FAITH, OBEDIENCE AND SUPPLY
This is the kingdom survival kit. I never deviate from this order in My kingdom. You are questioning how to prepare for the coming days of hardship. I have never changed and will never change. Have you forgotten that, I am the same, yesterday, today and forever?
Search My word from cover to cover and see how many times any of My people starved to death. Search again and see how Many times I used this kingdom formula, to supply the necessities of life, when the world was starving. Faith, obedience and supply always in that order, will guarantee enough and to spare. When faith wavers, disobedience occurs out of fear, and lack is sure to follow.
If you build when I have not instructed you to build, your building is motivated by fear. If you save and preserve when I have said to spend, your fear of lack, has caused you to disobey and supply will never arrive. Faith and obedience stirs up My creative power. I love to reward faith and obedience with miracles.
You have been educated on how to die and do not realize it. Doubt and questioning have become something to be proud of in your nation. When you do not doubt Me, you have been taught to doubt yourself and further you have been taught to question your relationship with Me. Finaly you have been taught to doubt your ability to hear and My ability to speak to you.
Doubt is a sure way to die during a famine. As always, I will do all the instructing on how and what, needs to be done to prepare. I want to provide more that you want to receive. When I prepare you it will not be a hardship, but joy and growth will come, as My Holy spirit directs the operation.
If you prepare by the work of your flesh and happen to survive then I receive no glory, for many in the world will do the same. If you feel anxious, then you are being disobedient, because I said," be anxious for nothing", I did not make any exceptions for times of famine. Thus far I have provided very well for you, but it has been according to your faith, in easy times. Remember any lack you have ever suffered, is strictly due to the doubt and fear you carry in your heart. I cannot lie and I said, I will provide," according to your faith". What you have, is what you have had faith for.
I do not refer to the material goods that you earned by the sweat of your brow. I am speaking of the things I provided, because of your following the kingdom formula. The sweat of your brow formula will soon come to an end. Yes, you will work, but the work will come as a miracle provision through the kingdom formula, when there is no work. For My children who follow the kingdom formula there will always be bread enough and enough to spare, for those I have given in your care.
Miracle living is foreign to you because, the land of plenty, has robbed you of the vital need to exercise faith and build a relationship of real trust in Me. You are still considering what you have on hand, to carry you through the future. You are hesitating on obeying because you are looking down at the water of world conditions. I plainly said to,"LOOK UP", when you see these coming to pass.
I have a plan for your future, but you will never see it looking down. Are you planning to run when everyone starts running? You will if you are still looking down. What you began in the Spirit, do not try to finish in the flesh. I am not scared, or panicked or even in a hurry, so why should you be? Unless you are away from Me and planning on suppling your own needs and the needs of others by yourself.
If this is your state then you should be panicked, because there is not enough time or resources for natural supply, you will only survive with supernatural supply, following the kingdom formula. Now enter into My rest and obey My instructions and do not doubt again. Remember where I am there is always a miracle happening.
I just speak and everything but humans obey. The elements, the land, the trees, plants and flowers, the sea, the four winds, the planets, the sun, moon and stars, the animals, the fouls of the air, and the fish of the sea all instantly obey My voice, only man disobeys because I gave him a free will and dominion over all that I have listed. Obedience will bring them back under your dominion.
You have asked for something from My word to go on, so here it is.
Genesis 1:11-12 (KJV)
And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so. [12] And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
1 Kings 17:4-16 (KJV)
And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have commanded the ravens to feed thee there. [5] So he went and did according unto the word of the Lord : for he went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan. [6] And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook. [7] And it came to pass after a while, that the brook dried up, because there had been no rain in the land. [8] And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, [9] Arise, get thee to Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee. [10] So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink. [11] And as she was going to fetch it , he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand. [12] And she said, As the Lord thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die. [13] And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. [14] For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth. [15] And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. [16] And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord , which he spake by Elijah.
Numbers 20:7-12 (KJV)
And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, [8] Take the rod, and gather thou the assembly together, thou, and Aaron thy brother, and speak ye unto the rock before their eyes; and it shall give forth his water, and thou shalt bring forth to them water out of the rock: so thou shalt give the congregation and their beasts drink. [9] And Moses took the rod from before the Lord , as he commanded him. [10] And Moses and Aaron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? [11] And Moses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also . [12] And the Lord spake unto Moses and Aaron, Because ye believed me not, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this congregation into the land which I have given them.
13 (AMP) These are the waters of Meribah strife, where the Israelites contended with the Lord and He showed Himself holy among them.
Exodus 16:10-33 (KJV)
And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. [11] And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, [12] I have heard the murmurings of the children of Israel: speak unto them, saying, At even ye shall eat flesh, and in the morning ye shall be filled with bread; and ye shall know that I am the Lord your God. [13] And it came to pass, that at even the quails came up, and covered the camp: and in the morning the dew lay round about the host. [14] And when the dew that lay was gone up, behold, upon the face of the wilderness there lay a small round thing, as small as the hoar frost on the ground. [15] And when the children of Israel saw it , they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was . And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat. [16] This is the thing which the Lord hath commanded, Gather of it every man according to his eating, an omer for every man, according to the number of your persons; take ye every man for them which are in his tents. [17] And the children of Israel did so, and gathered, some more, some less. [18] And when they did mete it with an omer, he that gathered much had nothing over, and he that gathered little had no lack; they gathered every man according to his eating. [19] And Moses said, Let no man leave of it till the morning. [20] Notwithstanding they hearkened not unto Moses; but some of them left of it until the morning, and it bred worms, and stank: and Moses was wroth with them. [21] And they gathered it every morning, every man according to his eating: and when the sun waxed hot, it melted. [22] And it came to pass, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for one man : and all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses. [23] And he said unto them, This is that which the Lord hath said, To morrow is the rest of the holy sabbath unto the Lord : bake that which ye will bake to day , and seethe that ye will seethe; and that which remaineth over lay up for you to be kept until the morning. [24] And they laid it up till the morning, as Moses bade: and it did not stink, neither was there any worm therein. [25] And Moses said, Eat that to day; for to day is a sabbath unto the Lord : to day ye shall not find it in the field. [26] Six days ye shall gather it; but on the seventh day, which is the sabbath, in it there shall be none. [27] And it came to pass, that there went out some of the people on the seventh day for to gather, and they found none. [28] And the Lord said unto Moses, How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws? [29] See, for that the Lord hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day. [30] So the people rested on the seventh day. [31] And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey. [32] And Moses said, This is the thing which the Lord commandeth, Fill an omer of it to be kept for your generations; that they may see the bread wherewith I have fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you forth from the land of Egypt. [33] And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a pot, and put an omer full of manna therein, and lay it up before the Lord , to be kept for your generations.
2 Kings 4:40-41 (KJV)
So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof . [41] But he said, Then bring meal. And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.
2 Kings 6:4-7 (KJV)
So he went with them. And when they came to Jordan, they cut down wood. [5] But as one was felling a beam, the axe head fell into the water: and he cried, and said, Alas, master! for it was borrowed. [6] And the man of God said, Where fell it? And he shewed him the place. And he cut down a stick, and cast it in thither; and the iron did swim. [7] Therefore said he, Take it up to thee. And he put out his hand, and took it.
Deuteronomy 29:5 (KJV)
And I have led you forty years in the wilderness: your clothes are not waxen old upon you, and thy shoe is not waxen old upon thy foot.
Deuteronomy 29:2-9 (AMP)
Moses called to all Israel and said to them, You have seen all that the Lord did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, to all his servants, and to all his land; [3] The great trials which your eyes saw, the signs, and those great wonders. [4] Yet the Lord has not given you a mind and heart to understand and eyes to see and ears to hear, to this day. [5] I have led you forty years in the wilderness; your clothes have not worn out upon you, and your sandals have not worn off your feet. [6] You have not eaten grain bread, nor have you drunk wine or strong drink, that you might recognize and know your dependence on Him Who is saying, I am the Lord your God. [7] And when you came to this place, Sihon king of Heshbon and Og king of Bashan came out against us to battle, but we defeated them. [8] We took their land and gave it as an inheritance to the Reubenites, the Gadites, and the half-tribe of the Manassites. [9] Therefore keep the words of this covenant and do them, that you may deal wisely and prosper in all that you do.
Psalm 91:3-12 (KJV)
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. [4] He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. [5] Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; [6] Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. [7] A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. [8] Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. [9] Because thou hast made the Lord , which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; [10] There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. [11] For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. [12] They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Matthew 6:30-34 (AMP)
But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and green and tomorrow is tossed into the furnace, will He not much more surely clothe you, O you of little faith? [31] Therefore do not worry and be anxious, saying, What are we going to have to eat? or, What are we going to have to drink? or, What are we going to have to wear? [32] For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all. [33] But seek (aim at and strive after) first of all His kingdom and His righteousness (His way of doing and being right), and then all these things taken together will be given you besides. [34] So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble.
Matthew 15:36-38 (KJV)
And he took the seven loaves and the fishes, and gave thanks, and brake them , and gave to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude. [37] And they did all eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken meat that was left seven baskets full. [38] And they that did eat were four thousand men, beside women and children.
Genesis 6:14-22 (KJV)
Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch. [15] And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of : The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits. [16] A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it. [17] And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die. [18] But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee. [19] And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female. [20] Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive. [21] And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them. [22] Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
Genesis 41:33-44 (KJV)
Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt. [34] Let Pharaoh do this , and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years. [35] And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities. [36] And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine. [37] And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants. [38] And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find such a one as this is , a man in whom the Spirit of God is ? [39] And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this, there is none so discreet and wise as thou art : [40] Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. [41] And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. [42] And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck; [43] And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried before him, Bow the knee: and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt. [44] And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.
Proverbs 3:5 (AMP)
Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding.

