My most precious gift to you is your freewill and I will never override it.


First of all, I want to point out that God DID give you a choice. He was the original "women's libber." He gave us the right to choose whether we are going to serve him or not, whether we are going to be blessed or not, whether our children will follow the Lord or not. Some people think that they can't do anything about their children. I don't accept that. The Word says "both thou and thy seed." That means when we choose God, (Deut 30:19) we can choose salvation for ourselves and our children. I know that everyone gets a freewill choice. They may not choose to live for you, but I believe that before they die, they will receive Him. We have a choice. We are to choose what we are going to accept. You have a choice whether you are going to think of Godly things or on wrong things. (If there be any virtue, if there be any praise, think of these things. Phil 4)

I Do Not Scold

Children, when I speak a word of correction, I do not scold. Often My words are read and the reader hears anger and sees finger-pointing. This is not My voice nor My stance. I Am slow to anger, slow to wrath, quick to show mercy and long in suffering. My perfect love for you overrides and swallows up wrath.

The cross of My Son has swallowed up wrath for those who abide in Him. Do you live under My canopy of love, yet you hear My voice as vengeful and harsh? Do not any longer allow the enemy to cloud your mind or twist My words and their meaning to you!

Come. Come into My presence and let Me hold you in My arms of love. Let Me transform your heart so that when you read My Word you can rightly discern the tone of My voice. I do not share the voice of an impatient, pushy or vengeful man. I Am fully confident in Who I Am, so I have no need to push My will on you or make you do things My way - against your will. My most precious gift to you is your freewill and I will never override it. I love you and I demonstrate that love by allowing you to choose or reject Me. Many are called but few are chosen. It is you who decides whether you are chosen or not. I have given you the choice. In Christ Jesus' death all wrath was appeased and in His resurrection you have been raised to life in and with Him.

If you hear My voice carrying the unrighteous anger of man, then you are not hearing Me as I Am. I Am love.

I speak in love. I correct in love. I discipline those I love, but I do not scold as scolding brings shame. I will never put you to shame. I remove the shame and reproach, I do not add to it. I disciple you and though it is difficult for a season, it will always yield delicious fruit of righteousness. Keep yourself from being offended by My correction and allow Me to train and instruct you.

My discipline, which an arm of My love for you, will always lead you deeper into My purpose and destiny for your life. It is in the proper discernment of My voice that will bring you into deeper truth and revelation of who I Am and who you are.

Know that everything I do is motivated by My love for you. It's My love, it's My love, it's My love. Everything I do is out of My love for you. I do not speak as a man speaks or with the motivations of a man, so train yourself to hear My voice as loving You will be able to do this by reading the Gospels of My Son and hear everything He said from a heart of deep and abiding love for you. He demonstrated His pure love at Calvary. Do not ever doubt His love for you. Jesus had a choice and He chose My will to redeem you. Read His words in the loving tone that He spoke them. Even when speaking to the Pharisees He used great restraint and care in how His voice reflected My heart. I desire that none perish.

So beloved, allow Me to love you. Hear My intense love for you. Hear Me by My Holy Spirit. If man claims to teach My ways but speaks in anger, wrath, torment, or in a judgmental tone of voice, then that man or woman is not sent by Me.

Remember the words from My prophet and friend, John:

There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but perfect [complete and full grown] love casts out fear [terror]. For fear has to do with punishment, and he who fears is not perfected in love [is not yet grown into love's complete perfection]. 1 John 4:18

Be perfected in My love and hear My voice as it is. There is no condemnation in Christ and you are in Christ if you obey Me. Hidden within every command I give there is a hidden treasure of blessing for you. I will always lead you into righteousness and life eternal. Obedience is easier when you know I love you. So Know I LOVE YOU, Dear One, I love you!

Do not forsake those I have joined you with, for it is important to your future. Do whatever you can do to repair and build bridges but always yield to the freewill of those who say no.


Take a lesson from Daniel. Was he not preserved in the midst of his great kingdom? Even though that king was putting the eyes out of the leaders of the house of Israel - he would put the eyes out of the king and bring them into captivity - and yet was not Daniel spared and favored, and was he not given great position in that kingdom?

Can not I spare you in this world? Can I not mark you? Can I not keep you, even though a heathen king would take you into captivity? Can I not give you favor? Can I not make you the top of the top, even in a foreign land? So learn a lesson, saith God. I love those who love me. I take care of those who cling to me.

