The Time of Restoration

Sunday, November 22nd, 2015

Isaiah 16:5   In love a throne will be established; in faithfulness a man will sit on it—one from the tabernacle of David— one who in judging seeks justice and speeds the cause of righteousness.

By observation we see a world in a mess but by faith we expect a jubilee to be at hand.  All of the enemies of righteousness will be brought under foot even though your eyes and reasoning would try to convince you otherwise.

Three of us were called to a prophetic trip that began in Charlotte on August 31st, myself and two men named Samuel.  While in the Charlotte area, we prayed for the innocent blood spilled on the Trail of Tears initiated by Andrew Jackson who was born in the area.  We were led to go to Rocky Mount, Virginia, (to the house of Cornelius- Acts 10) and then on to Fairfax in the Washington, D.C. area.  In Fairfax, Samuel experienced a vision of an 8.2 earthquake while standing in the lobby.  The next morning we went to Arlington National Cemetery and prayed for all of the innocent blood spilled in war.  After leaving there, we went to the Supreme Court and prayed for justice over the land.

The other Samuel had a dream where he was in a supreme court setting.  FATHER was the presiding judge.  Samuel looked at HIM and said, “YOU know who YOU are, YOU know who I am, let’s get this thing done!”  I believe this to have activated something notable in the Spiritual realm.  Additionally, I believe this relates to Isaiah 16:5 and did not link these together until now.  FATHER navigates us through these times and expects us to walk by faith.  Later HE will disclose greater details of what HE called us to do and/or say.  The other Samuel persisted in quoting an excerpt from the following:

Amos 9:11 ​​“On that day I will raise up

​​The tabernacle of David, which has fallen down,

​​And repair its damages; ​​I will raise up its ruins,

​​And rebuild it as in the days of old;

12 ​​That they may possess the remnant of Edom,

​​And all the Gentiles who are called by My name,”

​​Says the LORD who does this thing.

13 ​​“Behold, the days are coming,” says the LORD,

​​“When the plowman shall overtake the reaper,

​​And the treader of grapes him who sows seed;

​​The mountains shall drip with sweet wine,

​​And all the hills shall flow with it.

14 ​​I will bring back the captives of My people Israel;

​​They shall build the waste cities and inhabit them;

​​They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them;

​​They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them.

15 ​​I will plant them in their land,

​​And no longer shall they be pulled up

​​From the land I have given them,”

​​Says the LORD your God.

I believe these days have come and expect it to be a quick work.  As the unrighteousness of the world is coming to a climax, so is the full activation and authentication of those called unto righteousness.  As in the vision toward FATHER- “YOU know who YOU are, YOU know who we are, let’s get this thing done!”

The Warning

Saturday, November 21st, 2015

FATHER out of HIS Love for mankind always warns them before judgment arrives and this time is no different.  All of us remember 9/11/2001 and where we were at on that fateful day.  No matter who instigated the attack, judgment came to the shores of the U.S.  When the country’s response should have been repentance and remorse, instead it was pride, defiance, and unrighteousness.

Fast forward to 2008, seven years later, and we nearly had a meltdown of the financial system and were in hours of the government proclaiming martial law.  In the next seven year period we have had zero percent interest rates thus the middle class and the retired have suffered with less income from their life savings.  True unemployment has stayed around 22-23 percent during this period.  In response the government has increased transfer payments and food stamps to keep the populace from rising up.  Throughout this entire period the U.S. continues its war in the Middle East, the longest in its history.

There have been countless prophets warning America and those warnings have mostly fallen on deaf ears.  We have a tendency to believe if those warnings don’t come to pass rather quickly they must have been false.  However, FATHER is longsuffering to a point and does not hastily deal out judgment.  We should remain vigilant and not assume that all is well in the land.  Proverbs 16 expresses the position we should be taking:

16 ​​How much better to get wisdom than gold!

​​And to get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver.

