“Intimacy with the Bridegroom”

 

With each passing year, as the Holy Spirit continues to draw me closer and deeper with my relationship with my Bridegroom, there continues to be a release of fragrance of His love for me as my love for Him continues to go deeper in Him. (Jesus Christ)

Before I begin sharing the vision of the Women at the Well came about on a very personal intimate level, I would like to share that many times as events were unfolding in my life, I questioned God A LOT. If that is you, may you be encouraged, that no matter where you have been in your life, The Hand of our Loving Heavenly Father is there protecting you and guiding you. You may not see Him, you may not feel Him, you may not discern His Presence, but He is there with you. (Psalm 139)

 

The Year is 1993, with a failed marriage, a separation from two beautiful daughters, failed relationships, trusting no one, I was  living on my own, and though I desired to live, I had no desire to continue living as I had been living. ALONE. I began ingesting Phenobarbital which were to be taken for seizures, but found a comfort of the anesthetic comfort they brought. Amnesia, a time of not thinking of the failure that I so believed I was. The more I took of these pills the more I sunk. This landed me in ICU (intensive care unit) in the hospital. God’s intensive Hand was upon me in this unit, cocooned and protected in His love despite my efforts of putting aside every burden with medications.  Three days in the Hospital having to this day very little recollection of anything going on AROUND me, but in my unconscious state, God was right there.

The Loving Hand of Abba Father was always there.

I began seeing a film of my life, from a very young age, still as a baby and up through adult hood. This film was gloomy, in appearance, and filled with darkness, but yet very enlighten as the Spirit of the Lord began breaking off the chains, and bondages, revealing to me  in this unconscious state, His consciousness and Love for ME. He (Jesus) was becoming very personal even in my unconscious state.  There was within me, a desire to LIVE in joy and happiness that I had sought within the things of the world most of my life, I no longer had to look any further. He had touched me, began His good work in me years prior, but this I saw, felt, tasted, as He blew HIS LIFE within me. When I became conscious, What the Dr.s told me, was no surprise to me, but something had been transformed within me from that day forward. With the amount of medication that I ingested, I was a miracle to be alive, not to mention at least, that there was absolutely no liver, kidney damage. This is what the Dr. told me, but he did not have to, I knew that I knew that God had saved me from myself. Jesus Christ!! All the prayers and tears years prior to this, never went unheard, never not once. Jesus revealed Himself to me through this unfortunate circumstance, but none the Less, to God be the Glory!! He made right the wrong, He bore my sins, every transgression for ME. It was personal.

I always sensed God was right there with me, but I had not known Him intimately. I had not known HIM personally. He knew me personally, every intimate part of me, more than I knew of myself.

This would be the start of a whole new Journey in my life. What I had sought, from things within the world, had “suddenly” changed within a twinkling of an eye.

I began flowing with unspeakable joy, of the Love of Jesus Christ, and just such a desire to share His love with others, passionate, on fire, without wavering. I would lose many friends because of my love for Him, but I did not care, He did for me, what I never could do of my own efforts. He saved me from myself. Each and every step, from that day forward, was with Jesus, no one could ever convince me He was not there with me, and I had favor in my life, every supply and need met, even when in the natural just did not seem possible to those around me, from the clothes on my back, to the food placed on my table, employment. FINALLY!! True Love being revealed, without condition. I began encountering Him personally in my dreams and He began giving me dreams, that at the time I did not understand, but He would speak to me in my dreams, and revealed himself through nature, through His majestic creation. Everything that I went through life, missing suddenly became ALIVE in everything. He was alive in everything to me. He still is. I was and still am High in Him and His love for me. The alcohol, the drugs, the “things” of this world suddenly became non-existent, I just wanted MORE of Him. To this day, that is my deepest desire and longing, as deep calls unto deep, more of You Lord!! My relationship with Him is personal and He loves me, and NO ONE or ANYTHING can ever take that away.

This journey has been absolutely incredible.

There was still work that needed to be done in me, and there was still  is a work needed to be done in me but the security I felt and still feel and experience in HIM, no human being can suffice. I am not saying I don’t need people, I do, what I am saying, is that my security in Him, means I trust HIM.

The Lord was about to come face to face with me in a new way in the early 2000. He became alive in the world to me, but He was about to come alive within me in a deeper way. He will go deeper if we say Yes to Him, and will never do harm and I knew it.

I had been engaged to a man, that even though the Lord clearly revealed to me, the outcome of this relationship, I did not know and understand Him as He was about to reveal to me.  In one year, I lost three very dear people to me, Two grandparents, and the man I was supposed to marry. The last death that year was my fiancé. I was absolutely devastated, as I poured my heart out to the Lord, again more losses in my life, I thought I had done something “WRONG” and I was being punished, as I was still coming in deeper with the Lord and His love for me, my mindset was still under the law, though I knew he was there with me, I had still not come into the fullness of understanding unconditional love. I still don’t have that fullness of his love, but what happened this day again changed my world.

He knew the heartache I had with the losses, He knew the Love for my children, he knew every cry of my heart. I was still set on some things of the world. That day I was led to Isaiah 54. This was truly an alive moment of the LIVING word of God for me, again personally!!

A Perpetual Covenant of Peace

 ¹ “Sing, O barren,
      You who have not borne!
      Break forth into singing, and cry aloud,
      You who have not labored with child!
      For more are the children of the desolate
      Than the children of the married woman,” says the LORD.
       ² “ Enlarge the place of your tent,
      And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings;
      Do not spare;
      Lengthen your cords,
      And strengthen your stakes.
       ³ For you shall expand to the right and to the left,
      And your descendants will inherit the nations,
      And make the desolate cities inhabited.
       ⁴ “ Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed;
      Neither be disgraced, for you will not be put to shame;
      For you will forget the shame of your youth,
      And will not remember the reproach of your widowhood anymore.
       ⁵ For your Maker is your husband,
      The LORD of hosts is His name;
      And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
      He is called the God of the whole earth.
       ⁶ For the LORD has called you
      Like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit,
      Like a youthful wife when you were refused,”
      Says your God.
       ⁷ “ For a mere moment I have forsaken you,
      But with great mercies I will gather you.
       ⁸ With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment;
      But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
      Says the LORD, your Redeemer.
       ⁹ “ For this is like the waters of Noah to Me;
      For as I have sworn
      That the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth,
      So have I sworn
      That I would not be angry with you, nor rebuke you.
       ¹⁰ For the mountains shall depart
      And the hills be removed,
      But My kindness shall not depart from you,
      Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,”
      Says the LORD, who has mercy on you.
       ¹¹ “ O you afflicted one,
      Tossed with tempest, and not comforted,
      Behold, I will lay your stones with colorful gems,
      And lay your foundations with sapphires.
       ¹² I will make your pinnacles of rubies,
      Your gates of crystal,
      And all your walls of precious stones.
       ¹³ All your children shall be taught by the LORD,
      And great shall be the peace of your children.
       ¹⁴ In righteousness you shall be established;
      You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
      And from terror, for it shall not come near you.
       ¹⁵ Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me.
      Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake.
       ¹⁶ “ Behold, I have created the blacksmith
      Who blows the coals in the fire,
      Who brings forth an instrument for his work;
      And I have created the spoiler to destroy.
       ¹⁷ No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
      And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
      You shall condemn.
      This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
      And their righteousness is from Me,”
      Says the LORD.