[32] Therefore, everyone who acknowledges Me before men and confesses Me out of a state of oneness with Me, I will also acknowledge him before My Father Who is in heaven and confess that I am abiding in him.
Matthew 6:26 (KJV)
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
Luke 11:10-13 (KJV)
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. [11] If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? [12] Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? [13] If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
Psalm 37:23-29 (KJV)
The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord : and he delighteth in his way. [24] Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand. [25] I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. [26] He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed. [27] Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore. [28] For the Lord loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. [29] The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.

[13] And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. [14] For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth. [15] And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days. [16] And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the Lord , which he spake by Elijah.
2 Kings 4:2-7 (KJV)
And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil. [3] Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. [4] And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full. [5] So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out. [6] And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed. [7] Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil, and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.
James 1:3-8 (KJV)
Knowing this , that the trying of your faith worketh patience. [4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. [5] If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. [6] But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. [7] For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. [8] A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

LEARNING TO WORK ON KINGDOM PAYROLL GOING TO THE DEPTHS OF MATT 6:33
LEARNING TO WORK ON KINGDOM PAYROLL GOING TO THE DEPTHS OF MATT 6:33
I have a shortage of laborers in the harvest field and most people have no idea who they are or what the laborers look like or what they do. Laborers are those who will seek My kingdom first, above all else. They are ordinary people as far as the world sees them, however they are on My special payroll. They have no time for foolish religious ceremony, being ever focused on My call on their lives.
I am recruiting many more kingdom seekers in these final days. My word must get to the world without compromise and without hypocrisy. The depth of this calling requires an abandonment that is not naturally understood. You must understand what to do with severe spiritual pain. However you must first recognize what it is and know that it's origin is from the supernatural realm.
Kingdom seekers become familiar with the groanings of My Spirit and respond accordingly. The deep intercession that is called for by My spirit is felt in the soul and even the physical body. The physical body feels an unexplainable deep aching in the chest cavity that is not from a body ailment but from the center core of the spirit of man.
As My Holy Spirit directs the operations of My kingdom on earth, He only works through willing human vessels to carry out My eternal plan. Just as My son was submitted to My will, when He was earth bound, so is My Holy Spirit in the earth to to prepare My church, to receive My kingdom at My Sons return. Great works must be accomplished in the hearts of men and women. Many spiritual mountains must be moved, but this will only be done by a man/God team. When a Spirit filled Christian comes to maturity, then he becomes an established fortress from which My Spirit can infiltrate new enemy held territory.
In the spiritual world, weapons are not natural and do not use gun powder or earthly fire power. They are not fired from ships or air or land. The weapons are fired from the center core or the belly of the kingdom seeker. When an assault is launched, instead of the sound of explosions, the roar of rockets and jet engines, a deep inner groaning is heard. The sound is eerie to the natural man, but glorious to Me. It is the sound of My kingdom advancing in enemy held territory where people are held captive. It is the sound of freedom.
All believers that are willing to lay down their lives to become a launching pad for spiritual assaults, will be well compensated for their sacrifice. I will see that all their physical needs are met with no effort on their part. I will simply add it to them. The taking of new territory and the advancement of My kingdom is so important to Me that I gave a prayer request to you, to pray back to Me that I might supply laborers.
I will not invade the world and usurp the will of man. I will not just send laborers of My own will. I want you to want Me, involved in your life and world. If you want Me more involved, then you will ask Me for more laborers. I wait to be invited and then I will move in, according to My Spirits working in you.
The new laborers are sent in to occupy the new territory. When you are suffering spiritual pain and groaning, be encouraged and look for new growth. The pushing back of demonic forces in enemy held territory, takes real effort in the spirit and may be called for anywhere, any time. This is why it is imperative that My kingdom come first, before anything in life. Very few are on kingdom payroll because of this very fact, I cannot trust most believers to keep the kingdom first, more than a day.
Family, friends, job, education, toys, entertainment, personal agendas and money always grab 1st place. When this is the case, they must provide for their own needs. Most are forced to use the world system of borrowing, which makes it even harder to put My kingdom first, because they are obligated to the lender.
As the day approaches many more will offer themselves as launching pads, seeking My kingdom first. These special ones will be bonded together with love each understanding what the Spirit is saying. I am constantly recruiting more laborers, Do you wish to go on My payroll?
Matthew 9:36-38 (AMP)
When He saw the throngs, He was moved with pity and sympathy for them, because they were bewildered (harassed and distressed and dejected and helpless), like sheep without a shepherd. [37] Then He said to His disciples, The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. [38] So pray to the Lord of the harvest to force out and thrust laborers into His harvest.
Matthew 6:31-34 (KJV)
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? [32] (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. [33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. [34] Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Romans 8:26-27 (AMP)
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.
Mark 8:12 (AMP)
And He groaned and sighed deeply in His spirit and said, Why does this generation demand a sign? Positively I say to you, no sign shall be given this generation.
2 Corinthians 5:4-5 (AMP)
For while we are still in this tent, we groan under the burden and sigh deeply (weighed down, depressed, oppressed)--not that we want to put off the body (the clothing of the spirit), but rather that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal (our dying body) may be swallowed up by life after the resurrection. [5] Now He Who has fashioned us preparing and making us fit for this very thing is God, Who also has given us the Holy Spirit as a guarantee of the fulfillment of His promise.
Matthew 11:12 (AMP)
And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven has endured violent assault, and violent men seize it by force as a precious prize--a share in the heavenly kingdom is sought with most ardent zeal and intense exertion.
2 Corinthians 10:5 (KJV)
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
2 Corinthians 10:3-4 (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,
Ephesians 6:10-12 (KJV)
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. [11] Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places .
Ephesians 3:20-21 (KJV)
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, [21] Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
I have a shortage of laborers in the harvest field and most people have no idea who they are or what the laborers look like or what they do. Laborers are those who will seek My kingdom first, above all else. They are ordinary people as far as the world sees them, however they are on My special payroll.

Kingdom seekers become familiar with the groanings of My Spirit and respond accordingly. The deep intercession that is called for by My spirit is felt in the soul and even the physical body. The physical body feels an unexplainable deep aching in the chest cavity that is not from a body ailment but from the center core of the spirit of man.
As My Holy Spirit directs the operations of My kingdom on earth, He only works through willing human vessels to carry out My eternal plan. Just as My son was submitted to My will, when He was earth bound, so is My Holy Spirit in the earth to to prepare My church, to receive My kingdom at My Sons return. Great works must be accomplished in the hearts of men and women. Many spiritual mountains must be moved, but this will only be done by a man/God team. When a Spirit filled Christian comes to maturity, then he becomes an established fortress from which My Spirit can infiltrate new enemy held territory.
In the spiritual world, weapons are not natural and do not use gun powder or earthly fire power. They are not fired from ships or air or land. The weapons are fired from the center core or the belly of the kingdom seeker. When an assault is launched, instead of the sound of explosions, the roar of rockets and jet engines, a deep inner groaning is heard. The sound is eerie to the natural man, but glorious to Me. It is the sound of My kingdom advancing in enemy held territory where people are held captive. It is the sound of freedom.
All believers that are willing to lay down their lives to become a launching pad for spiritual assaults, will be well compensated for their sacrifice. I will see that all their physical needs are met with no effort on their part. I will simply add it to them. The taking of new territory and the advancement of My kingdom is so important to Me that I gave a prayer request to you, to pray back to Me that I might supply laborers.
I will not invade the world and usurp the will of man. I will not just send laborers of My own will. I want you to want Me, involved in your life and world. If you want Me more involved, then you will ask Me for more laborers. I wait to be invited and then I will move in, according to My Spirits working in you.
The new laborers are sent in to occupy the new territory. When you are suffering spiritual pain and groaning, be encouraged and look for new growth. The pushing back of demonic forces in enemy held territory, takes real effort in the spirit and may be called for anywhere, any time. This is why it is imperative that My kingdom come first, before anything in life. Very few are on kingdom payroll because of this very fact, I cannot trust most believers to keep the kingdom first, more than a day.
Family, friends, job, education, toys, entertainment, personal agendas and money always grab 1st place. When this is the case, they must provide for their own needs. Most are forced to use the world system of borrowing, which makes it even harder to put My kingdom first, because they are obligated to the lender.
As the day approaches many more will offer themselves as launching pads, seeking My kingdom first. These special ones will be bonded together with love each understanding what the Spirit is saying. I am constantly recruiting more laborers, Do you wish to go on My payroll?
Matthew 9:36-38 (AMP)
When He saw the throngs, He was moved with pity and sympathy for them, because they were bewildered (harassed and distressed and dejected and helpless), like sheep without a shepherd. [37] Then He said to His disciples, The harvest is indeed plentiful, but the laborers are few. [38] So pray to the Lord of the harvest to force out and thrust laborers into His harvest.
Matthew 6:31-34 (KJV)
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? [32] (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. [33] But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. [34] Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Romans 8:26-27 (AMP)
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.
Mark 8:12 (AMP)
And He groaned and sighed deeply in His spirit and said, Why does this generation demand a sign? Positively I say to you, no sign shall be given this generation.
2 Corinthians 5:4-5 (AMP)
For while we are still in this tent, we groan under the burden and sigh deeply (weighed down, depressed, oppressed)--not that we want to put off the body (the clothing of the spirit), but rather that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal (our dying body) may be swallowed up by life after the resurrection. [5] Now He Who has fashioned us preparing and making us fit for this very thing is God, Who also has given us the Holy Spirit as a guarantee of the fulfillment of His promise.
Matthew 11:12 (AMP)
And from the days of John the Baptist until the present time, the kingdom of heaven has endured violent assault, and violent men seize it by force as a precious prize--a share in the heavenly kingdom is sought with most ardent zeal and intense exertion.
2 Corinthians 10:5 (KJV)
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ;
2 Corinthians 10:3-4 (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,
Ephesians 6:10-12 (KJV)
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. [11] Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. [12] For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places .
Ephesians 3:20-21 (KJV)
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, [21] Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