​17 ​​The highway of the upright is to depart from evil;

​​He who keeps his way preserves his soul.

​18 ​​Pride goes before destruction,

​​And a haughty spirit before a fall.

19 ​​Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly,

​​Than to divide the spoil with the proud.

​20 ​​He who heeds the word wisely will find good,

​​And whoever trusts in the LORD, happy is he.

America’s hedge of protection has been removed and the enemy has been able to wreak havoc within our borders.  It is true for those countries who historically professed to be Christian nations.

Babel was a tower of defiance and mankind had totally separated itself from FATHER,  In an effort to rise up to the heights of the spirit, the tower was man’s attempt to become as god using their soulish thinking and methods.  Men have continued to build taller and taller buildings in an attempt to show their superiority and display their egos.  The buildings communicate the arrogance “Mine is bigger than yours thus I am better than you.”  Perversion continues to spread across the land.

In Isaiah chapter 9, the defiance of the leaders of Israel are but a type and shadow of the leaders of today:

8 ​​The Lord sent a word against Jacob, ​​And it has fallen on Israel.

9 ​​All the people will know— ​​Ephraim and the inhabitant of Samaria—

​​Who say in pride and arrogance of heart:

10 ​​“The bricks have fallen down, ​​But we will rebuild with hewn stones;

​​The sycamores are cut down, ​​But we will replace them with cedars.”

11 ​​Therefore the LORD shall set up ​​The adversaries of Rezin against him, ​​And spur his enemies on,

12 ​​The Syrians before and the Philistines behind; ​​And they shall devour Israel with an open mouth.

​​​For all this His anger is not turned away, ​​But His hand is stretched out still.

When judgment comes, man’s pride attempts to defy FATHER’S Hand in the matter.  In man’s arrogance and pride he remains blinded from the reality that he is under judgment.  Those who ascribe to the current political path of destruction will suffer the most.  What does FATHER think of hewn stones?  We read in Exodus chapter 20:

25 And if you make Me an altar of stone, you shall not build it of hewn stone; for if you use your tool on it, you have profaned it.

Man has replace the covenant of marriage with a different covenant represented by a six color rainbow.  FATHER’S covenant to the earth is a seven color rainbow.  Man’s redefinition does not suddenly make it true.  It only reinforces the reality that a harsher judgment is imminent.

Those who place their trust in FATHER will be spared the harshness of the coming judgment, no different than when the death angel passed over those who knew how to be protected from the severe judgment over Egypt.  On the other side of judgment is a restoration and those who have trusted in FATHER will be as lights unto the world.  The final preparation continues as the warning is still in effect.  Don’t be lulled to sleep because it hasn’t fully occurred yet for FATHER isn’t restricted to our timing and expectation.

Resisting the New

Friday, November 20th, 2015

“That is the way we have always done it.”  How many times have you heard that throughout your life?  I am all for doing things that work and keeping it simple but I must not be resistant to change especially due to FATHER providing me with new and fresh revelation.  When HE unlocks mysteries, we need to embrace them.  Jesus spoke a parable in Luke chapter 5:

36 Then He spoke a parable to them: “No one puts a piece from a new garment on an old one; otherwise the new makes a tear, and also the piece that was taken out of the new does not match the old.

37 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; or else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskins will be ruined.

38 But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved.

39 And no one, having drunk old wine,immediately desires new; for he says, ‘The old is better.’ ”

Each generation has difficulty in adapting to change and this has been true throughout history.  My childhood seemed simple but I now know that my parents shielded me from the complexities of the world.  That parental protection continues to abound today as well.  Our grandchildren are not dealing with major issues and thus they embrace new ideas and methods without reservation.  They have no reluctance to try something new.  We must consider our current revelation to only be a stepping stone to the next higher level FATHER desires for us to occupy with HIM.

Are you satisfied with your current Spiritual state?  If so, I would suggest you are drinking from the old wineskin.  The Pharisees could not recognize the Son of GOD in their midst because they could not go beyond their traditions.  Little did they realize what worked in the past may not work in the future.

