which God puts the person who has faith). [8] Urged on by faith Abraham, when he was called, obeyed and went forth to a place which he was destined to receive as an inheritance; and he went, although he did not know or trouble his mind about where he was to go. [9] Prompted by faith he dwelt as a temporary resident in the land which was designated in the promise of God, though he was like a stranger in a strange country, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, fellow heirs with him of the same promise. [10] For he was waiting expectantly and confidently looking forward to the city which has fixed and firm foundations, whose Architect and Builder is God. [11] Because of faith also Sarah herself received physical power to conceive a child, even when she was long past the age for it, because she considered God Who had given her the promise to be reliable and trustworthy and true to His word. [12] So from one man, though he was physically as good as dead, there have sprung descendants whose number is as the stars of heaven and as countless as the innumerable sands on the seashore. [13] These people all died controlled and sustained by their faith, but not having received the tangible fulfillment of God''s promises, only having seen it and greeted it from a great distance by faith, and all the while acknowledging and confessing that they were strangers and temporary residents and exiles upon the earth. [14] Now those people who talk as they did show plainly that they are in search of a fatherland (their own country). [15] If they had been thinking with homesick remembrance of that country from which they were emigrants, they would have found constant opportunity to return to it. [16] But the truth is that they were yearning for and aspiring to a better and more desirable country, that is, a heavenly one. For that reason God is not ashamed to be called their God even to be surnamed their God--the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, for He has prepared a city for them. [17] By faith Abraham, when he was put to the test while the testing of his faith was still in progress, had already brought Isaac for an offering; he who had gladly received and welcomed God''s promises was ready to sacrifice his only son, [18] Of whom it was said, Through Isaac shall your descendants be reckoned. [19] For he reasoned that God was able to raise him up even from among the dead. Indeed in the sense that Isaac was figuratively dead potentially sacrificed, he did actually receive him back from the dead. [20] With eyes of faith Isaac, looking far into the future, invoked blessings upon Jacob and Esau. [21] Prompted by faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph''s sons and bowed in prayer over the top of his staff. [22] Actuated by faith Joseph, when nearing the end of his life, referred to the promise of God for the departure of the Israelites out of Egypt and gave instructions concerning the burial of his own bones. [23] Prompted by faith Moses, after his birth, was kept concealed for three months by his parents, because they saw how comely the child was; and they were not overawed and terrified by the king''s decree. [24] Aroused by faith Moses, when he had grown to maturity and become great, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh''s daughter, [25] Because he preferred to share the oppression suffer the hardships and bear the shame of the people of God rather than to have the fleeting enjoyment of a sinful life. [26] He considered the contempt and abuse and shame borne for the Christ (the Messiah Who was to come) to be greater wealth than all the treasures of Egypt, for he looked forward and away to the reward (recompense). [27] Motivated by faith he left Egypt behind him, being unawed and undismayed by the wrath of the king; for he never flinched but held staunchly to his purpose and endured steadfastly as one who gazed on Him Who is invisible. [28] By faith (simple trust and confidence in God) he instituted and carried out the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood on the doorposts, so that the destroyer of the firstborn (the angel) might not touch those of the children of Israel. [29] Urged on by faith the people crossed the Red Sea as though on dry land, but when the Egyptians tried to do the same thing they were swallowed up by the sea. [30] Because of faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they had been encompassed for seven days by the Israelites. [31] Prompted by faith Rahab the prostitute was not destroyed along with those who refused to believe and obey, because she had received the spies in peace without enmity. [32] And what shall I say further? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets, [33] Who by the help of faith subdued kingdoms, administered justice, obtained promised blessings, closed the mouths of lions, [34] Extinguished the power of raging fire, escaped the devourings of the sword, out of frailty and weakness won strength and became stalwart, even mighty and resistless in battle, routing alien hosts. [35] Some women received again their dead by a resurrection. Others were tortured to death with clubs, refusing to accept release offered on the terms of denying their faith, so that they might be resurrected to a better life. I Kings 17:17-24; II Kings 4:25-37. [36] Others had to suffer the trial of mocking and scourging and even chains and imprisonment. [37] They were stoned to death; they were lured with tempting offers to renounce their faith; they were sawn asunder; they were slaughtered by the sword; while they were alive they had to go about wrapped in the skins of sheep and goats, utterly destitute, oppressed, cruelly treated-- [38] Men of whom the world was not worthy--roaming over the desolate places and the mountains, and living in caves and caverns and holes of the earth. [39] And all of these, though they won divine approval by means of their faith, did not receive the fulfillment of what was promised, [40] Because God had us in mind and had something better and greater in view for us, so that they these heroes and heroines of faith should not come to perfection apart from us before we could join them.
Matthew 9:29 (AMP)
Then He touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith and trust and reliance on the power invested in Me be it done to you;
Romans 1:8 (KJV)

BURNING ALL YOUR BRIDGES --- YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO BACKSLIDE
BURNING ALL YOUR BRIDGES --- YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO BACKSLIDE
Some people have signed up for a one way trip to Mars, because there isn't time to return. This is a foolish earthling decision, because it leads to uninhabitable territory. However it is the exact attitude that is required to make the journey into My kingdom. All or nothing, throw it all in, selling out, leaving all, and leap of faith are all phrases that describe what is required to enter the kingdom.
The difference between those who do it and those who don't are life and death. This is not a light thing, it is the most important decision of your whole life. It is the decision your were born for, asking Me to be your savior is the first step and the easy one, because I did the work for you. Now I ask the hard question , "will you follow Me"?
Without making the choice to burn all bridges, you cannot follow Me, because you are constantly looking back in your heart, and you are not fit. Counting the cost, means are you willing to give all you have, to buy the field that hides the treasure.
If you have not noticed the world is attempting to totally enslave you. You are no more than an expendable number to them, and your value is determined by what you can produce. When you no longer meet quota, you are thrown out with the trash. This is the spirit of antichrist, that has moved to the front of the ruling parties. Read My word it's all there.
Your faith and love level will determine if you can make this lifesaving decision or not. If you do not know My voice, then you won't. If you don't love Me with all your heart, then you won't. This is a heart decision that only you and you alone can make. I already know that only a few with make it, not because the most lack the ability, but because they lack faith in Me and love for Me.
Having bridges means you are lukewarm and you know My reaction to that. It's Me or the slave camp, you must choose. Do you have the faith and love is the question? Can you trust Me enough to step out on nothing at My command? Time is forcing your decision because the enemy is on schedule in his attempt to rule the earth, but will he rule you? Only in My kingdom will you be safe and free from his rule.
