The Trumpet by Bill Burns
December 25, 2006: I hear the Lord shouting, Rise Up, My People! No longer will there be a delay. No longer will the days proclaim that I am not at work. I say to you that in this very season you will carry a power that you have never experienced before. It is My will that you rise up in the Spirit and have power over all of the works of darkness. Do not be deceived, My people, for the evil one troubles you even in times when you do not recognize him in your midst. Fight the good fight of faith. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Dress your self in the armor of light. You shall be vindicated and victorious. And, you will live in victory. Ride on victoriously and be empowered. I will be to you a shield and a refuge, a place of safety, says the Lord.

Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns
December 25, 2006: Come to Me, says the Lord, and find rest for your weary soul. The days have been hectic, but now you can take this time to rest, reflect and recuperate. Find your strength and comfort in Me. I will open a new door of hope to you, and you will find peace and rejoice again. Hosea 2:14-16 "Therefore, behold, I will allure her, will bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfort to her. I will give her her vineyards from there, and the Valley of Achor as a door of hope; she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, as in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt. And it shall be, in that day," Says the LORD, "That you will call Me ‘My Husband,’ and no longer call Me ‘My Master."

Rev 13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. Rev 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations. Rev 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. Rev 13:9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.

My undestanding also....we will be given a time of power to do the greater kingdom works, but then a darkness falls....I love that verse quoted in Hosea and I have continually been drawn to it over the years and still am...it speaks of a solid future to me.

and the Voice in the dream said, Will you marry me, and I heard myself
answer, Yes...this is it...

Praise the Lord...this is it...that we no longer call Him Master, but that
we call Him Husband, Ishi.

Praise the Lord...Beulah land...O, Israel...His heart is set upon you...
