CHILD OF MY DIVINE PLAN

The coming darkness will cause you no fear.

My perfect love for you will cast out ALL fear!

I will hold your hand and lead you in a way like no other. 


I will give you eyes that can see in the dark, but I will also hold your hand and lead you through the darkness.  For you, this present darkness will be an opportunity to help bring in the great harvest. 

I AM the Lord of the Harvest, and I will usher in a mighty and uncountable harvest!

Don’t’ try to count these souls don’t try to count them!

They will be coming from all directions and places and in many numbers.

Those that are sitting in darkness are going to get up and run toward the light, those who are engulfed in darkness will clamor for the light.

My Chosen ones will shine bright in the darkness and they will point the way to Me. You will be like a lighthouse and a beacon in the dark and stormy seas.

YOU WILL REJOICE THAT YOU WERE CHOSEN...

...FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS.

Yes My Chosen Ones, this will be a time of Great Harvest!

You have been prepared for this great day!

You are fit and ready, now, for service.

I promise, you were chosen…

…For such a time as this!

CHILD DO NOT FEAR OR DREAD THE COMING DARKNESS!

Welcome it as necessary for a part of the things I have planned!

You will not listen to the voice of the enemy or fall into the deceits and the deceptions of his lies if you are walking in My truth.

You will be free indeed!

There is great peace and security in truth.

It will save you from the entanglements, and snares and traps of the enemy.

So recognize, know and embrace the truth of My Word!

It is a Gift of My love for you.

When you have My wisdom to rely upon, you see with the eyes of faith into the unknown. My child, the truth will set you free from the fear of failure. For when I am leading, I will never lead you to fail, but I will lead you to be victorious.

I WILL SET YOU FREE FROM THE FEAR OF MAN

For when I am on your side tell me –

Who can rise up against you?

Who dares come against My child when I the Defender and I their Protector is present? My love and my loving care are a protective shield around about them.

So stand up and shine!

ARISE CLOTHED IN LIGHT! 

I THE LORD SHINE UPON YOU!

Arise from the depression in which circumstance have kept you!

Rise to a new life!

Be radiant with the Glory of My presence!

For the Glory is upon you!

Even though darkness shall cover earth, and darkness and deep gloom

will cover the people of the world, but I the Lord, will rise upon you!

Though thick dark clouds shroud the nations, your new day is dawning.

People will see my glory around you!

So! Arise and be Glad!

The Eternal Light- Shines upon YOU!

Isaiah 60:1-2

I The LORD shall preserve you from all evil:

I shall preserve your soul.

I The LORD shall preserve your going out, 

And your coming in from this time forth,

And even for evermore.

Psalm 121:7- 8

I AM YOUR LIGHT AND YOUR SALVATION

So why should you be afraid?

I AM your fortress, protecting you from danger,

So why should you tremble?

When evil people come to devour you,

When your enemies and foes attack,

They will stumble and fall.

Though a mighty army surrounds you,

Your heart will not be afraid.

Even if you are attacked,

You will remain confident.

JUST ASK OF ME - ONLY ONE THING.

Let it be the thing you seek most—

To live in the house of the Lord all the days of your life,

Delighting in My perfect ways and meditating in My Secret Place.

For I will conceal you there when troubles come;

I will hide you in My sanctuary.

I will place you out of reach on a high rock.

You will hold your head high above the enemies

who surround you.

"In my Secret Place,

You will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy,

Singing and praising ME, the Lord of Glory - with music."

Psalm 27: 1-6

I CONTROL HUMAN EVENTS - 

I GIVE RULERS THEIR POWER…

… AND I CAN TAKE IT AWAY

My name will be praised forever and forever.

I AM all-powerful, and I know everything.

And I am the source of wisdom and knowledge.

"I reveal Deep and Secret things.

I know what is in the darkness."

Daniel 2:20-22

MY CHILD! MOVE INTO A SIMPLER LIFESTYLE

Move nearer to My fire and My Presence where the pillar warms in the night seasons and the cloud shields from peril during the day!

When you are so consumed by My glory and presence that you must do

everything you can to live in it and near it, you will be a blessed person!

Blessed is the man who longs for more of Me.

To flourish in My Presence means to have no other love focus but My will!

And. No secret agendas or hope of personal greatness in reward for your efforts!

