1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was
upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the
face of the waters.
1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided
the light from the darkness.
1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called
Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

I will restore My love and order to this creation, the universe, and the FIRE of My love shall recreate it, the heavens and the earth. So know now, My children, that the future is GOOD. Believe with Me, expect with Me, anticipate with Me the goodness of our God. Amen! God is Love. Love is God. Love reigns sovereignly and supremely, far above any earthly king or power. Prepare your hearts for good things. Oh, yes, good things. For the evil and darkness will increase, but so will your joy. So don’t focus on the bad things. Look up! For your salvation is nigh.

There Is Nothing In All Creation
(Based on Romans 8:35-39)

There is nothing in all creation
That can separate us from His love
There is nothing in all creation
That can separate us
There is nothing in all creation
That can separate us from His love
There is nothing in all creation
That can separate us from His love

Neither life nor death
Neither angels nor demons
Not the present, not the future
Nor any powers
Neither height nor depth,
nor anything in all creation,
Neither trouble, nor hardship
nor persecution
can separate us from His love

can separate us from His love
can separate us from His love

1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the
waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which
were under the firmament from the waters which were above
the firmament: and it was so.
1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the
morning were the second day
IPB Image
A New Firmament:
(Note that God uses His ancient name, Eloah here, meaning the God of Love.)
Eloah, God of the Universe, speaks, saying, "Let there be a new firmament, the canopy of My glory (Isaiah 4: 5), not unlike the human placenta which translates between mother and child. Let it be like the Holy Spirit hovering over creation when the earth was formless and void. Let it be a covering for My people, a shelter not unlike those at the Feast of Tabernacles, a covering coming out of the blood of Jesus, like the animal skin of a sacrificial Lamb covered Adam and Eve.

Let praise from My people arise from the earth to form this canopy or firmament and let the Sun of Righteousness shine down to crystallize the waters and spin them out like fine shining metal. Let the praise rise like mist or vapor. Let the earth be like a well-watered garden once again. I have spoken. I will do it, says the Lord. I AM God and I will do what I say.

Eloah is God and He IS Love. Know that My love as a force in the universe will permeate ALL creation. The stars will sing in their courses of My Love. The depths of space will shout My name, Eloah, and the earth will rejoice in its place among the planets. I will restore My love and order to this creation, the universe, and the FIRE of My love shall recreate it, the heavens and the earth. So know now, My children, that the future is GOOD. Believe with Me, expect with Me, anticipate with Me the goodness of our God. Amen!

The Breath of Life:
When we worship and praise Him, it’s actually His breath being breathed out of us. When we’re in His presence He wants us to open our nostrils and breathe in the breath, the life of God. Just as His mercy is new every morning, if we take that breath, He will breathe life and restoration into us. He breathes it into us and it comes out in praise and that’s a complete cycle; that’s how He meant life to be.

A Garden Once Again
Eloah is. Love IS. Love exists as a primal force in the universe. See it, the Love that drives the motion of the planets, the Love that rules the universe. Let us make this place an Eden again, where man cooperates with God’s love and receives it so that Love creates a garden once again. You can receive it in the Spirit, by faith, before it becomes a physical reality. So go for it. Receive. I would give it to you…and you… and you. Make my earth a garden of joy and blessing again by receiving My Love to rule and reign in your hearts. Embrace My Love fully –100% -- and see it happen.

1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered
together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it
was so.
1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering
together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it
was good.
1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb
yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his
kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed
after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was
in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
1:13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.

I hear you say, "What am I here for? Why was I born? What is my purpose? Do I have a destiny?

Oh My child, My dear one, listen to the voice of the Lord your God, the Potter who purposely put His hand to your wet clay. I am not a God of chance. I am not a God of mistakes. I am not a God who is careless and flippant about My decisions and My acts.

You, beloved have been the seed of My heart from before the worlds came into being. You were not just a thought that floated into My mind once upon a time. You were and are part of Me. I did not reach out into the atmosphere and capture a particle and decide to make it look like you. You were part of My breath. You were the sound of My heartbeat. You were the pupil of My eye.

The Father spoke of you as we fellowshiped with one another before earth time ever began. The wonderful Holy Spirit eagarly hovered over your name as My Father and I called you out into exsistance. All of heaven ceased it's activities, held it's breath, and waited in great anticipation for your name to manifest YOU. Remeber My Word that says, "AND GOD SAID....AND IT WAS"

My loved one, you are here because My Father, The Holy Spirit , and I longed for you. You were born because if you had not been then WE, the Trinity, could not one day embrace you in our arms. You would have remained part of our breath and just the SOUND of our heartbeat. But NOW, WE can hold you and walk with you. WE can see your face and hear your voice calling our names. THIS is why you were born. Not for your parents, not for your loved ones, not to do mighty exploits but so that WE can touch you forever and always.