Luke 14:16-35 (AMP)
But Jesus said to him, A man was once giving a great supper and invited many; [17] And at the hour for the supper he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited, Come, for all is now ready. [18] But they all alike began to make excuses and to beg off. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of land, and I have to go out and see it; I beg you, have me excused. [19] And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to examine and put my approval on them; I beg you, have me excused. [20] And another said, I have married a wife, and because of this I am unable to come. [21] So the servant came and reported these answers to his master. Then the master of the house said in wrath to his servant, Go quickly into the great streets and the small streets of the city and bring in here the poor and the disabled and the blind and the lame. [22] And the servant returning said, Sir, what you have commanded me to do has been done, and yet there is room. [23] Then the master said to the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges and urge and constrain them to yield and come in, so that my house may be filled. [24] For I tell you, not one of those who were invited shall taste my supper. [25] Now huge crowds were going along with Jesus, and He turned and said to them, [26] If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his own father and mother in the sense of indifference to or relative disregard for them in comparison with his attitude toward God and likewise his wife and children and brothers and sisters--yes and even his own life also--he cannot be My disciple. [27] Whoever does not persevere and carry his own cross and come after (follow) Me cannot be My disciple. [28] For which of you, wishing to build a farm building, does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see whether he has sufficient means to finish it? [29] Otherwise, when he has laid the foundation and is unable to complete the building, all who see it will begin to mock and jeer at him, [30] Saying, This man began to build and was not able (worth enough) to finish. [31] 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. [34] Salt is good an excellent thing, but if salt has lost its strength and has become saltless (insipid, flat), how shall its saltness be restored? [35] It is fit neither for the land nor for the manure heap; men throw it away. He who has ears to hear, let him listen and consider and comprehend by hearing!
Matthew 13:44-50 (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. [45] Again the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a dealer in search of fine and precious pearls, [46] Who, on finding a single pearl of great price, went and sold all he had and bought it. [47] Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet which was cast into the sea and gathered in fish of every sort. [48] When it was full, men dragged it up on the beach, and sat down and sorted out the good fish into baskets, but the worthless ones they threw away. [49] So it will be at the close and consummation of the age. The angels will go forth and separate the wicked from the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with God) [50] And cast them the wicked into the furnace of fire; there will be weeping and wailing and grinding of teeth.

[25] Now huge crowds were going along with Jesus, and He turned and said to them, [26] If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his own father and mother in the sense of indifference to or relative disregard for them in comparison with his attitude toward God and likewise his wife and children and brothers and sisters--yes and even his own life also--he cannot be My disciple. [27] Whoever does not persevere and carry his own cross and come after (follow) Me cannot be My disciple. [28] For which of you, wishing to build a farm building, does not first sit down and calculate the cost to see whether he has sufficient means to finish it? [29] Otherwise, when he has laid the foundation and is unable to complete the building, all who see it will begin to mock and jeer at him, [30] Saying, This man began to build and was not able (worth enough) to finish. [31] 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. [34] Salt is good an excellent thing, but if salt has lost its strength and has become saltless (insipid, flat), how shall its saltness be restored? [35] It is fit neither for the land nor for the manure heap; men throw it away. He who has ears to hear, let him listen and consider and comprehend by hearing!
Matthew 13:44-50 (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. [45] Again the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a dealer in search of fine and precious pearls, [46] Who, on finding a single pearl of great price, went and sold all he had and bought it. [47] Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a dragnet which was cast into the sea and gathered in fish of every sort. [48] When it was full, men dragged it up on the beach, and sat down and sorted out the good fish into baskets, but the worthless ones they threw away. [49] So it will be at the close and consummation of the age. The angels will go forth and separate the wicked from the righteous (those who are upright and in right standing with God) [50] And cast them the wicked into the furnace of fire; there will be weeping and wailing and grinding of teeth.

KINGDOM OBEDIENCE
KINGDOM OBEDIENCE
I originally created you with unlimited abilities for you were created in the image of perfection, My image. Natural was all supernatural, life on earth was effortless and work was like a constant vacation. You have never lived until you experienced the absence of sin. If you could comprehend what it would be like to use 100% of your brain power, instead of the less than 10% that sin reduced it to. If you could understand what it was like to not know the word, pain, because their was no such thing. What is sickness? what is death?
You lost it all with disobedience and obedience will bring it back. My word is a roadmap back to your original state. Back to health, peace, joy, wisdom, and prosperity. Each command is a guidepost that leads to the supernatural lifestyle of the Kingdom. Love and obedience are twins and will keep you moving in the direction of the kingdom. You cannot love Me and disobey Me.
Kingdom love is not a feeling it is action. If you love Me show Me. If you lie, cheat, steal, commit adultery, hate, or serve mammon do not be deceived, you do not love Me. You may have a feeling while worship music is playing, but it is not love. Stay on the path of obedience by obeying every prompting of My Holy Spirit and you will know Kingdom life.
The word continually works to restore you back to your original state by freeing you from the curse of sin and death. Disobedience will keep you under the curse no matter how many church services you attend. If you love Me keep My commandments and live supernaturally.
John 15:10 (AMP)
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.
John 14:15 (AMP)
If you really love Me, you will keep (obey) My commands.
John 14:21 (AMP)
The person who has My commands and keeps them is the one who really loves Me; and whoever really loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I too will love him and will show (reveal, manifest) Myself to him. I will let Myself be clearly seen by him and make Myself real to him.
Deuteronomy 11:7-22,25-28 (AMP)
For your eyes have seen all the great work of the Lord which He did. [8] Therefore you shall keep all the commandments which I command you today, that you may be strong and go in and possess the land which you go across the Jordan to possess, [9] And that you may live long in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give to them and to their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey. [10] For the land which you go in to possess is not like the land of Egypt, from which you came out, where you sowed your seed and watered it with your foot laboriously as in a garden of vegetables. [11] But the land which you enter to possess is a land of hills and valleys which drinks water of the rain of the heavens, [12] A land for which the Lord your God cares; the eyes of the Lord your God are always upon it from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. [13] And if you will diligently heed My commandments which I command you this day--to love the Lord your God and to serve Him with all your mind and heart and with your entire being-- [14] I will give the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil. [15] And I will give grass in your fields for your cattle, that you may eat and be full. [16] Take heed to yourselves, lest your minds and hearts be deceived and you turn aside and serve other gods and worship them, [17] And the Lord''s anger be kindled against you, and He shut up the heavens so that there will be no rain and the land will not yield its fruit, and you perish quickly off the good land which the Lord gives you. [18] Therefore you shall lay up these My words in your minds and hearts and in your entire being, and bind them for a sign upon your hands and as forehead bands between your eyes. [19] And you shall teach them to your children, speaking of them when you sit in your house and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you rise up. [20] And you shall write them upon the doorposts of your house and on your gates, [21] That your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, as long as the heavens are above the earth. [22] For if you diligently keep all this commandment which I command you to do, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him-- [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. [26] Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse-- [27] The blessing if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you this day; [28] And the curse if you will not obey the commandments of the Lord your God, but turn aside from the way which I command you this day to go after other gods, which you have not known.