Blessed are your when you persevere under trial,

because you have stood the test,

You will receive the crown of life,

That I the Lord have promised to those who love Me.

-James 1:12

WISDOM COMES FROM GOD ABOVE

Intelligence comes from man’s own efforts.

A Godly Character reflects inclusiveness of others, compassion, patience,

brutal self-examination and honesty.

Charisma is one with flair, influence, and human wit.

It draws others into a web of hope and promise...

...but rarely sacrifices it’s own agenda and comfort.

Child, bow down in a holy fear of My Almighty ability to “scan your inner thoughts” and ask Me to truly renew in you a clean heart, clean motives, and clear pathways.

TO KNOW OF MY WAYS, YOU MUST KNOW ME!

To Know Me, you must spend time with ME.

To spend time with Me, you must purpose, to put aside the lists of things you have to do before you can spend time with Me."

"ORDER YOUR DAYS FIRST IN MY PRESENCE,

and watch the desires of your heart be fulfilled.

Man and his counsel will always fall short of the full truth of My Wisdom.

I have blueprints and a Master plan for so many things yet to build upon in your life."

"COME. LET US WALK AGAIN TOGETHER."

"You are the temple, the house of My Holy Spirit.

I desire to build you up in spiritual strength as you walk in prayer and conversations WITH ME.

"I will fulfill your longing for peace and direction as you step up again

into a heavenly trust and rest."

"PEOPLE WILL CHANGE, MAN WILL FAIL YOU,

Friends will turn, if they are not seeking My Voice above the clamor of the day. And you My child will fail others, if you listen to your own voice of reason and intelligence.

As you turn to Me, you will see My compassion poured out upon you and you will then have My power of pure godly compassion and Wisdom-driven grace to pour out on others."

Seek For Me...

..With all of your heart, your longings, your heartaches, your dreams.

 And I will be there with arms of strength to rescue you from despair.

You will seek me and find me-

When you seek me with all your heart.

Jeremiah 29:13

"PLUMBLINES AND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND THEIR PAINFUL OPPOSITES"

Podcast Powered By Podbean

By Mary Lindow

I am by far not an expert on the subject of plumb lines and righteousness, so take what I say in the light of one who at time gropes like a child in the dark, ever reaching for
the hand of the ONE to lead me into a safe place filled with His Hope, His Mercy, His Light and Life. 


WE LIVE IN A CORRUPT WORLD

And therefore, have the effects and affects of that corruption ever influencing, ever tainting and ever wooing the flesh. 



Plumb line (Definition): a tool that consists of a small, heavy object attached to a string or rope and that is used especially to see if something (such as a wall) is
perfectly vertical or in alignment) A plumb line is a simple but accurate tool used for determining whether or not something is perfectly vertical i.e. upright

The Lord also used, and uses, a “plumbline,” His Word, to determine how upright His people truly are in His sight. How upright they think they are, or how upright they
proclaim themselves to be, means nothing to God.

“Behold, I WILL set a plumbline in the midst of My people”Amos 7:7

A Plumb line set out by the Hand of God is one that we can anchor our hearts to. It will always, always, ALWAYS, direct us to the truth in a matter; even if it requires pain,
loss, persecution and perhaps death in areas we feel we may well have rights to. It will also be a shield, a balm, a comfort and a teacher to those who will yield to the
directive positioning of the Master.

“I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line;” Isaiah 28:17


LIFE – DISTRESS - AND PERSECUTION

I have found that in my life, distress and persecution do not feel like God’s care being poured out on me. My heart is not immediately drawn to thanksgiving and
gratefulness for the faithfulness of God on display as I cling to the battered pieces that look like potential “rafts” of hope, only to find out that many of them have gaping
holes or slow leaks in them. Rather, it feels like yet another hurt is being permanently woven into my tattered and war-torn soul. It seems as if another mound of questions
are piling up and just waiting for an answer and a true solid REAL anchor of hope.


I CAN REALLY CONNECT TO THE WRITER OF PSALM 42

He said “Why are you cast down, O my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me?” It’s at those very times that the words of the Savior are so important. When we are
down and in turmoil. But, how do we connect the dots between what we know is true about God’s faithfulness and what our hearts feel? When flipped and flung around by
the waves, weary from crying and when no answer seems at hand, what is the answer? When my circumstances show many foes and tyrants rising up against me and my
heart is prone to wander and fear, what hope is there of peace? When my feelings start controlling my thoughts, how can I rest in God’s promises?

