Gather yourselves unto me. Come up and sit with me. I have much for you to do. Come near and I will instruct you. Come closer and find yourself healed. I am your shepherd-protector. Do not grow weary. Continue to climb up my mountain. I am the one drawing you.  I am the one who grants you dreams of a future. Sit with me, for I have chosen you to rule, to delivery my justice and mercy upon the earth. You are mine and I will reward you. Allow me to move among you that we may talk and share my thoughts. I am looking for those who will intercede for my people; for those who would speak upon their behalf. Lift your voice aloud and shout, "Here is your God!!" Cast out fear. Let my love be seen in your every reaction. Lead them to me.   You who bring good tidings to Zion, go up on a high mountain. You who bring good tidings to Jerusalem, lift up your voice with a shout, lift it up, do not be afraid; say to the towns of Judah, "Here is your God!" See, the Sovereig

For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for him…  Philippians 1:29 (NIV)

Happy are the people who know the festal shout, who walk, O Lord, in the light of your countenance; they exult in your name all day long, and extol your righteousness.  For you are the glory of their strength; by your favor our horn is exalted.  Psalm 89:15-17 (NRSV) It is time for you to walk in the light of my forgiveness and grace. There are things I want to show you.  There are some scabs of the past which must be removed so that healing can occur.  There are misrepresentations and strongholds awaiting to be toppled. My love is for you. Renew the expectations and excitement you once held. Come back. Spend your time with me.

Be devoted to prayer, keeping alert in it with thanksgiving. At the same time pray for us too, that God may open a door for the message so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. Pray that I may make it known as I should. Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunities. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer everyone. Colossians 4:2-6 (NET)

Shout out praises to the Lord, all the earth! Worship the Lord with joy! Enter his presence with joyful singing! Acknowledge that the Lord is God! He made us and we belong to him; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise! Give him thanks! Praise his name! For the Lord is good. His loyal love endures, and he is faithful through all generations. Psalm 100:1-5 (NET)

My son, preserve sound judgment and discernment, do not let them out of your sight; Proverbs 3:21 (NIV) 3-2-1 Yes, I'm counting down. The count down is active, but not as you might expect. My ways are to bring all into the fold; peoples of every nation are to be at my table.  Cast out the darkness, bring the light to them.  Do not be silent. Bombard the heavens with the intercession I've given you. I'm counting on you to accomplish your part. Discern the voice of my direction and cast a wider net. Visit unfamiliar waters. Learn to move in expectancy and abundance. I am the great provider-creator. There is nothing too difficult or me. Follow the direction I shall give in dreams. The count-down has begun. The harvest will be innumerable.

"Remember these things, O Jacob, for you are my servant, O Israel. I have made you, you are my servant; O Israel, I will not forget you. I have swept away your offenses like a cloud, your sins like the morning mist. Return to me, for I have redeemed you." Sing for joy, O heavens, for the Lord has done this; shout aloud, O earth beneath. Burst into song, you mountains, you forests and all your trees, for the Lord has redeemed Jacob, he displays his glory in Israel. Isaiah 44:21-23 (NIV)

Open for me the gates of the just king’s temple! I will enter through them and give thanks to the Lord. This is the Lord’s gate — the godly enter through it. Psalm 118:19-20 (NET)

Summon your power, O God; show us your strength, O God, as you have done before. Psalm 68:28 (NIV) As I was driving home from work yesterday I heard the Father speak these two short items. Find the answer for yourself. Do you know what I am doing? I want to move off of the page and into your heart. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. 1 Corinthians 2:13 (NIV)

For all who are led by the Spirit of God are the sons of God. Romans 8:14 (NET)

Look, the little tribe of Benjamin leads the way. Then comes a great throng of rulers from Judah and all the rulers of Zebulon and Naphtali. Summon your might, O God. Display your power, O God, as you have in the past. Psalm 68:27-28 (NLT) Come to the source and find what you are seeking. Come drink freely that you may be activated in what I have for you. Come to the source of life and resurrect the dead. Come to the source of living water and share with all who thirst. I am the living WORD. Allow me to speak through you. I am the source of all light. Come into my presence and my out-shining will heal those whom you pass. Let the light shine forth for the world to focus upon, that it would illuminate their heart. Come to the source for pure love casts away all fear. Awaken to the fact that you have within you what the world desires.  Be drawn to the great light, the source of all things. As he was going along, approaching Damascus, suddenly a ligh

And they who are wise and understanding among the people shall instruct many and make them understand, though some [of them and their followers] shall fall by the sword and flame, by captivity and plunder, for many days. Daniel 11:33 (AMP)

“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea that caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, they pulled it ashore, sat down, and put the good fish into containers and threw the bad away. It will be this way at the end of the age. Angels will come and separate the evil from the righteous and throw them into the fiery furnace , where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Matthew 13:47-50 (NET) He told them, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they threw the net, and were not able to pull it in because of the large number of fish.   So Simon Peter went aboard and pulled the net to shore. It was full of large fish, one hundred fifty-three, but although there were so many, the net was not torn. John 21:6, 11