Your purpose, child, is to bring joy to your Father, your Savior, and your Holy Spirit. When WE hear your voice lifted in sweet worship to US, OUR hearts are propelled through the heavens. The music of your singing and your prayers caress the atmosphere. The sight of your face turned towards US pulls US up from our thrones and causes US to bow low so as to not miss one sigh of your heart. Your purpose, dear loved one, is to complete US.

As for your destiny it is this, to reign with US for eternity. This, child, could not be so if you had not been brought forth from your mother's womb, if you had not been that exact "seed" from your earthly father. It matters not who they were or what the circumsatances were, YOU were purposely planned and planted on earth so that you can eternally, sit beside US as the pure and spotless 'BRIDE OF THE LAMB". Being born into humanity was the only way to accomplish this glorious wedding. You being here with US was the purpose of Genesis 1, the creation of the earth and all that is in it. Creation was the conduit, the path, to get you to US so that WE no longer had to merely speak of you but could at last touch you.

Yes, beloved, you have a purpose and a destiny, you have a reason for being and that is - WE WANT YOU.

I CANNOT GET AWAY FROM THE A PROPHETIC WORD A FEW MONTHS BACK THAT THE LORD MINISTERED TO ME.
The Lord had said, "I am brooding over a New Place in the Spirit...much like in Genesis. A New Beginning of something. I am separating land mass and water, in a spiritual sense and I am creating a place where my Unseen Ones will emerge and begin to re establish my Glory in the Earth."

MY SPIRIT SENSES DEEPLY THAT THE VOID IS STILL THERE AND GOD IS STILL FORMING SOMETHING. I would never want to preempt or attempt to speed up the process by moving into something that God is still forming.

PERSONALLY...
…I SENSE A BUILDING EXCITEMENT as we approach this next upcoming year. There will be doors opened that have seemed to be cemented shut for decades. As they open...the way to use what is behind them will have been well prepared for in the prayer closets of brokenness of the faithful.

1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the
heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for
signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
1:15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven
to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule
the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the
stars also.
1:17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give
light upon the earth,
1:18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide
the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
1:19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.


IPB ImageA City set on a Hill

Let Jesus the 'Light of the world' shine thru you
Follow Him
Whoever follows Him will not walk in darkness
Follow Him
Whoever follows Him will have the 'Light of life'
Follow Him
Whoever follows Him will be light to the world
Follow Him
A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.

Put on the clothes of righteousness
Compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience
Forgive as Christ forgives
Love as Christ loves
Then all will know you as His disciple.

Let your light shine in such a way that your Father in heaven is glorified
Walking in the path of righteousness
Like the light of dawn
Shining brighter and brighter until the full day

Whoever follows Him will be light to the world
Follow Jesus
A city set on a hill cannot be hidden!




IPB Image
John 8:12
Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, "I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life."

John 1:4
In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.
IPB Image
Matthew 5:14-16
You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Proverbs 4:18
But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter until the full day.
IPB Image
Daniel 12:3
Those who have insight will shine brightly like the brightness of the expanse of heaven, and those who lead the many to righteousness, like the stars forever and ever.
IPB Image
Colossians 3:12-14
as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful.
IPB Image
1 John 3:14
We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.
IPB Image
John 13:35
By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. If ye walk in the Light as I am in the light, ye have fellowship one with another and the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses from all sin!
IPB Image
John 1:1-5 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. NKJV


Light is not comprehended by darkness. Darkness is confused by light and repelled by light. The light challenges the darkness and the darkness will flee. As we walk in Him, the light of His presence in us displaces the darkness that is in our proximity. As I walk through cities and through nations, I often see each step that I take filled with light, displacing the darkness that is all around me. As Christian
Forum goes forth, the light in us displaces the darkness around us. With each step, I oftentimes hear myself proclaiming, “Light, light, light!”

Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. NKJV

A great weapon of warfare is LIGHT. This light forms a path before me as I walk. The Light is the living reality of Jesus Christ, the Word of God. His word is filled with light and now, more than ever, we need to grasp this in days of encroaching darkness.