CONTINUAL REST ... THE LAST DAYS REST, OR AN EARLY HOLE IN THE GROUND
CONTINUAL REST ... THE LAST DAYS REST, OR AN EARLY HOLE IN THE GROUND
Your mind has a difficult time grasping My rest because human frailty makes you vulnerable to any thing and everything. Someone, somewhere, sometime, has died or been injured by just about anything you can imagine. This vulnerability establishes a basic unrest from childhood.
The moment a parent instructs a child to watch out for a danger, the first seeds of unrest are planted. The more a person suffers from life's hurtful experiences the more unrest they experience. As you move into the last days, heart failure will greatly increase because of the stress that stems from unrest. My children are not exempt from this stress, they will simply come home earlier that planned.
All sickness and decease finds it's origin in the death that was passed on to all mankind through Adam's sin. The sin of unbelief or lack of trust in Me is the cause of all stress. Heavy schedules that I have not authorized, put the constant pressure of time shortage, on even the most dedicated people. The constant thought of, "I must, I must, I must", drives people into a very stressful life.
What happens to all the, "I must, I must, I must" at their early graveside. They did not see the enemy slowly adding adding needless obligations to their daily schedules, with the intent of squeezing Me out of My children's lives. I have a smooth steady peaceful schedule for all My children, that carries with it, no stress. My no stress schedule does not conform to the world system. IT will therefore irritate many of your stressed out brothers and sisters, that reach their grave early. When you slow down to live My schedule, they will try to impose their schedule saying,"you must, you must, you must".
I am the same yesterday today and forever and so is My schedule. If modern technology has made things so much faster, then why is life so much more stressful? 24 hours is still the same 24 hours as it was when I walked the earth. Along with the so called time saving technology, you have not noticed the enemy adding double and triple, needless obligations to your schedule.
You can never save time, this is a foolish statement. You cannot save or store up one second of time. It is like nothing else on earth. It cannot be dammed up as a river, or bottled up as water, or compressed as a gas, or stretched as rubber. There is no such thing, as saving time, it can only be spent as fast as it comes. Time always passes at a set rate and no one can alter it except Me.
People constantly play games trying to stop time, or go forward in time or go back in time, yet time moves on undisturbed, always and constantly ending with a small celebration around a hole in the ground. I have a set time and exactly enough time for you to accomplish all that I have planned for you to do, and it involves no stress at all.
Right now you are trying to grapple with the idea of how to make a living, in a demanding stressed out world, that refuses to go along with My schedule. You are forgetting who I AM. I altar and mess up schedules all the time. I enjoy messing up the plans of people, who have squeezed Me out. I will make a large corporation change it's whole schedule for one who works on My schedule. I make kings and heads of state, rearrange their plans to meet My servants schedule.
Your greatest schedule challenge will come from stressed out members of your own household. Those that will shed the most tears, beside your hole in the ground. The battle will rage for a while during the adjustment period, but the lesson passed on to your children will be, how to live a long stress free life, walking with Me at My pace.
When you study My life on earth, you will see people were constantly trying to change My schedule by speeding it up or delaying it or rearranging it to suit their thinking. I did only what My father had scheduled for Me each day. My last day on earth was no more stressful than My first. People are reaching their limit of stress and more and more hearts will fail.
Stop your world, get off it's schedule and enter into My stress free, rest schedule, where I have allotted plenty of rest and time for intimacy with Me. Remember, the day after your appointment with the hole in the ground, the kids will find another way to soccer practice. Now I ask you, Could it possibly be, that meeting tomorrow's soccer schedule, will take you over your stress limit, to the hole in the ground, much earlier than I had scheduled???
What does your schedule look like today, can you fit Me in? Better yet, why not let Me plan all your tomorrows, I already know your plans and they are headed for disaster. My schedule takes you into My continual rest and still get done all that I have called you to do.
Hebrews 9:27 (KJV)
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
James 4:13-17 (AMP)
Come now, you who say, Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a city and spend a year there and carry on our business and make money. [14] Yet you do not know the least thing about what may happen tomorrow. What is the nature of your life? You are really but a wisp of vapor (a puff of smoke, a mist) that is visible for a little while and then disappears into thin air. [15] You ought instead to say, If the Lord is willing, we shall live and we shall do this or that thing. [16] But as it is, you boast falsely in your presumption and your self-conceit. All such boasting is wrong. [17] So any person who knows what is right to do but does not do it, to him it is sin.
Hebrews 4:1-11 (KJV)
Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it. [2] For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it . [3] For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. [4] For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works. [5] And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest. [6] Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: [7] Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. [8] For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. [9] There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. [10] For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. [11] Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Ecclesiastes 1:1-12 (KJV)
The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. [2] Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. [3] What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun? [4] One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever. [5] The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose. [6] The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits. [7] All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again. [8] All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it : the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. [9] The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. [10] Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. [11] There is no remembrance of former things ; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after. [12] I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-11 (KJV)
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: [2] A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; [3] A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; [4] A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; [5] A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; [6] A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; [7] A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; [8] A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. [9] What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he laboureth? [10] I have seen the travail, which God hath given to the sons of men to be exercised in it. [11] He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
Luke 2:49-50 (KJV)
And he said unto them, How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business? [50] And they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.
John 8:28-29 (KJV)
Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he , and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. [29] And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.
1 Corinthians 11:29-30 (AMP)
For anyone who eats and drinks without discriminating and recognizing with due appreciation that it is Christ''s body, eats and drinks a sentence (a verdict of judgment) upon himself. [30] That careless and unworthy participation is the reason many of you are weak and sickly, and quite enough of you have fallen into the sleep of death.
Romans 9:16 (AMP)
So then God''s gift is not a question of human will and human effort, but of God''s mercy. It depends not on one''s own willingness nor on his strenuous exertion as in running a race, but on God''s having mercy on him.