 

I will never forget this day. For many reasons as I am about to share.

During this time, My friends that I had in my life, did not agree with my life with Jesus. I was at this time, (still am) consumed with the Love of the Lord. I began feeling the same rejections, and abandonment once again, that I so desperately did not want to experience. No matter how many times I read the word of God, nothing ever hit me the way this hit me on this day.

 God was speaking to my HEART now, and burning within me within my heart a living word that spoke to my every fiber of my being. He revealed the intimate parts of me. The very secret places that I did not share with others, that only HE knew. That is His love for me. I did not understand at the time, that this was the working of the Holy Spirit, I just knew it was Jesus. My alabaster box was poured out that day in a way, that I don’t know how to put to put into words to this day.  He knew about the hurt with my kids, He knew my feelings that I was being “punished”, He knew the desperation in my heart. There was nothing unturned. He began a deeper work in my heart that day, that began a friendship with the Lord, that I never experienced in my life. NEVER. He was gentle, He was merciful. I experienced His mercies that day. The revelation of Jesus not being mad at me, that though my children were not with me, though I had a failed marriage, though I made a lot of mistakes in my life, though there was death around me, though there was shame, though I had been condemned, tried and convicted by man, HE gathered me with His mercies. HE loved me, though my fiancé had passed away, He was my bridegroom, He LOVED ME. Though I felt I could not go on, Though everything around me appeared to lifeless, HE WAS still ALIVE in me.  When I read, Vs 5 in Isaiah, I still not understand how He could be my husband, simply because I could not see Him in the natural, but I knew He was there. This would begin a new journey for me. I had questions for the Lord, and a lot of them. I asked. He answered.  He is still answering questions. The Lord was about to become even more alive, and reveal Himself as my Husband!

The longing of each heart is to be loved. God created that within each of us. I was looking for love in the “written” word of God. God began speaking to me in ways through everything, but when I began reading the word of God, something began changing. Most of My life even in the most destitute times in my life, I would always read the written word of God. After all, this is what I was taught. So this is what I did. I was a seeker for the things of God, but until the Holy Spirit drew me in, I could only see the written word as just that, Written on tablets or stone. I was veiled. I had always had a passion for the relationships that I read in the word of God, to have THAT with God. I would read over and over again all the experiences I read about, and would say to God, I want that!! I want what these people had with you. What I did not understand at that time, was that I did not have to DO anything to have that. Under the law of the letter, comes performance, in obtaining the Love of God. The Love of God for me, was already purchased, by the blood of Jesus, but until that became alive within me, as the blood of JESUS is LIFE. I wanted the revelation of Jesus Christ, I wanted his love, I desired to have all of what He had/has for me. I would read and read about the tabernacle and how the priests would enter into the Holy Place, and each area of the courts. I began really digging into the word of God, and really seeking him on an intimate level. I would talk to him, tell him how much I loved him, I just knew there was more. I wanted to understand how is it I can be your bride, and you be my bridegroom. How is it, that we can be one with You? I was still seeing only in the natural through the understanding of the natural mind, but bit by bit, and continue to this day, Jesus began revealing to me.

I never really dug into the new Testament a lot, because I was still bound by a Spirit of Fear, though the door was opened to experience the Love of the Father, in Christ Jesus, because so much condemnation was rooted in me, there would be a journey as the Lord began uprooting this.

A Husband that loves His Bride does not condemn her. He is the ultimate Lover of you. Your best Friend, and knows the very intimate parts of you. He is the lifter of your head, and when harm attempts to come to you, He runs to your side, and He shields you from the darts of the opposing one. You are safe in His arms, and together you have a covenant that binds you together, till death do you part. The Vows that are exchanged between the Bride and Bridegroom, are promises to each other. When I did not know Love, I could not understand as my mind still had strongholds that was binding me, blocking the journey to my heart. (Based on past experiences)

My foundations were layed on sand, and did not stand, because it was not built on the Love of God. It was built on the foundation of “works”, earning salvation. Jesus paid that price, there is no work that I can achieve that would do what Jesus did. With that being said, the tabernacle built with hands, or wells, made by man, will never be the best that God has for you. The Best that God has for you, the greatest treasure, the greatest gift, is Jesus Christ, and HIS completed WORK on the cross. By believing we can do something to earn salvation, is disqualifying what Jesus did by believing we can sacrifice our works for His completed work.  

It all began in John for me, as I believe the Lord was preparing a way for me through the book of John.

The Eternal Word

 ¹ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ² He was in the beginning with God. ³ All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. ⁴ In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. ⁵ And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend^[a] it.

John’s Witness: The True Light

   
⁶ There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. ⁷ This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. ⁸ He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. ⁹ That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.^[b]
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. ¹¹ He came to His own,^[c] and His own^[d] did not receive Him. ¹² But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: ¹³ who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

The Word Becomes Flesh

   
¹⁴ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
¹⁵ John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’”
¹⁶ And^[e] of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. ¹⁷ For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son,^[f] who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

The Lamb of God

   
²⁹ The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! ³⁰ This is He of whom I said, ‘After me comes a Man who is preferred before me, for He was before me.’ ³¹ I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water.”
³² And John bore witness, saying, “I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and He remained upon Him. ³³ I did not know Him, but He who sent me to baptize with water said to me, ‘Upon whom you see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, this is He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit.’ ³⁴ And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”

The First Disciples

   
³⁵ Again, the next day, John stood with two of his disciples. ³⁶ And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, “Behold the Lamb of God!”
³⁷ The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus. ³⁸ Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, “What do you seek?”
They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which is to say, when translated, Teacher), “where are You staying?”
³⁹ He said to them, “Come and see.” They came and saw where He was staying, and remained with Him that day (now it was about the tenth hour).
⁴⁰ One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother. ⁴¹ He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated, the Christ). ⁴² And he brought him to Jesus.
Now when Jesus looked at him, He said, “You are Simon the son of Jonah.^[i] You shall be called Cephas” (which is translated, A Stone).

Philip and Nathanael

   
⁴³ The following day Jesus wanted to go to Galilee, and He found Philip and said to him, “Follow Me.” ⁴⁴ Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. ⁴⁵ Philip found Nathanael and said to him, “We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wrote—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”
⁴⁶ And Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?”
Philip said to him, “Come and see.”
⁴⁷ Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, “Behold, an Israelite indeed, in whom is no deceit!”
⁴⁸ Nathanael said to Him, “How do You know me?”
Jesus answered and said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
⁴⁹ Nathanael answered and said to Him, “Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”
⁵⁰ Jesus answered and said to him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.” ⁵¹ And He said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter^[j] you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.”

