Rise up and meet your enemy, for he has come up against you to bring discouragement and defeat. Refuse to allow his tactics to bring you down, for you shall have the victory if you stand strong in faith. Do not give up or become a victim of your circumstances. Call on the Lord of the host of heaven to send His angels to help in your time of trouble, says the Lord. Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Romans 4:20-21 He (Abraham) did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what He had promised He was also able to perform.

At the King's Gate in 2008

At the King’s Gate in 2008:

Being Properly Positioned at the King’s Gate in 2008
Last year the Lord spoke to me and said that we were to believe in “Open heavens in 2007 to be positioned to go through the gate in 2008.” What I have witnessed in this calendar year of 2007 (the Gregorian calendar) is a “ Bethel experience.” By that I am referring to Jacob who, on his way to Haran , came to a certain place and had a dream where God opened the heavens and revealed His covenant with mankind.
Each of us as believers have been brought to that same certain place. A certain place is defined scripturally not only as a space, but also as a “standing place.” In other words, God leads us into specific circumstances to empower us to “stand” upon a new revelation. When God opens the heavens and reveals a particular part of His covenant, or prophetic promise, we must also take a firm stand in that revelatory place! Many of us are experiencing times when it appears that we are not experiencing the fullness of God’s covenant, but listen to me! Some of us are in the process of cycling out of old patterns of captivity. And, as a prophetess of God, I am saying to you, just as Jeremiah sent a message to those in Babylonian captivity, God says for you to BUILD! Yes, begin to build, begin to plant and make plans to live and reproduce! Though it looks one way in the natural, we can count on the faithfulness of God. He is opening the heavens for us to prosper and we must begin to stand upon His Word. Our sure weapon in this season is the Sword of the Lord, His sure Word!

God is Turning Things Around on Your Behalf!

If you have been in a hard place, know today that the Lord is turning things around on your behalf. Regardless of what type of captivity you have experienced, God is opening the heavens for you. We are living in the same prophetic times as when Jeremiah wrote to those in Babylonian captivity and encouraged them to keep on living for God. The prophet encouraged them with the word of the Lord and said for them to BUILD and PLANT! Yes! God instructed His children to refuse to focus on their circumstances, but to rather build, plant and reproduce right where they were until He released them.
Dear Ones, God indeed wants to cycle you out of captivity and out of your wilderness. However, until the process of “cycling out” is completed, we must continue to believe God and build upon His promises- right where we are. I am not saying to settle in; I am encouraging you to build for God while in the midst of trials and tribulations. The devil will always bring trouble- sometimes “double trouble”- but if we focus on the problem and not the Problem-Solver, then we get self- focused. Self- focused saints murmur and complain and then become consumed with self-pity. Self-pity is dangerous because we open our mouths and speak things which should never be spoken. Remember, the power of life and death are in the tongue; so let’s be careful with what we say as God is shifting us into seasons of blessing. To speak negatively could even affect our future, thus keeping us in the wilderness even longer!
Let’s look at what Jeremiah said to those in Babylonian captivity:

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, unto all that are carried away captives, whom I have caused to be carried away from Jerusalem unto Babylon; Build ye houses, and dwell in them; and plant gardens, and eat the fruit of them; 6 Take ye wives, and beget sons and daughters; and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, that they may bear sons and daughters; that ye may be increased there, and not diminished. And seek the peace of the city whither I have caused you to be carried away captives, and pray unto the LORD for it: for in the peace thereof shall ye have peace. (Jeremiah 29:4-7 KJV)

A Place of “Arising”

When referring to that certain place where God led Jacob, it is not only a place to take a firm stand, but it is also a place to arise. The Lord opened the heavens to Jacob and showed him a ladder which reached from heaven to earth with angels ascending and descending. The last time I studied this passage, I heard Him say that when He opens the heavens, at any time, and releases divine revelation, that angels ascend and descend upon that “ladder” of revelation. I know that Jesus is the ladder that connected heaven to earth, but in the natural a ladder is used to reach a new level. Revelation comes down from heaven and touches earth. However, we can each “ascend” in faith and relationship with the Father to receive revelation to change our earth. If we want to begin to transform our world, we need to first touch heaven and hear from God. Revelation empowers us with authority to arise from where we are and take a firm stand on God’s covenant promises.