INTEGRITY
INTEGRITY
The inner quality to do right in all situations. Integrity is a work on My spirit that come through without fanfare. It is a quiet giant pillar in the center of a kingdom person. I am the source of integrity and without it you cannot trust. Integrity is the center core of trust.
Real integrity does not show up until negative pressure is implied. From the moment you are born again My Spirit works to establish integrity in your soul man. The temptations that are allowed to come in your life are not Me playing a game with you, it's My Spirit proving your integrity level as My word changes your heart.
It is My integrity that you trust in your worst situations, when it looks like I have forgotten you and everything is about to fall, it's My integrity that you are counting on. When a person has integrity no matter what is said against them, your knowledge of their integrity causes you to stand with them.
I will never leave you or forsake you is a statement of unconditional love but it must be based in integrity. The lack of integrity results in shock and disbelief that all of love words had no foundation. All the wonderful things said to you were meaningless, because they were based in emotion not integrity. Righteousness is integrity and yours is being tested everyday of your life.
Stand firm in what I have established and know that I will bring to pass all that I have promised because I am a righteous God and the God of integrity. Let me continue to build My integrity in you that you may be established to do every good work, unmovable and a pillar in My kingdom.
Proverbs 19:1 (AMP)
BETTER IS a poor man who walks in his integrity than a rich man who is perverse in his speech and is a self-confident fool.
Psalm 26:8-12 (KJV)
Lord , I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honour dwelleth. [9] Gather not my soul with sinners, nor my life with bloody men: [10] In whose hands is mischief, and their right hand is full of bribes. [11] But as for me, I will walk in mine integrity: redeem me, and be merciful unto me. [12] My foot standeth in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the Lord .
Psalm 25:20-21 (AMP)
O keep me, Lord, and deliver me; let me not be ashamed or disappointed, for my trust and my refuge are in You. [21] Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for and expect You.
Psalm 7:8 (AMP)
The Lord judges the people; judge me, O Lord, and do me justice according to my righteousness my rightness, justice, and right standing with You and according to the integrity that is in me.
Genesis 18:25 (AMP)
Far be it from You to do such a thing--to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous fare as do the wicked! Far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth execute judgment and do righteously?
Psalm 67:4 (KJV)
O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.
Ephesians 6:14 (AMP)
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,

ARE YOU COMFORTABLE WITH LOVE?
ARE YOU COMFORTABLE WITH LOVE?
After a thousand, "I love you's", followed a thousand disappointments, the words have no more meaning. The human heart becomes numb to hopeful words followed by meaningless actions, which are based on a conditional response. The heart becomes self protecting as it goes into a hard shell cocoon, to survive.
I am the source of unconditional love, but I need people who are comfortable with love, to put a face on it. Many are not able to receive love, because the shell prevents it. The only thing they have known is hurtful disillusion. They even refrain from using the word love, because it has become a completely nondescript word.
Everything from poor parental examples of love to phony religious people, have established a seeming lifetime of cocoon living, but I am touched with the feelings of your hidden heart. I still see that tiny sliver of hope you have struggled to keep alive. My ears have heard it's cry for something real. I have come with examples of My unconditional love, to break you out of that cocoon. I am touching you over and over with My love, and you are starting touch back.
You are questioning, "is this really true ?" Does somebody really love Me? Without conditions!!! yes, I do, and I am putting a face on love, and I will use them to turn your life around. As soon as you are comfortable with love, you will be able to receive enough to give away.
The amazing thing about My love is that you will fall in love with love itself, because of the comfort that surrounds it. I am love and those who possess My love become more and more lovable as you become comfortable with love. Love changes everything, because it never fails. For the first time you will be able to really trust, as this love continues to be poured out. You will clearly recognize the black and white difference between man's phony love and My true love.
In the center of My love there is no fear. The problem has been, a short supply of those who are willing to stand in the gap, and give their lives for you. As My church rises from obscurity, those that have been through the fire will be sent out, their 40 years on the back side of the desert is over and I am beginning to introduce them as the manifest sons of God. Years of time and experience with Me have conformed them to My image. As you embrace them you embrace Me and you are now able to receive unconditional love, which you begin to give away.
As you give out, your giftings will be exercised and multiplied. You will leave all that was important to you before, just to be a channel of this love. My love is all consuming and will carry you into eternity if you continue to abide in it, and give it away.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13 (AMP)
IF I can speak in the tongues of men and even of angels, but have not love (that reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion such as is inspired by God''s love for and in us), I am only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. [2] And if I have prophetic powers (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), and understand all the secret truths and mysteries and possess all knowledge, and if I have sufficient faith so that I can remove mountains, but have not love (God''s love in me) I am nothing (a useless nobody). [3] Even if I dole out all that I have to the poor in providing food, and if I surrender my body to be burned or in order that I may glory, but have not love (God''s love in me), I gain nothing. [4] Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. [5] It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God''s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it it pays no attention to a suffered wrong. [6] It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. [7] Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything without weakening. [8] Love never fails never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. As for prophecy (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away it will lose its value and be superseded by truth. [9] For our knowledge is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect), and our prophecy (our teaching) is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect). [10] But when the complete and perfect (total) comes, the incomplete and imperfect will vanish away (become antiquated, void, and superseded). [11] When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; now that I have become a man, I am done with childish ways and have put them aside. [12] For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a dim (blurred) reflection of reality as in a riddle or enigma, but then when perfection comes we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in part (imperfectly), but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood by God. [13] And so faith, hope, love abide faith--conviction and belief respecting man''s relation to God and divine things; hope--joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love--true affection for God and man, growing out of God''s love for and in us, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
John 15:12-14 (AMP)
This is My commandment: that you love one another just as I have loved you. [13] No one has greater love no one has shown stronger affection than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends. [14] You are My friends if you keep on doing the things which I command you to do.
Luke 10:5-6,10-12 (AMP)
Whatever house you enter, first say, Peace be to this household! Freedom from all the distresses that result from sin be with this family. [6] And if anyone worthy of peace and blessedness is there, the peace and blessedness you wish shall come upon him; but if not, it shall come back to you. [10] But whenever you go into a town and they do not receive and accept and welcome you, go out into its streets and say, [11] Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we are wiping off against you; yet know and understand this: the kingdom of God has come near you. [12] I tell you, it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that town.

I am the source of unconditional love, but I need people who are comfortable with love, to put a face on it. Many are not able to receive love, because the shell prevents it. The only thing they have known is hurtful disillusion. They even refrain from using the word love, because it has become a completely nondescript word.
Everything from poor parental examples of love to phony religious people, have established a seeming lifetime of cocoon living, but I am touched with the feelings of your hidden heart. I still see that tiny sliver of hope you have struggled to keep alive. My ears have heard it's cry for something real. I have come with examples of My unconditional love, to break you out of that cocoon. I am touching you over and over with My love, and you are starting touch back.