Learn a lesson, saith God. Your city can't save you; your government can't save you; your church can't save you; your family can't save you, but I can. I can mark you, saith the Lord. I can take my finger and put it upon your forehead and no matter what happens around you, you can be spared; you can be saved; you can be lifted up.

Do you want the mark of God upon you, and will you trade everything in this life for my courts, for my kingdom, for my honor, for my glory? Will you give yourself even as a wife gives herself unto her husband totally and says, "I will not go with another; I will not even look at another; I will only sleep with you; I will only walk with you; I will only talk with you; you are my beloved; I have eyes for you and you alone."

Will you have eyes for me and me alone, saith God? Will you turn from all of Satan's temptations? Will you give yourself unto the Lord your God, even as in a marriage bed where you have eyes only for me? You have a heart only for me? You have a life only for me, for this is what I desire.

I am a jealous God and I do not desire to see you turning left or right or going from the courts of God or leaving your relationship with me. Stay true to me, saith the Lord, and I will stay true to you. Give yourself unto me and I will give myself unto you; I will lift you; I will raise you; I will mark you. I will give you things that your hearts desire.

This cannot happen to you from a pastor; he cannot give you this. A church cannot give you this. Your brothers and sisters cannot give you this. The world cannot give you this, but oh, I, even I can, and I will and I shall, if you will give yourself unto me totally, unreservedly. Have eyes for me and me alone, saith the Lord. Think of me; care for me; come after me, saith God.

Separate yourself from the world; separate yourself from the things of the flesh. Separate yourself even from what the other Christians around you are doing, and say, "I belong to him; I won't do that. I belong to him; I'm not going to think like that." You walk an individual walk with me behind closed doors when no one's looking; you stay true to me when you are alone and no one's around.

You will be amazed at what I let you see, what I let you do, where I take you and what I do with you. I will reward those who are faithful to me. Your nation cannot reward you; your people cannot reward you; your friends cannot reward you.

Only I and I alone can make the impossible happen in your life. I can do it; oh, I can do it. I can bring a small Hebrew child to the top of the Babylonian kingdom and make him a prince, because of his walk with me. Don't tell me that I can't do it. I will show you proof after proof after proof of men from nowhere that I took somewhere and made them something, simply because of their relationship to me.

This is not as complicated as you think it is. This is not as hard as you think it is. It is simple; it is a very simple thing. Remain faithful to loving your God and walking with him and everything around you will happen automatically, saith the Lord. You won't have to lift a finger to make it happen. I will make it happen for you.

I can give favor. Do you know what favor is? It's invisible; it's an attitude that people start having towards you, and they don't even know why, but all of a sudden they want to do things for you. They want to give things to you; they want to open doors for you rather than trip you when you go by so that you will stumble and fall; they will knock things out of the way to help you get where you need to go.

I am the one who gives favor. I can make people do things for you. I made Pharaoh let my people go. Do you think he wanted to? Do you think he had the intent to do it? I made him. I can make people bless you; I can make people let you go.

I AM that I AM, and I'm offering you the opportunity to be my friend. Wouldn't you like to have a powerful friend like me? Wouldn't you like to have somebody that can make the strongest leaders in the nation let you go, favor you, bless you? Wouldn't you like me to be your friend? I want to be your friend more than you want to be mine.

I am Joseph. I don't want to punish you. I want to forgive your sins. I want to hold you and show you how much I love you. I want to put you in the land of Goshen. Will you let me? Will you let me?

Will you cleave to me, cling to me and have me only as your God? Will you love only me; see only me; worship only me? Will you be mine, saith the Lord; will you be mine? As it is with a man and a woman in marriage, will you be mine and mine alone? I will not share you with another; I am a jealous God. I will not have your whoring around - playing with the things of the devil and coming to my house like you are faithful.

It offends me; it hurts me; it angers me; it grieves me, and yet I will forgive and forgive and forgive. But you must come to the place where you realize that I want you for myself and that I do not want to punish you. I want to love you, saith God. I want to give you good things, but I just require that you remain with me and me alone. Fidelity, saith God, fidelity, loyalty. This is not legalism; it's love.

Yet I leave you with your choices; you may all make your choices this day. Who do you want? Who do you want? I will never force you; I will never put your arm behind your back; I will never put a gun to your head and say you must love me or serve me. It is your freewill; it is your choice. I will be to you what you will be to me, saith the Lord.