 

 

 

I would read these verses over and over and over again, and asked the Lord please reveal to me what this meant. I understood the life of Moses, but this was very new to me. I did not understand the law, and Life. So I kept digging, as the LIVING Word of God began to reveal HIMSELF. The Lord began to reveal to me, I was looking in the things of the old to obtain something new. Things of the flesh, sow a seed of condemnation, because He does not condemn us, Our own Hearts condemn us. What is written on a heart of stone is not alive, but hard, and concrete.

The Lord did not stop with John 1, I continued into John 4:

A Samaritan Woman Meets Her Messiah

 ¹ Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John ² (though Jesus Himself did not baptize, but His disciples), ³ He left Judea and departed again to Galilee. ⁴ But He needed to go through Samaria.
⁵ So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. ⁶ Now Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
⁷ A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.” ⁸ For His disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.
⁹ Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, “How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.
¹⁰ Jesus answered and said to her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give Me a drink,’ you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”
¹¹ The woman said to Him, “Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water? ¹² Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?”
¹³ Jesus answered and said to her, “Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, ¹⁴ but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”
¹⁵ The woman said to Him, “Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw.”
¹⁶ Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”
¹⁷ The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.”
Jesus said to her, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ ¹⁸ for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”
¹⁹ The woman said to Him, “Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. ²⁰ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship.”
²¹ Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. ²² You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. ²³ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. ²⁴ God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
²⁵ The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, He will tell us all things.”
²⁶ Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am He.”

The Whitened Harvest

   
²⁷ And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why are You talking with her?”
²⁸ The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men, ²⁹ “Come, see a Man who told me all things that I ever did. Could this be the Christ?” ³⁰ Then they went out of the city and came to Him.
³¹ In the meantime His disciples urged Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.”
³² But He said to them, “I have food to eat of which you do not know.”
³³ Therefore the disciples said to one another, “Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?”
³⁴ Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me, and to finish His work. ³⁵ Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest! ³⁶ And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. ³⁷ For in this the saying is true: ‘One sows and another reaps.’ ³⁸ I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored, and you have entered into their labors.”

The Savior of the World

   
³⁹ And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, “He told me all that I ever did.” ⁴⁰ So when the Samaritans had come to Him, they urged Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days. ⁴¹ And many more believed because of His own word.
⁴² Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselves have heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ,^[a] the Savior of the world.”

Welcome at Galilee

   
⁴³ Now after the two days He departed from there and went to Galilee. ⁴⁴ For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country. ⁴⁵ So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also had gone to the feast.

A Nobleman’s Son Healed

   
⁴⁶ So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum. ⁴⁷ When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. ⁴⁸ Then Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe.”
⁴⁹ The nobleman said to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies!”
⁵⁰ Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your son lives.” So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way. ⁵¹ And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, “Your son lives!”
⁵² Then he inquired of them the hour when he got better. And they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.” ⁵³ So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” And he himself believed, and his whole household.
⁵⁴ This again is the second sign Jesus did when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What happened to my whole being rocked my world, forever changing ME and yet another level deeper in Jesus.

God is so awesome in His splendor!! He continued to just add on with every seed of LIFE HE was placing inside of ME. I was the Samaratin woman in Isaiah 54, The barren women, that was trying to quench my thirst with the things of the World.

I was committing ADULTRY with the things of the World.

Seeking the outside things of Him to fill and quench a thirst that ONLY My Bridegroom could do. The Wells of Jacob were made by hands, but His well I would never thirst again. I was HIS Bride, I am His Bride, and HE LOVES ME. HE LOVES YOU.

I had been married, been through so much, but no matter what I did of my own efforts, I AM, He is the IAM. He is the life everlasting well the springs forth, He is the one that will never condemn me, HE IS THE LIVING WORD written on the hearts of FLESH, no longer stone. He is the LIVING Tabernacle, I don’t any longer have to try to enter in His presence through sacrifices of the things of the world, because HE loved Me so much that HE CHOSE ME before the foundations of Time, He knew my name, He loved ME so much, that He alone chose to sacrifice HIMSELF dying to LIVE. He chose HIMSELF to LOVE ME. I brought everything to the cross, but I did not see He was ALIVE. This is the resurrection of Jesus Christ. He is NOT on the cross any longer, though my works of my flesh assisted through my sin in my life, He alone, spared ME because He loves Me as a Husband loves His Bride!! The church is the Bride of Christ, be it black, white, Hispanic, male, female, jew, greek, Islamic, YOU TOO are HIS Bride!! Jesus was the veil that was ripped from TOP TO BOTTOM. His Flesh, became the circumcision for ALL. That NONE should perish. Jesus is the WORD that BECAME Flesh and Dwelt among us. We are all the Samaratin Women coming to the well to draw LIVING Water, that is NOT made by hands, as this tabernacle was rebuilt in Three days!!

The Grace of Grace!!  He is the Ark of the Covenant, I behold His Glory. I am His dwelling place, accessing boldly through His precious blood, the sacrificed Precious LAMB OF GOD.

Things of the world will satisfy the flesh for a moment, but Jesus is eternal. The Love of the Father does not see your sin, He sees the price that was paid, Jesus Christ, and no one can come to the Father but through Jesus Christ, because there is no greater price that CAN or ever will be paid. I am NOW and heir of the things of  My heavenly Father through Christ. I can enter in through the blood of the Lamb in the presence of God at any time. His presence is IN ME. His is alive IN ME. He has set a seal upon my heart, and set me apart for HIM. There is no greater love than a friend who would lay down HIS life for me. Jesus did that, He died to Live, so I could die to live eternally with Him as His Bride, unity in Him.

I move and breathe In Him…….

Join me August 10th at 7pm at New Hope Assembly of God (Hwy 93) in Challis Idaho as the Spirit of God moves! If you are not able to attend, please keep me in prayer as the vision for Women at the Well continues to unfold

Dream- Pictures “Images”

7/8/09

I dreamed there was this pink hand bag, I had, and inside this hand bag was cash, pictures, credit cards.

Apparently there had been travel involved in this dream, and during this travel, this hand bag disappeared, with my belongings in it. I was so sure where it had been, who was with me, noticing the last person around me that could have possibly taken it.

There was a sense of desperation when this disappeared, as there was 300.00 in it that was needed to take care of bills, ect.  This was the outside exterior concern and what I shared with others. (Surface concern). I recalled having gone to a friend’s home, and people I knew were there.

 I kept asking the same person over and over again where the hand bag had gone, I was sure that I knew this person knew where the hand bag was. Then after asking, there was what appeared to be a HUGE film that began to play in the middle of the living room. In an instant, I there was this video that showed my hand bag, and its contents sitting on a bed.( Revealing the location of the handbag) No one else could see this video aside from me. I began asking questions relating to what was appearing before me.

 Repeatedly I asked, and after continuously asking the person, the person grabbed the hand bag, as if to say here you go, tossing it at me.

 The dream changed, after my hand bag was tossed back to me.  Immediately, I literally saw the hands of God holding a huge string of pictures that(were) are kept tucked in wallets and handbags.  It was very long, revealing everything that was kept in that hand bag. It was never about the “cash” money in the handbag. It was the images that were concealed within the hand bag.  When I saw the ties of pictures that were tied together, it was concealed pain that was hidden within me, that the Spirit of God was drawing out of me. In my spirit, it was sealed within me, though I saw pictures, He revealed, “IMAGES”. I cannot begin to describe the Holy Spirit conviction and the depths of the Love of my Abba Father at very precise divine exchange. This was all at one time. I saw my Father holding within His very hands the very things,  that began to let go within me.