You are questioning, "is this really true ?" Does somebody really love Me? Without conditions!!! yes, I do, and I am putting a face on love, and I will use them to turn your life around. As soon as you are comfortable with love, you will be able to receive enough to give away.
The amazing thing about My love is that you will fall in love with love itself, because of the comfort that surrounds it. I am love and those who possess My love become more and more lovable as you become comfortable with love. Love changes everything, because it never fails. For the first time you will be able to really trust, as this love continues to be poured out. You will clearly recognize the black and white difference between man's phony love and My true love.
In the center of My love there is no fear. The problem has been, a short supply of those who are willing to stand in the gap, and give their lives for you. As My church rises from obscurity, those that have been through the fire will be sent out, their 40 years on the back side of the desert is over and I am beginning to introduce them as the manifest sons of God. Years of time and experience with Me have conformed them to My image. As you embrace them you embrace Me and you are now able to receive unconditional love, which you begin to give away.
As you give out, your giftings will be exercised and multiplied. You will leave all that was important to you before, just to be a channel of this love. My love is all consuming and will carry you into eternity if you continue to abide in it, and give it away.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13 (AMP)
IF I can speak in the tongues of men and even of angels, but have not love (that reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion such as is inspired by God''s love for and in us), I am only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. [2] And if I have prophetic powers (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), and understand all the secret truths and mysteries and possess all knowledge, and if I have sufficient faith so that I can remove mountains, but have not love (God''s love in me) I am nothing (a useless nobody). [3] Even if I dole out all that I have to the poor in providing food, and if I surrender my body to be burned or in order that I may glory, but have not love (God''s love in me), I gain nothing. [4] Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. [5] It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God''s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it it pays no attention to a suffered wrong. [6] It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. [7] Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything without weakening. [8] Love never fails never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. As for prophecy (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away it will lose its value and be superseded by truth. [9] For our knowledge is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect), and our prophecy (our teaching) is fragmentary (incomplete and imperfect). [10] But when the complete and perfect (total) comes, the incomplete and imperfect will vanish away (become antiquated, void, and superseded). [11] When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; now that I have become a man, I am done with childish ways and have put them aside. [12] For now we are looking in a mirror that gives only a dim (blurred) reflection of reality as in a riddle or enigma, but then when perfection comes we shall see in reality and face to face! Now I know in part (imperfectly), but then I shall know and understand fully and clearly, even in the same manner as I have been fully and clearly known and understood by God. [13] And so faith, hope, love abide faith--conviction and belief respecting man''s relation to God and divine things; hope--joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love--true affection for God and man, growing out of God''s love for and in us, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
John 15:12-14 (AMP)
This is My commandment: that you love one another just as I have loved you. [13] No one has greater love no one has shown stronger affection than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends. [14] You are My friends if you keep on doing the things which I command you to do.
Luke 10:5-6,10-12 (AMP)
Whatever house you enter, first say, Peace be to this household! Freedom from all the distresses that result from sin be with this family. [6] And if anyone worthy of peace and blessedness is there, the peace and blessedness you wish shall come upon him; but if not, it shall come back to you. [10] But whenever you go into a town and they do not receive and accept and welcome you, go out into its streets and say, [11] Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we are wiping off against you; yet know and understand this: the kingdom of God has come near you. [12] I tell you, it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that town.
After a thousand, "I love you's", followed a thousand disappointments, the words have no more meaning. The human heart becomes numb to hopeful words followed by meaningless actions, which are based on a conditional response.

DEEPER IN ENEMY TERRITORY
DEEPER IN ENEMY TERRITORY
The more of My power you carry the farther into enemy territory I will take you. You are being trained to use spiritual weapons with an accuracy that no one will deny. Discerning the intents of mens hearts will help you set many prisoners free. Your path is becoming extremely narrow now and still narrower as you get closer to Me.
This path makes you different, what you used to read, you can no longer read. Your friends are going to change along with your thought patterns. The reason is wrapped up in the word, accuracy. You are entering a level of kingdom power that requires high discipline and a pure heart. To maintain a pure heart you must abide in Me and I in you. The words I speak to you must not be misunderstood, because many lives including yours will depend on it.
From now on everything from friends, music, reading material and even entertainment must feed your spirit man. You must starve the flesh man at every juncture. As you walk this narrow road you will be vulnerable to enemy attack, but with you spiritual weapons training you will easily defeat the enemy. You will quickly see the need for spirit power when you enter a battle zone. With out my power fear will paralyze you during enemy attack.
At times you will be so far out on a limb that your focus will be completely on Me. to guarantee your victory. Do not play with sin it will be your end. Stay in unity with those I have trained to do battle and you will put armies to flight. I am about to shake nations, so get ready to stand in calm firmness as those around you begin to panic.
There are great and terrible things about to happen, great for those who walk in My power, but terrible for those who don't. The wealth of the wicked is being released to those who possess My power. It will be spent as fast as it comes in. You will not desire any of it for yourself, for money cannot buy what you have. An abundance of Love, joy and peace in the Holy Ghost.
You will be amazed at the places My love will take you. In a flash, like the wind, you will be shifted from place to place. When you arrive, you will know what your mission is. I am arranging favor in high places, that closed doors open up to you, doors that were impossible before. Wait on Me, wait on Me and wait on Me again. I am the source of your power, and you will be totally dependent on Me. I have saved you for this time, now give Me all you have, that My kingdom may come and My will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Luke 10:2-12 (AMP)
And He said to them, The harvest indeed is abundant there is much ripe grain, but the farmhands are few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. [3] Go your way; behold, I send you out like lambs into the midst of wolves. [4] Carry no purse, no provisions bag, no change of sandals; refrain from retarding your journey by saluting and wishing anyone well along the way. [5] Whatever house you enter, first say, Peace be to this household! Freedom from all the distresses that result from sin be with this family. [6] And if anyone worthy of peace and blessedness is there, the peace and blessedness you wish shall come upon him; but if not, it shall come back to you. [7] And stay on in the same house, eating and drinking what they provide, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not keep moving from house to house. [8] Whenever you go into a town and they receive and accept and welcome you, eat what is set before you; [9] And heal the sick in it and say to them, The kingdom of God has come close to you. [10] But whenever you go into a town and they do not receive and accept and welcome you, go out into its streets and say, [11] Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we are wiping off against you; yet know and understand this: the kingdom of God has come near you. [12] I tell you, it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that town.
