Realignment

I am calling for proper alignment. Many of my children are feeling busyness. You have over extended yourself in that, “I can do it” mentality. That is not my plan. I’ve not called you to overextend. It’s time to learn to step back. This is a warning for those who’ve already ignored this message. I will begin to prune so you might return to me and away from your ministries. I am to be your ministry. You who know you are overextended, refresh in me. How can I lead you into the deep ways when you are always busy? Some of you are to step away now. Many of you are to allow the new leaders to replace yourself. Be sensitive to me and not to your “I ams”. Return to me. In your time with me I will re-sensitize you to what I am calling you to do now. Be fulfilled in me. Allow me to minister through you. You may be surprised with where I am leading you. I am all you will require. Align your spirit with my Spirit And flourish in this coming season.

Memorial Day 2006

"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of compassion and supplication, so that, when they look on him whom they have pierced, they shall mourn for him, as one mourns for an only child, and weep bitterly over him, as one weeps over a first-born. Zechariah 12:10 (RSV) Intercessors arise. It is time to lift forth the ways and promises of our father. Let your words pour forth. Let the supplications of you hearts reach into the heavenly courts. It is time for a new outpouring. Let it begin in our hearts and pour forth wherever we walk. Let there be a new full release of Pentecost; a sweeping of the Holy Spirit across the face of an expectant earth. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God; for the creation was subjected to futility, not of its own will but by the will of him who subjected it in hope; Romans 8:19-20 (RSV) Like the earth calling forth, let us who know Jesus face, also call forth for the w...

A new realm

I am God, your maker; I am the creator of all, the restorer. I am the God who speaks to his people. I am the one waiting for you to draw nearer. Come closer to me, that we might speak face to face. My spirit, in all seven, is moving about the earth. Invite me to be active within your life. Cross over into a new realm of sight. As you learn to trust me, you will see me at work. As you spend time in and with me, new strategies will emerge. I am the God who is calling your name. I wish to draw you into a new relationship, to take you places you’ve not yet seen nor imagined. Before time was created, I saw you. I know your ways. Invite me. I will not fail to come. Listen for me now. My spirit is speaking.

Inside the fruit are the sees of a new generation. Turn your face to my son and be warmed.

Sit before me

Sit before me in silence. Low the eyes of your heart to guide you, Not what you see or think what should be. Each time you come I am there And you grow more like my son. Bow your attitude. Place it in subjection to the spirit. I will guide you. Allow my spirit to grant impartations so you may grow in maturity. I am moving towards those who will seek me. I see your heart. I know what bombards you and how you react. At night I have visited you. My angelic forces even now are there. I have given them assignments. Sit with me. Work through the distractions of your body and soul. Commune with me, allow me to show you what I am about to do. My plans for you have not changed. My love for you has not weakened nor waned. Sit that I might strengthen you. Yes, learn to sit before me.

Sound the alarm

Sound the alarm. There are those dying who need not die. Call forth the soldiers. There are captives to be set free. I call forth my army to release reconciliation every day, every place they walk. Sound the alarm. There are children being murdered and abused. Release praise into the atmosphere. Send forth the shouts of praise into the highest heavens, that angelic response maybe released. Sound the alarm. It is time for the equipped saints to become equippers. It is time for the action of reclamation. Bring freedom and healing to those who have yet to know me. You have been called to action. I am releasing a new commission. Let there be a shout of affirmation rising up. Let there be a new responsive that allows me to grant new gifts and strategies. Sound the alarm. Listen for those who carry my apostolic message. I am directing them into new duties. I am releasing fresh prophetic eyes and ears to accompany them. My army will work as a team. My legion of soldiers will demonstrate the s...

Releasing

I am washing. I am about to release a cleansing. There is a rain available to those who will walk in. There is a time of cleansing; a way for those who will, to draw nearer to me. The fire has burned many of you. You have been tested. The fire has burned away that which is needless and useless. Now allow my spirit to wash away the residue. Watch carefully what you allow back in; for there is a seven-fold return soon-coming. Weigh fully what you see at the door. Do not be afraid of this rain. It will be different from what you have seen. It will be a new expression of me: A flooding you’ve not experienced. I am washing away not only the ash of the past and the ash of the present. I desire to flow freely within you. I am waiting those who will allow me to wash away the ash of their future. I desire to flow. I wish to show you a new flood of my ways. No longer am I satisfied to take the path you wish me to travel. No longer will I be happy in following narrow man-made trenches. My rain is...