There are no shadows in light. Shadows are formed by mixture in light and darkness. We are either walking in the light with power or walking in the darkness. We must come forth from the shadows. The shadows are very dangerous for in the shadows there is mixture and compromise. Get in the light of Jesus Christ no matter what the cost.

In the coming days, the path before each of us will be easily distinguished by the amount of light on the path that God sets
out for each of us. Follow the light right through and amidst the darkness of this present age. The light of the Living Word takes us right into places of great challenge and yet this darkness does not understand this glorious light coming from a glorious church. While the darkness is stunned and confused by a glorious church filled with light, it will allow us time to strike in warfare with the light of His glorious Word. The darkness is confounded and confused by the light.

Hear by the Spirit! Walk in the light as He is in the light! Give up anything and everything that is tainted by the shadows of compromise and mixture. Get in the light of His glory!

In the beginning was the Word
And the Word was with God.
In the beginning was the Word
Now He dwells within my heart.

(Chorus 1)
And the Word came down as flesh.
Taking form in lowly birth.
He's the very Son of God
Who created heaven and earth.

(Verse 2)
In the beginning was the Word
And the Word Himself was God.
In the beginning was the Word
Now He dwells within my heart.

(Chorus 2 - hold "And" for two beats)
And in the Word is Life
Which became the Light of men
That the world can't overcome;
In His life, we live again!

(Bridge)
To all who will receive the Word,
To those believing in His Name,
He empowers to be sons of God...

(Repeat chorus 1)
And the Word came down as flesh.
Taking form in lowly birth.
He's the very Son of God
Who created heaven and earth.

(Repeat chorus 2)
And in the Word is Life
Which became the Light of men
That the world can't overcome;
In His life, we live again!

(Repeat chorus 1 and 2 again)

In the beginning was the Word,
Now He dwells within my heart.

1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the
moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above
the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
1:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature
that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after
their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw
that it was good.
1:22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply,
and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the

The Spirit of God says, "Strange things begin to happen when there is unity in the building. Unity is two becoming as one so that one can become two. This is the power of what is present," says the Spirit of the Lord. "This is the power that has taken over My people. From the beginning of time, I said, multiply. Right from the beginning, fill the earth." Now God said, "It is time again for this restoration to begin. Multiply," for God said, you will certainly subdue the earth. You will certainly have dominion. You will certainly know that God is doing something unusual.

Birds, bees, and pretty butterflies,
God made them all.
Birds, bees, and pretty butterflies,

(Repeat Chorus)

God made them all.
Birds, bees, and pretty butterflies,

Colored leaves on the trees, He created;
Oceans deep, mountains high.
Grains of sand, flowers blue, He created;
A baby's breath, and you too, He designed!

(Repeat Chorus)
Birds, bees, and pretty butterflies,
God made them all.
Birds, bees, and pretty butterflies,

The world is waiting not for a political shift, an economic shift, or even a geological shift. All may occur, and in fact will occur... but the greatest most powerful shift that will take place in the world has nothing to do with the worlds' systems. It has to do with a paradigm shift in the church that releases the greatest and most profound change the earth has ever seen.

The Father is releasing authority in the direction of Love. Where Love prevails... the Father manifests His Presence. Where Love abounds... the Holy Spirit reigns in freedom. Where Love is demonstrated to the world... the people fall in love with the Lover of their souls... and the power to transform a body, a life, a family, a community, and a nation has begun to infiltrate, infect, and mesmerize a world with the awesome reality of the real Jesus!

Around the world this explosion of apostolic love is sweeping millions of people into the Kingdom of God... New England... and this nation is no different. Nothing prevails against love. Nothing is more dramatic and powerful than the Love of Jesus flowing through His children.

THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT ARE LOVE, JOY, PEACE....etc.
CAN THE WORLD COME BY YOUR TREE AND PICK OFF THESE FRUITS??????

1:24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature
after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the
earth after his kind: and it was so.
1:25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and
cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the
earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our
likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all
the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth.
1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God
created he him; male and female created he them.
1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful,
and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have
dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the
air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing
seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every
tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to
you it shall be for meat.
1:30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the
air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein
there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and
it was so.
1:31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it
was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth

as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful.

John 1:1-5 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it. NKJV


Light is not comprehended by darkness. Darkness is confused by light and repelled by light. The light challenges the darkness and the darkness will flee. As we walk in Him, the light of His presence in us displaces the darkness that is in our proximity. As I walk through cities and through nations, I often see each step that I take filled with light, displacing the darkness that is all around me. As Christian
Forum goes forth, the light in us displaces the darkness around us. With each step, I oftentimes hear myself proclaiming, “Light, light, light!”