AT THIS POINT… I HEAR THE “GASPS” …
…And perhaps shocked comments of a few who are amazed that someone who appears to walk so fervently and intimately with the Lord would have such difficulties!
Well! Guess what?

I do struggle, I do hurt, and yes I do doubt when I have been side swiped or “rammed” by skilled cons and those who, although may have the
appearance of godliness and offered friendship or fellowship, end up having private and evil agendas behind their well placed and planned schemes. And boy oh boy! Those
skilled players know the wicked art of wounding the heart and causing people to reel in pain!


BUT…. THERE IS ONE WHO FULLY SEES IT ALL

The main skill in the issue of dealing with life as a spiritual person, is to know how to handle yourself when things not only crush and grind your heart, but what to do with the
anguish and toll of their aftermath.

We have to get ourselves into a place where we hear clearly again. We need have to address ourselves, preach to ourselves, and ask questions about ourselves. We must
say to our soul: ‘Why art thou cast down’–Why are you so anxious and lacking in peace? We must urge ourselves, and say ‘Hope thou in God’–instead of remaining in this
paralyzed, aching state!”


AND THEN WE MUST TAKE IT A STEP FURTHER.

We must go on to remind ourselves just “Who “God is, and what God is and what God has done, and what God has promised that he Himself said that He would do. Having
done that we can stand up and sing out strongly, defying the torment of the soul, and resist other people’s wicked tongues and arrogance, and refuse to go along with the
devil and the whole world, and say: ‘Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, my salvation and my God.”

The hope and promise of the fairness of God’s justice when dealing with the hurtful things and presumptions of others gives me the confidence to know that God will never
turn away from me in my need.

No matter how they seem to prosper in the short term, wicked men and women will ultimately pay for their sins, in this life or the next. Jesus died to meet my greatest
hardships and sorrows for me, and I need to preach this to myself every day. His power is greater than my weariness and suffering. The comforting and instruction that
comes from simply running to feed upon His word instead of the toxic poison of the replaying of trauma reminds me that what Jesus has done is strong enough for my soul
to rejoice in and to be set into a place where it can rest and regroup, gaining a healthy perspective about what to give out to others and what is simply…

…. To be enjoyed by the Lord Himself.


THE NATURAL IMPULSES OF MANKIND ARE SINFUL AND DECEITFUL,

And human willpower alone will never be able to change this. We need God’s help to truly change our hearts. REMEMBER. You cannot change the heart of
anyone else either. If you try to…. …you will feel the bite of stinging venom or be laughed out of a room. Only the power of the conviction of the Holy Spirit can permeate
and get around the jam-packed hardhearted egos of the self sufficient and bitter.

Jeremiah 17:9 says that the human heart is deceitful in all things and is even beyond cure.

We must be cautious and wise in reproving and warning such types of people about their bad behaviors and wicked actions where there seems to be no appearance or hope
of change and where there is danger of experiencing great and heart wrecking retaliation and slander. These types trample the warnings and urging for repentance and
humbling of the heart under their feet, and turn again and slash at you, despising the warnings that are “tearfully and fearfully” given, and often hurt the persons who give
them, either by words or deeds.

“Don’t waste what is holy on people who are unholy.
Don’t throw your pearls to pigs!
They will trample the pearls, then turn and attack you.”
Matthew 7:6


GIVE ME THE FACTS MA’AM JUST THE FACTS”

I remember that phrase from a TV show called “Dragnet”. The detective would not allow the details of the case to be skewed by any assumptions or pontificating from those
he interviewed. He stoically and firmly demanded only the facts.

And so, Here are the “facts” about the heart of a good man or woman

1.) The good man or woman: Brings good things out of the good stored up in his/her heart.

And the facts about an evil man or woman.

2.) The evil man/woman brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his/her heart.
For out of the overflow of his or her heart his or her mouth speaks. Luke 6:45


THE FRAILTY, BRIEFNESS, AND INSECURITY OF LIFE

The frailty, briefness, and insecurity of life, should hold down the vanity and presumptuous confidence of all of our projects and boasting about future greatness and
bragging rights!

We are always to depend on the will and leading of God. Our times are not in our own hands, but are instead in the timing of God. Our heads may be filled with cares and
plans for ourselves, or our families, or our friends; but Divine intervention often throws our plans into bewilderment.