Over the years FATHER has busted many of my doctrines and I am thankful for that.  As I matured, HE would share new revelation the dispelled my previous beliefs and assumptions.  HE would show me the correct reality rather than one mixed with man’s additions, manipulations, and interpretations.  Knowing that HE has busted doctrines in the past, I must be sensitive to any that need busting now.  I suspect I am not alone in that situation.

Let’s take a well known Scripture concerning the destruction of Jerusalem in Jeremiah chapter 9:

10 ​​I will take up a weeping and wailing for the mountains,

​​And for the dwelling places of the wilderness a lamentation,

​​Because they are burned up,

​​So that no one can pass through;

​​Nor can men hear the voice of the cattle.

​​Both the birds of the heavens and the beasts have fled;

​​They are gone.

​11 ​​“I will make Jerusalem a heap of ruins, a den of jackals.

​​I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.”

At first glance it would appear that FATHER will wipe out the current city of Jerusalem.  Consider this.  What if every man saw that the physical city of Jerusalem was no longer of any importance whatsoever to mankind?  What if mankind received the full revelation that we are the Temple of GOD and HE now will only dwell in us and through us and will never inhabit Jerusalem again?  With that revelation, Jerusalem would lose its significance all together.  It would be no different than the building on Azusa Street in LA where the revelation of the baptism of the Holy Spirit spread throughout the earth in 1907.  I have no desire to make a special trip to Azusa street, enshrine it, and worship there.

We must each consider that FATHER may have not given us the full revelation of what is coming forth in the near future.  We must not assume we know the full plot to the story and continue to ascend up toward HIM in the Spirit and in our thinking, understanding, and reasoning.  As we take on HIS Divine nature, we will see things differently and we will want to drink from the new wineskins.  We will let the old wineskins go.

The Preemptor

Thursday, November 19th, 2015

To preempt means to take action in order to prevent (an anticipated event) from happening; forestall.  The devil or adversary is a preemptor.  When Jesus was born, the preemptor attempted to keep the ministry of Jesus from coming forth:

Matthew 2:1 Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, 2 saying, “Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him.”

3 When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

Herod was the vessel of dishonor who attempted to kill Jesus and keep the current system in place.  He wanted to prevent the calling Jesus had on His life from coming forth and saving mankind from certain destruction.  FATHER moved upon the wise men to do their part in fulfilling HIS Plan:

7 Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared.

8 And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found Him,bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also.”

9 When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was.

10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.

11 And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

12 Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.

The wise men were sensitive to their dream and heeded the warning, a true sign of wisdom.  Moreover Joseph also heeded the instruction given to him by an angel appearing in a dream:

13 Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I bring you word; for Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him.”

14 When he arose, he took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt,

15 and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt I called My Son.”

Significant adversity generally precedes deliverance and success.  When your challenges confront you, know that FATHER will overcome them with HIS solution.  Have faith in HIS Word given specifically to you as you are subjected to events forestalling the expected outcome.  Don’t give up!

Pharaoh tried to kill Moses when he was a baby yet FATHER intervened.  Joseph’s brothers attempted to keep Joseph from fulfilling his calling.  The tempter tried to keep Adam and Eve from bringing forth righteousness on earth.  World leaders such as Hitler tried to thwart The Plan but to no avail.  Who or what is your nemesis?  Don’t let the preemptor keep you from rising up into the fullness of your calling.  Yes, the tests will come but you have Divine resources at your disposal as you align yourself and your thinking with FATHER.  When Joshua was proceeding to confront the enemy in the Promised Land, he encountered the captain of the host of the LORD in chapter 5:

13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, a Man stood opposite him with His sword drawn in His hand. And Joshua went to Him and said to Him, “Are You for us or for our adversaries?”

14 So He said, “No, but as Commander of the army of the LORD I have now come.”

And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worshiped, and said to Him, “What does my Lord say to His servant?”