As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."  Matthew 3:16-17 (NIV)

Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the desert and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. So Moses thought, "I will go over and see this strange sight--why the bush does not burn up." When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, "Moses! Moses!" And Moses said, "Here I am."  Exodus 3:1-4 (NIV)

So we, numerous as we are, are one body in Christ (the Messiah) and individually we are parts one of another [mutually dependent on one another]. Having gifts (faculties, talents, qualities) that differ according to the grace given us, let us use them: [He whose gift is] prophecy, [let him prophesy] according to the proportion of his faith; Romans 12:5-6 (AMP) Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavor; be aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord. Romans 12:11 (AMP)

...but the people who know their God shall prove themselves strong and shall stand firm and do exploits [for God]. Daniel 11:32b (AMP) I want you to know my heart is for you.; to learn the depth of my love and acceptance. I want you to experience me and all I have for you. I want you to more than just succeed, but to outlandishly prosper in all ways. I want you to rise above the mundane and sit with me in heavenly places. I want you gain a new exuberance when you read my word. It will come to life and into your being. I want you to cast out the demons of your past, to lay hands on others that I may fill them; to extend my grace to the nations. I want you to look for me, to walk each day with me I want you, all of you. God said, Let Us [Father, Son, and Holy Spirit] make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the [tame] beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything that creeps upon the e

Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran. When he reached a certain place, he stopped for the night because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones there, he put it under his head and lay down to sleep. He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it. There above it stood the Lord, and he said: "I am the Lord, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the land on which you are lying. Your descendants will be like the dust of the earth, and you will spread out to the west and to the east, to the north and to the south. All peoples on earth will be blessed through you and your offspring. I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you." When Jacob awoke from his sleep, he though

But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 1 Peter 2:9 (NIV)

"There is so much more I want to tell you, but you can't bear it now. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.  He will bring me glory by telling you whatever he receives from me.  All that belongs to the Father is mine; this is why I said, 'The Spirit will tell you whatever he receives from me.' John 16:12-15 (NLT) While I am yet away, I am with you. The Spirit is revealing my heart to those who will listen. The Spirit will teach you. Ask and receive in line with what I have for you. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. There is freedom from self-expectation.  There is no condemnation from me. While you may not see me, I am ever-with you. Ask Him for direction. He will reveal the way to me. He will reveal my heart for you. There is never-ending love and acceptance.

“Come on! Let’s return to the Lord! He himself has torn us to pieces, but he will heal us! He has injured us, but he will bandage our wounds! He will restore us in a very short time; he will heal us in a little while, so that we may live in his presence. So let us acknowledge him! Let us seek to acknowledge the Lord! He will come to our rescue as certainly as the appearance of the dawn, as certainly as the winter rain comes, as certainly as the spring rain that waters the land.” Hosea 6:1-3 (NET)

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Ephesians 3:20 (NLT)

And he set up the courtyard around the tabernacle and the altar, and put the curtain at the gate of the courtyard. So Moses finished the work. Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud settled on it and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Exodus 40:33-35 (NET) For if what was made ineffective came with glory, how much more has what remains come in glory! 2 Corinthians 3:11 (NET)

Our attitude colour or distort the way we interact with the world around us. It reflects our inner person at that moment. We must learn to become dependent; to have new eyes which can focus upon what God the father values. Even though a very familiar piece of scripture, re-read it slowly and identify which character you are most like.  Do you like the answer? “Now his older son was in the field. As he came and approached the house, he heard music and dancing. So he called one of the slaves and asked what was happening. The slave replied, ‘Your brother has returned, and your father has killed the fattened calf because he got his son back safe and sound.’ But the older son became angry and refused to go in. His father came out and appealed to him, but he answered his father, ‘Look! These many years I have worked like a slave for you, and I never disobeyed your commands. Yet you never gave me even a goat so that I could celebrate with my friends! But when this son of

I do much thinking in my travel time to/from work, as I have about a 35 minute commute. I was asking about he "door" thing, asking for eyes to see what and when I'm to see when I heard God seek to me. I clearly heard him say, Come through the door." Today in church, I was a bit stunned when our pastor was speaking to the congregation. I heard him speak the same words God had spoken to me, "Come through the door". In the next moment I found myself alone outside in a field. It was a clear day and I heard the "whoosh" of doors coming closed behind me, as I'd stepped through some threshold. I felt such a difference, as if some weight had been lifted, the air was now different. It filled me wit a newness of life, and it was as if I was looking far into the distance. The next moment, I found myself back in the church service, but clearer more attached to/by God. At a point in the service, we broke into groups of 2-3 and were to pray for more