2 Corinthians 6:1-18 (AMP)
LABORING TOGETHER as God''s fellow workers with Him then, we beg of you not to receive the grace of God in vain that merciful kindness by which God exerts His holy influence on souls and turns them to Christ, keeping and strengthening them--do not receive it to no purpose. [2] For He says, In the time of favor (of an assured welcome) I have listened to and heeded your call, and I have helped you on the day of deliverance (the day of salvation). Behold, now is truly the time for a gracious welcome and acceptance of you from God; behold, now is the day of salvation! [3] We put no obstruction in anybody''s way we give no offense in anything, so that no fault may be found and our ministry blamed and discredited. [4] But we commend ourselves in every way as true servants of God: through great endurance, in tribulation and suffering, in hardships and privations, in sore straits and calamities, [5] In beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless watching, hunger; [6] By innocence and purity, knowledge and spiritual insight, longsuffering and patience, kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in unfeigned love; [7] By speaking the word of truth, in the power of God, with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand to attack and for the left hand to defend; [8] Amid honor and dishonor; in defaming and evil report and in praise and good report. We are branded as deceivers (impostors), and yet vindicated as truthful and honest. [9] We are treated as unknown and ignored by the world, and yet we are well-known and recognized by God and His people; as dying, and yet here we are alive; as chastened by suffering and yet not killed; [10] As grieved and mourning, yet we are always rejoicing; as poor ourselves, yet bestowing riches on many; as having nothing, and yet in reality possessing all things. [11] Our mouth is open to you, Corinthians we are hiding nothing, keeping nothing back, and our heart is expanded wide for you! [12] There is no lack of room for you in our hearts, but you lack room in your own affections for us. [13] By way of return then, do this for me--I speak as to children--open wide your hearts also to us. [14] Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers do not make mismated alliances with them or come under a different yoke with them, inconsistent with your faith. For what partnership have right living and right standing with God with iniquity and lawlessness? Or how can light have fellowship with darkness? [15] What harmony can there be between Christ and Belial the devil? Or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever? [16] What agreement can there be between a temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in and with and among them and will walk in and with and among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. [17] So, come out from among unbelievers, and separate (sever) yourselves from them, says the Lord, and touch not any unclean thing; then I will receive you kindly and treat you with favor, [18] And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.
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.
Revelation 3:7-8 (KJV)
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; [8] I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
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.
Proverbs 13:22 (AMP)
A good man leaves an inheritance of moral stability and goodness to his children''s children, and the wealth of the sinner finds its way eventually into the hands of the righteous, for whom it was laid up.

For with God nothing is ever impossible and no word from God shall be without power or impossible of fulfillment.

THE ENEMY WITHIN AND WITHOUT
THE ENEMY WITHIN AND WITHOUT
I have given My church the gifts of the Spirit to detect the activities of the enemy from with out. As long as these gifts are exercised regularly and not misused or neglected they will keep My church strong and growing. The western church for the most part has neglected or misused the gifts. They many time act foolishly, prophesying nice little complements of how I feel about someone, when I have not spoken a word.
Not knowing demons from flesh, they attempt to cast out flesh, when it only has to be mortified by a disciplined lifestyle. They pray for healing, when a spirit of infirmity has to be cast out. They pretend to give words of knowledge after they have previously investigated the situation, and already know naturally. They say they have a word of wisdom, when it's just common sense.
As a result of this foolishness many others have chosen to neglect the gifts all together. These have the knowledge of salvation, but deny the power behind it. Thus they are powerless to stop the deadly blows of the enemy. As a result the enemy has infiltrated the church to the point that a reprobate shepherd can marry two reprobates of the same sex, and call it Holy. What I destroyed by fire once, I will destroy again. I am the same God that destroyed Sodom and Gamorah, I have not changed. All those who tolerate this activity will suffer the same fate.
In My last day church, there can not be this gross misuse and disregard of My Spiritual gifts. I have also set godly women among you as helpmates, with a keen sense of approaching trouble. This sense is not based in fear, but in that of a Godly motherly protection. She need not know why or how, but she is able to pick out the enemy, before he is in striking distance. She is a mans radar, do not neglect her warnings or mis-use this gift, it will save your life and avoid pitfalls that delay My plan.
There are those that have infiltrated the worldly church and have been in strong position for years, in which case they may have damaged the local body beyond repair. Refusing to deny reprobates, openly condoning sin and every evil work, I have written Ichabod over their door posts. This is not My church, Antichrist heads this church and you are to leave, if you desire not to be burned, figuratively or literally, get out now.
My church is a glorious church without spot or wrinkle, a triumphant church that remains the head and not the tail until the end of time. Become that church and I will welcome you into the My kingdom.
1 Corinthians 12:1-31 (AMP)
NOW ABOUT the spiritual gifts (the special endowments of supernatural energy), brethren, I do not want you to be misinformed. [2] You know that when you were heathen, you were led off after idols that could not speak habitually as impulse directed and whenever the occasion might arise. [3] Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking under the power and influence of the Holy Spirit of God can ever say, Jesus be cursed! And no one can really say, Jesus is my Lord, except by and under the power and influence of the Holy Spirit. [4] Now there are distinctive varieties and distributions of endowments (gifts, extraordinary powers distinguishing certain Christians, due to the power of divine grace operating in their souls by the Holy Spirit) and they vary, but the Holy Spirit remains the same. [5] And there are distinctive varieties of service and ministration, but it is the same Lord Who is served. [6] And there are distinctive varieties of operation of working to accomplish things, but it is the same God Who inspires and energizes them all in all. [7] But to each one is given the manifestation of the Holy Spirit the evidence, the spiritual illumination of the Spirit for good and profit. [8] To one is given in and through the Holy Spirit the power to speak a message of wisdom, and to another the power to express a word of knowledge and understanding according to the same Holy Spirit; [9] To another wonder-working faith by the same Holy Spirit, to another the extraordinary powers of healing by the one Spirit; [10] To another the working of miracles, to another prophetic insight (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose); to another the ability to discern and distinguish between the utterances of true spirits and false ones, to another various kinds of unknown tongues, to another the ability to interpret such tongues. [11] All these gifts, achievements, abilities are inspired and brought to pass by one and the same Holy Spirit, Who apportions to each person individually exactly as He chooses. [12] For just as the body is a unity and yet has many parts, and all the parts, though many, form only one body, so it is with Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One). [13] For by means of the personal agency of one Holy Spirit we were all, whether Jews or Greeks, slaves or free, baptized and by baptism united together into one body, and all made to drink of one Holy Spirit. [14] For the body does not consist of one limb or organ but of many. [15] If the foot should say, Because I am not the hand, I do not belong to the body, would it be therefore not a part of the body? [16] If the ear should say, Because I am not the eye, I do not belong to the body, would it be therefore not a part of the body? [17] If the whole body were an eye, where would be the sense of hearing? If the whole body were an ear, where would be the sense of smell? [18] But as it is, God has placed and arranged the limbs and organs in the body, each particular one of them, just as He wished and saw fit and with the best adaptation. [19] But if the whole were all a single organ, where would the body be? [20] And now there are certainly many limbs and organs, but a single body. [21] And the eye is not able to say to the hand, I have no need of you, nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. [22] But instead, there is absolute necessity for the parts of the body that are considered the more weak. [23] And those parts of the body which we consider rather ignoble are the very parts which we invest with additional honor, and our unseemly parts and those unsuitable for exposure are treated with seemliness (modesty and decorum), [24] Which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so adjusted (mingled, harmonized, and subtly proportioned the parts of) the whole body, giving the greater honor and richer endowment to the inferior parts which lack apparent importance, [25] So that there should be no division or discord or lack of adaptation of the parts of the body to each other, but the members all alike should have a mutual interest in and care for one another. [26] And if one member suffers, all the parts share the suffering; if one member is honored, all the members share in the enjoyment of it. [27] Now you collectively are Christ''s body and individually you are members of it, each part severally and distinct each with his own place and function. [28] So God has appointed some in the church for His own use: first apostles (special messengers); second prophets (inspired preachers and expounders); third teachers; then wonder-workers; then those with ability to heal the sick; helpers; administrators; speakers in different (unknown) tongues. [29] Are all apostles (special messengers)? Are all prophets (inspired interpreters of the will and purposes of God)? Are all teachers? Do all have the power of performing miracles? [30] Do all possess extraordinary powers of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? [31] But earnestly desire and zealously cultivate the greatest and best gifts and graces (the higher gifts and the choicest graces). And yet I will show you a still more excellent way one that is better by far and the highest of them all--love.