All we have in mind, and all we do, should be with a humble and deep dependence on God. It is foolish, and it is hurtful, to boast of trendy “latest happening” things and
prospective projects, and it will bring great disappointment and will prove destructive to relationships and meaningful help to others in the end.

1 John 2:16 “For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure,
a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions.
These are not from the Father, but are from this world.”


LISTEN KINDLY - BEFORE SPEAKING YOUR THOUGHTS

People don’t need a lecture on the meaning of suffering or to have a barrage of scriptures “machine-gunned” at them as a reprimand for sharing their moment of grief or
struggle! Especially when their hearts are breaking, weary of the battle and if they are fatigued. Job could have done without some of the self-righteous answers that came
from his “well-meaning” friends. All of the answers could have even been true, but Job didn’t need to hear any of them. He needed their love, not their value judgments. In
fact, it appears as if God judged THEM for trying to offer simple solutions to things that were beyond their comprehension. They had never walked in the loss he was in
anguish over.



WHEN WE SUFFER UNJUSTLY WE HAVE A MAJOR CHOICE TO MAKE.

How will we respond? We can feel sorry for ourselves (and understandably so, for a while), become bitter and cynical, get drawn into a war of words, or even become mixed
up in a major conflict. On the other hand, we can take our suffering to the cross and allow our pain to draw us into a deeper place of understanding of what Jesus went
though in his sufferings. This does not remove the pain, but does help us to know what to do with our hurt. This is the ‘fellowship of his sufferings’ (Philippians 3:10), one of
the gateways to closeness with God and the release of his power in our lives.

The weight of heartbreak shared with a loving friend cuts it in half. When the burden is shared with many friends, we can cope with almost anything. We never feel more
revitalized than when a friend loves us enough to walk with us in our pain. Not lecture us. The apostle Paul wrote these words to the church in Corinth:

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,
who comforts us in all our troubles,
so that we can comfort those in any trouble
with the comfort we ourselves have received from God”
(1 Corinthians 1.3-4).



SOMETIMES GOD GETS INVOLVED WITH DIRECT MIRACLES,

…Giving supernatural strength to those in need. But for the most part, he depends on us, his people, to do his work in the world.
We love each other, work for healing, and suffer with those who suffer.

The next time you see a friend who is suffering, Jesus may just invite you to be the warm embrace! We comfort each other with the comfort we have received in Christ. And
when we do, we become the Body of Christ and he receives the glory!


THE BIBLE IS CLEAR

We are to bear one another’s burdens.
We are to comfort others as Christ has given comfort to us.
Your hard time becomes my hard time. We join hands in the journey.

When you succeed, I succeed.
When you suffer, I suffer.
But we do it together. We share it together.
And we do it, not so much in our wisdom or our words, but in our availability, our understanding, and through our presence.



THAT’S WHAT FELLOWSHIP IS ALL ABOUT,

But not “bland” fellowship. It is CHRISTIAN fellowship. It is the business of burden bearing. Authentic CHRISTIAN fellowship says that when you need me . . . I’ll be there.
Support in suffering is at the core of what it means to share life together in Christ.

The word for “comfort” is the same root word as the name Jesus used to describe one of the functions of the Holy Spirit in our lives (Paraclete). “I will be a comforter, one
who comes alongside to give help.” And so as God comes alongside you, now you are able to come alongside another. As the Comforter is at work within you, so you also
can be of comfort to those around you.



WE ARE CALLED TO BEAR ONE ANOTHER’S BURDENS.

To mourn with those who mourn. To be a follower of Jesus means to come alongside people who are hurting and find ways to help them walk even through the valley of the
shadow of death.

We are called…

… To do this.

As the word of God and care of God is shared with the intention of stirring, plowing up hardened hearts, creating a place for repentance and challenging saints to hope again,
I know and believe that as we learn again as believers, to care, to truly listen and to hope fully again, that the sweet and heavy weight of HIS Glory will be made known and
will manifest in unfettered and uncontrolled waves of worship and spontaneous adoration of the King of Heaven. 



He really does know what He wants. 

Let’s focus on bowing low and seeking His heart, and plans in what matters to Him.

Indeed… HE is the Plumb line.

