A Word for Preparation and in Returning Unto Me

Deep calls unto deep at the sound of thy waterspouts. Why are you so quiet unto Me, My children? Why do you not cry unto Me day and night for My touch of intimacy where you draw close to be able to hear My still and small voice? For I wait for you in the stillness of the night, in the early morning dew upon the roses, in the small chirp of the robin, in the cool breeze of the day.

I wait for you, My children, to draw close, to wait upon Me, for I have so much I want to share with you about the coming of the Rain and how I will pour out My anointing, how I will heal the brokenhearted so they can reach out to Me, but you do not draw near. I wait and I wait patiently for you. I am excited to share with you what I will do and ask you to be a part. Please draw near before it is too late for now is the time to come so I can prepare you to enter in.

Watch and pray, for your spirit is willing, but your flesh is weak, and you need to be built up by meeting with Me day and night. Come close. Wait upon Me, My children. Look at the falling of the leaves. Take the time to smell the roses and to take in the beauty of My handiwork, My creation. Do not be so busy that you cannot enjoy what I gave to you for I created nature for you to enjoy. Take the time before it is too late. Enjoy this time of peace upon the land.

mouthpiece – spokesperson, representative, agent, ambassador, delegate

Be My spokesperson, beloved. Speak My words of truth. Let the words that I give to you ring out, unhindered by the world’s view. Let them be pure truth.

I am the Lord your God. I have called you to walk in My purpose, speaking forth the design of My will for mankind. I want you to have an attentive ear. I want you focused on Me and Who I am to you. I want you to speak the words that I give to you with clarity. I do not want you to add anything or take anything away from My words of truth. I want them spoken in their pure form. How is this to be done, you ask? I tell you, dear one: I will enable you to speak them by the power of My Spirit, Who works within you. I will give you the strength and power to speak forth My truth, unhindered by those things that are going on around you. You may count on Me to perform in this instance. You may count on My will to shine forth in all circumstances that come your way as you focus on Me, listen for My still, small voice, and speak forth My truth with gusto.

I had a vision this morning I would like to share.

I was laying in bed, just waking up this morning — you know that place where you’ve just woke up but not ready to get up. Before me in this vision I saw a screen and on this screen pictures appeared much like a slide show. The first picture I saw was of three children on a bed huddled in the corner of a room. I was aware the children were in a shack in the Appalachian Mountains. They were covered with a thin blanket huddled together trying to stay warm. These children were young, dirty, shivering and had a look of despair on their little faces. I could tell this shack was freezing; there was no heat.

As the picture broadened, I saw the mother standing on the other side of the shack in what would be the kitchen area. The cupboards were open and were totally bare. She was standing with her arms crossed trying to warm herself as she stood looking at her children. The mother had on a thin skirt and shirt and looked as though she was in shock. She had no heat and no food for her children. I saw her walk over to them trying to tuck the threadbare blanket around her children the best she could to preserve the body heat that she was hoping they could produce by huddling together. This scene left me ill as I lay there cozy in my bed.

I am releasing My prophetic army to release words of life in these days.

Yes I am raising up My prophetic people to flow in the anointing of My Holy Spirit, and to be releasers of life. There is a call to come to a new level of intimacy with Me, your bridegroom, for I am speaking to My prophetic army to arise and flow in the gifts and to release life.

Don’t fret about your circumstances, but obey My call. Flow in your destiny, for I have called you out of the world to draw nigh unto Me. Resist the devil; hear My voice and obey and release My truths from My throne-room. For as you, speak My oracles, lives will be changed. Yes, I am releasing words of life through vessels who will grab hold of My Spirit and My destiny for them.

And he said to me, “What do you see?” So I said, “I am looking, and there is a lamp stand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps. Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left.” Zechariah 4:2-3 (NKJV)

Where are My warriors? Sound the alarm and take your places. Stop waiting for others to take your station. Be found where you know you are called.

Arise. Stand firm in My spirit. I will direct you. Yes, you are equipped. Sound the alarm. My people are not to be complacent. My glory will fill the earth. My fire will burn from each altar. It shall never be extinguished.

The Lord gave me a word from a young prophetess I know and trust very well that sums up much of what has been going on this past month. First, she saw a castle under attack. The enemy forces were flooding across a river in boats, shooting arrows at the castle, shouting, “We want war!” She saw me standing in the top tower window as a watchman in armor, crying out, “War! Summon the King!” Another soldier in a lower window was saluting while dodging an arrow.

Then she had this word that went along with the picture.

The sun has gone. There are rain clouds in the sky.

Watchmen on the wall warn the King; “War is here!” they shout.

The people are scared. There is fear in the warriors’ hearts.

No one will stand up to fight.

What are YOU going to do?

I’ve recently been given a serious word to churches wrestling with the influence of Pergamum, (Rev 2:17) and in trying to understand this word I’ve had to do a lot of research and prayer on this issue and it’s given me a lot of fresh understanding of this spiritual condition. Pergamum was a city where Caesar was very prominently worshiped as a god, and describes a spiritual demonic principality where men are in a way worshipped. Certain individuals or positions are held in such high esteem that their rule is practically beyond question or scrutiny, as men and man’s ways are followed as if they were divine doctrine. (Mark 7:7 ‘They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.’ (NIV) ‘But in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the precepts of men.’ (NASB) also see Mathew 15:9)

Also, the false distinction between the “clergy” or leadership, and the “laity” or normal people, is strongly held. This is why within Pergamum the powers of Balaam and the Nicolaitans are free to operate.