Romans 1:18-32 (AMP)
For God''s holy wrath and indignation are revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who in their wickedness repress and hinder the truth and make it inoperative. [19] For that which is known about God is evident to them and made plain in their inner consciousness, because God Himself has shown it to them. [20] For ever since the creation of the world His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternal power and divinity, have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in and through the things that have been made (His handiworks). So men are without excuse altogether without any defense or justification, [21] Because when they knew and recognized Him as God, they did not honor and glorify Him as God or give Him thanks. But instead they became futile and godless in their thinking with vain imaginings, foolish reasoning, and stupid speculations and their senseless minds were darkened. [22] Claiming to be wise, they became fools professing to be smart, they made simpletons of themselves. [23] And by them the glory and majesty and excellence of the immortal God were exchanged for and represented by images, resembling mortal man and birds and beasts and reptiles. [24] Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their own hearts to sexual impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves abandoning them to the degrading power of sin, [25] Because they exchanged the truth of God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, Who is blessed forever! Amen (so be it). [26] For this reason God gave them over and abandoned them to vile affections and degrading passions. For their women exchanged their natural function for an unnatural and abnormal one, [27] And the men also turned from natural relations with women and were set ablaze (burning out, consumed) with lust for one another--men committing shameful acts with men and suffering in their own bodies and personalities the inevitable consequences and penalty of their wrong-doing and going astray, which was their fitting retribution. [28] And so, since they did not see fit to acknowledge God or approve of Him or consider Him worth the knowing, God gave them over to a base and condemned mind to do things not proper or decent but loathsome, [29] Until they were filled (permeated and saturated) with every kind of unrighteousness, iniquity, grasping and covetous greed, and malice. They were full of envy and jealousy, murder, strife, deceit and treachery, ill will and cruel ways. They were secret backbiters and gossipers, [30] Slanderers, hateful to and hating God, full of insolence, arrogance, and boasting; inventors of new forms of evil, disobedient and undutiful to parents. [31] They were without understanding, conscienceless and faithless, heartless and loveless and merciless. [32] Though they are fully aware of God''s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve to die, they not only do them themselves but approve and applaud others who practice them.
Matthew 11:20-24 (AMP)
Then He began to censure and reproach the cities in which most of His mighty works had been performed, because they did not repent and their hearts were not changed. [21] Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would long ago have repented in sackcloth and ashes and their hearts would have been changed. [22] I tell you further, it shall be more endurable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment than for you. [23] And you, Capernaum, are you to be lifted up to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades the region of the dead! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have continued until today. [24] But I tell you, it shall be more endurable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgment than for you.
Ephesians 5:27 (AMP)
That He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such things that she might be holy and faultless.
Proverbs 31:10-12,25-31 (AMP)
A capable, intelligent, and virtuous woman--who is he who can find her? She is far more precious than jewels and her value is far above rubies or pearls. [11] The heart of her husband trusts in her confidently and relies on and believes in her securely, so that he has no lack of honest gain or need of dishonest spoil. [12] She comforts, encourages, and does him only good as long as there is life within her. [25] Strength and dignity are her clothing and her position is strong and secure; she rejoices over the future the latter day or time to come, knowing that she and her family are in readiness for it! [26] She opens her mouth in skillful and godly Wisdom, and on her tongue is the law of kindness giving counsel and instruction. [27] She looks well to how things go in her household, and the bread of idleness (gossip, discontent, and self-pity) she will not eat. [28] Her children rise up and call her blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied); and her husband boasts of and praises her, saying, [29] Many daughters have done virtuously, nobly, and well with the strength of character that is steadfast in goodness, but you excel them all. [30] Charm and grace are deceptive, and beauty is vain because it is not lasting, but a woman who reverently and worshipfully fears the Lord, she shall be praised! [31] Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates of the city!
I have given My church the gifts of the Spirit to detect the activities of the enemy from with out. As long as these gifts are exercised regularly and not misused or neglected they will keep My church strong and growing. The western church for the most part has neglected or misused the gifts. They many time act foolishly, prophesying nice little complements of how I feel about someone, when I have not spoken a word.
Not knowing demons from flesh, they attempt to cast out flesh, when it only has to be mortified by a disciplined lifestyle. They pray for healing, when a spirit of infirmity has to be cast out. They pretend to give words of knowledge after they have previously investigated the situation, and already know naturally. They say they have a word of wisdom, when it's just common sense.
As a result of this foolishness many others have chosen to neglect the gifts all together. These have the knowledge of salvation, but deny the power behind it. Thus they are powerless to stop the deadly blows of the enemy. As a result the enemy has infiltrated the church to the point that a reprobate shepherd can marry two reprobates of the same sex, and call it Holy. What I destroyed by fire once, I will destroy again. I am the same God that destroyed Sodom and Gamorah, I have not changed. All those who tolerate this activity will suffer the same fate.
In My last day church, there can not be this gross misuse and disregard of My Spiritual gifts. I have also set godly women among you as helpmates, with a keen sense of approaching trouble. This sense is not based in fear, but in that of a Godly motherly protection. She need not know why or how, but she is able to pick out the enemy, before he is in striking distance. She is a mans radar, do not neglect her warnings or mis-use this gift, it will save your life and avoid pitfalls that delay My plan.
There are those that have infiltrated the worldly church and have been in strong position for years, in which case they may have damaged the local body beyond repair. Refusing to deny reprobates, openly condoning sin and every evil work, I have written Ichabod over their door posts. This is not My church, Antichrist heads this church and you are to leave, if you desire not to be burned, figuratively or literally, get out now.