HIDDEN AGENDAS AND VERY HIDDEN AGENDAS
HIDDEN AGENDAS AND VERY HIDDEN AGENDAS
Many believers have agendas that they are deliberately hiding from other believers. These are plans they have that fit a personal goal. All personal agendas are sin. The combining of these to words constitute sin. There is no sin in something personal, nor is having an agenda wrong, as long as it is My agenda. When a person commits to following Me, they are surrendering all personal agendas. It is impossible to follow Me with a personal agenda.
Personal agendas are very deceptive and always lead to the death of a vision. There are hidden agendas and then there are very hidden agendas. A very hidden agenda is when the person with a hidden agenda is totally unaware of it themselves. Because they are unaware of it they have an innocence and sincerity that leads innocent people astray, to serve their very hidden agenda. The very hidden agenda is very costly, because it goes undetected much longer than the hidden agenda.
The discovery of the very hidden agenda, takes place in the secret place, where My Spirit will cause an unexplained lack of peace. The lack of My support and help, will cause body and soul to be fatigued, thus causing a crying out, and a searching in the Spirit for the source of the very hidden problem. The very hidden agenda can only be dealt with, by My Spirit, because everyone involved is oblivious to it.
You cannot deal with something unless it is revealed because before revelation, to you it does not exist. Peter had a very hidden agenda when he wanted to stay on the mountain of transfiguration with Moses, Elijah and I, and build three tabernacles. It looked very spiritual and to others and to himself. His very hidden agenda was to keep the supernatural for himself because it had more power than he had ever felt before. Unbeknown to him, he wanted to horde My presence at the expense of the people in the valley. He was no longer concerned about, the blind, the sick and the cripple, the very ones I came for. Peter had developed a very hidden agenda aI lead him down off the mountain to his calling.
Becoming spiritually greedy is a very common problem, that looks so spiritual that it can deceive even the mature believer. Whenever you feel an inner irritation, when a person of lesser spirituality shows up, thinking they will disturb your close encounter with Me, you are greedy. Be very cautious that in longing to have My heart, you also have My eyes, eyes that continually look on the harvest fields.
Some people need deliverance, but instead remain in bondage and re-shape it to conform to a very hidden agenda. Some may fear poverty and become over conservative, calling it good stewardship, which slowly leads to a life of hoarding, and then on to the extreme of becoming a pack rat. As the end of the age comes this may appear as one being well prepared for the end times, but it is a very hidden personal agenda. Refusing deliverance from fear, led to a very hidden personal agenda. A false Stewardship appearing spiritual even to the false steward. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden lust for the opposite sex, so they develop a specialized ministry dealing with the opposite sex and soul power gives them a false anointing. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have very hidden insecurity, so they design a counseling ministry that makes people very dependent on them, giving them the feeling of importance. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden dysfunctional spiritual life so they become super neat and organized on the outside, to cover the inner turmoil. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden need to prove themselves worthy, so the become extremely hard workers, appearing to have a superior dedication to Me, but they are troubled on the inside as Martha was. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden desire to have a particular person as a mate and will transform into an angel of light until they have a marriage license. What seemed to be heaven suddenly turns to hell in weeks. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden need for the applause of men, so they practice and develop a great performance ministry causing them to always ask, "how did I do". Not with a concern for the hearer but with a need for the applause of men. They look great, sound great, but they have a very hidden agenda.
In these days the very elect will be the only ones that will not enter into deception. The deception will be so great, not because of hidden agendas but because of very hidden agendas. Where the deceiver has no knowledge that he or she is deceiving. The very hidden agenda stems from a persons refusal to submit an area of their personal life to Me. Therefore it becomes a very hidden personal agenda. The very elect are those who know My voice, and obey it without question or hesitation. Only those, who daily spend time in the secret place, will know My voice and do as I say, and not be deceived.
2 Corinthians 4:2 (AMP)
We have renounced disgraceful ways (secret thoughts, feelings, desires and underhandedness, the methods and arts that men hide through shame); we refuse to deal craftily (to practice trickery and cunning) or to adulterate or handle dishonestly the Word of God, but we state the truth openly (clearly and candidly). And so we commend ourselves in the sight and presence of God to every man''s conscience.
Luke 9:28-37 (AMP)
Now about eight days after these teachings, Jesus took with Him Peter and John and James and went up on the mountain to pray. [29] And as He was praying, the appearance of His countenance became altered (different), and His raiment became dazzling white flashing with the brilliance of lightning. [30] And behold, two men were conversing with Him--Moses and Elijah, [31] Who appeared in splendor and majesty and brightness and were speaking of His exit from life, which He was about to bring to realization at Jerusalem. [32] Now Peter and those with him were weighed down with sleep, but when they fully awoke, they saw His glory (splendor and majesty and brightness) and the two men who stood with Him. [33] And it occurred as the men were parting from Him that Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is delightful and good that we are here; and let us construct three booths or huts--one for You and one for Moses and one for Elijah! not noticing or knowing what he was saying. [34] But even as he was saying this, a cloud came and began to overshadow them, and they were seized with alarm and struck with fear as they entered into the cloud. [35] Then there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is My Son, My Chosen One or My Beloved; listen to and yield to and obey Him! [36] And when the voice had died away, Jesus was found there alone. And they kept still, and told no one at that time any of these things that they had seen. [37] Now it occurred the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, that a great multitude met Him.
Luke 9:54-56 (AMP)
[54] And when His disciples James and John observed this, they said, Lord, do You wish us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, even as Elijah did ? II Kings 1:9-16. [55] But He turned and rebuked and severely censured them. He said, You do not know of what sort of spirit you are, [56] For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men''s lives, but to save them from the penalty of eternal death. And they journeyed on to another village.
Luke 19:41-42 (AMP)
And as He approached, He saw the city, and He wept audibly over it, [42] Exclaiming, Would that you had known personally, even at least in this your day, the things that make for peace (for freedom from all the distresses that are experienced as the result of sin and upon which your peace--your security, safety, prosperity, and happiness--depends)! But now they are hidden from your eyes.
Romans 2:15-16 (AMP)
They show that the essential requirements of the Law are written in their hearts and are operating there, with which their consciences (sense of right and wrong) also bear witness; and their moral decisions (their arguments of reason, their condemning or approving thoughts) will accuse or perhaps defend and excuse them [16] On that day when, as my Gospel proclaims, God by Jesus Christ will judge men in regard to the things which they conceal (their hidden thoughts).
Psalm 69:5-6 (AMP)
O God, You know my folly and blundering; my sins and my guilt are not hidden from You. [6] Let not those who wait and hope and look for You, O Lord of hosts, be put to shame through me; let not those who seek and inquire for and require You as their vital necessity be brought to confusion and dishonor through me, O God of Israel.
Proverbs 28:13-14 (KJV)
He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy. [14] Happy is the man that feareth alway: but he that hardeneth his heart shall fall into mischief.
Galatians 6:3-4 (AMP)
For if any person thinks himself to be somebody too important to condescend to shoulder another''s load when he is nobody of superiority except in his own estimation, he deceives and deludes and cheats himself. [4] But let every person carefully scrutinize and examine and test his own conduct and his own work. He can then have the personal satisfaction and joy of doing something commendable in itself alone without resorting to boastful comparison with his neighbor.
James 1:26-27 (AMP)
If anyone thinks himself to be religious (piously observant of the external duties of his faith) and does not bridle his tongue but deludes his own heart, this person''s religious service is worthless (futile, barren). [27] External religious worship religion as it is expressed in outward acts that is pure and unblemished in the sight of God the Father is this: to visit and help and care for the orphans and widows in their affliction and need, and to keep oneself unspotted and uncontaminated from the world.
Colossians 2:8 (AMP)
See to it that no one carries you off as spoil or makes you yourselves captive by his so-called philosophy and intellectualism and vain deceit (idle fancies and plain nonsense), following human tradition (men''s ideas of the material rather than the spiritual world), just crude notions following the rudimentary and elemental teachings of the universe and disregarding the teachings of Christ (the Messiah).
Matthew 15:13-14 (AMP)
He answered, Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be torn up by the roots. [14] Let them alone and disregard them; they are blind guides and teachers. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a ditch.
2 Timothy 3:5-7 (AMP)
For although they hold a form of piety (true religion), they deny and reject and are strangers to the power of it their conduct belies the genuineness of their profession. Avoid all such people turn away from them. [6] For among them are those who worm their way into homes and captivate silly and weak-natured and spiritually dwarfed women, loaded down with the burden of their sins and easily swayed and led away by various evil desires and seductive impulses. [7] These weak women will listen to anybody who will teach them; they are forever inquiring and getting information, but are never able to arrive at a recognition and knowledge of the Truth.
John 10:2-5 (AMP)
But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. [3] The watchman opens the door for this man, and the sheep listen to his voice and heed it; and he calls his own sheep by name and brings (leads) them out. [4] When he has brought his own sheep outside, he walks on before them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. [5] They will never on any account follow a stranger, but will run away from him because they do not know the voice of strangers or recognize their call.
Matthew 24:24 (AMP)
For false Christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders so as to deceive and lead astray, if possible, even the elect (God''s chosen ones).
Romans 12:2 (KJV)
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Galatians 6:7-8 (KJV)
Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. [8] For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.
John 4:35 (AMP)
Do you not say, It is still four months until harvest time comes? Look! I tell you, raise your eyes and observe the fields and see how they are already white for harvesting.
Many believers have agendas that they are deliberately hiding from other believers. These are plans they have that fit a personal goal. All personal agendas are sin. The combining of these to words constitute sin. There is no sin in something personal, nor is having an agenda wrong, as long as it is My agenda. When a person commits to following Me, they are surrendering all personal agendas. It is impossible to follow Me with a personal agenda.
Personal agendas are very deceptive and always lead to the death of a vision. There are hidden agendas and then there are very hidden agendas. A very hidden agenda is when the person with a hidden agenda is totally unaware of it themselves. Because they are unaware of it they have an innocence and sincerity that leads innocent people astray, to serve their very hidden agenda. The very hidden agenda is very costly, because it goes undetected much longer than the hidden agenda.
The discovery of the very hidden agenda, takes place in the secret place, where My Spirit will cause an unexplained lack of peace. The lack of My support and help, will cause body and soul to be fatigued, thus causing a crying out, and a searching in the Spirit for the source of the very hidden problem. The very hidden agenda can only be dealt with, by My Spirit, because everyone involved is oblivious to it.
You cannot deal with something unless it is revealed because before revelation, to you it does not exist. Peter had a very hidden agenda when he wanted to stay on the mountain of transfiguration with Moses, Elijah and I, and build three tabernacles. It looked very spiritual and to others and to himself. His very hidden agenda was to keep the supernatural for himself because it had more power than he had ever felt before. Unbeknown to him, he wanted to horde My presence at the expense of the people in the valley. He was no longer concerned about, the blind, the sick and the cripple, the very ones I came for. Peter had developed a very hidden agenda aI lead him down off the mountain to his calling.
Becoming spiritually greedy is a very common problem, that looks so spiritual that it can deceive even the mature believer. Whenever you feel an inner irritation, when a person of lesser spirituality shows up, thinking they will disturb your close encounter with Me, you are greedy. Be very cautious that in longing to have My heart, you also have My eyes, eyes that continually look on the harvest fields.
Some people need deliverance, but instead remain in bondage and re-shape it to conform to a very hidden agenda. Some may fear poverty and become over conservative, calling it good stewardship, which slowly leads to a life of hoarding, and then on to the extreme of becoming a pack rat. As the end of the age comes this may appear as one being well prepared for the end times, but it is a very hidden personal agenda. Refusing deliverance from fear, led to a very hidden personal agenda. A false Stewardship appearing spiritual even to the false steward. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden lust for the opposite sex, so they develop a specialized ministry dealing with the opposite sex and soul power gives them a false anointing. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have very hidden insecurity, so they design a counseling ministry that makes people very dependent on them, giving them the feeling of importance. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden dysfunctional spiritual life so they become super neat and organized on the outside, to cover the inner turmoil. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden need to prove themselves worthy, so the become extremely hard workers, appearing to have a superior dedication to Me, but they are troubled on the inside as Martha was. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden desire to have a particular person as a mate and will transform into an angel of light until they have a marriage license. What seemed to be heaven suddenly turns to hell in weeks. Looks great, sounds great, but it has a very hidden agenda.
Some have a very hidden need for the applause of men, so they practice and develop a great performance ministry causing them to always ask, "how did I do". Not with a concern for the hearer but with a need for the applause of men. They look great, sound great, but they have a very hidden agenda.
In these days the very elect will be the only ones that will not enter into deception. The deception will be so great, not because of hidden agendas but because of very hidden agendas. Where the deceiver has no knowledge that he or she is deceiving. The very hidden agenda stems from a persons refusal to submit an area of their personal life to Me. Therefore it becomes a very hidden personal agenda. The very elect are those who know My voice, and obey it without question or hesitation. Only those, who daily spend time in the secret place, will know My voice and do as I say, and not be deceived.

