You are called to the nations and the smell of rain is fast approaching and soon it will fall.
FAITH – faith is what caused Abraham to move. Abraham staggered not at My promise through unbelief but was strong in faith, giving glory to Me. Walk forward in prayer. Now IS the time.
The enemy has come in like a flood and I have lifted up a standard against him. Though he rushes forward to divide and destroy, he cannot go beyond what I allow.
The time is now! Travail - crying out to bring it forth. Do your part, child and I WILL do mine. Faith! Trust!
O daughter of Zion, hear the roar of My voice as I call you. I have established you and called you forth from your mother’s womb. I have prepared in the center of the valley. I have decreed that the dead bones rise up!
Walk in truth as I, the Lord rise up to do as I have promised when you do as I have asked of you, in obedience and trust.
No more fear… no more little foxes. You will stay the course. Now is your time. You have purpose… not by power, nor by might but by My Spirit. Victory is sure. Smell the rain. Travail and birth it forth. The locusts are destroyed and will do no more. Now I will RESTORE. The hour has come.
Do NOT give up. Go forth. Press in like never before.
Press through – keep going…
Do not give up…do not give up…don’t you dare give up! I love you yet you think I will not do what I have promised. That would be doubt, that would be unbelief and I will not operate in unbelief for without faith, it is impossible to please Me.
Have faith as a grain of mustard seed. Say to the mountain, Be thou removed and be thou cast into the sea. Do not doubt in your heart and nothing shall be impossible to you. Yea, the dead bones arise and I have covered them with flesh, sending the breath of the four winds to cause them to live.
In the beginning of this stretch in the wilderness, you were given this story and who read it out of My word to you? Yea, think… and know… Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the heathen. I will be exalted throughout the earth.
Understand fully.
I AM your solid ground for I am the Rock
I AM He who balances all that concerns you
I AM He who hung the stars, the moon and the sun
I AM He who holds the answers to all you could ask
I AM He who reveals secrets
I AM truth that stands against all uncertainty
My child, it will all be worth it. Do not give up when life is unkind and the enemy whispers doubt and fear, telling you that you believe a lie. Fear not, for I AM He who is the Light that dispels darkness. Angels move on your behalf at My command. Be of good cheer and I shall comfort you. When the fire comes to purge and purify, it is I who has sent it.
I AM the one who holds your hand and walks beside you. I cut the burdens of the past and say, Fall away. I loose the bands of wickedness that have held you captive. Yea, and I AM He who instructs you and teaches you the way to go.
Have I not told you? Fear not man nor death, fear not the one who can kill the body, but fear Him who can destroy both body and soul.
I breath into you as I did breathe into Adam... as I did cause the dead bones to rise up. I AM He who held back the waters so the Israelites could walk through and cross over into the wilderness. Yea, and I AM He who released the waters so that they would overwhelm the enemy who pursued. I AM He who raised Lazarus from the dead and He who resurrected My Son.
Why doubt? I say be strong in the faith I have given you, for it is faith that pleases Me. Praise Me and give thanks for I inhabit the praises of My people. Hold on strong and wait for the beauty of love to develop strongly, for deep love births from true friendship that has endured the fiery trials and stood the test of time.
Who holds the power of your time frame in His hands? Have you not heard that a thousand years is as a day to Me? If I am for you, WHO can be against you? I AM a great King. I AM He who reigns supremely, all powerful and fully in control of all things!
Nothing takes Me by surprise! Trust!
Sound the drums of victory! Let the trumpets sound forth. Yea, rejoice; sing and dance before Me for My soul delights in My children.
I AM! With MAN it is impossible, but with Me, Yhvh (God) ALL things are possible! I care for thee! Never doubt My love for I AM Love!
Do you see? Do you feel it? – The rain is about to fall – you feel the mist in your spirit. Oh, lift up your face for Christ has scattered your enemies!
The latter rain – greater than the former…
Selah
Next day… July 25, 2008
In that day, says the LORD, will I assemble those that are lame, and I will gather those that are driven out, and those that I have afflicted;
And I will make them that are lame a remnant, and those that were cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD shall reign over them in mount Zion from that time forth, even forever.
And you, O tower of the flock, the stronghold of the daughter of Zion, unto you shall it come, even the former dominion; the kingdom shall come to the daughter of Jerusalem. Now why do you cry out aloud? is there no king in you? is your counselor perished? for pangs have taken you as a woman in travail.
Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shall you go forth out of the city, and you shall dwell in the field, and you shall go even to Babylon; there shall you be delivered; there the LORD shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
Now also many nations are gathered against you, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.
But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither understand they his counsel: for he shall gather them as the sheaves into the floor.
Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs bronze: and you shall beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain unto the LORD, and their wealth unto the Lord of the whole earth. [Mic 4: 10-13]
for HIS glory†

I can't tell you how much this word ministered to me. Even minutes before reading this (it is now 6:10am) the Lord was preparing me for this word. The confirmations! What a battle we face as believers. I tell you I spent the day yesterday being somewhat disheartened. Yet again, I am attending another church only to hear such a disregard for the concept of repentance... My eyes have been opened these last several months to the distortion of God's Word as so many sit under the sound of preacher's who don't reveal the pivotal notice of REPENT and believe. What a dangerously dark time within churches. But I am reminded that the Lord has called me to speak the Truth as He leads me and when He leads me.
ReplyDeletehello sister Joy,
ReplyDeleteIt is a truth what you say...I call them the "user-friendly" churches...no call to repentance, no mention of the cross (Christ's and our own), no speaking of the precious BLOOD of the Lamb, obedience or holiness.
Truly, we are in the last of the last days...