Making a Vow

Jacob realized that God was in that certain time and place of his life and, as a result, he arose, built an altar unto God and vowed to give God a tenth of all he had. Thus, the principle of tithing to the Lord was practiced. (I do not wish to get into a debate concerning tithing. My point is that Jacob made a vow). A vow is important to God. I believe He leads us to certain places and into certain circumstances where we do make vows. Each of us has made God a vow. Most likely when we were saved, we vowed to God that we would serve him all of our life. Dear Ones, if we do not arise today and stand, the enemy will come to steal our vow!
Delilah seduced Samson and his vow to the Lord. I have written extensively about this very subject in my new book Destroying the Threefold Demonic Cord: Discerning and Defeating Jezebel, Athaliah and Delilah ( to be released in January 2008) which exposes how the stronghold of Delilah attempts to steal our vows to God. When we go through difficult times, or seasons when God is releasing us from captivity, it is easy to be seduced by a false voice. Satan will attempt to come to us with a false prophetic word and lead us in a wrong direction. He is an “evil messenger” with “evil messages” and if not on alert we will believe the lies of the enemy and , thus , be seduce d away from our vows. Dear Ones, hear me today! The enemy has evil messages being sent to the gates of your lives.

Evil Messengers

Watchmen on the wall look for two things- invading troops and messengers (discerning who to let in the gate and who to keep out??) . We need to be on high alert levels concerning the evil messengers who attempt to invade the gates of our thoughts. If the enemy gets control of our minds and thoughts, he will seduce us and strip us of all determination to go through the gates in 2008.
Jezebel never saw Elijah face to face. She sent “evil messages” to him through her “messenger.” Dear Ones, the devil doesn’t have to stare us in the eye- he just sends demons to us to speak into our thoughts and then invades our imaginations! The result is a “vain imagination.” It is the same thing that happened to Elijah when he received Jezebel’s evil message ; he “saw that”. This means he imagined himself dead! Elijah saw, in his mind and imagination, his defeat by Jezebel’s hand and as a result he took off running in the opposite direction of his destiny!
And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword. 2 Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time. 3 And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba , which belongeth to Judah , and left his servant there. 4 But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers. 1 Kings 19:1-4 KJV

How often have we entertained the same vain imaginations and thus detained our destiny? A vain imagination is described by Paul as an empty, foolish or fruitless thought. (See Romans 1:21). The voice of the enemy is always null and void of power unless we give it a place, or a seated position of authority. Saints of the Most High, it is time to guard the gates of our thoughts and minds.

Establishing God’s Government in 2008

According to the prophetic word given to Judah , the scepter would remain in his hand. This meant that Judah would shift and establish government, that the tribe of Judah would remain in authority forever. Since Judah means praise, then we can also say the “praise shifts and establishes government!” The gate in 2008 involves divine government in our individual lives first and, then, we can shift the atmosphere around us.
If we need God’s divine order established, then we also need His government in operation. Saints, we can establish God’s government if we begin to be a people of praise. I know it sounds too simple, but it is true. The Lord has always planned that we rule and reign- it began in the Garden when he gave Adam dominion. However, it was also prophesied over Judah, one of the sons of Jacob, that he (and his descendents) would rule over the land. This is one way that we learn to arise and stand in our positions of authority- through praising His name and worshiping Him.
David was from the tribe of Judah and he established the Tabernacle of David which had ongoing praise 24 hours a day. Jesus’ genealogy is traced back to the same as David’s, the tribe of Judah which holds the ruling scepter. So, since are engrafted into the lineage of Jesus, this must be our calling also.