The surface concern was money,(distraction) the root concern of my Heavenly Father was the concern of the images that were rooted within me.  The pictures were only pictures, but contained within those “IMAGES” was pain, and so very deep, that  I was absolutely deceived.  Each picture I saw uprooted, pain by the Spirit of God like drawing from deep within me, and releasing hidden pain. The weeping was uncontrollable, yet a deep relief as everything within me was being poured out to the Love of my Father. His love for me and the tenderness of His love drew from within me those captured memories that were contained within the pictures.

I saw in life form, in a video a face of a man, and immediately that face became others.  I saw my earthly father, as a young man, then I began seeing others in my life, who  were what I believed to be perpetrators (abusers) in my life.. This video was not just any video, God was showing me. 

In each and every person I saw within this video were not only the perpetrators in my life, but there was expressed Love of the Father towards each person. What do I mean? That although I truly had been the victim of circumstances of these people, there was the affection of our Heavenly Father to each person that hurt me, towards the very perpetrator.  Yes I had truly been a victim; my choices had been robbed as a child. Within me, with every fiber of everything within me, there was NO bitterness, or anger, but compassion of the Father.  This compassion was not experienced until there was release of the pain that had been contained within me.   

In this dream there was a continuous purging, groaning that I could never describe affectively into words. Imagine your greatest pain that you recall experiencing in your life, it was a cry deep within the very core of my being. I believe that was Jesus and Him alive within me, and such a release. Though it was a dream, it was VERY real. God went within the very depths of my heart; Heart Surgery that was being performed by the loving touch of the Father.

When this was completed, undone before God, crying out to Him, knowing I was forgiven, for the images that I was not even aware that I held onto, the Lord told me to look left.  This gets intense here as the spirit of the LIVING God reveals the thief!!!

When I looked left, I saw this HUGE creature, that stood what appeared to be ten stories high.  On first look, I did not see anything. It was as if God blew on this creature His breath revealing the accuser of the brethren.  He was not a man, but he was a beast!! He was breathing a pesticide from his mouth, with the intent to kill.  I knew with everything in me, there was just a knowing, and the word “rapist” that was exposed with the divine wisdom of God impressed within me. The spirit of the Living God, revealed the rapist of His people. I was so mad at the devil, I began calling him out, and crying uncontrollably at the same time, as God was exposing the thief of the hearts of HIS children.  IN that same instant, within seconds, divine exchange again, everything that the Lord has been revealing to me, in the past ten years His love for EVERYONE was very ALIVE in this dream. People are NEVER the enemy, whether you have been a murder, rapist, thief, JESUS LOVES you. Do you know who the real thief is? The real thief is the devil. If He can come in and have you believe that people have been your issue, then he has completed what he intended to do. Have you come into agreement with the lie that you are not LOVED. Am I saying that if you have been abused in your life, that it was not the person? No I am not saying that. What I am saying is that just as JESUS IS SPIRIT, so is the devil. Jesus became man on this earth, and the devil will manifest HIMSELF through people. All he needs is agreement. The people now become the distraction, and you become bitter because of what has happened in your life, believing the person is the issue, rooting un forgiveness, seeking to devour your life roaming about like a lion to destroy you, by making you believe that there is something that separates you from the Love of the Heavenly Father. What better way to do this, than to use the very people that were supposed to be there to protect you, come along and abuse you. God created me and you to have relationship with HIM. The enemy knows this. If he can just come in for a second by using the most impressionable people in your life, then what you can see on this earth, has already begun to root a blockage to the unseen.  In God’s infinite love, as all this was being revealed, not only was the true thief identified, the true rapist of LIFE, but everything within me, was revealed the TRUE love of the Father, as I was blanketed in His love as all the venim of the enemy was being sprayed all about me.  I was covered by the very hand of God with His blanket of LOVE. His protection, His hands, His love, His mercy, His goodness, and it IS these very things of God that reveals. Jesus, Himself. Can you contain the blessings of God? His light will expose every bit of darkness within our own hearts. It’s truly the goodness of God that gives to us a renewed mind, as well as a  heart transformation.

Now what I am about to share, may not be easy for some to read, but please continue to read on Keeping in mind, that if you have been a victim of abuse in any matter, ITS NOT YOUR FAULT!! The enemy has kept you bound long enough has he not?  God wants to heal your heart, and release that so that He can love you, as you have been created to BE LOVED. Love was very distorted in my life, the images that were kept  “secret” within my heart, for so many years, that fear gripped me at every turning point in my life. Fear became love. That was the trick of the enemy. Fear is NOT love, but Perfect Love Casts out ALL Fear.  Today I can share that, but fear became the “trust” in my life. I trusted the spirit of Fear more than I trusted the very creator that created me for Intimate relationship with Him. JESUS LOVES YOU. If you can believe that He does not love you, then the enemy has rooted in your heart, and doing exactly his job. He is the accuser, the life wrecker. Fear told me, not to ever let anyone else in again. (Spirit of Fear) . Fear told me, that everyone would reject me in my life, if I let them in. Fear told me that everyone would be the same way towards me.

Jesus came to give you life and Life more abundantly!!  There is no LIFE in fear. If you take the “f” out of fear, you have a listening EAR to the heart of our Heavenly Father in Christ Jesus.  Life comes only in Christ Jesus. The world has NOTHING to offer you.

There is nothing of this world that can fill the void. The emptiness, that rejection, the abandonment, shame that I experienced in my life, identified me, based on the images (mindsets) strongholds that were rooted deep. Because of those images, my responses in life were based on that mindset and rooted within my heart.  I am here to tell you, you can be free from this. You can be free of fear dictating your yesterday, your present and your future.  Jesus poured Himself out for ME. He poured HIMSELF out for YOU.  His love covers a multitude of sin. He does not agree with sin, but truly His grace absolutely goes around for each person. There is nothing that is that bad, that He has not died for. NOTHING.

There has to be an exchange. Something comes within you. Jesus exchanged himself for YOU. He loves YOU. When you can identify the true thief, remember is never people, though people will come into agreement with the enemy, Jesus still loves them. What the issues truly are, are the issues in MY heart, not your heart.

 

 

 

 

The Lord says to you, You are indeed MY BELOVED. To be ONE with ME. The abusers of your life, have not been of ME. My Beloved. I am doing a new thing in your life. My affections are set upon you. I am restoring what has been taken from you. I am restoring and revealing to you my affections and my thoughts towards you. I am restoring the broken relationships you have experienced in your life, because I love you. I desire you with an ever lasting love. I have good thoughts about you. You have felt squeezed, and Yes that is Me. That is me taking that within you and exchanging what you have known for the wonders of who I AM.