Psalm 119:105 Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path. NKJV

A great weapon of warfare is LIGHT. This light forms a path before me as I walk. The Light is the living reality of Jesus Christ, the Word of God. His word is filled with light and now, more than ever, we need to grasp this in days of encroaching darkness.

There are no shadows in light. Shadows are formed by mixture in light and darkness. We are either walking in the light with power or walking in the darkness. We must come forth from the shadows. The shadows are very dangerous for in the shadows there is mixture and compromise. Get in the light of Jesus Christ no matter what the cost.

In the coming days, the path before each of us will be easily distinguished by the amount of light on the path that God sets
out for each of us. Follow the light right through and amidst the darkness of this present age. The light of the Living Word takes us right into places of great challenge and yet this darkness does not understand this glorious light coming from a glorious church. While the darkness is stunned and confused by a glorious church filled with light, it will allow us time to strike in warfare with the light of His glorious Word. The darkness is confounded and confused by the light.

Hear by the Spirit! Walk in the light as He is in the light! Give up anything and everything that is tainted by the shadows of compromise and mixture. Get in the light of His glory!

In the beginning was the Word
And the Word was with God.
In the beginning was the Word
Now He dwells within my heart.

(Chorus 1)
And the Word came down as flesh.
Taking form in lowly birth.
He's the very Son of God
Who created heaven and earth.

(Verse 2)
In the beginning was the Word
And the Word Himself was God.
In the beginning was the Word
Now He dwells within my heart.

(Chorus 2 - hold "And" for two beats)
And in the Word is Life
Which became the Light of men
That the world can't overcome;
In His life, we live again!

(Bridge)
To all who will receive the Word,
To those believing in His Name,
He empowers to be sons of God...

(Repeat chorus 1)
And the Word came down as flesh.
Taking form in lowly birth.
He's the very Son of God
Who created heaven and earth.

(Repeat chorus 2)
And in the Word is Life
Which became the Light of men
That the world can't overcome;
In His life, we live again!

(Repeat chorus 1 and 2 again)

Now He dwells within my heart.

WHOEVER CLAIMS TO LIVE IN HIM MUST WALK AS Y'SHUA DID

Walking in the light
5This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 6If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. 7But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all[a] sin.

8If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. 9If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. 10If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives.

1 John 2
1My dear children, I write this to you so that you will not sin. But if anybody does sin, we have one who speaks to the Father in our defense—Jesus Christ, the Righteous One. 2He is the atoning sacrifice for our sins, and not only for ours but also for[b] the sins of the whole world.

3We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands. 4The man who says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. 5But if anyone obeys his word, God's love[c] is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: 6Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did.

7Dear friends, I am not writing you a new command but an old one, which you have had since the beginning. This old command is the message you have heard. 8Yet I am writing you a new command; its truth is seen in him and you, because the darkness is passing and the true light is already shining.

9Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness. 10Whoever loves his brother lives in the light, and there is nothing in him[d] to make him stumble. 11But whoever hates his brother is in the darkness and walks around in the darkness; he does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded him.
12I write to you, dear children,
because your sins have been forgiven on account of his name.
13I write to you, fathers,
because you have known him who is from the beginning.
I write to you, young men,
because you have overcome the evil one.
I write to you, dear children,
because you have known the Father.
14I write to you, fathers,
because you have known him who is from the beginning.
I write to you, young men,
because you are strong,
and the word of God lives in you,
and you have overcome the evil one.

Do Not Love the World
15Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.

2:4 These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth
when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the
earth and the heavens,

every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had
not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man
to till the ground.
2:6 But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the
whole face of the ground.
2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a
living soul.

there he put the man whom he had formed.

This is the time to press into Him..in His rest...Seeking His Face..Speaking ...
All is Well...in My Soul...
Make no mistake...He is in control...in the last seconds ...of the last minutes..of time as we have known...

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Rejoice...our redemption is at hand...the God of Abraham,Isaac,and Israel
IS HEALING OUR LAND...

Today I call to you to come to me, all of you who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. My child know that my yoke is easy and my burden is light. You must come to Me first before I can give you rest. Do not try and function in your own strength and your own understanding of what you are faced with today. I have a rest for you that is not of this world. My rest is one that will take you through all circumstances and all pressures.