It’s All About the Kingdom
At the entrance of every kingdom, there is some type of gate. A gate provides an entrance, but also a method of keeping others out. It opens up to those who are to be included in the city and then closes to intruders and enemies. One of the most famous stories of a gatekeeper was Mordecai who sat at the king’s gate. This particular gate was the door to the court and government of the city. So, in all actuality, Mordecai guarded the courts of the king. What an awesome position for a believer to have, yet an incredible responsibility. Imagine an intercessor stationed at the door of the court system and having to spiritually “watch” over that gate. It is not known if he was given this position of honor before or after Esther came to the throne, but we do know that his position at the king’s gate empowered him to “checkmate” Haman, an Amalelkite and enemy of the Jews.
While on watch at his gate, Mordecai discovered a plot to kill the king. After disclosing the plan of assassination to Queen Esther, he was later honored by the King Ahasuerus. A quick study of Mordecai at the “king’s gate” will empower us during our transition into 2008.

In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king’s gate, two of the king’s chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the door, were wroth, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. 22And the thing was known to Mordecai, who told it unto Esther the queen; and Esther certified the king thereof in Mordecai’s name. 23And when inquisition was made of the matter, it was found out; therefore they were both hanged on a tree: and it was written in the book of the chronicles before the king. (Esther 2:21 KJV)

Gatekeepers and gate watchers, hear me! The enemy is seeking to seduce you away from your gate assignments! Mordecai had enemies who sought to kill him- just as we have devils today who seek to destroy us because we are busy watching over the “King’s business!” One of Mordecai’s enemies was named “Bisthan” which means “winepress” and the name of the other was “Teresh” which means “strictness.” When I think of my enemies (as in demonic spirits) today I am reminded of how difficult it is to stand at the gate of “doing the King’s business” when God has me in the winepress.

I also believe that there are demons that are on assignment to “press and pressure” when God has us in His divine time of “the squeeze.” The “divine squeeze” is when all that is not of God is squeezed out. If not careful, evil messengers come at that vulnerable time and lie to us; thus, an enemy waits to seduce us from our vows to God. Then, there are those demons of “strictness” that lie in wait to deliver evil messages! You have heard them also; I’m sure of it. They are messages of “legalism, performance and spiritual perfectionism.” These evil messengers also come at a time when God is doing a deep work in our hearts. Aren’t you glad that God has determined to always deliver us from our enemies? Just as He destroyed Mordecai’s evil messengers (actually had them hanged on a tree), He will do the same for us since He is no respecter of persons.


At the King’s Gate We Can Gain Influence

Today, in order to shift our own personal government, we will have to realize that we are in the winepress. God is extracting new wine and applying strict pressure. New boundaries in God are becoming rediscovered, and there is “strictness,” a straight path that we are to follow. The enemy perverts God’s expectations for us. By this I am referring to Jesus ’ example of encouraging us to go through the “straight gate.” Matthew 7:13 says:
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: (KJV)

So, spiritually there is a straight path that can be referred to as a “strict” lifestyle, yet still not “legalism.” Relationship with God is what we are to seek- not religion. Religion binds us with rules and laws. When we are seeking religion we obey laws rather than obeying instruction based on relationship.
What is happening within our court systems is on our watch. We must become a disciplined army, strictly becoming obedient- yet not legalistic. Satan attempts to twist the truth concerning the winepress. A winepress is used during harvest. It is a time of rejoicing when wine and harvest has come. He will pervert all this is good and make it appear hard and ugly.
Now, back to our story …Mordecai called attention to these two chamberlains who sought to murder the king and sounded the alarm. As a prophetic people, we must sound the alarm and alert others to Satan’s position at the king’s gate. Satan’s plan is to assassinate the Truth of God, dilute the Truth and cause us to fear freedom in Christ. Many would rather be bound up with legalism than free in Christ because it appears easier to follow “rules and strict guidelines.” Mordecai was later rewarded for protecting the king. If we also remain at our gates, our assigned positions, we will be rewarded in God ’ s timing.