I AM GOD OF THE EXHAUSTED
I AM GOD OF THE EXHAUSTED
The strength of the spirit always outlasts the body and soul. The body gets tired when physical energy is depleted, physical energy comes from good nutrition, however when the soul is tired, the body also becomes weary. Good nutrition will not energize the soul, because it does not feed on physical food. The soul gets it's energy from the environment that surrounds it.
If the soul is immersed in negative it will quickly be depleted of it's energy. On the contrary, the reverse will happen if it is bathed in a positive atmosphere. Positive and negative, is all the non believers, have to work with. However the believer received the living Spirit of Christ at new birth, which gives the soul a supernatural feeding ground called the Spirit.
The natural man must strive to stay in a positive attitude in order to energize his soul and be free from depression. The believer on the other hand must stay in My presence and feed from My presence. The believer can no longer return to a positive atmosphere for soul energy, because he is a new creature.
The believer can still get tired in his soul, by being surrounded by negative, hours at a time. When the mind picks up continual negative messages all day, it depresses the emotions as the will becomes too weary to fight. The remedy is found in a supernatural feeding ground, and beginning to feed from the Spirit. My presence is the green pastures where all believers must feed their soul.
As the end of the age comes, tremendous amounts of negative will fill the atmosphere. Lack is negative and the world will have plenty of it, but by taking every thought captive, the negative is cut off before it can reach the soul. Once the negative reaches the soul, vocal praise is needed to reverse the damage. If the damage is bad enough intercession is needed, and if depression has set in, then I must pray through you using a heavenly language to break it's grip on your soul.
Be vigilant especially during the mundane times, when nothing is apparently happening. These are the times that thoughts are not guarded and negative can slip through. I cannot capture your thoughts, if you do not bring them to Me. When you are physically tired you are also vulnerable to negative attack, because your resistance is down, this is the time for worshipful rest, falling asleep in My presence and reading of My promises.
Learn the signs of weariness and become less vulnerable to attack, by saying no to that one last extra effort that will push you to exhaustion. Saying, "Time to quit", is a good and wise decision, when you recognize the signs of weariness. It allows for a much steadier walk with Me and a better testimony to the world. Pushing beyond the limits is not pleasing to Me when it comes between us, because the negative has exhausted your soul.
Hebrews 4:6-11 (KJV)
Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: [7] Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. [8] For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. [9] There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. [10] For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. [11] Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Galatians 6:9 (AMP)
And let us not lose heart and grow weary and faint in acting nobly and doing right, for in due time and at the appointed season we shall reap, if we do not loosen and relax our courage and faint.

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.
Matthew 11:28-30 (KJV)
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. [29] Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. [30] For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
Psalm 42:5-11 (KJV)
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. [6] O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar. [7] Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. [8] Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. [9] I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? [10] As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? [11] Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psalm 23:2-3 (KJV)
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. [3] He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
The strength of the spirit always outlasts the body and soul. The body gets tired when physical energy is depleted, physical energy comes from good nutrition, however when the soul is tired, the body also becomes weary.

[9] I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy? [10] As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God? [11] Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psalm 23:2-3 (KJV)
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. [3] He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
I AM GOD OF THE EXHAUSTED
The strength of the spirit always outlasts the body and soul. The body gets tired when physical energy is depleted, physical energy comes from good nutrition, however when the soul is tired, the body also becomes weary. Good nutrition will not energize the soul, because it does not feed on physical food. The soul gets it's energy from the environment that surrounds it.
If the soul is immersed in negative it will quickly be depleted of it's energy. On the contrary, the reverse will happen if it is bathed in a positive atmosphere. Positive and negative, is all the non believers, have to work with. However the believer received the living Spirit of Christ at new birth, which gives the soul a supernatural feeding ground called the Spirit.
The natural man must strive to stay in a positive attitude in order to energize his soul and be free from depression. The believer on the other hand must stay in My presence and feed from My presence. The believer can no longer return to a positive atmosphere for soul energy, because he is a new creature.
The believer can still get tired in his soul, by being surrounded by negative, hours at a time. When the mind picks up continual negative messages all day, it depresses the emotions as the will becomes too weary to fight. The remedy is found in a supernatural feeding ground, and beginning to feed from the Spirit. My presence is the green pastures where all believers must feed their soul.
As the end of the age comes, tremendous amounts of negative will fill the atmosphere. Lack is negative and the world will have plenty of it, but by taking every thought captive, the negative is cut off before it can reach the soul. Once the negative reaches the soul, vocal praise is needed to reverse the damage. If the damage is bad enough intercession is needed, and if depression has set in, then I must pray through you using a heavenly language to break it's grip on your soul.
Be vigilant especially during the mundane times, when nothing is apparently happening. These are the times that thoughts are not guarded and negative can slip through. I cannot capture your thoughts, if you do not bring them to Me. When you are physically tired you are also vulnerable to negative attack, because your resistance is down, this is the time for worshipful rest, falling asleep in My presence and reading of My promises.
Learn the signs of weariness and become less vulnerable to attack, by saying no to that one last extra effort that will push you to exhaustion. Saying, "Time to quit", is a good and wise decision, when you recognize the signs of weariness. It allows for a much steadier walk with Me and a better testimony to the world. Pushing beyond the limits is not pleasing to Me when it comes between us, because the negative has exhausted your soul.
Hebrews 4:6-11 (KJV)
Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: [7] Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts. [8] For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. [9] There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. [10] For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his. [11] Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

Psalm 42:5-11 (KJV)
Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. [6] O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar. [7] Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me. [8] Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. [9] I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

IF YOU KNOW THE COMBINATION AND DON'T OPEN THE DOOR FOR OTHERS I WILL...
IF YOU KNOW THE COMBINATION AND DON'T OPEN THE DOOR FOR OTHERS I WILL...
Put you back in prison and throw away the keys. I hold you responsible to do to others what I have done for you. This is not an option. Your forgiveness and deliverance must flow like a river, not stagnate in a pond. All that you have freely received, must be freely given. Whatever I have delivered you from, must be passed on by delivering others.
Many have been delivered from drugs and alcohol abuse, but some forget and some pretend it was never part of their life. They act as if those who are still bound are the scum of the earth. These hypocrites will be returned to the tormentor, for they will be judged as they are judging.
Some men I have freed from sexual addictions and they are ashamed of their past which is not bad, however to deny and pretend they have never been there, is a major offense to Me. To condemn and point at others that are bound, when they themselves are not far from their recent deliverance is a sure way to be rebound 7 times stronger.
Sexual addictions, far surpass all addictions of the earth. The great whore is now inviting all men everywhere into her bed of fornication. The women, are not at all exempt from her spirit, she is entering girls, and grown women alike. She has taken over the clothing industry, and the advertising industry, she owns the entertainment industry and has fully invaded the all medias. She has free access to cell phones, tv and radio and especially the internet.
Her sexual attacks are taking place in the minds of men everywhere, regardless of race, color, or creed. There are no boundaries with her. She has declared war against the human race and seduction is her weapon of choice. Without My spirit all people from kings to paupers will climb into her bed. It is only the religious fool and the hypocrite, that pretends this all consuming battle, is not raging.
Pornography is her weapon of mass destruction, and she has poured the instantly addicting drink over the whole earth. I will wage a great battle against her and cast her down as My servant Jehu did to Jezebel. I will burn her up as I did to her in Sodom. I will use My army that I have delivered from her lustful grip, to deliver others and I will restore their virginity. I will stir up their pure minds and in the midst of deprivation and reprobation. I will have a pure church that will hate her fornications and adulteries.
I will will forever destroy her and her bed and all that remain in her bed. You are to stand against her by taking every thought captive and refusing to be seduced by way of your eyes. Turn instantly from those things that excite your passions or fire in your bosom will surely burn you up.
To My women and handmaidens I plead, do not assist in the seductions of great whore in your manner of dress, and body language. Present yourself to Me, as My bride, for I will not marry a whore. My bride has been cleansed from her whoring ways and has been made whiter than the snow by My blood.
The whore's power is far stronger than your will power. If you play in her bed and think you can escape, you are already trapped and worse of all you do not know it. If you are toying with her, for the thrill of temptation itself, she has a firm grip on you. She knows you are hers for the taking and when she beckons you, you will be helpless to withstand her temptations. Many pastors and leaders are secretly in her bed and bound and will be burned with her. I am exposing whoever is stumbling or abusing My little ones before they can do further damage.
Know this, I have given you the keys to your freedom but if your longing to satisfy your lust is stronger than your longing to be free, you will never use them. If you stay in my presence and obey My voice your deliverance takes only seconds. But you must realize, staying delivered, is always dependent on staying in My presence and continual obedience.
Your new found freedom is your platform to stand on, so you can pull others to their freedom. It is never an elevated position to point down and condemn those that are still bound. In the day you do that, I will throw you off the platform, back into the pit, and you will be bound 7 times worse.
Now go and, do unto others as you would that they do to you, set men and women free as I have done for you and never condemn.
Matthew 18:23-35 (AMP)
Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a human king who wished to settle accounts with his attendants. [24] When he began the accounting, one was brought to him who owed him 10,000 talents probably about $10,000,000, [25] And because he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and his children and everything that he possessed, and payment to be made. [26] So the attendant fell on his knees, begging him, Have patience with me and I will pay you everything. [27] And his master''s heart was moved with compassion, and he released him and forgave him cancelling the debt. [28] But that same attendant, as he went out, found one of his fellow attendants who owed him a hundred denarii about twenty dollars; and he caught him by the throat and said, Pay what you owe! [29] So his fellow attendant fell down and begged him earnestly, Give me time, and I will pay you all ! [30] But he was unwilling, and he went out and had him put in prison till he should pay the debt. [31] When his fellow attendants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and told everything that had taken place to their master. [32] Then his master called him and said to him, You contemptible and wicked attendant! I forgave and cancelled all that great debt of yours because you begged me to. [33] And should you not have had pity and mercy on your fellow attendant, as I had pity and mercy on you? [34] And in wrath his master turned him over to the torturers (the jailers), till he should pay all that he owed. [35] So also My heavenly Father will deal with every one of you if you do not freely forgive your brother from your heart his offenses.
Matthew 6:14-15 (KJV)
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: [15] But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Revelation 17:1-6 (KJV)
And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: [2] With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. [3] So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. [4] And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: [5] And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH . [6] And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
Revelation 17:15-18 (AMP)
And the angel further said to me, The waters that you observed, where the harlot is seated, are races and multitudes and nations and dialects (languages). [16] And the ten horns that you saw, they and the beast will be the very ones to hate the harlot (the idolatrous woman); they will make her cheerless (bereaved, desolate), and they will strip her and eat up her flesh and utterly consume her with fire. [17] For God has put it into their hearts to carry out His own purpose by acting in harmony in surrendering their royal power and authority to the beast, until the prophetic words (intentions and promises) of God shall be fulfilled. [18] And the woman that you saw is herself the great city which dominates and controls the rulers and the leaders of the earth.
Revelation 19:1-4,7-9 (AMP)
AFTER THIS I heard what sounded like a mighty shout of a great crowd in heaven, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! Salvation and glory (splendor and majesty) and power (dominion and authority) belong to our God! [2] Because His judgments (His condemnation and punishment, His sentences of doom) are true and sound and just and upright. He has judged (convicted, pronounced sentence, and doomed) the great and notorious harlot (idolatress) who corrupted and demoralized and poisoned the earth with her lewdness and adultery (idolatry). And He has avenged (visited on her the penalty for) the blood of His servants at her hand. [3] And again they shouted, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! The smoke of her burning shall continue to ascend forever and ever (through the eternities of the eternities). [4] Then the twenty-four elders of the heavenly Sanhedrin and the four living creatures fell prostrate and worshiped paying divine honors to God, Who sits on the throne, saying, Amen! Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! [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.
Luke 11:24-26 (AMP)
When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it roams through waterless places in search of a place of rest (release, refreshment, ease); and finding none it says, I will go back to my house from which I came. [25] And when it arrives, it finds the place swept and put in order and furnished and decorated. [26] And it goes and brings other spirits, seven of them, more evil than itself, and they enter in, settle down, and dwell there; and the last state of that person is worse than the first.
Revelation 21:1-4 (AMP)
THEN I saw a new sky (heaven) and a new earth, for the former sky and the former earth had passed away (vanished), and there no longer existed any sea. [2] And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, all arrayed like a bride beautified and adorned for her husband; [3] Then I heard a mighty voice from the throne and I perceived its distinct words, saying, See! The abode of God is with men, and He will live (encamp, tent) among them; and they shall be His people, and God shall personally be with them and be their God. [4] God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more, neither shall there be anguish (sorrow and mourning) nor grief nor pain any more, for the old conditions and the former order of things have passed away.
Luke 6:37 (KJV)
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
Matthew 18:23-35 (AMP)
Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a human king who wished to settle accounts with his attendants. [24] When he began the accounting, one was brought to him who owed him 10,000 talents probably about $10,000,000, [25] And because he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and his children and everything that he possessed, and payment to be made.