In the eye of the hurricane, I find peace in the storm.
By trusting in You, Lord, my soul is reborn.
Like a child in Your arms, safe and warm against the night,
You will bear me through the darkness, surrounded by Your light.

Refrain

Resting in You, Lord, safe in Your arms,
Resting in You, Lord, I am safe in Your arms.

Refrain

Though the mountains may crumble, and the sea roll away,
I know You are with me, through the night and the day.
For You’re right here inside me; yes, You live within my heart.
I’ve abandoned my life into Your gentle, loving arms.

Refrain

When my burdens grow heavy, and I bend beneath the load,
Then Your strength will help me down the long, dusty road.
All my trials and tribulations, they can only make me strong.
For You lift my soul with gladness, and fill my heart with song.

Darkness and light. As sure as night turns to day, I am with you forever. Sometimes the days seem to all become dark and dreary as night. When this occurs, you can so easily become disoriented and begin to see darkness in everything. You can even see everything as dark. But, I am not a god of darkness; I am the God of light. I have given Jesus and the Holy Spirit to drive away all darkness. As a token of My promises to you to be the God of light, I have placed a perpetual star in the sky in the darkest part of the night, just before dawn. It is the morning star, My star of promise. Try getting up early in the morning from time to time and look at this star and remember the faithfulness of the Lord your God. Darkness and light.

Invitation to The Secret Garden

It is a place to be with Me where we can talk quietly and I can instruct you in wisdom and righteousness. It is a place of abundance and fruitfulness, a place which brings forth joy. It is a place of deep and secure peace in My presence. It is one aspect of the secret place of the Most High, and you are invited, hereby invited, to come. Come In. Walk with Me in the cool of the evening. Let Me converse with you. Allow God's will and way to enlighten your life and to permeate your being.

Come to My Garden
Come, My beloved. Come into the garden of spices and sweet aloes to the bench we can share in the center of the garden. All shame is gone so that you can behold the face of your Beloved unashamed. I invite you as God of the Second Chance once again to come with Me into My garden to rest there, to rejoice and to meet with your Savior. No one else, nothing else, no pressure, will be there to trouble or distress us. It is a garden of peace and joy, a garden of abundance. It is the Eden to which I would have you return. It is a spiritual garden to be sure, but a very real place. Come!

I come to the garden alone
While the dew is still on the roses
And the voice I hear falling on my ear
The Son of God discloses.

Refrain

And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
And He tells me I am His own;
And the joy we share as we tarry there,
None other has ever known.

He speaks, and the sound of His voice,
Is so sweet the birds hush their singing,
And the melody that He gave to me
Within my heart is ringing.

Refrain

I’d stay in the garden with Him
Though the night around me be falling,
But He bids me go; through the voice of woe
His voice to me is calling.

Keep your eyes on the Path


My Child,
Trust and obey. Keep focusing in on the job I set before you. Keep moving forward in the call. I am opening doors you did not expect to see opened. I am causing things to work together for your good. Therefore, be of good cheer, for I have delivered you from the hands of the enemy, from attempts to stall you.

Press forward. Do the work outlined to you. I will give you the strength and stamina needed and I will heal your body, says the Lord. Those who try to interfere will be pushed back and the work will be accomplished on schedule, so press in to complete the task. I will be informing you of the next step, so keep your eyes and ears open to My leading.
I have heard your cry for help and I am coming to set things in order, to put things in their rightful place. I will guide and direct your footsteps. You will be moved on into the place of authority that I have assigned to you. I will give you direction; show you where to put an emphasis.
You will be instrumental in affairs to come. You will designate roles. You will bring counsel, and you will establish many in works as I direct. I am giving you the desires of your heart, the ability to do the Father’s will. Move on now with patience.

I have called you, to ascend the hill of Zion by way of praise.
For many of My own have been so weighed down and afflicted with what is
going on down below that they have forgotten that I indeed rule and
reign and that I sit upon the throne. I, the Lord God Almighty, am calling
My people to leave all that is behind them to come up higher. Do not
allow the baggage of the past to be as an anchor, but instead let go
because I am doing a new thing.

I speak to you now to spread your wings and let the wind of My Spirit
carry you higher. It is not something that is done by the flesh or by
your own strength; but as you stop struggling and cry out to Me, I will
fill you with new strength and stamina with which to run the race ahead.
I am calling you upwards. It is a constant call to look heavenwards at
what I am doing throughout this earth and in and through your lives.