Positioning for Shifting Government

Unless we are positioned properly, we will not experience the shifting which needs to occur in our lives. If we are at the right place at the right time, then certain exposure can occur to uncover the plans of the enemy so that we can overpower him in the Spirit.
After Mordecai exposed his enemies at the king’s gate, he later discovered another plot of destruction. This time it was a plot hatched by the evil workings of one named Haman. Haman had manipulated the king into destroying the Jews and was placed in authority over Mordecai. Haman would parade himself through the streets of the city and expected others to bow in respect. Mordecai had determined to only bow to God. This act was considered humiliating by Haman, so he vindictively plotted to destroy not only Mordecai but all of the Jews.

When Mordecai found out about the plan, he dressed himself in sackcloth and ashes and went throughout the city. He went as far as the king’s gate while still dressed in sackcloth and ashes. History records the fact that it was illegal to be at the king’s gate without having on the proper garments. In other words, Mordecai committed a crime, so to speak, for approaching that gate without the proper uniform. It would be like someone showing up at a United States Air Base dressed as a civilian and attempting to see the General in charge of a secret operation! However, still knowing it was illegal to be at the king’s gate dressed in this manner, Mordecai seemed to make a beeline toward the king’s gate to make a statement. Mordecai, even before Esther’s act of self-sacrifice, first laid down his life to shift the government and nullify the death assignment.

When Esther heard that Mordecai was dressed this way, she sent a change of clothes. Esther knew it could mean certain death if Mordecai was found to have assumed this position and was not dressed properly. Mordecai refused to change clothing and, instead, sent word to the queen concerning the evil plans of Haman to destroy all of the Jews. His refusal to take off his sackcloth was a radical statement which got Esther’s immediate attention.
Mordecai reminded Esther of her own blood heritage and reminded her that it was possible that God brought her to the kingdom “for such a time as this” to shift government and issue new decrees. As a result of Mordecai’s position at the king’s gate, his refusal to change garments and his intercession there, Esther chose a fast and became determined to approach the king on behalf of all of the Jews.

Laying Down Our Lives at the Gate in 2008

Wow! Talking about shifting government at the gates! We give a lot of credit to Esther, who laid down her life to approach the king. But, what about Mordecai? He also laid down his life at the gate. As I mentioned earlier, when Haman would ride by on his horse, Mordecai was expected to “bow down” to him, but Mordecai refused- thus placing his life on the line. We also must refuse to bow to any evil plan of the enemy and, if necessary, position ourselves at the gates in sackcloth and ashes , remain at our assigned gates and continue to watch.

The Year of “All Things” in 2008

As we go through new gates in 2008, let’s remember that “all things” are possible to those of us who believe in His Word. I heard the Lord say to me that 2008 was a year of “all things.” Each of us needs to do a study on those words and war over our promises. I will list a few for us to “stand on” and “arise” in spiritual fortitude as He leads us to a certain place and a certain gate. Do not listen to the evil messengers who would attempt to seduce you from achieving your destiny.


I have listed a few of the promises concerning “all things.” Stand on these prophetic promises to go through your gate in 2008:
1. All things are possible in 2008!
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26 KJV)
2. All things will be restored!
And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. (Matthew 17:11 KJV)
3. All prayers are answered:
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. (Matthew 21:22 KJV)

4. We are to observe all things Jesus has taught us!
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matthew 28:18-20 KJV)
5. Do not have fear at your gate! You are empowered to “ bear, believe hope and endure” at the gate in 2008!
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. ([3]1 Corinthians 13:6-7 KJV)

6. The number “8” means new beginnings. 2008 is the year that all things become new!



Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV)

7. The enemy is under your feet at your gate of enlargement. Go through the gate in 2008!

And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, (Ephesians 1:22 KJV)

8. The Spirit of God will reveal “the deep things” to you in 2008.
But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. (1 Corinthians 2:10 KJV).

Let’s determine to not simply go through the gate in 2008, but also be properly positioned in 2008. Go for it! All things are possible!