[33] And should you not have had pity and mercy on your fellow attendant, as I had pity and mercy on you? [34] And in wrath his master turned him over to the torturers (the jailers), till he should pay all that he owed. [35] So also My heavenly Father will deal with every one of you if you do not freely forgive your brother from your heart his offenses.
Luke 6:37 (AMP)
Judge not neither pronouncing judgment nor subjecting to censure, and you will not be judged; do not condemn and pronounce guilty, and you will not be condemned and pronounced guilty; acquit and forgive and release (give up resentment, let it drop), and you will be acquitted and forgiven and released.
Matthew 7:12 (AMP)
So then, whatever you desire that others would do to and for you, even so do also to and for them, for this is (sums up) the Law and the Prophets.
Put you back in prison and throw away the keys. I hold you responsible to do to others what I have done for you. This is not an option. Your forgiveness and deliverance must flow like a river, not stagnate in a pond. All that you have freely received, must be freely given.

Now go and, do unto others as you would that they do to you, set men and women free as I have done for you and never condemn.

[31] When his fellow attendants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and told everything that had taken place to their master. [32] Then his master called him and said to him, You contemptible and wicked attendant! I forgave and cancelled all that great debt of yours because you begged me to. [33] And should you not have had pity and mercy on your fellow attendant, as I had pity and mercy on you? [34] And in wrath his master turned him over to the torturers (the jailers), till he should pay all that he owed. [35] So also My heavenly Father will deal with every one of you if you do not freely forgive your brother from your heart his offenses.
Matthew 6:14-15 (KJV)
For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: [15] But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Revelation 17:1-6 (KJV)
And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: [2] With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. [3] So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns. [4] And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: [5] And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH . [6] And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
Revelation 17:15-18 (AMP)
And the angel further said to me, The waters that you observed, where the harlot is seated, are races and multitudes and nations and dialects (languages). [16] And the ten horns that you saw, they and the beast will be the very ones to hate the harlot (the idolatrous woman); they will make her cheerless (bereaved, desolate), and they will strip her and eat up her flesh and utterly consume her with fire. [17] For God has put it into their hearts to carry out His own purpose by acting in harmony in surrendering their royal power and authority to the beast, until the prophetic words (intentions and promises) of God shall be fulfilled. [18] And the woman that you saw is herself the great city which dominates and controls the rulers and the leaders of the earth.
Revelation 19:1-4,7-9 (AMP)
AFTER THIS I heard what sounded like a mighty shout of a great crowd in heaven, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! Salvation and glory (splendor and majesty) and power (dominion and authority) belong to our God! [2] Because His judgments (His condemnation and punishment, His sentences of doom) are true and sound and just and upright. He has judged (convicted, pronounced sentence, and doomed) the great and notorious harlot (idolatress) who corrupted and demoralized and poisoned the earth with her lewdness and adultery (idolatry). And He has avenged (visited on her the penalty for) the blood of His servants at her hand. [3] And again they shouted, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! The smoke of her burning shall continue to ascend forever and ever (through the eternities of the eternities). [4] Then the twenty-four elders of the heavenly Sanhedrin and the four living creatures fell prostrate and worshiped paying divine honors to God, Who sits on the throne, saying, Amen! Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! [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.
Luke 11:24-26 (AMP)
When the unclean spirit has gone out of a person, it roams through waterless places in search of a place of rest (release, refreshment, ease); and finding none it says, I will go back to my house from which I came. [25] And when it arrives, it finds the place swept and put in order and furnished and decorated. [26] And it goes and brings other spirits, seven of them, more evil than itself, and they enter in, settle down, and dwell there; and the last state of that person is worse than the first.
Revelation 21:1-4 (AMP)
THEN I saw a new sky (heaven) and a new earth, for the former sky and the former earth had passed away (vanished), and there no longer existed any sea. [2] And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, all arrayed like a bride beautified and adorned for her husband; [3] Then I heard a mighty voice from the throne and I perceived its distinct words, saying, See! The abode of God is with men, and He will live (encamp, tent) among them; and they shall be His people, and God shall personally be with them and be their God. [4] God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more, neither shall there be anguish (sorrow and mourning) nor grief nor pain any more, for the old conditions and the former order of things have passed away.
Luke 6:37 (KJV)
Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:
Matthew 18:23-35 (AMP)
Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a human king who wished to settle accounts with his attendants. [24] When he began the accounting, one was brought to him who owed him 10,000 talents probably about $10,000,000, [25] And because he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and his children and everything that he possessed, and payment to be made. [26] So the attendant fell on his knees, begging him, Have patience with me and I will pay you everything. [27] And his master''s heart was moved with compassion, and he released him and forgave him cancelling the debt. [28] But that same attendant, as he went out, found one of his fellow attendants who owed him a hundred denarii about twenty dollars; and he caught him by the throat and said, Pay what you owe! [29] So his fellow attendant fell down and begged him earnestly, Give me time, and I will pay you all ! [30] But he was unwilling, and he went out and had him put in prison till he should pay the debt. [31] When his fellow attendants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and told everything that had taken place to their master. [32] Then his master called him and said to him, You contemptible and wicked attendant! I forgave and cancelled all that great debt of yours because you begged me to. [33] And should you not have had pity and mercy on your fellow attendant, as I had pity and mercy on you? [34] And in wrath his master turned him over to the torturers (the jailers), till he should pay all that he owed. [35] So also My heavenly Father will deal with every one of you if you do not freely forgive your brother from your heart his offenses.
Luke 6:37 (AMP)
Judge not neither pronouncing judgment nor subjecting to censure, and you will not be judged; do not condemn and pronounce guilty, and you will not be condemned and pronounced guilty; acquit and forgive and release (give up resentment, let it drop), and you will be acquitted and forgiven and released.
Matthew 7:12 (AMP)
So then, whatever you desire that others would do to and for you, even so do also to and for them, for this is (sums up) the Law and the Prophets.