As you soar high, you will see things as I see them. Even as the eagle
has sharp vision, so I am redefining the vision that My people currently
see. What was once blurry is now being made clear in your lives. I am
bringing a new level of truth that will clearly demarcate that which is
real from that which is not. Yet in spite of all I am doing, I say again:
Ascend the hill of Zion by way of praise. I do indeed dwell in the
praises of My people, and as you praise Me this season, you will not only
see walls crumble and breakthrough coming, but you will step into the
next level of intimacy and coming to a deeper knowledge of Who I am.

Yes indeed, the call has gone forth and I am indeed calling My children
higher in Me. No longer be satisfied with the normal, but reach forth;
climb higher into the realm of the impossible where there are no
limitations of the expression of praise.

To My people who desire more of Me, I say: Ascend, come up higher!
Worship and praise Me, for that will draw you closer to Me.

God's command.

Let us never set up our own will against the holy will of God. There was not only liberty allowed to man, in taking the fruits of paradise, but everlasting life made sure to him upon his obedience. There was a trial appointed of his obedience. By transgression he would forfeit his Maker's favour, and deserve his displeasure, with all its awful effects; so that he would become liable to pain, disease, and death. Worse than that, he would lose the holy image of God, and all the comfort

of his favour; and feel the torment of sinful passions, and the terror of his Maker's vengeance, which must endure for ever with his never dying soul. The forbidding to eat of the fruit of a particular tree was wisely suited to the state of our first parents. In their state of innocence, and separated from any others, what opportunity or what temptation had they to break any of the ten commandments? The event proves that the whole human race were concerned in the trial and fall of our first

parents. To argue against these things is to strive against stubborn facts, as well as Divine revelation; for man is sinful, and shows by his first actions, and his conduct ever afterwards, that he is ready to do evil. He is under the Divine displeasure, exposed to sufferings and death. The Scriptures always speak of man as of this sinful character, and in this miserable state; and these things are true of men in all ages, and of all nations. (Ge

Genesis 2:18-25)

2:18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should
be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of
the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto
Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called
every living creature, that was the name thereof.
2:20 And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the
air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was
not found an help meet for him.
2:21 And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and
he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh
instead thereof;
2:22 And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he
a woman, and brought her unto the man.
2:23 And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of
my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out
of Man.
2:24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and
shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

not ashamed.

eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and
evil.
3:6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food,
and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be
desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and
did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did
eat.
3:7 And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that
they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made
themselves aprons.
3:8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the
garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid
themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees
of the garden.
3:9 And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where
art thou?
3:10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was
afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
3:11 And he said, Who told thee that thou wast naked? Hast
thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou
shouldest not eat?
3:12 And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with
me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.
3:13 And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that
thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me,
and I did eat.
3:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast
done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every
beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust
shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:
3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and
between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and
thou shalt bruise his heel.
3:16 Unto the woman he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow
and thy conception; in sorrow thou shalt bring forth children;
and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule
over thee.
3:17 And unto Adam he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the
voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I
commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is
the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all
the days of thy life;
3:18 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee; and
thou shalt eat the herb of the field;
3:19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou
return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust
thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.
3:20 And Adam called his wife's name Eve; because she was the
mother of all living.
3:21 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats
of skins, and clothed them.
3:22 And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of
us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand,
and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:
3:23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of
Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken.
3:24 So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the
garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned
every way, to keep the way of the tree of life

4:1 And Adam knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare
Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the LORD.
4:2 And she again bare his brother Abel. And Abel was a keeper
of sheep,
but Cain was a tiller of the ground.
4:3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of
the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4:4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and
of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to
his offering:
4:5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And
Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
4:6 And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is
thy countenance fallen?
4:7 If thou doest well, shalt thou not be accepted? and if thou
doest not well, sin lieth at the door. And unto thee shall be
his desire, and thou shalt rule over him.
4:8 And Cain talked with Abel his brother: and it came to pass,
when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his
brother, and slew him.
4:9 And the LORD said unto Cain, Where is Abel thy brother?
And he said, I know not: Am I my brother's keeper?
4:10 And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy
brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.
4:11 And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened
her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand;
4:12 When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield
unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be
in the earth.
4:13 And Cain said unto the LORD, My punishment is greater
than I can bear.
4:14 Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of
the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid; and I shall be a
fugitive and a vagabond in the earth; and it shall come to
pass, that every one that findeth me shall slay me.
4:15 And the LORD said unto him, Therefore whosoever slayeth
Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold. And the LORD
set a mark upon Cain, lest any finding him should kill him.
4:16 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt
in the land of Nod,
on the east of Eden.
4:17 And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch:
and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after
the name of his son, Enoch.
4:18 And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and
Mehujael begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech.
4:19 And Lamech took unto him two wives: the name of the one
was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.
4:20 And Adah bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in
tents, and of such as have cattle.
4:21 And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of
all such as handle the harp and organ.
4:22 And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer of every
artificer in brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was
Naamah.
4:23 And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my
voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have
slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
4:24 If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy
and sevenfold.
4:25 And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and
called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me
another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.
4:26 And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he
called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of
the LORD
.