THE END

December 6, 2007 Life's mystery. You are doing well. I see you struggling like all the rest with how to live in the world and yet not be of the world. You have already discovered that your walk with Me is an individual walk. No one can do it for you. You must ultimately choose for yourself what seems best. I have been fine tuning your spirit so that you can properly discern between good and evil, the high or the low road, God or mammon. Rest and be assured that My Spirit has been placed within your spirit so that you have the mind of Christ moment by moment. This gives you enormous wisdom and power. All you have to do is listen to your spirit or heart for it is good and has been well trained. Now go seize every moment for Me. Your reward will be great. Life's mystery. Matthew 6:24 "No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will stand by and be devoted to the one and despise and be against the other. You cannot serve God and mammon ( deceitful riches, money, possessions, or whatever is trusted in). Amplified. Ras Robinson

In the study of Quantum Physics one learns that each of us has a frequency. Yours is different from any others. The Lord is waiting to hear from you and says, "You are precious in my sight. I know you by name and the hairs of your head are numbered. I desire to hear your voice and your thoughts to Me. Tell Me all your concerns. Remember all the things in the past I have done on your behalf. I have bailed you out time and time again. You asked forgiveness and called to Me and I answered. You did not get what you deserved. I am waiting to hear you. Isaiah 30:18 "Therefore the LORD longs to be gracious to you, And therefore He waits on high to have compassion on you. For the LORD is a God of justice; How blessed are all those who long for Him. Bev Robinson.

Make Your Heart a Manger
Dec 6th, 2007

Luke 2:7 NKJV And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in
Swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger , because there was no room for them in the inn.

Luke 2:16-19 NKJV And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe
Lying in a manger . 17 Now when they had seen Him, they made widely known the saying
Which was told them concerning this Child. 18 And all those who heard it marveled at those
Things which were told them by the shepherds. 19 But Mary kept all these things and
Pondered them in her heart.


" Beloveds, I want you to make your hearts a manger where I will be welcome in the fullness
Of Who I AM, and all that I AM.
You have been told many times that I am coming with MORE
Of My presence and power. You have believed, and you are eager to receive. But I am trying
To get your heart cleansed enough of other things in the way of receiving all that I have for
You.

John 12:24 AMP I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, Unless a grain of wheat falls into the
Earth and dies, it remains [just one grain; it never becomes more but lives] by itself alone.
But if it dies, it produces many others and yields a rich harvest.


I am bringing many to the total death of self required to bring forth new life in Me.
Many have only a portion because they have only given a portion of their heart
To Me, not their whole heart. You give what you feel comfortable to give up, and you
Say you have given it all, but you take back control, every hour, every day, on and on.
So you have not totally given everything to Me. You have some rearranging to do to
Fully give ALL of who you are, all your heart, all your desires to ME in order to fully
Obey.

So bring your full mind to the idea of complete surrender beloveds, for this is where
There is REAL REST, and true freedom. You think somehow I'm going to put more on you
Than you can stand, but I do know what I am doing. I want at least a heart yieldedness.
Many give what they think is needed, but are unbending when I tell you to go do something.
You hesitate and withhold, you balk, and you falter, because you are double-minded and
So you refuse to fully obey My words. I want the enemy off of your WHOLE SOUL.
Unless he has NO GROUND in your soul, you are not fully free to obey, because there is
Constant resistance, and opposition.

I've told you that the TRUTH will set you free.
So the WORD implanted in your heart,
Not just your mind, will bring about freedom. I've sent angels to the earth to speak truth
That will bring freedom to the soul that has a heart after Mine. So give up your RIGHTS
To do this or that. You have no rights. You were bought and paid for with the BLOOD of My
SON.

1 Cor 6:18-20 NKJV Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit
Who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own ? 20 For you were
Bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.


Release your spouse to Me, release your children to ME, release your belongings to ME, &
Release all of YOU to ME, and you will be free. Repent of holding on to things, and people,
To your own opinions and ideas, to your things, your house, your car, your job, and everything
I HAVE PROVIDED FOR YOU. Apart from ME, you can do NOTHING. TRUST ME to do for
You what you cannot do. Am I am man that I should lie ? You have coveted your things in
This nation, but if you won't willingly share them with others, as I LEAD you to, then you will
Find them taken away, in fires, in storms, in earthquakes, and floods, and even in unjust
Confiscations. You do not belong to you. How can you teach others of My love and
Absolute surrender if you have not surrendered ?