“WE PREPARE HIM A PLACE”

Podcast Powered By Podbean

By Mary Lindow

"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
Psalm 139:14

WE ARE STRANGE AND EXQUISITE CREATURES.
We can ache for God tremendously; yet find ourselves getting nervous if God gets too close! After all, the closer God gets, the more we hear the call to be “unpolluted”.

It is both exciting and frightening to hear that call!


A STORY
“Once upon a time there was a little plant that was small and whose growth was stunted, for it lived under the shade of a giant oak tree.

The little plant valued the shade that covered it and highly enjoyed and lavished the quiet rest that it’s majestic friend provided. Yet there was a greater blessing prepared for this little plant.

One day a lumberjack entered the forest with a sharp ax and cut down the giant oak! The little plant began to weep, crying out, “My shelter has been taken away”. Now every fierce wind will blow on me, and every storm will seek to uproot me!”

The guardian angel of the little plant responded, “NO! Now the sun will shine and showers will fall on you more abundantly than ever before! Now your stunted form will spring up into loveliness, and your flowers, which could never have grown to full perfection in the shade, will laugh in the sunshine. Many will say, look how that plant has grown. How gloriously beautiful it has become by removing that which was it’s shade and comfort!


THE TRAINING OF A SPIRITUAL COMRADE
We need to see that the Lord wisely trains his soldiers by calling them to difficult travels and service. He strengthens them through wildernesses and mountains. God knows that spiritually armed Soldiers can only be developed in battle and are not developed in times of calm. We can only become true seasoned soldiers of Christ when we train and serve in the preparation time of the inhospitable surroundings.


TRUST FOR A SEASON!
It's all about trusting God in the end. Oh yes it is!
We often ask in the heat of difficult battles whether they are mental battles, spiritual battles, and financial battles…
”Will He REALLY refresh us in this time of struggle?”
His Loving Word says so.

“For I satisfy the weary ones
And refresh everyone who languishes."
Jer. 31:25


THE LORD IS PRODUCING STAMINA…
…WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT!
“Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial;
For once he has been approved,
He will receive the crown of life,
Which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.”
James 1:12

THE FATHER IS URGING US TO RUN TO HIM, TO CRY TO HIM!
He is there! Even in this fog of struggle, loss, anxiety, or seeming success! He wants us to be desperate for Him and is training us to rely on His voice. To make our decisions based on His plan for the whole earth!

TIE YOURSELF TO THE HAND OF GOD!
Get a "rope of expectation"(the word of God) and tie yourself to it.
Hold on! The boding evil is nearly over!

“The night is nearly over; the day is almost here.
So let us put aside the deeds of darkness
And put on the armor of light.”
Romans 13:12

INTIMATE PLACE OF COMMUNICATION
It would be a powerful opportunity for all of us to get on our knees in an “intimate place of communication” with the Lord, and refresh our commitment to purity, and with a willing heart to yield to the bidding of the Father.

They charge like warriors; they scale walls like soldiers.
They all march in line, not swerving from their course.
Joel 2:7


LET OUR HEARTS WILLINGLY...
…Give Him Room to Move Freely in our daily actions in this Life.

We do this by clearing away or removing anything that feeds and pampers our flesh and our own concepts of the Kingdom.

WE PREPARE HIM A PLACE
At throne in our hearts from which He can reign
and activate His anointing.

"No one serving as a soldier gets involved in civilian affairs—
He wants to please his commanding officer."
2 Timothy 2:4

1 John 2:27
"As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about all things and as that anointing is real, not counterfeit—just as it has taught you, remain in him."

“THEN THE FIRE OF THE LORD FELL…”

Podcast Powered By Podbean

By the Holy Spirit through Mary Lindow

In one of His most confrontational statements Jesus said,
“I have come to bring fire on the earth.”

There are times in the Scripture in which fire is a symbol of judgment but in the great majority of references fire is used to point out God’s divine presence. His words make it clear that the meaning behind His words, “I have come to bring fire” refers to something more than a cozy flame to cuddle up to!

In this unique statement from Jesus the fire He is speaking of is not literally fire as in flames but a spiritual representation. He is speaking of the burning, exciting, dynamic presence of God in the lives of people. The fire that illuminates His incredible presence, produces unlimited power, burns away the dross and impurities and attracts people to Him. That is the Fire of God.