In Genesis 3:8, we see Adam and Eve hiding themselves from the presence of the Lord God. Then Cain, 4:l6 went out from the presence of the Lord and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden. Now it came to pass in those days, the Lord spoke to Moses face to face.

Cool. Today, the cool, pre-dawn atmosphere was transforming to me. As I stood there in prayer, the Lord spoke these words into my spirit: The late evening and early morning cool is to remind you of your state of mind before Me when you are walking by the Spirit and not the flesh. When you live by the flesh, your unredeemed state, you will get hot and bothered to the extent that you lose your cool. I have designed you to operate best when you have a cool head and walk by the Spirit in your daily life. Repent. Get back into the cool for today. Focus upon living the Jesus lifestyle all day long. Yes, you have much to do but I am with you. Cool.

Genesis 3:8 "And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden."

Jesus says...Love one another as I have loved you. Why is this? What are the implications of this statement? This statement reaches far and wide into the depth of the root purpose of the gospel. The spirit of Cain must not dwell in our hearts.This is the spirit that murders with various means and tactics...The spirit of condemnation,judgement and unforgiveness. Look at scripture and see why the Love Commandments ...are the greatest of all the commandments as well as the key to all abundant life.

As Jesus was on His way to the cross to die for the salvation of mankind, I believe that He could not help but remember the visual manifestation of man's sin — the wearing of fruitless and barren FIG LEAVES. It must have pierced Jesus' heart to see mankind, who once walked in His perfect love and image, step out from his hiding place corrupted in the covering of fig leaves. The passion, love, and humanity of Jesus could not help but curse this fruitless "autumn tree" that took Him back in time. Today, Satan still whispers through autumn trees: "Surely you will not die. For God knows in that day ... you will be like God."


This provides us a better understanding of why God did not accept the offering of Cain. Cain, as we know, was a farmer by occupation. Abel, on the other hand, was a shepherd of livestock. The Bible tells us that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground and Abel brought an offering of the first-born of his flock. Both of these young men were raised in a God-centered home whose parents feared the Lord. I believe that both of these men worked hard on their offering – especially Cain who would have had to work the soil in the heat of the day. Cain's offering was born out of hard labor in soil that God had cursed. So why did God not accept Cain's offering?

First of all, Cain would have had to know that his parents covered their sin from the "fruit of the ground." God had clearly demonstrated His acceptable means of covering the nakedness of sin and what was a pleasing offering of atonement. Adam and Eve were ignorant to the sacrifice that God desired. However, Cain and Abel would have surely been taught through their parent's mistake that God required the sacrifice of an innocent animal (the shedding of blood) to cover the sin of humanity. God had a prescribed way of worship and it was not the fruit of the ground.

We have "Cain's" and "Abel's" in the church today. Likewise, our spiritual parents in the faith have taught us the acceptable offerings to the Lord. When the "Cain's" of today bring their offerings of what may seem full of tremendous labor and works, it is found unacceptable to God. Why? Because, like Cain, they are serving God in their own way, rather than serving God His way. False teachers will naturally gravitate to the cursed earth (world) for their means of direction and reason. They base decisions on carnal logic of what is right and wrong, rather than childlike faith and simple obedience to God. It should be no surprise that once Cain realized that his offering was unacceptable to God, the Bible says that "Cain was very angry and his countenance fell." This is the response of a RELIGIOUS person when confronted with TRUTH.

The false teachers of today have a lot going on in terms of activity and programs, but over the long run, they produce little to no spiritual intimacy with Christ in others. The institution of hyper-religious activity is a clear sign of a person that has not been healed of rejection and is trying to earn the following and approval of man. (This was the mentality of Cain in his jealousy toward his brother Abel.) False teachers will emerge from the body of Christ because of their need for affirmation and the praise of men. (These are the tares that dwell among the wheat.) The curse of Jesus upon this tree revealed its true nature as being "twice dead." First, there was no fruit. The ability of a teacher to reproduce Christ in others is in the seed that he sows. However, our seed is always in the fruit that we produce. And second, there was no root system that was grounded in the truth of God's Word. The hiding behind "fig leaves" will never cover the nakedness of their self-serving motives and agendas. 2005 will be a year that the Lord will bring the power of His protection to the body of Christ as He exposes many who proclaim to know Him, but don't.