My church is a glorious church without spot or wrinkle, a triumphant church that remains the head and not the tail until the end of time. Become that church and I will welcome you into the My kingdom.
1 Corinthians 12:1-31 (AMP)
NOW ABOUT the spiritual gifts (the special endowments of supernatural energy), brethren, I do not want you to be misinformed. [2] You know that when you were heathen, you were led off after idols that could not speak habitually as impulse directed and whenever the occasion might arise. [3] Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking under the power and influence of the Holy Spirit of God can ever say, Jesus be cursed! And no one can really say, Jesus is my Lord, except by and under the power and influence of the Holy Spirit. [4] Now there are distinctive varieties and distributions of endowments (gifts, extraordinary powers distinguishing certain Christians, due to the power of divine grace operating in their souls by the Holy Spirit) and they vary, but the Holy Spirit remains the same.

GIVE ME A REASON TO BLESS YOU
GIVE ME A REASON TO BLESS YOU
I hear so much complaining from jealous carnal believers, that are furious when I bless others. For this reason alone I refuse to prosper them, in any way. There are five ingredients you must possess, in order to receive My blessing and have it continue.
Number one is, I must be first and foremost in your life. There can be none other in your list, that is vying for first place.
Number two is, you must love Me with all your heart, mind, soul and strength, above everything and everyone.
Number three, your personal agenda must no longer exist, and the only empire you want to build is My kingdom.
Number four, You must love the widow and orphan, and the poor and down trodden. Love them as i love them, in action and not with lip service.
Number five, you must be willing to leave everything and do exactly as I say, how I say, and when I say, without question or hesitation.
Having these five, I have a reason to bless you. I do not bless you because you earn it, or your looks, or because of your personality. I bless you, that you in turn will bless others. I am an investor, but be sure I am a wise investor, who is looking for a good return on My investment. I send My chosen ones forth to invest in Your life. They do as I say, and do the unusual, as I direct them. I have seen the potential in your heart, and when I start to see Myself in you as they continue to invest, I increase My blessings.
My goal is to make you the full example of a kingdom person, demonstrating a kingdom lifestyle, while still in a flesh and blood body. Sinful habits destroyed, endless energy, always coming out on top, always healthy, always more than enough money, and continually motivated and consumed by My love. You are to be in constant contact with Me, always having My words in your mouth, when you are called on.
This is what I will invest in. The reason, why I am investing in you, I see Me in you, and the more you submit to me and separate yourself unto Me, the more I will expand your blessing. However if I find My investment is buried in your flesh, where you reject the poor and down trodden or being consumed by your lust, building your own kingdom, I will quickly take it away and give it to another and you will become a cast away.
I have great plans for you, plans that you can never accomplish without a supernatural nature. My investment in you, will develop a supernatural inner strength that will amaze your peers. You will be able to draw on that strength when others have reached their limit. Sickness will avoid you, and germs will die on contact, because of the power that resides in you.
If you do not believe this is My plan for you, you have already eliminated yourself. Your lack of faith will keep you going in circles until you die. Becoming a kingdom person is the only way you live your full life out to it's fullest. Sin has taken it's toll on the human body as generations have decayed.
The natural body will never keep up with the kingdom body. The kingdom person has many lives just as the eagle. Your waiting on Me will pay off with many new lives. New strength, new energy, keenness of mind, creative abilities, and love abounding.
Multitudes will read this text; (Psalm 103:2-5 Bless the Lord , O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
[3] Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; [4] Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; [5] Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.) and never benefit one thing from it, because their spiritual eyes are darkened by mixing with the Babylonians.
They listen to the same doctors, watch the same news and go to the same entertainment spots as the Babylonians. They laugh at the same dirty jokes, and read the same filthy literature. They dress the same, look the same, smell the same, and talk the same. They get sick the same, fear the same, complain the same, get angry the same, take the same drugs, and serve mammon the same. This mixture will cost them the kingdom, because they fear the rejection of Babylon and they will die the same.
I hate a mixture!!!
I know your record of works and what you are doing; you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot! [16] So, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth! [17] For you say, I am rich; I have prospered and grown wealthy, and I am in need of nothing; and you do not realize and understand that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. [18] Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be truly wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see. Revelation 3:15-18 (AMP)
Now give Me a reason to bless you and watch what I do, as I move you to a super human state.
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.
Romans 8:11 (AMP)
And if the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, then He Who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore to life your mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies through His Spirit Who dwells in you.
Exodus 15:26 (AMP)
Saying, If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and will do what is right in His sight, and will listen to and obey His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you which I brought upon the Egyptians, for I am the Lord Who heals you.
James 1:5 (AMP)
If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God Who gives to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him.
Colossians 3:22-25 (AMP)
Servants, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not only when their eyes are on you as pleasers of men, but in simplicity of purpose with all your heart because of your reverence for the Lord and as a sincere expression of your devotion to Him. [23] Whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as something done for the Lord and not for men, [24] Knowing with all certainty that it is from the Lord and not from men that you will receive the inheritance which is your real reward. The One Whom you are actually serving is the Lord Christ (the Messiah). [25] For he who deals wrongfully will reap the fruit of his folly and be punished for his wrongdoing. And with God there is no partiality no matter what a person''s position may be, whether he is the slave or the master.
2 Corinthians 6:14-18 (AMP)
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers do not make mismated alliances with them or come under a different yoke with them, inconsistent with your faith. For what partnership have right living and right standing with God with iniquity and lawlessness? Or how can light have fellowship with darkness? [15] What harmony can there be between Christ and Belial the devil? Or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever? [16] What agreement can there be between a temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in and with and among them and will walk in and with and among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. [17] So, come out from among unbelievers, and separate (sever) yourselves from them, says the Lord, and touch not any unclean thing; then I will receive you kindly and treat you with favor, [18] And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.
Matthew 25:13-31 (AMP)
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. [14] For it is like a man who was about to take a long journey, and he called his servants together and entrusted them with his property. [15] To one he gave five talents probably about $5,000, to another two, to another one--to each in proportion to his own personal ability. Then he departed and left the country. [16] He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he gained five talents more. [17] And likewise he who had received the two talents--he also gained two talents more. [18] But he who had received the one talent went and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master''s money. [19] Now after a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. [20] And he who had received the five talents came and brought him five more, saying, Master, you entrusted to me five talents; see, here I have gained five talents more. [21] His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the blessedness) which your master enjoys. [22] And he also who had the two talents came forward, saying, Master, you entrusted two talents to me; here I have gained two talents more. [23] His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the blessedness) which your master enjoys. [24] He who had received one talent also came forward, saying, Master, I knew you to be a harsh and hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you had not winnowed the grain. [25] So I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is your own. [26] But his master answered him, You wicked and lazy and idle servant! Did you indeed know that I reap where I have not sowed and gather grain where I have not winnowed? [27] Then you should have invested my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received what was my own with interest. [28] So take the talent away from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents.