I am a Father to the fatherless, I am a lover of your soul. Taste and see that I am good. I will take everything that has been bitter in your life, and replace this with honey. I will melt down every barrier, with MY LOVE. Come, lean your head upon my heart, sit me with for a while. Let me share with you, my Love for you. There is Only Love with me. Let me reveal to you. I have had nothing but compassion for you. I have a life of destiny for you. I speak tenderly to your heart. I will not hurt you. Encompassed in Me, wrapped in beauty, of all the love I have for you, my Beloved My Bride. The entry is narrow, I will touch those areas of your life, I will set free every chain, expanding you in such ways you have never known. I have created you for my good pleasure my Beloved. GREAT Pleasure.

Our Recipe for Life

 

Throwing Away the Directions-

This Afternoon, as I was just enjoying my time with the Presence of God here,  having the wonderful opportunity to cook a meal,  as the Spirit of the Lord quickened me with something I am led to share.

Everything we make in the natural and prepare for meals, for families, friends, and ourselves require directions in the preparing of the food.  I have made this meal many times, and yet,  I forgot the directions in preparing the food. I also threw the box that contained the directions for the recipe of the meal.  Without the directions,  I can do very little, but with the directions I can’t do much in preparing a meal for anyone much less our selves.

There is a reflection here with our relationship with our Abba Father. There is a certain door, that we must enter.  I am the way, the Truth and Life, no comes to the Father but through Jesus Christ.

 Our Recipe for Life.

. In the world, our recipes and concoctions are of our own making. In the world the flesh cries, without Jesus the soul starves for this Love that is created for communion with the Father.  The Pride of Man is the recipe for disaster that says, this is MY recipe and “I” made this. Pride says, I don’t need anyone, when in fact that would be a pretty selfish thought and intent in our own hearts, because who created me? Who created you? Yes you came from a seed of your mother and father, but who created that seed of Life within your parents?  The Father took a part of Himself and planted himself in this earth in this world,  in Mary. His name is Jesus Christ, and just as precious of the Lamb of God that He is, so are you that precious seed that was created for HIM.  God created us for relationship.

In the world, we seek and seek and, believe me I sought in the world for the things that only God Himself can give us. He made that very place that beats within you to beat with His, your Heart.

The enemy would try to come in and say to you, that if only you succeed here in this place, or if only you make this position, or if only you have this high grade, but I am here to tell you, that no matter how successful you are in the natural, there will always be a void that will go unfilled, until you become one with the ONE who made you to be one with Him.  I have been there, and there comes an end to our selves, and end to the desires of the things of this world, when you see His hand in everything.  My mentality in the world was as this.  

If only I could do “right” (which would be the concoction) of the things of this world. This thinking was under the law, believing I would be able to DO something right to EARN the Love of God.  That would also be coming into agreement with the adversary that you are not loved unless you do something . Which would also mean,  that the greatest sacrifice given, The Precious blood of the Lamb did not complete the forgiveness that is given to you.  This absolutely denies and is in direct opposition of God.  He took the sins of WORLD upon HIMSELF.  Where man once entered into the Holy Place and sacrifice himself.

 

The Lord says to you, “ I am your success” When things of the world and the beliefs of this world have forsaken you, I will not forsake you. When those who you have believed loved you, I will give you living water, that will never dry up. He says you will never thirst again for the things of the world. You have been bought with a great price, I have paid for you. I chose you before the foundations of time.  Yes my success is YOU. Yes your success with me. Walk with ME, take my hand for a journey together.

 

Each day we have choices and decisions to make but the LIVING Word of God (JN  1) Jesus Christ, who is the bread of Life is that recipe in which we obtain LIFE., He is Living, alive and full of directions, journey’s , paths in Life. He is not of this world, but He lived here as well. He did the will of His Father.  That was His recipe, doing what He saw His Father doing, as they are one.

In Kingdom of God as heirs of Our Heavenly Father,  for myself, I had to throw away and discard the directions that I had always known, that brought heart ache in my life, and read the new recipe that was given to me, Jesus Christ.  His love, His gentleness, mercy.

 

John 1

 

The Eternal Word

 ¹ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ² He was in the beginning with God. ³ All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. ⁴ In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. ⁵ And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend^[a] it.

John’s Witness: The True Light

   
⁶ There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. ⁷ This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. ⁸ He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. ⁹ That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.^[b]
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. ¹¹ He came to His own,^[c] and His own^[d] did not receive Him. ¹² But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: ¹³ who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

The Word Becomes Flesh

   
¹⁴ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.
¹⁵ John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, “This was He of whom I said, ‘He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.’”
¹⁶ And^[e] of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. ¹⁷ For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. ¹⁸ No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son,^[f] who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

 

^{John 4}

¹¹“Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? ¹²Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his flocks and herds?”

 ¹³Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, ¹⁴but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

 ¹⁵The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”

 ¹⁶He told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”

 ¹⁷“I have no husband,” she replied.

   Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no husband. ¹⁸The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.”

 ¹⁹“Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a prophet. ²⁰Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.”

 ²¹Jesus declared, “Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. ²²You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. ²³Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. ²⁴God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”

 ²⁵The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”

 ²⁶Then Jesus declared, “I who speak to you am he.”

 

 

Romans 8 (New King James Version)

Romans 8

Free from Indwelling Sin

 ¹ There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus,^[a] who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. ² For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death. ³ For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, on account of sin: He condemned sin in the flesh, ⁴ that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. ⁵ For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit. ⁶ For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. ⁷ Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. ⁸ So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God.
⁹ But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. ¹⁰ And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. ¹¹ But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.

Sonship Through the Spirit

   
¹² Therefore, brethren, we are debtors—not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. ¹³ For if you live according to the flesh you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. ¹⁴ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. ¹⁵ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” ¹⁶ The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, ¹⁷ and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

From Suffering to Glory

   
¹⁸ For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. ¹⁹ For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. ²⁰ For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope; ²¹ because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. ²² For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. ²³ Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body. ²⁴ For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? ²⁵ But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.
²⁶ Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us^[b] with groanings which cannot be uttered. ²⁷ Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
²⁸ And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. ²⁹ For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. ³⁰ Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.

God’s Everlasting Love

   
³¹ What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? ³² He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? ³³ Who shall bring a charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. ³⁴ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. ³⁵ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ³⁶ As it is written:      “ For Your sake we are killed all day long;
       We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”^[c]

³⁷ Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. ³⁸ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, ³⁹ nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

 

 

 

 

 

John 6:50-52 (New King James Version)

⁵⁰ This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die. ⁵¹ I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”
⁵² The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, “How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?”

 

Galatians 6:1-5 (New King James Version)

Galatians 6

Bear and Share the Burdens

 ¹ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. ² Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. ³ For if anyone thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. ⁴ But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another. ⁵ For each one shall bear his own load.

 

 

^{Genesis 2}

⁷ And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

Life in God’s Garden

   
⁸ The LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed. ⁹ And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

 

John 14:5-11 (New King James Version)

⁵ Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”
⁶ Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

The Father Revealed

   
⁷ “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”
⁸ Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”
⁹ Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? ¹⁰ Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. ¹¹ Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.

 

Dream- 7/2/09

I dreamed I was in this Banquet Room, and there was a Reception that was about to take place in this banqueting Room as the Bride and Bridegroom were about to make their entrance. The covenant ( wedding vows)between the two had taken place.