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 'Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name, cast out demons in your name, and done many wonders in your name?' "And then I will declare to them, I never knew you." (Matthew 7:21-23)

The effects that these "autumn trees without fruit" have had on the body of Christ is far-reaching. You can only give what you TRULY have. If a pastor or a teacher in the church does not have an intimate and on-fire relationship with Jesus Christ, what can they possibly give you of any spiritual benefit?

this also brings to mind...from the spirit of Cain...the

and angel with an inkhorn marking foreheads with ink, written in
the lambs book...and all others slain...for the spirit of God

The world is waiting not for a political shift, an economic shift, or even a geological shift. All may occur, and in fact will occur... but the greatest most powerful shift that will take place in the world has nothing to do with the worlds' systems. It has to do with a paradigm shift in the church that releases the greatest and most profound change the earth has ever seen.

The Father is releasing authority in the direction of Love. Where Love prevails... the Father manifests His Presence. Where Love abounds... the Holy Spirit reigns in freedom. Where Love is demonstrated to the world... the people fall in love with the Lover of their souls... and the power to transform a body, a life, a family, a community, and a nation has begun to infiltrate, infect, and mesmerize a world with the awesome reality of the real Jesus!

Around the world this explosion of apostolic love is sweeping millions of people into the Kingdom of God... New England... and this nation is no different. Nothing prevails against love. Nothing is more dramatic and powerful than the Love of Jesus flowing through His children.

THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT ARE LOVE, JOY, PEACE....etc.
CAN THE WORLD COME BY YOUR TREE AND PICK OFF THESE FRUITS??????


Fruit From Heaven
Lanna Perry
4th February, 2007

My precious friends, how I love you and have called you My own.

I am now releasing delicious fruit from heaven.
I am releasing the finest fruit, fruit that mouths and hearts have never tasted.

Fruit grown straight from my throneroom..

For in my throneroom there is life alone..and much growth.

This fruit is My revelations, My words, straight to your hearts.

I am releasing this fruit daily, and I am offering it to all who seek Me.

Yet many of you are feasting on yesterday or last years fruit. It has become rotten, mouldy and disintergrating.

Wash your mouths and hearts clean through repentance, and eat from the new fruit I am releasing.

To receive this fruit that I am giving unto you, you must meet with Me. You must come away and spend time with Me.

It is only through feasting upon this new fruit, that fruit will be seen in your lives and ministries.

One cannot feast on old fruit and yesterday or last years fruit and except a fruitful increase in their lives and ministries.

What are you feasting on My friends?

Come to My throneroom..and feast upon My Word..

Receive the fruit that I am giving unto you..and feast upon it.

Look not to the left and to the right, but look at Me, straight in the eyes, and see Me for who I am, and feast upon My fruit, My truth. I love you.

6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face
of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,
6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they
were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
6:3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with
man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an
hundred and twenty years.
6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after
that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men,
and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men
which were of old, men of renown.
6:5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the
earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his
heart was only evil continually.
6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth,
and it grieved him at his heart.
6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created
from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the
creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me
that I have made them.
6:8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man
and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
6:10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
6:11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was
filled with violence.
6:12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt;
for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
6:13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before
me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and,
behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
6:14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in
the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
6:15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of:
The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the
breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.
6:16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt
thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in
the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories
shalt thou make it.
6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the
earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life,
from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth
shall die.
6:18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt
come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy
sons' wives with thee.
6:19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort
shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee;
they shall be male and female.
6:20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind,
of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of
every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
6:21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou
shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee,
and for them.
6:22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so
did he
.



As I read and meditated on this chapter, I felt that God wants us standing in that place that He has for us. Ready to march forth into the wonder of His Grace -Just like Noah! He wants us to know that our God views our present position as a positive place for us to be. He looks on our heart and revels in the sweetness that lies therein. He looks on the thoughts that pervade our mind, seeing we take captive those that disrupt our walk. He sees us making that stance to serve the Almighty, no matter the cost- like Noah. Just imagine how this must thrill our Lord and King!