IT'S TIME TO MOVE because the safe place isn't safe anymore!
IT'S TIME TO MOVE BECAUSE THE SAFE PLACE ISN'T SAFE ANYMORE!
I did not say to run or to panic, but move. Societies safe places are all beginning to crumble and cave in. Western Christian standards are so low that almost no foundation, is founded on the rock. I have My army coming into formation, standing on the solid rock, while the Church at large is oblivious to the sand under their house's foundation. They are unable to read the signs of the times and will be caught unaware.
The church's prayer closet has been turned into an entertainment center, pushing out the sounds of the cracking and creaking of their house, as it begins to tip and slide off it's foundation. Turning up the music, adding more lights, turning on the smoke machines, and constructing beautiful backdrops, does not even resemble, the repentance in sackcloth and ashes, that I asked for. The weeping and travailing in intercession is strange and unacceptable in the church on sand. They say,"please sir, your crying is making people uncomfortable, please do that somewhere else".
Listen to their language of denial; "I don't want to talk about it", "Get out of here with the doom and gloom", "America is strong and will recover as always", "Look at how the market bounced back", "I just got this new video game, it's unreal", "Who do you think will be eliminated on tonights American Idol"? "What about that game last night, did you see that catch"? "Can we talk about something else please"? "Oh, they been saying that for years". "America fall? never"!
Those who refuse to come to the table I have prepared on earth, will miss the table in the kingdom. I have prepared a table before you, in the presence of your enemies. It is not a table for your enemies, but for you and Me to sup together and have sweet communication. While the enemy watches you, in the secret place with Me, he has no idea of the power I am transferring to you, for his defeat.
To those who do not move now, I will send a strong delusion. They have chosen to believe a lie so long and have refused My invitation to the prayer closet, so many times, that it is now delusion time. I am calling My people to move out of earthly reality, into kingdom reality. You are to move completely away from, 'recovery as before, thinking', into a 'all things new', reality. Begin moving, to a whole new lifestyle, both in the natural as well as the spiritual.
This new place, is where all thinking, is out of the box. All conversation is in the realm of impossible. When their is no more, in the natural world, people quit, exclaiming, " We ran out, so we can go no further...". In the supernatural world there is always more. Just behind the veil, a never ending abundance of supplies is stacked up. Only eyes that have eye salve, applied in the secret place, can see through the vail.
Do not try to preserve anything from the past, it will only drag you down in the future. Noah had no reference points to work from, only the daily blueprint I gave him. As it was in his day, so will it be in these days, with you. You will not go to the internet, but to My world wide web of glory, where any anointed eye can see through the vail and pick from the fully stocked shelves.
Anyone who continues to refuse My invitation, to enter the secret place, will move into a strong delusion, one that will doom their soul as they will be made to believe and follow a lie. Which ever path you take it's moving time.
2 Peter 3:3-14
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. [5] For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: [6] Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: [7] But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. [8] But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. [9] The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. [10] But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. [11] Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, [12] Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? [13] Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. [14] Wherefore, beloved, seeing that ye look for such things, be diligent that ye may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.
Isaiah 32:9-20 (AMP)
Rise up, you women who are at ease! Hear my Isaiah''s voice, you confident and careless daughters! Listen to what I am saying! [10] In little more than a year you will be shaken with anxiety, you careless and complacent women; for the vintage will fail, and the ingathering will not come. [11] Tremble, you women who are at ease! Shudder with fear, you complacent ones! Strip yourselves bare and gird sackcloth upon your loins in grief! [12] They shall beat upon their breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine, [13] For the land of my people growing over with thorns and briers--yes, for all the houses of joy in the joyous city. [14] For the palace shall be forsaken, the populous city shall be deserted; the hill and the watchtower shall become dens for wild animals endlessly, a joy for wild donkeys, a pasture for flocks, [15] Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, and the fruitful field is valued as a forest. [16] Then justice will dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness (moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation) will abide in the fruitful field. [17] And the effect of righteousness will be peace internal and external, and the result of righteousness will be quietness and confident trust forever. [18] My people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting-places. [19] But it the wrath of the Lord shall hail, coming down overpoweringly on the forest the army of the Assyrians, and the capital city shall be utterly humbled and laid prostrate. [20] Happy and fortunate are you who cast your seed upon all waters when the river overflows its banks; for the seed will sink into the mud and when the waters subside, the plant will spring up; you will find it after many days and reap an abundant harvest, you who safely send forth the ox and the donkey to range freely.
Esther 4:1-4 (KJV)
When Mordecai perceived all that was done, Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried with a loud and a bitter cry; [2] And came even before the king's gate: for none might enter into the king's gate clothed with sackcloth. [3] And in every province, whithersoever the king's commandment and his decree came, there was great mourning among the Jews, and fasting, and weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes. [4] So Esther's maids and her chamberlains came and told it her. Then was the queen exceedingly grieved; and she sent raiment to clothe Mordecai, and to take away his sackcloth from him: but he received it not.
2 Thessalonians 2:8-15 (KJV)
And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: [9] Even him , whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, [10] And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved. [11] And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie: [12] That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. [13] But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: [14] Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. [15] Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
Matthew 24:38-39 (AMP)
For just as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the very day when Noah went into the ark, [39] And they did not know or understand until the flood came and swept them all away--so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Isaiah 43:18-19 (KJV)
Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old. [19] Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
2 Chronicles 7:14-15,19-22 (AMP)
If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves, pray, seek, crave, and require of necessity My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land. [15] Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to prayer offered in this place. [19] But if you people turn away and forsake My statutes and My commandments which I have set before you and go and serve other gods and worship them, [20] Then will I pluck Israel up by the roots out of My land which I have given them; and this house which I have hallowed for My Name will I cast out of My sight, and will make it to be a proverb and a byword among all nations. [21] And this house, which was so high, shall be an astonishment to everyone passing it, and they will say, Why has the Lord done thus to this land and to this house? [22] Then men will say, Because they forsook the Lord, the God of their fathers, Who brought them out of Egypt, and they laid hold of other gods and worshiped and served them; therefore has He brought all this evil upon them.
Revelation 3:19-22 (KJV)
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. [20] Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. [21] To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. [22] He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Revelation 3:17-18 (AMP)
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.
I did not say to run or to panic, but move. Societies safe places are all beginning to crumble and cave in. Western Christian standards are so low that almost no foundation, is founded on the rock.

LAST DAYS LOVE AND DOUBT
LAST DAYS LOVE AND DOUBT
One of the signs of the times will be the love of many waxing cold. The further people Move from the warmth of My love, the colder they get. Millions will get so far away that life will no longer be considered valuable and everybody and anybody, will be expendable, if they become a hinderance.
Babies and the elderly are always a bother to some. Abortion will be at an all time high. The elderly's worth will be counted in dollars and cents. If it costs to much to keep them alive, then kill them, but no one will call it by name, murder, because that may offend someone.
But the good news is I always have a countermeasure to what ever the world can produce. As the world moves further away I have a remnant that will move real close to Me and their fellow believers. They will not fear because they will be fully engulfed in My agape love. This love will anger the cold hearted, forcing some into a frenzy. My love will become extremely offensive and threatening because it cannot be threatened. The more hate they throw at it the more love gets thrown back.
My love shed abroad, will produce tremendous conviction, creating such a severe hatred toward My body, that I will come to the aid of My children with miracles and My holy angels. My love has increase in many hearts even now, in preparation for what is ahead. You cannot comprehend the depth of love I have for you. You have no concept how much I loved My only begotten son. The pain felt here caused by the tearing apart of the eternal trio, the dayn He moved to earth to become a man, was indescribable.
As a mortal man you cannot understand eternity, or unconditional love, therefore you can never fully appreciate the depth of love it took for Me to tear Him away from the eternal Godhead and offer him up, for your sake. For you to doubt the intensity of My love for you, has all of heaven in bewildered. Not a single being in glory can comprehend the human doubting of My love. If you could only comprehend the emense price that we paid to redeem you, you might begin to understand why the kingdom is so insulted by human doubt.
To doubt My love is to reject it, causing a moving away from it, which in turn starts the waxing cold process. To doubt My love now is dangerous due to the powerful influence of the coldness around you. A single doubt can start you on a high speed, downward spin, drawing you into the worldly coldness, where life is of little value.
The sin of doubt sounds mild to the human ear, but it is the universal sin that will dam the human soul to hell. It is considered the master sin here, for it is the foundation of all other sins. If you only knew what extent we go to, to save and protect you every single day of your life, you would never be tempted to doubt again. I never leave your side, not even for a moment, for the moment I did Satan would have you killed. He has easy access to every unprotected human and has the power and desire to destroy them all.
I have placed a hedge of protection around you to keep you, in all your ways. The more time you spend with Me the more you will realize the emencity of My love for you. I attempt to talk to you a hundred times a day but you are still not fully recognizing My voice. You are never out of My sight. You cost heaven far to much to let you out of our sight.
You must make every effort to get to know Me intimately, so that it becomes impossible for you to ever doubt My love for you. Give Me your time and I will know that I have your heart, and My last days love, will defeat the worlds last days hatred as My kingdom is ushered in.
John 3:16-18 (AMP)
For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He even gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life. [17] For God did not send the Son into the world in order to judge (to reject, to condemn, to pass sentence on) the world, but that the world might find salvation and be made safe and sound through Him. [18] He who believes in Him who clings to, trusts in, relies on Him is not judged he who trusts in Him never comes up for judgment; for him there is no rejection, no condemnation--he incurs no damnation; but he who does not believe (cleave to, rely on, trust in Him) is judged already he has already been convicted and has already received his sentence because he has not believed in and trusted in the name of the only begotten Son of God. He is condemned for refusing to let his trust rest in Christ''s name.
Mark 11:23 (KJV)
For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
Mark 6:6 (AMP)
And He marveled because of their unbelief (their lack of faith in Him). And He went about among the surrounding villages and continued teaching.
James 1:5-8 (AMP)
If any of you is deficient in wisdom, let him ask of the giving God Who gives to everyone liberally and ungrudgingly, without reproaching or faultfinding, and it will be given him. [6] Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind. [7] For truly, let not such a person imagine that he will receive anything he asks for from the Lord, [8] For being as he is a man of two minds (hesitating, dubious, irresolute), he is unstable and unreliable and uncertain about everything he thinks, feels, decides.
Hebrews 11:6 (AMP)
But without faith it is impossible to please and be satisfactory to Him. For whoever would come near to God must necessarily believe that God exists and that He is the rewarder of those who earnestly and diligently seek Him out.
Romans 8:29-39 (KJV)
For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. [30] Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified. [31] What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? [32] He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things? [33] Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? It is God that justifieth. [34] Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us. [35] Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? [36] As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. [37] Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. [38] For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, [39] Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
1 Corinthians 13:1-13 (KJV)
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. [2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. [3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor , and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. [4] Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, [5] Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; [6] Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; [7] Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. [8] Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. [9] For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. [10] But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. [11] When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. [12] For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. [13] And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
Matthew 24:9-14 (KJV)
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. [10] And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. [11] And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. [12] And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. [13] But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. [14] And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
One of the signs of the times will be the love of many waxing cold. The further people Move from the warmth of My love, the colder they get. Millions will get so far away that life will no longer be considered valuable and everybody and anybody, will be expendable, if they become a hinderance.
Babies and the elderly are always a bother to some. Abortion will be at an all time high. The elderly's worth will be counted in dollars and cents. If it costs to much to keep them alive, then kill them, but no one will call it by name, murder, because that may offend someone.
But the good news is I always have a countermeasure to what ever the world can produce. As the world moves further away I have a remnant that will move real close to Me and their fellow believers. They will not fear because they will be fully engulfed in My agape love. This love will anger the cold hearted, forcing some into a frenzy. My love will become extremely offensive and threatening because it cannot be threatened. The more hate they throw at it the more love gets thrown back.
My love shed abroad, will produce tremendous conviction, creating such a severe hatred toward My body, that I will come to the aid of My children with miracles and My holy angels. My love has increase in many hearts even now, in preparation for what is ahead. You cannot comprehend the depth of love I have for you. You have no concept how much I loved My only begotten son.