2008.10.19 Eagles on the Rise

- I saw the Lord’s hand come down and stir up the atmosphere. A funnel began to form circling upward, and eagles began to catch the currents and rise up. Next I saw a high ranking military official. He was handing out packets with instructions. I saw “New Orders”. I sensed some of the instructions were very simple, like “Rest”, “Come away beloved”, ”Dance”.

“My instructions will be clear as you rise up in the Spirit. Time with Me in the inner place will equip you to carry out My instructions. Being completely yielded to My Spirit will enable you to carry out these instructions with ease, and out of your obedience will come great joy.

Matt. 25:14-30 Parable of the talents

Matt 25:21 His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.' NKJV

Matt 11:29-30 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." NKJV

Rule & Reign With Me

- I saw the “Scepter of Righteousness” and a pool of water that was purple. Someone put their finger in the water and caused it to ripple.

“My judgments are righteous. Those who rule and reign with Me as kings rule in My righteousness. Apart from Me you can do nothing.”

John 15:5-8 5 I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. NKJV

Heb 1:8 But to the Son He says:

"Your throne, O God, is forever and ever;
A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your Kingdom. NKJV

Sign in the Natural: Clouds Gathering

- I saw white puffy clouds and I sensed the gathering of clouds was like the gathering of the Army of God.

“Continue to seek Me, continue to see and hear in the Spirit. Where I am there also will be my Army. As you are gathered to Me, and abide in Me and walk with Me the rain will begin to fall and My “Reign” will begin to fall upon the earth. As the darkness grows so also My Army shall grow, strengthened in Me, shinning with My glory. I will manifest My sons of glory. Darkness shall not overtake My sons of Glory.“

1 John 3:8b For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. NKJV

Anointing Released to Do Miracles
October 20, 2008
Who is like unto our God? Or who can occupy His footstool? Who can make the blind to see, the lame walk, the broken-hearted to be bound up and made whole? Who but I Myself and My anointed ones. Therefore I release the anointing of restoration, the anointing of Messiah, upon you and yours, to do miracles, to accomplish feats of healing, deliverance, restoration, breaking of addictions. This is released to you today.
Let My people go forth and change the world in this time of restoration, for the Lord of all the earth has spoken. I AM.

‘OBEY MY VOICE’

By Andrew Murray - (1828-1917)


Would God that we could learn that all that God speaks of sacrifices, even of the sacrifice of His beloved Son, is subordinate to the one thing – to have His creature restored to full obedience. Into all the inconceivable meaning of the word, ‘I WILL BE YOUR GOD,’ there is no gateway but this, ‘OBEY MY VOICE.’

WE COME TO THE NEW TESTAMENT – Here we think at once of our blessed Lord, and the prominence He gives to obedience as the one thing for which He was come into the world. He who entered it with His ‘Lo, I come to do Thy will, O God,’ ever confessed to men, ‘I seek not My own will, but the will of Him that sent Me.’

Of all He did and of all He suffered, even to the death, He said, ‘This commandment have I received of My Father.’

If we turn to His teaching, we find everywhere, that the obedience He rendered is what He claims from everyone who would be His disciple.

During His whole ministry, from beginning to end, obedience is – THE VERY ESSENCE OF SALVATION.

In the Sermon on the Mount He began with it: No one could enter the kingdom, ‘but he that doeth the will of My Father which is in heaven.’

And in the farewell discourse, how wonderfully He reveals the spiritual character of true obedience as it is born of love and inspired by it, and as it also opens the way into the love of God. Do take into your heart the wonderful words, (John 14:15, 16, 21, 23), ‘If ye love Me, ye will keep my commandments. And the Father will send forth the Spirit. He hath My commandments and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me: and he shall be loved of My Father, and I will love him, and will manifest Myself unto him. If a man love Me, he will keep My words: and My Father will love him, and We will come unto him, and make Our abode with him.’

No words could express more simply or more powerfully the inconceivably glorious place Christ gives to obedience, with its twofold possibility, (1) as only possible to a loving heart, (2) as making possible all that God has to give of His Holy Spirit, of His wonderful love, of His indwelling in Christ Jesus.

I know of no passage in Scripture that gives a higher revelation of the spiritual life, or the power of loving obedience as its one condition. Let us pray to God very earnestly that by His Holy Spirit its light may transfigure our daily obedience with its heavenly glory.