I am NOT a killjoy, wanting you to have nothing. Believe me, anything that gets stolen, or
Taken away, I can restore. Anything the enemy tries to take, I can restore. Anything
Anyone tries to take, I can restore. Anything I take away, I can restore. Did you not
See how I created something from specs of matter in the beginning ? So how is it, you
think I am incapable of restoring all that you have lost. Many of you have lost much,
and have endured such loss, knowing that one day, I would restore, trusting ME each
day for provision. I am so proud of you passing the tests. Some of you may wonder at
why I put you through tests. I am strengthening your FAITH. How will you know that
I will come through for you, if you never lack anything ? How will you teach it to those
Who will endure much tragedy, unless you have gone through ?

Isa 43:2 NKJV When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through
the fire , you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.


None of this can be done in your OWN strength, but only by seeking My presence,
and allowing me to do what needs be done. So ASK for ME to do it beloveds. Ask
and you shall receive all that you need to prepare your heart to receive My Son
in all His fullness ! Ask for your heart to be made a manger ! Ask for me to FILL
you with My love, that drives out all FEAR. Fear is what makes you hold out or hold
on to things. So ask for love and remember that he who is filled with the fullness
of the knowledge of My love, receives the fullness of My Spirit. For I desire
to have ALL OF YOU. I desire full union with My Bride ! "

Eph 3:17-19 AMP May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide,
make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and
founded securely on love, 18 That you may have the power and be strong
to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God's devoted people, the experience
of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it];
19 [That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves]
the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you
may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest
measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and
flooded with God Himself]!

Exclusivity or Elasticity ?
Dec 6th, 2007

Matt 5:46-48 NKJV For if you love those who love you, what reward have you?
Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet your brethren only,
What do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?
48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

"Are you able to expand your hearts beloveds to accommodate the harvest I will bring in ?
Will you open your hearts to those who seem repulsive to you, and embrace whom I want you to embrace ?
For many of you are full of prejudice of all kinds. Some of you are prejudiced against the poor and weak.
Some of you are prejudiced to certain races because of bitterness in your hearts, or inherited attitudes.
Some of you have opinions that conflict with My opinions. Some of you are walking in attitudes of heart
That have nothing to do with GRACE or humility. Some are prejudiced against the aged, or infirm. There
Are many who judge anyone who is sick or unhealed as if they are in deep sin when they are not.

Some of you are so exclusive, that no matter how much I try to tug on your heart to help others, you
Have self protective walls around your heart from past hurts, and you can't get past them, because you've

Men or women that is rooted in more than just fear, but anger and hatred. You have made judgments that
You need to renounce and lay at the cross, the hurt and pain caused you by a father or mother, or an ex-
Husband or spouse, but you can't get beyond the bitter years of pain. Renounce the vows you made
Of self protection and ask ME what they are if you don't remember. I'm calling you to MY SIDE that you
May get the healing and love you never received. I'm here for you if you will just come and BE with ME.
I will fill you up with more of My love and peace, and all that you need.

John 14:27 NKJV Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world
Gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Matt 22:39-40 NKJV And the second is like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as
Yourself.' 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets."

Some of you are prejudiced against those who are unlike you. You just don't like their style, or ways of
doing things. That's ok, as I made you all different, so you can yoke yourself with those who you can get
Along with, but I don't want you holding ought against anyone in your heart. I don't ask you to trust those
Who you know will hurt you again fully. But I ask you in your heart to love them, and send love spiritually
To them. Pray for them as you would pray for a brother or sister, a child. Don't cut yourself off entirely
From the rest of the body in your place. Have relationship with whomever you can relate to ! Do not isolate
Yourself. Come aside with ME, but do not isolate yourself. Find a small group of others you can relate to
Minister to, and be ministered to by. It is important to have unity BY MY SPIRIT in this hour, that you are not alone.