The spirit of the Nicolaitans is a way the Lord describes the spirit of control, dominance and abuse that operates in these churches. The Greek name Nicolaitan basically means “to conquer and rule the people like a tyrant,” and is similar to the Hebrew name Balaam, which means “to devour or swallow up the people.”

The enemy is trying to hijack,

He is trying to hijack the Lord’s house.

He is trying to hijack the temple.

He is trying to hijack the Lord’s bride.

I saw this vision around two weeks ago.

I saw that to my left and to my right were fields.

Two rows of barbed wire running through the length of the fields, dividing them. Between the two rows of the barbed wire was a trench filled with dark water. This trench also stretched through the length of the fields. It would be difficult for anyone from either side to cross to the other field.

The field to my left, was unplowed, and looked more like an open ground used for camping.

The ground looked bald, with just a few tufts of grass here and there. The people in this field looked strange. Though they were people who lived in the modern times, they wore clothes, from another era, the 1920’s, which reminded me of a movie from the 1970’s, ‘The Great Gatsby.”

All their clothes were either of nylon, or other machine manufactured materials.

These people appeared unconcerned about anything beyond their own surroundings. They were wining and dining, and had picnics all the day long. The people stood scattered in this large field. A few here, a few there.

Singapore/Indonesia Trip Notes February 25 to March 08, 2008

During our trip to the Singapore and Indonesia areas, the Lord showed me the golden fishnet that was being woven over the Asia areas. The angels were weaving the net up above in the heavens. I watched as men and women were being lifted up in the spirit, and they were being inserted into the weaving fabric of the net. They were being joined into the net by the Lord. They became the embodiment of the golden net, and the golden net became a living network comprised of those the Lord was now joining together for His purposes in the Asia/Pacific areas.

The angels above the net would then receive the people as they rose, and take them and lay them flat upon their backs and they would begin to weave them into the net, strand by strand. Their individual identity remained as they each took on the overall structure of the net, but they also added to the individual character and the overall beauty of the Lord as they became His Glorious Net-work. The Light flowed gloriously through the strands of the golden net, and it flowed through each individual with the same light.

“I am drawing all things from you that are not pleasing to me,” saith the Lord. “I am shaking all that can be shaken, and will continue to shake things until my perfect will is done in the lives of those that I have called to holiness. I will shake, and I will turn things so that all that is up will be down and all that is down will be up.

“I am rearranging things and circumstances so that your lives will reflect the glory of myself, and that glory shall guide and protect you through this time of change. I have said that change is coming, and it is here. Do not burrow into a hole and cry out of fear, for yes, my child, I am the one that is bringing the change, and yes, my child I shall do a work and it shall be a work that will change you and your circumstances so all will know that it is me.

“For I say to you again that time grows short, for I am ever coming. For the ways of man must change; for the enemy draws nearer by the day, hour, and minute. Do you not hear him? Do you not see him in your midst? Do you not know him in your presence? For he is there for many; for there are many who do not walk a life of holiness, nor do they walk a life of fear of their God. For there are so many who are complacent and would rather see not. They would rather not hear, and would rather things stay as they are, for they fear the coming days and think that, if they can just leave it the same, that the future will not come. Rather like Scarlett O’Hara, they think that they can always put it off to tomorrow; but they know not that tomorrow is soon here, and then what will they do? For they have not studied My Word, nor have they listened to Me. They have ignored the words that have come before them, and they have said that they are in control. They do not fear Me or My ways, for they think that they control their own lives; little do they understand or listen to the voice of their God. And then there are those who have been so hurt by the ways of man that they blame it on Me, their Father, who loves them despite their broken hearts.

I saw a cloud rumbling across the sky with thunder and lightning. It was a coming storm, but the thunder rolled on the top part of the cloud, and the lightning flashed from the top also. Underneath the cloud, it was calm and covered a great amount of ground with the shade it cast. I watched the cloud rolling forward from sky level, and then, the cloud stopped. I looked beneath and saw many of God’s children in the wilderness. The cloud had stopped right over their heads.

It was obvious the cloud was bringing a storm, yet God was using this situation to bring shade for His people. They were the weary ones that had nearly fainted in the heat of the day, but just in time, the Lord had brought shade. I sensed this cloud was a holy covering for His people in a time of a tremendous raging storm.

I saw the lightning continue to flash, yet it reached outward from the top of the cloud and then downward. No lightning strikes took place under the shaded part of this cloud where God’s people were standing. There was wind that raged around them on the outskirts of the cloud, but no wind reached beneath. All remained calm under the shaded area.

March 7, 2008:

The enemy has launched an attack of betrayal and conspiracy against My people. You must rise up in the realm of the Spirit and exercise the gift of discerning of spirits in order to stop and defeat this assault. Awaken to this possibility so that you do not become prey to the devil’s trap. Be cautious about becoming vulnerable to those who would be kind to your face and speak evil behind your back. Do not put your trust in men, but trust only Me, says the Lord, and I will certainly reveal every plan designed by the spirit of antichrist to accuse, reject, or bring destruction.

Psalms 55:21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.

Luke 22:48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

“I am altering your priorities, because of the discipline which will be required of you and the time with Me, so I can take you to a deeper/higher level. There is always a cost. If you are willing, I will take you there. If you’re not, I’ll find someone else — for the demand is great.”

Only You Lord, know all that will be required. Only You know Lord what is down the road, but Lord, I commit to this new walk with You.

“My Daughter, you have chosen wisely.”

Lord, nothing in this world is worthy more than You. I realize You give us a choice to count the cost.

“COUNT THE COST!” (Luke 14:15-30) Matt. 12:30 “He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.”