15 Then the Commander of the LORD’s army said to Joshua, “Take your sandal off your foot, for the place where you stand is holy.” And Joshua did so.

The angel did not align himself with Joshua but Joshua aligned himself with the messenger of FATHER.  Not our agenda but HIS!  The preemptor is dealt with as we walk according to FATHER’S perfect Plan, Will, and purpose.

Overcoming Faith

Wednesday, November 18th, 2015

Each of us must overcome what our five physical senses are sometimes screaming at us in order to embrace FATHER’S Word toward us.  We must build our faith up in HIS Word knowing that FATHER is specifically interested in our wellbeing.  Jesus knew that FATHER would intervene when His calling was challenged or threatened.  Jesus’ calling was established by FATHER before He was formed in the womb and thus the higher Spiritual laws will trump the lower natural laws perceived by our physical senses.  In Matthew 8 we find a specific lesson on faith:

23 Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him.

24 And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep.

25 Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”

26 But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.

27 So the men marveled, saying, “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”

Jesus’ level of faith superseded the natural circumstances of the storm.  Instead of awakening and yelling at the disciples to row faster, Jesus dealt with the problem at hand.  He didn’t escape the problem but instead confronted the problem.  On the other hand the disciples thought they were going to die, including Peter the fisherman who grew up on the sea.  In the natural the disciples were justified in their concern.

Jesus is our example of a mature Son.  His relationship was well established with FATHER and knew that the Creator of Heaven and earth had power greater than the storm at hand.  We must keep this Truth before us at all times.  We need to mature into overcoming faith and trust in FATHER’S ability AND willingness to lead, guide, and protect us.

Be assured that your faith will be tested and by such testing your faith is made stronger.  It wasn’t until the storm arose that the disciples’ faith was revealed and it was not overcoming in nature.  In 1 John chapter 5 we read:

1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him.

2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments.

3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome.

4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

Our faith must have a foundation of Love, period!  Once you have finally embraced Love and know that FATHER’S Love for you is greater than anything the world can throw at you, you will walk in overcoming faith.  You know that you know!  What can I do to increase in faith?  Focus on those Scriptures, dwell and meditate on them day and night.  If you perceive yourself as having little or no faith, then you must direct your attention and “hear” FATHER’S Word in that area.  It is no different than preparing to run a half-marathon.  You start out where you are at then build up to the point where you can complete the 13.1 mile course.  It takes commitment to build up your stamina just like it takes commitment into building up your faith.  Faith comes by hearing the Word, dwelling and meditating on it.  If you are constantly diluting your attention by what the world is bombarding you with, you will had difficulty in walking by faith.

Luke 4:4  And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of GOD.

This is how Jesus overcame His circumstances, we should follow the same path.

Book Ends

Tuesday, November 17th, 2015

For most people, life seemed simple when they were young but it was due to their parents shielding them from the realities and challenges of the times.  In addition the parents would strive to provide a better life for their children than what they went through.  We need to honor our parents and our past but we need to move on for the past is gone.  Quit living in the past and embrace what FATHER is doing today.

Isaiah 43:18 ​​“Do not remember the former things,

​​Nor consider the things of old.

19 ​​Behold, I will do a new thing,

​​Now it shall spring forth;

​​Shall you not know it?

​​I will even make a road in the wilderness

​​And rivers in the desert.

20 ​​The beast of the field will honor Me,

​​The jackals and the ostriches,

​​Because I give waters in the wilderness

​​And rivers in the desert,

​​To give drink to My people, My chosen.

21 ​​This people I have formed for Myself;

​​They shall declare My praise.

We have all had notable events of the past and some of them may have been defining moments for us at the time.  Those events may have shaped our future but how long should we place great emphasis on those events?  High school class reunions provide perfect examples of this point.  There are classmates who seemed to peak in their popularity during high school and cannot seem to live beyond that era whereas the class nerd may have become a successful dentist, doctor, or entrepreneur.  We need to engage ourselves with what is in front of us today and let yesterday fade into the past.