LOVE,HUMILITY AND EMPATHY



Love humility and empathy brings the harvest in

It heals them from their hurts and pain it cleanses them from sin

The wind is blowing stronger the clock strikes another hour

Father fills them with his love he arms them with his power

In the distance eagles fly little fledglings try their wings

Holy Holy is the Lord is the song the angels sing



The sands of time are flowing do you hear the rooster crowing

Time is here so near so near voices speaking do you hear?

Joining together angels feathers

Storm clouds gather stormy weather

Waters gather the dams they break

I wonder how long will it take

For all to see just what’s ahead

Jesus lives he is not dead

Watch out Watch out you hear them cry

Jesus lives do you see him nigh

Do you see him coming very soon

We don’t know if it’s night or noon

Love humility and empathy brings the harvest in

It heals them from their hurts and pain it cleanses them from sin





A strong man has entered the country a Goliath among men ,

But I say to you My Children will you defeat him or call him friend ?!

For I AM your forbearance so come to me and see ,

Inquire of your Savior come to the garden and kneel beside Me !

Be my watchman in the Tower be My Shepherd through the night ,

Pray in earnest as Rachel and Sarah , come ! Break My heart this very night !

For I AM your Intercessor in all you say and do ,

I AM your Strong Tower , your Mighty Oak to cling onto ,

Don't ever feel you must waiver or let go ,

Cling onto your Savior and My Virtue you shall know !

Surely Storms and Trials I have said you will go through ,

But I AM your Arm your Shoulder and Strong Tower so come to me to be redressed and renewed ,

For I AM your Righteousness and Armor that you wear !

Come to ME My Children ! For Truly I DO CARE ! ! !

Genesis 16:11-12

11 The angel of the LORD also said to her:
"You are now with child
and you will have a son.
You shall name him Ishmael, [a]
for the LORD has heard of your misery.

12 He will be a wild donkey of a man;
his hand will be against everyone
and everyone's hand against him,
and he will live in hostility
toward [b] all his brothers."

Psalm 61:3-4

3 For you have been my refuge,
a strong tower against the foe.

4 I long to dwell in your tent forever
and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.
Selah

Deuteronomy 33:12

12 About Benjamin he said:
"Let the beloved of the LORD rest secure in him,
for he shields him all day long,
and the one the LORD loves rests between his shoulders."

Daily Golden Footprints
Your Sword
Monday, October 20, 2008

Yesterday when I arrived at church we began to worship the Lord. The pastor asked me to give a scripture. I discovered that I had left my Bible at home. I had my regular bag, but I had left my Bible at home. I felt naked. I realized that I had not gone to church without my Bible in many years. I did give a scripture from memory, but it is always best to carry your sword. The scripture that the Lord gave me was found in (Psalms 22:3) But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. If you want to bring God on the scene, then praise Him. Praise always brings God on the scene.

When I was a child, I was taught to open the Word every time someone preaches or quotes a scripture because no one is perfect, and we need to know that it is in the Word of God. It is a good practice. The Word tells us to (2 Timothy 2:15) Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. Also, the Word says in (Joshua 1: This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

We are instructed in (Romans 12:2) And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. We have to renew our minds in the Word of God to be able to discern the will of God.

I have heard some folks who are fascinated by the moving of the Holy Spirit try to bypass that important step of renewing their mind in the Word of God. It cannot be done.

When you read in (Amos 3:7) Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets, we see that God does nothing without revealing it to His servants, His prophets first. To move in the spirit of God, you must know His Word backwards and forwards. You see you must get to know the characteristics and ways of God from His Word to really know him.

In (Romans 10:17) the Word clearly tells us why we must get into His Word… So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. It takes His Word to have faith and it takes faith to please God. (Hebrews 11:6) But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

It is when you act by the unction of the Holy Spirit that you become a doer of the Word of God. (James 1:23) For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass.

The reason that we so often see the Word go forth and then the Holy Spirit moves is because He is building your faith with the Word, before doing His Word. He wants you to receive every time.

So don’t forget your sword. (Ephesians 6:17) And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Your sword is your offensive weapon, the Word of God. You can pray the Word and you have been guaranteed that He will hear and answer it.

By the way, through the years, I have learned that the more time I spend in His Word renewing my mind and in prayer building my spirit, the more the gifts of the Spirit operate.

In Him,
Prophetess Frances Lloyd