When I sent out My apostles, I sent them two by two. The hour was dangerous, and their lives were at
Stake. The same is becoming more and more true now. All over the world, persecution is increasing. So
I tell you now to not try to go it alone in anything you do. I am creating relationships with others through
Many means to help yoke together people who will love and support one another in crisis situations and in
The needs of daily living. I am EXPANDING My army soon through harvest, through many suddenlies.
So I ask you to expand YOUR HEART to be inclusive of who I DRAW TO YOU. Flexibility is SO important
To you if you want to survive the coming days. Be willing to BEND to MY WILL, and consider your own
Flexibility. Are you willing to give up things, to give up places, to give up people that I no longer want
You in association with ? It is important to understand MY strategies in this hour.
So I ask you to come to ME, spend time waiting on ME, that you can hear the still small voice.

Isa 30:15 NKJV For thus says the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel:
"In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence
shall be your strength." But you would not,

Come before ME and ask me where your areas of prejudice are, that I may remove them.
Ask ME to fill your heart with love for those I LOVE, and discernment to know the difference
between the one I've called you to help, and the one I don't want you to touch. The enemy
will send people your way also, to steal and rob your peace and time with ME. The enemy will
even send those you love to do that. Guard your time with ME. Intimacy is the only thing that will
keep you safe in this hour on earth. Seek ME while I may be found. Do not take Me for granted
the way some of you take each other for granted. Protect your children and watch their associations.
The enemy is out to kill them and everyone he can to keep them from ME, and the call on their
lives in this hour. You cannot control them once they are grown, so watch over them NOW
and teach them to discern. Teach them how to rebuke demons and cast them out. Do not wait.
They are not too young to know ME, and the power of My Spirit."

Prov 8:17 NKJV I love those who love me, And those who seek me
diligently will find me.

John 6:26-27 NKJV Jesus answered them and said, "Most assuredly, I say to you, you
seek Me , not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.
27 Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting
life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him."

Jer 29:11-14 NKJV For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD,
thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 13 And you
will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.

Wash
Dec 3rd, 2007

Beloveds, there is nothing that my heart doesn’t want to do for you. But I am washing my church. I am like a fuller’s soap, and I will WASH, and WASH and WASH, till the stench of pride, apostasy and intolerance, performance, and pretense , wickedness and avarice is cleansed from My threshing floors.

You needn’t be surprised at the news. You needn’t be calling the work of the devil either. For He does MY BIDDING in this matter of exposing and allowing the prideful to fall. Did I not say in My word, PRIDE COMES BEFORE A FALL ? Have you not heard Me over and over warning those who haven’t gotten healed to come to My side, so I can cleanse them, and heal them of all that has encompassed them ? I have given warning after warning, but now the time for warning is past. The time for action on My part is necessary because of escalating things in the world according to what is written. So do not be shocked by the exposure of lies and pretense.

Do not berate one another, but keep in prayer that your own folly would not be exposed ! Keep in prayer for those who fall, that they might be turned back to righteousness lest they fall into hell. I AM FAITHFUL. And I am the ONLY FAITHFUL ONE ! All are falling short of the glory of God it is written. I’m not surprised, nor dismayed, for I have had those in training that will take the place of those who fall, and they will be a different breed in their hearts. They have made all the mistakes. They have been fine tuned like instruments, so that they would move in harmony together as the bones come together.

You may look at the church as I do with dismay and sadness, but in the end, it will be resuscitated to be all that I want it to be. So rest assured in your hearts that I have it in control. Pray that those who are blind may have their eyes opened, and scales of the enemy removed, that they also might be saved from deception they have sat under. Many will fall away by the time it escalates more. Keep a humble attitude. But don’t be dismayed by the public exposure, for those falling have done their sins in public arenas, and must repent publically if they want to be free. The teacher MUST be more accountable for all of them lead the sheep like lemmings to the cliff of destruction, who deny the truth ! Thus their exposure comes LONG after I have warned them through many, many times. Pray that you may be kept by My hand, for it is only by MY GRACE that anyone can stand.