WHAT DID I TELL YOU TO DO?
WHAT DID I TELL YOU TO DO?
There are times I must curtail your zeal. There are so many things happening in My kingdom, that a zealous child will involve himself in so many things, that it works against the kingdom rather than for it. It does three negative things. First it begins to rob Me of My time with you, and that I will not allow. Second it begins to sap your strength because of your lack of time with Me, which can lead to depression. Third it robs others of opportunity to exercise their gifts and work in
My kingdom.
You can enjoy, rejoice with, offer input and pray for all the things in the kingdom, however, I have called you and each of My children,b to specific tasks in My kingdom. If each will stick to that task and do it with all their might, the church will mature so much faster. So many of My children are undisciplined and are scattered because they cannot focus long enough to hear My voice or follow instructions to the letter.
With a background of instant everything, they have no patience. Remember Martha, I had to rebuke her zeal. She attacked Mary's ability to focus on Me. She was zealous to get things done for Me, but the reason I was there was to minister to whomever would hear. Martha's zeal caused her to miss My words of life, leaving her a troubled woman. If you will stick to what I've call you to do, your life will be so much more fruitful and satisfying.
You are not called to save the world, only the part I gave you. Remember I want quality not quantity. If I have quality I will have quantity. Quantity only, produces children that are carried about by every wind of doctrine. I need those who will disciple as well as those who win the lost. I gave the commission to preach the gospel, but I also said to disciple all nations. This takes time and patience and especially focus.
Becoming too busy doing good, is an enemy trick used to trip up the most dedicated workers. He uses it to steal the leaders time, causing loss of focus, leaving many new borns, disillusioned and lost in the shuffle. If I do not curb your zeal you will begin to push people, instead of lead them. They will burn out serving your zeal, rather than falling in love with Me. People do not fall in love under pressure. My spirit draws, calls, and invites, I never push, intimidate, or manipulate, that's the enemy's tactics.
I said, I will build My church, and in so doing, each of My children are to be builders together with Me, according to My master blueprint. I love your zeal, so do not take offense at My rebuke, I am simply channeling it so you can reach the maximum potential I have placed in you. Do not let zeal eat you up, but allow Me to channel it where it will do the most damage to the kingdom of darkness.
2 Corinthians 10:13-18 (AMP)
We, on the other hand, will not boast beyond our legitimate province and proper limit, but will keep within the limits of our commission which God has allotted us as our measuring line and which reaches and includes even you. [14] For we are not overstepping the limits of our province and stretching beyond our ability to reach, as though we reached not (had no legitimate mission) to you, for we were the very first to come even as far as to you with the good news (the Gospel) of Christ. [15] We do not boast therefore, beyond our proper limit, over other men''s labors, but we have the hope and confident expectation that as your faith continues to grow, our field among you may be greatly enlarged, still within the limits of our commission, [16] So that we may even preach the Gospel in lands lying beyond you, without making a boast of work already done in another man''s sphere of activity before we came on the scene. [17] However, let him who boasts and glories boast and glory in the Lord. [18] For it is not the man who praises and commends himself who is approved and accepted, but it is the person whom the Lord accredits and commends.
John 21:18-22 (AMP)
I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, when you were young you girded yourself put on your own belt or girdle and you walked about wherever you pleased to go. But when you grow old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will put a girdle around you and carry you where you do not wish to go. [19] He said this to indicate by what kind of death Peter would glorify God. And after this, He said to him, Follow Me! [20] But Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved, following--the one who also had leaned back on His breast at the supper and had said, Lord, who is it that is going to betray You? [21] When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, Lord, what about this man? [22] Jesus said to him, If I want him to stay (survive, live) until I come, what is that to you? What concern is it of yours? You follow Me!
Acts 16:6-15 (KJV)
Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia, [7] After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not. [8] And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas. [9] And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us. [10] And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them. [11] Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis; [12] And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days. [13] And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither. [14] And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us : whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. [15] And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us , saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there . And she constrained us.
John 21:15-18 (AMP)
When they had eaten, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these others do--with reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion, as one loves the Father? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You that I have deep, instinctive, personal affection for You, as for a close friend. He said to him, Feed My lambs. [16] Again He said to him the second time, Simon, son of John, do you love Me with reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion, as one loves the Father? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You that I have a deep, instinctive, personal affection for You, as for a close friend. He said to him, Shepherd (tend) My sheep. [17] He said to him the third time, Simon, son of John, do you love Me with a deep, instinctive, personal affection for Me, as for a close friend? Peter was grieved (was saddened and hurt) that He should ask him the third time, Do you love Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You know everything; You know that I love You that I have a deep, instinctive, personal affection for You, as for a close friend. Jesus said to him, Feed My sheep.
1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (AMP)
Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run your race that you may lay hold of the prize and make it yours. [25] Now every athlete who goes into training conducts himself temperately and restricts himself in all things. They do it to win a wreath that will soon wither, but we do it to receive a crown of eternal blessedness that cannot wither. [26] Therefore I do not run uncertainly (without definite aim). I do not box like one beating the air and striking without an adversary. [27] But like a boxer I buffet my body handle it roughly, discipline it by hardships and subdue it, for fear that after proclaiming to others the Gospel and things pertaining to it, I myself should become unfit not stand the test, be unapproved and rejected as a counterfeit.
1 Corinthians 16:15-18 (KJV)
I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) [16] That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us , and laboureth. [17] I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied. [18] For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
Philippians 3:13-14 (KJV)
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do , forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, [14] I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 4:1-2 (AMP)
I THEREFORE, the prisoner for the Lord, appeal to and beg you to walk (lead a life) worthy of the divine calling to which you have been called with behavior that is a credit to the summons to God''s service, [2] Living as becomes you with complete lowliness of mind (humility) and meekness (unselfishness, gentleness, mildness), with patience, bearing with one another and making allowances because you love one another.
1 Thessalonians 5:21-24 (KJV)
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. [22] Abstain from all appearance of evil. [23] And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. [24] Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 (AMP)
But test and prove all things until you can recognize what is good; to that hold fast. [22] Abstain from evil shrink from it and keep aloof from it in whatever form or whatever kind it may be.
Matthew 28:19-20 (AMP)
Go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, [20] Teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you, and behold, I am with you all the days (perpetually, uniformly, and on every occasion), to the very close and consummation of the age. Amen (so let it be).
There are times I must curtail your zeal. There are so many things happening in My kingdom, that a zealous child will involve himself in so many things, that it works against the kingdom rather than for it. It does three negative things.

But when you grow old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will put a girdle around you and carry you where you do not wish to go. [19] He said this to indicate by what kind of death Peter would glorify God. And after this, He said to him, Follow Me! [20] But Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved, following--the one who also had leaned back on His breast at the supper and had said, Lord, who is it that is going to betray You? [21] When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, Lord, what about this man? [22] Jesus said to him, If I want him to stay (survive, live) until I come, what is that to you? What concern is it of yours? You follow Me!
Acts 16:6-15 (KJV)
Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia, [7] After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not. [8] And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas. [9] And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us. [10] And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them. [11] Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis; [12] And from thence to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days. [13] And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither. [14] And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, which worshipped God, heard us : whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul. [15] And when she was baptized, and her household, she besought us , saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there . And she constrained us.
John 21:15-18 (AMP)
When they had eaten, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these others do--with reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion, as one loves the Father? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You that I have deep, instinctive, personal affection for You, as for a close friend. He said to him, Feed My lambs. [16] Again He said to him the second time, Simon, son of John, do you love Me with reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion, as one loves the Father? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You that I have a deep, instinctive, personal affection for You, as for a close friend. He said to him, Shepherd (tend) My sheep. [17] He said to him the third time, Simon, son of John, do you love Me with a deep, instinctive, personal affection for Me, as for a close friend? Peter was grieved (was saddened and hurt) that He should ask him the third time, Do you love Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You know everything; You know that I love You that I have a deep, instinctive, personal affection for You, as for a close friend. Jesus said to him, Feed My sheep.
1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (AMP)
Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but only one receives the prize? So run your race that you may lay hold of the prize and make it yours. [25] Now every athlete who goes into training conducts himself temperately and restricts himself in all things. They do it to win a wreath that will soon wither, but we do it to receive a crown of eternal blessedness that cannot wither. [26] Therefore I do not run uncertainly (without definite aim). I do not box like one beating the air and striking without an adversary. [27] But like a boxer I buffet my body handle it roughly, discipline it by hardships and subdue it, for fear that after proclaiming to others the Gospel and things pertaining to it, I myself should become unfit not stand the test, be unapproved and rejected as a counterfeit.
1 Corinthians 16:15-18 (KJV)
I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruits of Achaia, and that they have addicted themselves to the ministry of the saints,) [16] That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth with us , and laboureth. [17] I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for that which was lacking on your part they have supplied. [18] For they have refreshed my spirit and yours: therefore acknowledge ye them that are such.
Philippians 3:13-14 (KJV)
Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do , forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, [14] I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
Ephesians 4:1-2 (AMP)
I THEREFORE, the prisoner for the Lord, appeal to and beg you to walk (lead a life) worthy of the divine calling to which you have been called with behavior that is a credit to the summons to God''s service, [2] Living as becomes you with complete lowliness of mind (humility) and meekness (unselfishness, gentleness, mildness), with patience, bearing with one another and making allowances because you love one another.
1 Thessalonians 5:21-24 (KJV)
Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. [22] Abstain from all appearance of evil. [23] And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. [24] Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 (AMP)
But test and prove all things until you can recognize what is good; to that hold fast. [22] Abstain from evil shrink from it and keep aloof from it in whatever form or whatever kind it may be.
Matthew 28:19-20 (AMP)
Go then and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, [20] Teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you, and behold, I am with you all the days (perpetually, uniformly, and on every occasion), to the very close and consummation of the age. Amen (so let it be).