I recall that I was participating and anticipating the two to enter the room.  In assisting with making sure that everything was in place in the Banqueting Room, while bending down to pick something up off the floor, from the right side of my eye, I saw this huge white Train from the Wedding Gown of the Bride flow past me. Everyone (though those in the room I did not know) in the room was taken, and literally gasped for air. The Wedding Dress was pure, without blemish, white.

There was someone who was with me, that kept encouraging me to  take a look at full view. 

 In my spirit, in every part of my natural senses, I did not have to see the Bride, because I saw her though I did not see her in the natural..There were extreme impressions that were impressed like with in every fiber of my being without having to see her in the natural.

These were the impressions within me:

The Bride had long dark hair, which was like silk that when she went by you, floated, lightly what I can only describe as divine synchronized between her and everything around her. ( This was seen at glimpse)

The Scent of the Bride, was like that of a perfume never before have I ever smelled in the natural. There was a light  flowery,  and even within the scent of the perfume she was wearing, is best described as “Heavenly”.

The Bride was with great poise, confidence, and such an assurance within herself, in her Identity.  Her hands were as if they were porcelain, intricate, yet fragile, with slender fingers.  This Bride on her wedding day was vibrant with LIFE, full of Joy.

There was great laughter and joy overflowing, within the Bride and Bridegroom, and with everyone in the Banqueting room. There was a great celebration and every person in the room was in “AWE” of her.

This all transpired all the impressions within me, within seconds. 

Within me,  with everything happening within the split seconds of everything happening, there was a double impression. 

The other impression was this:

There was like comparison that was transpiring, and a veil of shame, that tried to stop me from seeing me as the Bridegroom sees me. The preparing, of the arrival of the Bride became the distraction of seeing myself as the Bridegroom sees me.  When this Bride walked by me, She was full of Life and radiated that life from within her. The confidence she displayed was the result of her commitment with her Bridegroom. The Covenant that had transpired the exchange of Wedding Vows, The Two that became One.  

Isaiah 61 (New King James Version)

7 Instead of your shame you shall have double honor,
      And instead of confusion they shall rejoice in their portion.
      Therefore in their land they shall possess double;
      Everlasting joy shall be theirs.
       8 “ For I, the LORD, love justice;
      I hate robbery for burnt offering;
      I will direct their work in truth,
      And will make with them an everlasting covenant.
       9 Their descendants shall be known among the Gentiles,
      And their offspring among the people.
      All who see them shall acknowledge them,
      That they are the posterity whom the LORD has blessed.”
       10 I will greatly rejoice in the LORD,
      My soul shall be joyful in my God;
      For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation,
      He has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
      As a bridegroom decks himself with ornaments,
      And as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
       11 For as the earth brings forth its bud,
      As the garden causes the things that are sown in it to spring forth,
      So the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.

Isaiah 62:4-7 (New King James Version)

4 You shall no longer be termed Forsaken,
      Nor shall your land any more be termed Desolate;
      But you shall be called Hephzibah,[a] and your land Beulah;[b]
      For the LORD delights in you,
      And your land shall be married.
       5 For as a young man marries a virgin,
      So shall your sons marry you;
      And as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride,
      Soshall your God rejoice over you.
       6 I have set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem;
      They shall never hold their peace day or night.
      You who make mention of the LORD, do not keep silent,
       7 And give Him no rest till He establishes
      And till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

 

John 3:28-30 (New King James Version)

28 You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, ‘I am not the Christ,’ but, ‘I have been sent before Him.’ 29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease.

 

Revelation 21:1-3 (New King James Version)

Revelation 21

All Things Made New

 1 Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. 2 Then I, John,[a] saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God.

 

The New Jerusalem

   
9 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came to me[b] and talked with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.”[c] 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy[d] Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, 11 having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. 12 Also she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: 13 three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west.
14 Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names[e] of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. 15 And he who talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. 16 The city is laid out as a square; its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand furlongs. Its length, breadth, and height are equal. 17 Then he measured its wall: one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel. 18 The construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass. 19 The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, 20 the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. 21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.

 

Revelation 22:16-18 (New King James Version)

16 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”
17 And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.

Song of Solomon 1 (New King James Version)

THE Shulamite

    12 While the king is at his table,
      My spikenard sends forth its fragrance.
       13 A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me,
      That lies all night between my breasts.
       14 My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blooms
      In the vineyards of En Gedi.

THE Beloved

    15 Behold, you are fair, my love!
      Behold, you are fair!
      You have dove’s eyes.

How are your Struts ?

On my way to work this morning, I began hearing a sound in my car, in the rear of the car. It sounded like something was loose in my trunk. When I arrived to work, I moved things around in the car, to see what could be causing the noise.

When I left from work, the things that had been shifted in the trunk of the car were still in place, yet driving down the highway this afternoon, “That” clunking sound” still continued.  I pulled into a gas station locally here, and again searched the trunk, checked the muffler, anything that could have been lose, yet still, I could not locate where the noise was coming from.  I then thought,  wisdom would be to have the car checked, for my own safety. I pulled into the automotive repair and explained the noise I was hearing as they took my car for a test drive. Sure enough nothing was lose in the trunk, however, to my surprise there was a strut that snapped. That would certainly explain the noise. J

The fact that the strut broke did not bother me, as there is always an indication when something needs to be fixed.  I however was not happy with the price of a strut.  None the less, I know that this has been paid for one way or another. Jesus paid it already.  For me I have noticed, more so recently that when things happen in the natural there is an indication of something in the supernatural as well. So, instead of getting caught up in the distraction of what is in the natural, I began looking into exactly what the strut serves a purpose for.  This is what  I found.

http://www.carpartswholesale.com/cpw/struts.html

·         A strut is a support consisting of a bar or rod used to resist longitudinal compression. Its main purpose is to strengthen a framework making it strong yet separated from one another

·         The Chapman strut is designed to act as a shock absorber and a wheel location device at the same time and is made to resist lateral forces

Vehicle struts basically function in maintaining balance and safety in your car. It provides more than a comfortable ride as it influences the control and handling characteristics of your ride. Without fully function struts in your car, your car would continually bounce up and down the road making the drive extremely difficult and uncomfortable for you

We have a new DNA, new Frame work in Christ. Our minds are renewed; hearts are transformed, as we begin to see our true image. Things that happen in the natural can if we allow it, to become the distraction of what we can learn, or as led by the Spirit of God.  When our drive in the natural is comfortable, then sometimes we need a strut to snap. Comfortable is not always good, as this can become complacency, and stagnation. We all have a shock absorber that resides within us. Our Safety becomes redefined, as we are led by the Spirit of God, not by the things or experiences of the past. That would be comfort ability and a place we no longer desire to be. Behold all things become new.

 

The balance I see in all this is that in order to remain balanced,  an aligning needs to happen, in our mindsets, in our hearts. This allows with a Holy Confidence, assurance, that no matter what goes on in our lives, Our Heavenly Father see’s it all, knows it all, and has made provision for each and every thing that happens in the natural.