I hear so much complaining from jealous carnal believers, that are furious when I bless others. For this reason alone I refuse to prosper them, in any way. There are five ingredients you must possess, in order to receive My blessing and have it continue.
Number one is, I must be first and foremost in your life. There can be none other in your list, that is vying for first place.
Number two is, you must love Me with all your heart, mind, soul and strength, above everything and everyone.
Number three, your personal agenda must no longer exist, and the only empire you want to build is My kingdom.
Number four, You must love the widow and orphan, and the poor and down trodden. Love them as i love them, in action and not with lip service.
Number five, you must be willing to leave everything and do exactly as I say, how I say, and when I say, without question or hesitation.
Having these five, I have a reason to bless you. I do not bless you because you earn it, or your looks, or because of your personality. I bless you, that you in turn will bless others. I am an investor, but be sure I am a wise investor, who is looking for a good return on My investment. I send My chosen ones forth to invest in Your life. They do as I say, and do the unusual, as I direct them. I have seen the potential in your heart, and when I start to see Myself in you as they continue to invest, I increase My blessings.
My goal is to make you the full example of a kingdom person, demonstrating a kingdom lifestyle, while still in a flesh and blood body. Sinful habits destroyed, endless energy, always coming out on top, always healthy, always more than enough money, and continually motivated and consumed by My love. You are to be in constant contact with Me, always having My words in your mouth, when you are called on.
This is what I will invest in. The reason, why I am investing in you, I see Me in you, and the more you submit to me and separate yourself unto Me, the more I will expand your blessing. However if I find My investment is buried in your flesh, where you reject the poor and down trodden or being consumed by your lust, building your own kingdom, I will quickly take it away and give it to another and you will become a cast away.
I have great plans for you, plans that you can never accomplish without a supernatural nature. My investment in you, will develop a supernatural inner strength that will amaze your peers. You will be able to draw on that strength when others have reached their limit. Sickness will avoid you, and germs will die on contact, because of the power that resides in you.
If you do not believe this is My plan for you, you have already eliminated yourself. Your lack of faith will keep you going in circles until you die. Becoming a kingdom person is the only way you live your full life out to it's fullest. Sin has taken it's toll on the human body as generations have decayed.
The natural body will never keep up with the kingdom body. The kingdom person has many lives just as the eagle. Your waiting on Me will pay off with many new lives. New strength, new energy, keenness of mind, creative abilities, and love abounding.
Multitudes will read this text; (Psalm 103:2-5 Bless the Lord , O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:
[3] Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; [4] Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; [5] Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.) and never benefit one thing from it, because their spiritual eyes are darkened by mixing with the Babylonians.
They listen to the same doctors, watch the same news and go to the same entertainment spots as the Babylonians. They laugh at the same dirty jokes, and read the same filthy literature. They dress the same, look the same, smell the same, and talk the same. They get sick the same, fear the same, complain the same, get angry the same, take the same drugs, and serve mammon the same. This mixture will cost them the kingdom, because they fear the rejection of Babylon and they will die the same.
I hate a mixture!!!
I know your record of works and what you are doing; you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were cold or hot! [16] So, because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth! [17] For you say, I am rich; I have prospered and grown wealthy, and I am in need of nothing; and you do not realize and understand that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. [18] Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be truly wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see. Revelation 3:15-18 (AMP)
Now give Me a reason to bless you and watch what I do, as I move you to a super human state.
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.
Romans 8:11 (AMP)
And if the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, then He Who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore to life your mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies through His Spirit Who dwells in you.
Exodus 15:26 (AMP)
Saying, If you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and will do what is right in His sight, and will listen to and obey His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases upon you which I brought upon the Egyptians, for I am the Lord Who heals you.
James 1:5 (AMP)
If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God Who gives to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him.
Colossians 3:22-25 (AMP)
Servants, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not only when their eyes are on you as pleasers of men, but in simplicity of purpose with all your heart because of your reverence for the Lord and as a sincere expression of your devotion to Him. [23] Whatever may be your task, work at it heartily (from the soul), as something done for the Lord and not for men, [24] Knowing with all certainty that it is from the Lord and not from men that you will receive the inheritance which is your real reward. The One Whom you are actually serving is the Lord Christ (the Messiah). [25] For he who deals wrongfully will reap the fruit of his folly and be punished for his wrongdoing. And with God there is no partiality no matter what a person''s position may be, whether he is the slave or the master.
2 Corinthians 6:14-18 (AMP)
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers do not make mismated alliances with them or come under a different yoke with them, inconsistent with your faith. For what partnership have right living and right standing with God with iniquity and lawlessness? Or how can light have fellowship with darkness? [15] What harmony can there be between Christ and Belial the devil? Or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever? [16] What agreement can there be between a temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God; even as God said, I will dwell in and with and among them and will walk in and with and among them, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people. [17] So, come out from among unbelievers, and separate (sever) yourselves from them, says the Lord, and touch not any unclean thing; then I will receive you kindly and treat you with favor, [18] And I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.
Matthew 25:13-31 (AMP)
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. [14] For it is like a man who was about to take a long journey, and he called his servants together and entrusted them with his property. [15] To one he gave five talents probably about $5,000, to another two, to another one--to each in proportion to his own personal ability. Then he departed and left the country. [16] He who had received the five talents went at once and traded with them, and he gained five talents more. [17] And likewise he who had received the two talents--he also gained two talents more. [18] But he who had received the one talent went and dug a hole in the ground and hid his master''s money. [19] Now after a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts with them. [20] And he who had received the five talents came and brought him five more, saying, Master, you entrusted to me five talents; see, here I have gained five talents more. [21] His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the blessedness) which your master enjoys. [22] And he also who had the two talents came forward, saying, Master, you entrusted two talents to me; here I have gained two talents more. [23] His master said to him, Well done, you upright (honorable, admirable) and faithful servant! You have been faithful and trustworthy over a little; I will put you in charge of much. Enter into and share the joy (the delight, the blessedness) which your master enjoys. [24] He who had received one talent also came forward, saying, Master, I knew you to be a harsh and hard man, reaping where you did not sow, and gathering where you had not winnowed the grain. [25] So I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. Here you have what is your own. [26] But his master answered him, You wicked and lazy and idle servant! Did you indeed know that I reap where I have not sowed and gather grain where I have not winnowed? [27] Then you should have invested my money with the bankers, and at my coming I would have received what was my own with interest. [28] So take the talent away from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents. [29] For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will be furnished richly so that he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have will be taken away. [30] And throw the good-for-nothing servant into the outer darkness; there will be weeping and grinding of teeth. [31] When the Son of Man comes in His glory (His majesty and splendor), and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.