I am about to rush

I am about to rush upon my people. My power is to come upon my children. I am releasing new zeal for my kingdom. I am freely flowing upon those who will serve me in obedience. New ways are being to be exhibited. New thought patterns that you’ve not yet experience are being created. They are being released to bring children from the streets instantly into the kingdom. There is a coming release of my glory as your imaginations and feet move in concert with my word. The written word will become alive. It will leap from the page and into your experience. There will be those who will live-out the living word, experiencing what I have already written; experiencing what is ever-occurring within my kingdom. I am releasing new warriors to do my bidding. If you are asking for me, then draw closer to me. In this nearness I will overpower you love. There is no fear in love as I rush with purity over my people. It is time for the greater things to be released. It is time for the greater deeds to b...

Draw back your bowstring. Take aim to let your arrows fly. Abiding in me your arrow finds its mark. In my strength the battle is won. Draw back. Come into the safety I offer. I am your shelter. My warriors stand! They stand together. Each division uses the gifts they’ve received. Stand ready for battle. Move forth upon my word. Do not act upon what you see. Listen carefully for I will direct you. I will guide your every move. Wait upon me else you will not succeed. Obedience is reward. It is better than the sacrifice of your time. Stand resolute with me. Stand within my shadow.

a new revolution

I am calling you to a new revolution. It’s a call to me. It’s the vision of my love and restitution. There’s a call to the restoration of all my children. I am calling you. Stand up. Let my son be seen in you. Release the bonds that hold you. Drop the cords of the past. Spread my truth. Let it begin in your life. Know the value you are. Realize the depth of my love for you. Redesign your thoughts into my thoughts. Step forth into a new boldness, a new humility of my sonship.

In the busyness of your mind you are not hearing clearly. Learn to relax in me. To hear me with assuredness talk with me that I might share my heart. Let my plan for you begin to unfold. My kingdom is at hand.

Lessons from Judges Chapter 13

A few lessons for the soon-coming times of increased supernatural activity from Judges 13. We can deduce that the number 13 is not always a bad number. Again the people of Israel did what the Lord said was wrong. So he handed them over to the Philistines for forty years. (Judges 13:1) We can not expect God to overlook our overt sin, yet He will never forsake us. He is will test us so we might learn, repent and turn back to him. There was a man named Manoah from the tribe of Dan, who lived in the city of Zorah. He had a wife, but she could not have children. The angel of the Lord appeared to Manoah's wife and said, "You have not been able to have children… (Judges 13:2-3a) God is watching. We can expect unexpected supernatural intervention. God himself will show up when things are naturally hopeless. The miraculous intervention will be shown to the nameless and unknown. …but you will become pregnant and give birth to a son. (Judges 13:3b) God has great expectations and will gr...

Are you ready?

Even though it is the spring of a new year, I sense far too many of God’s people are feeling dead or far less than complete. Plans or dreams you once had have seemed to fade into the past. You may even be feeling blasé in your spiritual relationships. You are bothered with what may be described as spiritual barrenness. God asks, “Are you ready? You need to have a sense of expectancy.” I hear you replying, “Ready for what?” Are you ready for what God has planned for you? Are you prepared for the great work about to be set before you? Examine the barrenness you have been carrying around. Have you considered it may be apart of God’s plan. God is preparing his people. He asks if you are ready. He reminds us that we must be expectant if we are to deliver what he has set for us. Barrenness is not new. In fact it is a frequent topic within the Bible. Consider the biblical characters that were besieged with physical and spiritual barrenness. At the point of their description they were desperat...