2 Corinthians 5:17  Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

The Apostle Paul had a past he wanted to forget.  As an enemy of Christ and His followers, Paul who was Saul provides us an excellent example of moving on and embracing what FATHER has placed before us.  You will go through seasons of your life in preparation of what FATHER has called you to today.  Don’t view the end of a job, retirement, the loss of a spouse, or other notable life event as the end of your ministry.  When one door closes, another opens.  Walk through it and embrace what FATHER has placed before you.  This is true with some relationships as well.

Some people get stuck in one aspect of revelation and are unable to move beyond it.  They will continue their study of the old manna until they have fully extracted the life out of it.  We must move on knowing that FATHER has fresh manna and will provide it on a daily basis if we simply seek HIS Face.  In Luke chapter 9:

57 Now it happened as they journeyed on the road, that someone said to Him, “Lord, I will follow You wherever You go.”

58 And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.”

59 Then He said to another, “Follow Me.”

But he said, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”

60 Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and preach the kingdom of God.”

61 And another also said, “Lord, I will follow You, but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at my house.”

62 But Jesus said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.”

A bookend is to complete and encapsulate a set of books or stories that are related in some fashion.  One bookend starts the set and the other bookend completes it and establishes an end point.  It is time to place a bookend and let the past go.  Quit holding on to the past and putting it on a pedestal to be worshipped.  You are no longer that person and it is time to live in the present and seize the opportunity placed before you.  Your age doesn’t matter.

PS:  It is time to clean out the closet, garage, and storage unit.  Give it, sell it, or toss it.

Distractions from The Purpose

Monday, November 16th, 2015

In our zeal to bring forth The Kingdom, we can and often subject ourselves to distractions.  These distractions serve to delay or alter the purpose FATHER has called us to complete.  We will rationalize away the distraction by assigning benefit to the distraction and calling it “good”.  A beloved sister of mine shared the following story similar to the following:

A man was told by FATHER to proceed to a specific town to do a specific thing for HIM.  On the way, the man stops at café and another man sits down beside him.  They strike up a conversation and the first man ministers salvation to the second man.  After the delay, the first man arrives at his destination and finally accomplishes what he was sent to do.

Was the delay the perfect plan of FATHER?  No.  The man did good but not his best.  When FATHER tells us to do something and we add or subtract from it, we did not do according to what HE told us to do and there are ramifications to that disobedience.  In order to walk out HIS perfect Will, we must pay attention to detail and not assign our own desires and results as being pleasing to HIM.  It is critical that we develop the discipline in our individual lives to not get ahead of what FATHER is instructing us to do.  It is as important to know when to do something as it is knowing what to do.

In John chapter 10 the Jews sought to stone Jesus:

39 Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand.

40 And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stayed.

41 Then many came to Him and said, “John performed no sign, but all the things that John spoke about this Man were true.”

42 And many believed in Him there.

In chapter 11, Mary and Martha innocently attempted to distract Jesus from what He was told to do by FATHER.  Their circumstances moved them to compel Jesus to stop what He was doing and immediately respond to their need for Lazarus to be healed:

1 Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

2 It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

3 Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick.”

Was the intent of the sisters good?  Yes.  Was it FATHER’S perfect Will for Jesus to respond immediately and go to Bethany to heal Lazarus?  No.  We must resist the temptation to respond emotionally to circumstances out of our own desires, associations, or convenience.  We must resist the temptation to respond to any crisis demanding our attention.  Our focus must stay on what FATHER has instructed us to do.  This is true stewardship and maturity of a Son.

17 So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

18 Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, about two miles away.

19 And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

20 Now Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met Him, but Mary was sitting in the house. 21 Now Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

The women were distraught that Jesus did not immediately come and heal Lazarus.  In fact, He waited four days after Lazarus’ death to arrive on the scene.  We all know the rest of the story that Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead:

40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?”