 

I am reminded that we are to Rest in Him, and not to fret about such things, as these truly are significant in the natural, but to Trust and rely on Him with everything, to not become unbalanced, as this would be a seed of doubt or lack that would become the distraction.

 

We cannot be focused on lack, and believe our Father has supplied our every need richly.

So today, Who is whispering in your ear?

 

Matthew 10:28-31 (New King James Version)

²⁸ And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. ²⁹ Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will. ³⁰ But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. ³¹ Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows

 

The Whole Armor of God- Ephesians 6

   
¹⁰ Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. ¹¹ Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. ¹² For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,^[c] against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ¹³ Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
¹⁴ Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, ¹⁵ and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; ¹⁶ above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. ¹⁷ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; ¹⁸ praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— ¹⁹ and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, ²⁰ for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.

Thankfulness and Prayer- Philipians 1- New King James Version

³ I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, ⁴ always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy, ⁵ for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now, ⁶ being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ; ⁷ just as it is right for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart, inasmuch as both in my chains and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers with me of grace. ⁸ For God is my witness, how greatly I long for you all with the affection of Jesus Christ.
⁹ And this I pray, that your love may abound still more and more in knowledge and all discernment, ¹⁰ that you may approve the things that are excellent, that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ, ¹¹ being filled with the fruits of righteousness which are by Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

 

I thank you Father, when everything in the natural appears to be in upheaval or chaotic, that I always have a place of shelter and rest. There is absolutely no weapon formed against me, that will ever prosper. There is never anything that be done against you, but only for you.

Help us all, and help me that when things go astray and take me for a shock, that you are not only my absorber on good days, but always.  I rest in the confidence of Jesus, and strengthened by His joy through the circumstances.

 

 

6/25/09- Dream

24^th Floor

I dreamed I was in this very large building, as many others were with me, but there were two that I recall.  Myself and someone named David.  (no one I knew)

The goal in this dream was to reach the 24^th floor, and to find rest in a room in this building. The room number was  408. This was like a very large climb, as you could not reach to the 24^th floor of this building by an easier way.  There were no elevators, and there were very narrow places that had to be gone through to get to the 24^th floor. I am sensing this was a race of some kind, as the time that myself and others did not stop for breaks but just climbed.

In the process of going up to the 24h floor, there was what appears to be a very,  narrow walk way suspended literally in the air, and you could not walk across this without “Balance”. This was an obstacle for many, as this took great concentration and focus. When someone would attempt to walk across this, knowing there was nothing under you, meaning if you lost footing you would also plunge to your death. Everyone had to trust in the Lord’s guidance through this.

As I was attempting to cross this beam, with great balance and precision, there were others who tried very hard to get me distracted so I would lose balance, and fall to my death. There had to be stillness and quietness to get across this beam to reach that 24^th  floor. The distractions that were going on around me in essence, to try and stop me from my destiny, became the very distraction for those who were causing me distraction to reach their destiny.  I recall getting up to go across this beam, and it was dark around me, those who were with me, deliberately attempted to cause noise, in the atmosphere as it echoed, and trying to frighten me. That noise did not stop me from walking across. There was such a great urgency in this dream, as something very large (in the atmosphere) sensing with everything in me the Lord was doing was about to occur, and reaching this floor was a matter of life and death.

As the noise continued, I pursued where I was led to go, allowing the distractions from around me, to not be my focal point, but to be in check within me, and extremely focused with vision.

I reached the 24^th floor, and on this 24^th floor to my surprise was a very large room, that had wall to wall window, and very open. I recall seeing the beauty of the height from this floor, and as I stood gazing out and looking around me, as I was standing on an edge trusting the Lord, in awe of what I saw, an enemy came from behind me, began to push me off this ledge, from 24 floors up, knowing it would be my death, and then pulling me back as if to save me from a death. I recall tremendous fear attempting to grip me in this dream, while this torment was happening, but I also knew that the enemy would not win. I was led by God to do this climb with great urgency.

The enemy was there to torment me and to get me off guard, to become the distraction so to speak.  I recall hearing this voice, that asked me on this floor, how does the view look? I said, its absolutely beautiful, as I was in awe, is when the enemy whispered this. His voice shivered my insides, as I had to keep my emotions in check, as they were being tempted to give in to the whispers to believe I had reached my end. When I did not give in to the enemy, the enemy dis appeared and that “test” was done.

As quick as the enemy was there, he was gone.

Suddenly, after what I knew in my spirit to be a test, an attempt of a distraction, emotional distractions, was done, EVERYTHING changed. It was as If I was launched into a new dimension. (whole new arena so to speak). It was not until I was at this place, that I became very broken. During this climb, I had to keep my emotions in check, and not pay attention to my feelings. They would have become the distraction and I knew that the enemy would use my heart, and my feelings to plummet me to my death.

I was dancing or like floating in the heavenly is the only way I can describe it.

There were people everywhere here in this dimension, and they had a “knowing” of what was going on. I recall seeing a person on what represents the four corners of the earth. I saw it is directional and each corner shared something with me. (North, South, East, West) Everyone had great peace, but knowing that time was short. In this dream, I heard, “ Sound the Trumpet”, everyone was preparing themselves to be “HOME”. Home was not known to be here on this earth, but with the Father In heaven. In this was “preparation” making things right with the Lord, and an alarm, but with extreme excitement through this preparation.

I was seeing people I knew from “earth” from this height, from this atmosphere that knew time was short and preparing their hearts to be with the Heavenly Father forever.

There was great glory of God, as I was very overwhelmed and touched deeply by what I was seeing and hearing in this.

There was a great urgency for me to come back down and share this with others. I was supposed to share this with everyone. There was not a soul that I saw that was not preparing to be HOME. Everyone was talking about being home with the Father.  In this dream, there was coming a keen awareness of what “home” truly was. People were preparing themselves to have home in the heavenly with the Father of Heaven.

 

 

Revelation 4 (New King James Version)

Revelation 4

The Throne Room of Heaven

 ¹ After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, “Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this.”
² Immediately I was in the Spirit; and behold, a throne set in heaven, and One sat on the throne. ³ And He who sat there was^[a] like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald. ⁴ Around the throne were twenty-four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white robes; and they had crowns^[b] of gold on their heads. ⁵ And from the throne proceeded lightnings, thunderings, and voices.^[c] Seven lamps of fire were burning before the throne, which are the^[d] seven Spirits of God.
⁶ Before the throne there was^[e] a sea of glass, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back. ⁷ The first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature like a calf, the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle. ⁸ The four living creatures, each having six wings, were full of eyes around and within. And they do not rest day or night, saying:

      “ Holy, holy, holy,^[f]
      Lord God Almighty,
      Who was and is and is to come!”

⁹ Whenever the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to Him who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, ¹⁰ the twenty-four elders fall down before Him who sits on the throne and worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying:
       ¹¹ “ You are worthy, O Lord,^[g]
      To receive glory and honor and power;
      For You created all things,
      And by Your will they exist^[h] and were created.”

 

 

Ephesians 1:2-25 (New King James Version)

² Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Redemption in Christ

   
³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, ⁴ just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, ⁵ having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, ⁶ to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
⁷ In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace ⁸ which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence, ⁹ having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself, ¹⁰ that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both^[a] which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him. ¹¹ In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, ¹² that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
¹³ In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, ¹⁴ who^[b] is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.

