A CALL TO READINESS
Word submitted to encourage you by Yolanda Ballard (roarnworship@cfl.rr.com)

Take up your cup and your lamp and follow Me, and I will take you on a journey that will establish in you My perfect will, and you will begin to see why you had to go through the hardships and the stretchings of the past. This is the day I will establish in you My plan, and I will bring it forth through you, for I am calling forth a people who have been prepared in the oven of My burning love. You have watched My hand mold you and prepare you, though the heat at times seemed unbearable. You have seen My grace, My enabling power, bring you through every time where you were able to stand unwavering with head set like flint against the evil one.

You need to be like a dog with a bone, never letting go of My promises, when the forces of darkness come against you trying to rob you. Be bold, be strong, for the Lord thy God is with you. Be not dismayed for I Am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. I will uphold you with the right hand of My righteousness. With all that in mind I want you to rejoice for no weapon formed against you will prosper. I Am your healer. I will not allow man to come against you to destroy the seed of faith I planted within you. And it will grow and develop a bumper crop of My glory and grace. And My word will spread like wild fire for I have prepared you in the oven of My glory.

Reach out this day and touch Me and know that I am faithful. Do not look at the circumstances surrounding you and become discouraged. Look up for your redemption draws nigh. For this is the day to shout and to rejoice and to proclaim My victory in the land. For didn't I give My life that you would be free, My people? Was it just a spiritual freedom or was it a birthing of a new man…..mind, soul and spirit?

And I am calling forth My bride to be My messagers of My glory and grace. Shout the alarm. Proclaim a fast to draw close to My holy presence. Draw near and I will fill your cup to overflowing, and I will trim your lamp that it will burn brightly. Do not let anything stand in your way for this is the day of salvation to set the captives free to be all that I have called them to be. For I love those who I gave My life for.

And I will walk mightily through My holy ones, and I will pull down the strongholds of the evil one, and I will set up My kingdom, My glory and My power forever. For you stand on the side of freedom and might. Do not be dismayed, but be filled this day with My glory and might. Stay covered with My armor of light, and My joy will crush the evil one under your feet as you are shielded with My perfect peace. Proclaim My victory in the land, and wave your banner for your King reigns supreme. No power can stand against the Lamb of God, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace.

Remain silent in your flesh, but bring forth a raging fire using My words spoken through your spirit. The power through My words will bring down the enemy's camp like the walls of Jericho falling. And you will see My glory spread and people running from the enemy towards My light and love. For I am calling forth My harvesters to reap the bumper crop. Proclaim the victory! And not only will I bring forth a harvest for My glory, but I will crush the enemy under My feet.

Look past the cloud of darkness sweeping across the land. Look past it, and see My light and My glory. Keep your eyes on My promises and what I plan to do. I will bring amazement to those who do not know Me. They will not deny that I AM the King of Glory, and that I reign supreme. I will bring all men to their knees, and all will acknowledge that I AM Lord before the final judgment. But not all will receive Me even then, but know that all men will have the freedom to choose life or death, blessing or cursing. Just be sensitive to My leading, and share My light and My love to all.

Reach out and touch Me and stay by My side, and I will bring you through safely for no man can steal My promise of eternal salvation from your heart. For yes, you will dwell with Me forever. So fear not and go forth and take the land. Keep your eyes on Me and never let go. No matter what you see, waver not in unbelief. Look past the natural and stand behind your shield and use your sword and trample down the enemy. For I am calling forth My army to march across the land. One that will not bow down to the enemy's devices. For they overcome by the blood of the Lamb, the word of their testimony, and they love not their lives unto death.

I uphold you, I strengthen you, and I send you out this day to tear down, to build up, and to reap all I gave My life for. Go out and take the land. I put My armor upon you. I clothe you in My glory to blind the enemy and to bring confusion to his camp. I am commissioning the young ones to be strong. I am raising up the elderly to be mighty. Not one will be left out, because I move through all My holy ones. So connect together, and be one in spirit and purpose. Do not allow the enemy to divide you no matter what. Be strong in your marriages. Love your children. Respect those in leadership. And be ready, says your King.

Are You READY ?

“Are you ready for war beloveds ? Is your armor on ? Do you have My strength for battle. For I tell you the intensity of it will be great, and you must have CONFIDENCE in MY ability more than the devil’s ability, and you must count all the suffering as JOY compared to the reward of what is coming to you, in the end, of MY GLORY.

The time has come to stand, and is soon upon you for great battle. I want you to drink of MY PRESENCE more than that of the world’s right now, to increase communion with ME. Come away with ME, and let me minister to you as you minister to ME. I so long for you My beloveds ! You are the apple of My eye and I love to be with you. I love it when you speak your love to ME.
Don’t think that I don’t see everything that is going on.

The new world order proceeds with their plans for annihilating My people, but I have plans that many don’t know of to spoil some of their plans. Are you willing to come to me and listen to MY VOICE over the din of all the bad news and changes ? For I have so much to share with you and to show you.
Remember always that you are strangers here, and that a NEW WORLD is coming, that of MY KINGDOM over all the kingdoms of this world ! My KINGDOM has more power. YOUR GOD is greater and the waves of MY PRESENCE will soon wash away the filth of the daughters of Jerusalem who are willing to receive the washing of the Holy Spirit that I have planned. For I will cleanse My garden and empower My beloveds for the war that is at hand.

I will give you all you need to get through what I have called you to. But you must walk in HOLINESS. You must walk in MY righteousness, not your own !
I am the LORD and there is noone else who can help you in this hour. Do not be deceived, for deception in this nation is great in this hour and many lies pervade the media and the minds of those who are unsanctified. But I have a demonstration of MY GLORY coming that will usher many into the KINGDOM. Continue to repent for the sins of the nation and the church, and continue to pray for AWAKENING for I am sending a WAVE of MY SPIRIT like has never been seen before since Pentacost.”

Then I heard the song “ Blow the trumpet in Zion, Zion ! Sound the alarm on My holy mountain !”

“Awaken oh sleepers and rise from the dead, and Christ will rise upon you !”

Joel 2:1-2 KJV Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand; 2 A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

THE TRUMPET by Bill Burns--Set a watch for the enemy, for he will come to sow seeds of discord and discouragement. He will spread his lies and cause you to fear. But, I say, do not forget the LORD. I am more powerful than all the works of the enemy, and I will encourage you and be with you. Encourage yourself in the LORD, even as David did, and you shall recover all. You shall receive back all that has been stolen or lost to the enemy. You will overrun his camp if you will dare to believe and if you will rise up, take up the sword and shield, put the helmet upon your head, and go forth in faith, then you will overtake the enemy and plunder his camp. You shall be victorious, for this is My purpose. I came to destroy the works of the enemy, and I have made an open show of him and disarmed him. You must only declare that by My power and by My deed he is defeated. No weapon formed against you shall prosper. Only believe and rise up. Rise up! Run to the battle, and I will give you the victory, says the Lord.

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by Marsha Burns--Look up, beloved, for I tell you truly that the clouds of confusion are going to part and and you will step into the clear light of day. You are about to see with great clarity. The issues that have caused to you wonder what to do next will become crystal clear, and you will know exactly what your next step must be. Answers to your questions will come suddenly, but might not be what you expected. Get ready to receive, says the Lord. 1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.