41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.”

43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!”

44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with grave clothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him, and let him go.”

Had Jesus responded to Mary upon her summons, the people would not have seen the glory of GOD in this fashion.  They would have looked at death as being permanent and they would have assumed that Jesus was restricted by man’s physical death.  As a result of the the raising of Lazarus, FATHER’S plan was being perfectly walked out by HIS Son.  We too must endeavor to not get ahead of FATHER but must be diligent to be sensitive to respond to HIS Word not adding to or subtracting from what HE has called us to do.  We must be vigilant to respond to FATHER’S perfect Plan, Will, and Purpose rather than man’s situations.

The Two Witnesses

Thursday, November 12th, 2015

The Word and THE Spirit are the two witnesses by which everything is established on earth.  From these witnesses come power (SPIRIT) and authority (Word).

Revelation 11:11 Now after the three-and-a-half days the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them.

12 And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” And they ascended to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.

13 In the same hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. In the earthquake seven thousand people were killed, and the rest were afraid and gave glory to the God of heaven.

As of 4:14 AM on 11/11, Oklahoma had 51 earthquakes in the last 7 days.  This is a notable and dramatic increase from last week where the number had subsided to less than 10 in a week.  The North American Craton or geologic plate is once again on the move.  The number 51 represents Divine revelation by the way.

I was troubled in my spirit when I awoke on the 11th and had received an email from a beloved sister overnight.  FATHER had her alert me of some Spiritual events in recent days that directed me to Revelation 11 and Jeremiah 3 and 5, all dealing with judgment and treachery.  It is clear to me that the Spiritual activity is dramatically increasing and we must not ignore it.

The two witnesses are empowered for all the world to see.  The world thought it could slay these witnesses and no longer be bound by the Spirit of the Law.  The timespan between the end of Pentecost and the manifestation of Tabernacles has lulled many to sleep.

The word “prophesy” literally means to speak under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit of GOD.  It is my expressed purpose to only write according to what I receive by the Holy Spirit and I believe that is why I am compelled to write each morning as directed by FATHER.  There are many who are called to provide notification to the world of FATHER’S Divine Intent and purpose.  Mankind will be unable to deny the warnings that have come forth.  I believe the recent focus on great faith and the necessity of rallying resources is an indication of what lies ahead.  How will it play out?  I say “expect the unexpected” to a degree.  At this point we only know in part.

May the breath of Life from FATHER fully activate and authenticate HIS called out ones to fulfill their assigned purposes on earth at this time!  May HIS Words come from the mouths of the witnesses as flames of fire burning up the wood, hay, and stubble.

Recently, my wife heard the creaking open of a box which tied to a vision that a man named Samuel had several years ago.  Jesus had led him up to an attic in a house where a box had been stored and unopened for years.  When Jesus opened the box the creaking sound was heard.  In it was Aaron’s rod and the manna which had been missing from the Ark.  Aaron’s rod had all three phases of growth on it: bud, flower, and fruit.  This indicates a quick work ahead.  The manna in the box contains sustaining life and will not grow old and decay.

My wife heard a second creaking sound as well.  We believe this to be the sound of the door closing separating those who are the called out ones from the rest.  This group is fully committed to serve all of mankind so we must not look at their inclusion as being some form of elitism.  Instead, they are those who Love and are willing to lay down their lives for any and all who dwell on the earth.  They are ones with great faith and trust in FATHER performing HIS Word through them.

I am compelled to share this things with you in order that you would be encouraged that FATHER isn’t in a dormant state while the current system continues its path to destruction.  I also encourage you to continue with your own preparation.  FATHER is alerting you and others by writings such as this to keep your eye on the prize.  Don’t be discouraged by an apparent delay in what you believe will come.  Any delay allows us to be better prepared for that fateful Day.  HIS Power and Authority will authenticate those whom HE has chosen for such a time as this.