Prayer for Spiritual Wisdom

   
¹⁵ Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints, ¹⁶ do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers: ¹⁷ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, ¹⁸ the eyes of your understanding^[c] being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, ¹⁹ and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power ²⁰ which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, ²¹ far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.
²² And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, ²³ which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

 

Christ Our Peace

   
¹⁴ For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, ¹⁵ having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, ¹⁶ and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. ¹⁷ And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off and to those who were near. ¹⁸ For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

Christ Our Cornerstone

   
¹⁹ Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, ²⁰ having been built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone, ²¹ in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord, ²² in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

 

 

 

Ephesians 3 (New King James Version)

Ephesians 3

The Mystery Revealed

 ¹ For this reason I, Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles— ² if indeed you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which was given to me for you, ³ how that by revelation He made known to me the mystery (as I have briefly written already, ⁴ by which, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ), ⁵ which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets: ⁶ that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ through the gospel, ⁷ of which I became a minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the effective working of His power.

 

Purpose of the Mystery

   
⁸ To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, this grace was given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, ⁹ and to make all see what is the fellowship^[a] of the mystery, which from the beginning of the ages has been hidden in God who created all things through Jesus Christ;^{[b] 10} to the intent that now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places, ¹¹ according to the eternal purpose which He accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord, ¹² in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him. ¹³ Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

Appreciation of the Mystery

   
¹⁴ For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,^{[c] 15} from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, ¹⁶ that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, ¹⁷ that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, ¹⁸ may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— ¹⁹ to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
²⁰ Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, ²¹ to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

 

Daniel 6:9-11 (New King James Version)

⁹ Therefore King Darius signed the written decree.

Daniel in the Lions’ Den

   
¹⁰ Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.
¹¹ Then these men assembled and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.

 

Luke 15:4-7 (New King James Version)

⁴ “What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it? ⁵ And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing. ⁶ And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!’ ⁷ I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who need no repentance.

 

 

There were quite a few of us that went to the zoo this past weekend. It’s been years since I have had the opportunity to do this.  I love to capture in images/pictures what God is revealing through His beauty as this is displayed in everything that has been created by Him.

Every capture is moment of intimacy with the Father, as His expressed love is manifested in every living thing in the natural.  He created it, therefore He is in it. 

These images can be images in our mind, the pictures that are either enlightened by the glorious light of Lord (living) or those things that bring to the bones of the body, a dryness-such as lack, doubt, condemnation, and then become the “decoy” (distraction) to conceal the truth of  the love of the Father.

A decoy is a person, device or event meant as a distraction to conceal what an individual or a group might be looking for.  (www.answers.com) 

I heard, Watch for the decoy, I saw the decoy, on the right was what was a living breathing duck. The decoy is meant to be  the  distraction  to what God is doing in our lives, to take the focus off the LIVING breathing Lord, Jesus. I am quickly reminded of Joseph. His brothers were jealous, as Joseph shared a dream with his brothers. His brothers attempted to “conceal” Joseph before his father, leaving him for dead as they stripped Joseph of his coat of many colors that were made for him.  

Joseph was a slave in Egypt, but the hand of God was still on him. There were many distractions that were thrown his way, decoys so to speak in attempt to conceal God within him. Joseph however, remained focused, when temptation arose, he resisted the temptations and the enemy fled.  He was successful in His relationship with the Lord, though his family  concealed his life, his body, the Lord was with him. He knew who he was, he knew the dream that was given to him though having shared it prematurely, God still restored the relationships with his brothers.

While in prison, the favor of God was upon Joseph.

In Genesis 39:

Genesis 39

Joseph a Slave in Egypt

 ¹ Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. And Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him down there. ² The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. ³ And his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all he did to prosper in his hand.

 

As Joseph, so shall you be. Stay watchful and gaze into my eyes, Where I lead, you will be. There is no place you have gone, or will go that I am not with you, for I have seen the end from the beginning. Keep watchful, let not the snares or pestilence be of deep concern to you, but the treasures I have hidden within you. The treasure you are within me. I say come up here, I say come up here, let me show and give to you all that I have promised as the rainbows, as the promise and the inheritance of the children of the most high God, I say to you, my children come find rest in me. My beloved, You are my beloved, I am your refuge and strength in times of trouble you are hidden within me, I am your rear guard, I am with you. I am vision, I am your vision, for apart from me, you can do nothing, I love you.

 Apart from me, you only have A Part of me, but I have come that you may receive all that I have for you. I desire you, I desire for you to receive in my fullness.

You have been engraved on the palm of my hands, what is engraved will always be, I know by name, I know you, there is nothing about you that is hidden from me, for I have created you.

My hand is upon you as was Joseph, I lay my hand upon your mind and renew each thought, bringing down every stronghold every decoy that would attempt to separate your mind from me. For I am truth. My hand is upon you, my children. When my sheep go to the pasture, I gently bring you back I am your comfort and guidance, I have set the paths before you, no harm will come to you, for I have you, I have you, I have never forsaken you, my love for you is from ever lasting to everlasting. You are blessed, for the inheritance you have my inheritance.

I am taking those who have hunched over, those who have sought me, I am raising you up, I am bringing you into alignment, I have taken every crooked path in your life, I have straigtened it, the narrow way, come with me, come I say come with me, into the rich fullness of my love of my bride. There is no harm that will come to you, no weapon that will prosper as you are clothed in my righteousness, you are my beloved.

 

Isaiah 54

¹² I will make your pinnacles of rubies,
      Your gates of crystal,
      And all your walls of precious stones.
       ¹³ All your children shall be taught by the LORD,
      And great shall be the peace of your children.
       ¹⁴ In righteousness you shall be established;
      You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
      And from terror, for it shall not come near you.
       ¹⁵ Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me.
      Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake.
       ¹⁶ “ Behold, I have created the blacksmith
      Who blows the coals in the fire,
      Who brings forth an instrument for his work;
      And I have created the spoiler to destroy.
       ¹⁷ No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
      And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
      You shall condemn.
      This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
      And their righteousness is from Me,”
      Says the LORD.

Just random sharing here. I believe the Lord is stirring deep desires within each heart of His Bride. I have been seeing, “Fire Bride” in the past few weeks more and more. This is the season to awaken Love, in the spring with new things blossom. “Transistions”

With that, all things become new as we continue to yield to the Spirit of the LIVING God. Prepare the way of the Lord! Fullnes of Joy!

Have a blessesd Day.

Prophesying

——————————————————————————–
Lastnight I dreamed that I was up in the mountain area. There were many green trees, and it was very sunny outside. The funny thing is that the road was straight, which was quite opposite of what I have experienced in the mountains.lol
There was this road that I was on. I was on this road prophesying to people and writing the prophecies on the signs on the roads too. This is wild! The presence of the Holy Spirit was strong, and The Lord was literally with each step that I took, like He was walking in Me. It’s hard to explain really. He was walking in me with me, around me, before me and beside all at the same time. That’s all I recall at this time.