THE FIRE OF GOD IS NOT GIVEN TO MAKE US COZY…

…But holy, and to stir us up. When Moses saw the burning bush God first warned him that he was standing on holy ground, and then told him of the great thing He was about to do, to release Israel from the captivity of Pharaoh (Ex 3).

When Isaiah was in the temple and it filled with smoke of the burning holiness of God, his awareness of being unclean came first, before God equipped him to be His messenger.
When God’s fire comes to the hearts of men and women their spirits are freed from the awful bondage of idolatry. When God’s fire comes, the enemy will be destroyed. That is why we should pray, “O, Lord ---send the fire. Your fire. Send your consuming, changing, restoring, victorious fire!”


WE SING ABOUT THE FIRE OF GOD IN MANY OF OUR HYMNS.

There is a song I have known for years that says,

“Oh, Lord, you’re beautiful. Your face is all I seek.
For when your eyes are on this child, your grace abounds to me.

O Lord, please light the fire, which once burned bright and clear,
replace the lamp of my first love, that burned with holy fear.”



OH, MAY OUR PRAYER BE HEARD!

“Lord, send your fire! May we sense and know Your burning, exciting, dynamic presence in our lives and among Your people.”



“OH HOW YOU FEAR THE FIRE!” - A PROPHETIC WORD

“It is as if you think that I might truly do something unloving
to burn you or disfigure you!

I am a God of fire! Yes! But a HOLY fire! 
A fire that burns away wood, hay, and dead scraps lying around
in your heart. They are littering the places that I want to bring My Glory into!

When My Fire pursues you it drives away any voice or lust or 
any other enemy of your soul! You will come to a place where
you no longer need to have the splash of fanfare or the
rumblings of the earth to know that I Am in your presence!

Instead. 
The Fire brings you to a place just like it did Moses!
He saw My Holy Fire in a bush on a hill. 
I spoke to Him and told Him He was on HOLY ground!

"Is not my word like fire," declares the LORD, 

"And like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?”

Jeremiah 23:29

I was a still, small voice, speaking out from inside of a fire!

Listen! 
I am calling out to you! Be quiet! 
Silence the noise around you! 
Get quiet with Me. 
Put away the busyness that you get caught up into!

After the “Fire” a still small voice. 
1Kings19: 12

My passion Fire is calling out to You!
I have things I want to whisper into your spirit-man! 
I have words that will sustain you through all of the
fiery trials and tests you will inevitably pass through!

“If this is so, 

Then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials.” 

2 Peter 2:9

If you want the Fire of I the Living God to be evident

in your ministry, whether it is in the marketplace, the home,
or abroad, Listen to My still small voice.

It will in turn resound like a roaring ocean to those whom
you will minister to.

“O Lord of hosts, 

How blessed is the man who trusts in You!”

Psalms 84: 12

Trust. 
The issue that everyone on earth deals with day in and day out. 
Putting your trust in things that last for only a season or a few years can be very risky and very disappointing.

I have told My people to trust in ME with ALL of their heart
and I will make their paths straight. Yet - continually they put
their trust in people, and idols made of gold, positions of power, 
and in themselves and invented doctrines of seasonal passing!

Lasting blessings can only come from trusting in Me. 

The real issue is that you don’t really think that I will do
what I say I will do!

So... You take it into your own hands!
When you finally lay down your need to control those all around you
and trust in Me, then you will be blessed!
Blessed with safety, peace of mind and above all
blessed by My pleasure in your resting in My plan.

“See to it that you do not refuse HIM who is speaking!” 

Hebrews 12:25

Oh how many times My people have said to Me, 

“Later Lord! I will do it Later?” 
You exhort others to obey quickly and yet you will drag your
feet and put Me off until you “feel” like following through!

“It is the LORD your God you must follow, 
and him you must revere.

Keep his commands and obey him; 
serve him and hold fast to him.” 
Deuteronomy 13:4

Do not refuse Me when I speak to you
when I send you to do
something in My Name! You might fear for your own reputation, 
but a life could be hanging in the balance!


You do not have the luxury of “denying your King!”
If you wish to be caught up into higher dimensions in My Spirit, 
and, if you long for the deep that calls unto deep, be faithful
to ACT when I give you a command!!”

Psalm 119:57
“You are my portion, O LORD; 

I have promised to obey your words.”

Psalm 119:60
I will hasten and not delay to obey your commands.