At all times

At all times and all places I am with my children. I am with you now as you read this. Take time to sense my presence. Listen for me. Learn my cues. Find me in your dreams. I am there. Talk with me at night, before sleep and find if I will not answer you. I have much to be done from those who are willing. If you are willing, ask and learn from the training and expectation. You must expect to find me. Have an eager expectation in all your ways. My Spirit is present. Talk with Him. That which you willingly give away, I can multiply for you. Learn from the example my son gave. I am in the flashing lights. Expect to find me. That which you feed grows. Examine your ways, so that there can be more of me. Find me each day. Every morning call out to me. Return to me each night in sleep, that I may pour forth my ways into you. Reach past what you think you know. Learn to experience in. Loose my ways on earth. Bind my spirit to your life. Find me in all things. In all ways I wish that you may pr...

I am the LORD

For I am the LORD, the one who send true peace. I am the one who comforts. I listen to your prayers And smile as you sing to me. I am the LORD creator. I desire to meet with you. Let no fear come into your life. Speak forth when you feel me, for I will speak forth my ways. I will shatter the bonds of darkness. I destroy the chains of addiction. I am the LORD. Return to me. There is no shame. I break off condemnation.

Look for me

Look for me in all you do, seek me first. Look for me and what I am doing. Allow me to open your spiritual eyes. In all that you do listen for my voice. I am directing all who ask. Though it may seem dark, fear not. I am the light. Allow the darkness of your fear to be cast aside. I am the way you are searching for. I am the way of life. Drink of the wine I have to offer. I have taken back the keys of death. Look for me. I am the light of the resurrection. Seek me in all that you do.

How many loaves?

When Jesus asks a question it’s not that he doesn’t already know the answer. It’s more likely that he wants us to hear our own answer. In Mark 6:30-44 we read of a familiar story. Here Jesus has fed 5,000 men with the word of God, and next fills them with physical food. They are satisfied with eating from five loaves of bread and two fish. Now a few chapters later Jesus is again teaching the multitude when he asks a simple question. Jesus asked, " How many loaves of bread do you have?" Mark 8:5a (NCV). There are now at least four thousand men gathered and Jesus queries his followers. What do you suppose he was asking them? As you read the story for yourself, what might you suppose he is asking you? How many loaves of bread do you have? Are you willing to share, so that he may bring forth a miracle? He’s willing to multiply what ever is needed. Perhaps too there will be more left after feeding the hungry than there was before you offered what you have. " I feel sorry fo...

Set free

We are set free by the Passover Six days before the Passover, Jesus therefore came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. So they gave a dinner for him there. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those reclining with him at the table. Mary therefore took a pound of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. John 12:1-3 (ESV) The New Beginning There was to be a change; a new way of thinking. As a reminder God had them rearrange their calendar. This was to be the new beginning of the Hebrew year (Exodus 12:1-2). He wanted them to realize the significance of what He was about to do. These festivals shall be a reminder of you before your God: I am the Lord your God. The silver announcing trumpets are to be blown. (Numbers 10:10) He wished them not to forget it, but to continually bring it to their minds. We too have been born again. God does no...

Grow in Me

Grow in me. My deposit is placed within you. You are my seed and have my seed. Allow my ways to come forth. Don’t react to the world. But respond to my presence and leading. I will show you the way you should move forth. Stretch forth my hand in power and love. My light casts out darkness and illuminates all things. Examine your ways. Are you defensive or relying upon self? Take more of me. Spend time in my presence, So I may move for you. It is the time to get out. Walk forth; remove the bondages and hindrances of fear that grip you. My way is love. In me there is no fear. Speak my word that they may hear, that you may hear and be set free. I am truth. Grow in me that I might grow more in you.

a new army

This is what the LORD says: "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, 'We will not walk in it.' Jeremiah 6:16 (NIV) Follow me. I am leading those who will to follow. Wear my righteousness My path may seen unfamiliar, But you will recognize me. Follow the signs of my love. My righteousness shines as a light. I am leading you to a point of decision. Follow the way that is right. My cross points the way. My blood has provided what is necessary. Seek me, that I might show you more. There is a coming convergence; Yet I am leading out a new army, One clothed in righteousness. My word protects those who take it in. I will shield those who come to me. Lose yourself in me. The decision is yours to come.
