Scriptures are from the King James Bible.
This message is NOT for baby Christians or for those who are still on milk, as approved by our Lord. Some Christians ARE on approved milk diets while others continue to partake of milk when the Lord has told them to be meat partakers....
Important Note:
For ANY prophetic words received from ANY source try the spirits, as per the Words of our Lord in 1 John 4:1, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world."
That said - Thus saith the Lord:
It's show time in new dimensions for those who choose holiness. Satan and his children are showing off. I, with My holy vessels, am showing ON. In holiness, there is power that comes from My blessed hands. There is authority in holiness that comes from My anointing. The yoke is destroyed because of the anointing - Isaiah 10:27. There are changes that must be made that CANNOT be made without holy anointed vessels of honor. There are demonic strong holds that cannot be pulled down without holy anointed saints. Such saints are fully equipped to subdue, and to destroy the works of the devil. The power in My anointed vessels causes devils to tremble. Hearts will melt and the fainthearted will quiver from the awesome power of GOD that is about to be unleashed on this rebellious world. Some will be saved because of the burning lights that come from within My sanctified and holy saints.
Those who aren't sufficiently serious about MY assignments - enough...gird your loins - don your robes of righteousness - reject pacifiers - disdain diapers - shun milk - forsake crawling and begging. Put away childish things - 1 Corinthians 13:11. Cease to waver, for he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed - James 1:6. Be not double minded. Forbid to halt between two opinions. My Word says in 1 Kings 18:21, "...if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him."
Embrace and cleave to GOD. Embrace love, faith, hope, valor, courage, and holy sanctified boldness. Keep yourselves pure - pure, people - pursue and prevail. Nothing less is acceptable. Nothing else can slay the giants. Nothing else can stare evil in the eye and not blink. Nothing else can go toe to toe with wickedness and be fearless. Nothing else can conquer evil as can holiness and purity.
Love and forgive people but seek Me for when to move on and to shake off the dust of your feet - Matthew 10:14. Matthew 7:6 says, "Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you." Love and forgive people but know when to let them know that you will no longer put up with their foolishness. I include "Christians" in the lot - those who profess to know Me but their works deny Me. Titus 1:16, "They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate." Romans 16:17 says, "Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them." Longsuffering does have expiration dates. Seek Me for those dates. Indeed, there are seasons when enough is enough.
This is a season when the double minded cannot have potent impact. Steadfast holiness is needed for ROCK moves such as have never been witnessed or experienced. One of My children recently stated about Christians, "We're trying to find new places with old maps." You cannot use outdated navigational tools to impact this wicked and perverse generation. The wicked wax worse and worse. Discern the times. Discern the increased evil. Lukewarmness and carnality is no match for this intensified wickedness. The lukewarm and carnal do NOT have what it takes to conquer the vileness that has arrived to kill - to kill, people. This is ever more serious.
Rehearsal is over. Those who do not suit up for show time will be largely unprofitable for My use. I call forth people who are fit for the MASTER'S use. My Word says in 2 Kings 7:3, ...Why sit we here until we die?" Move forward in Me or become spiritually unprofitable. Move forward in Me or be left behind. Move forward in Me or die. Romans 8:6 says, "For to be carnally minded is death;..."
I need laborers for My harvest. Ready laborers, wholly armored laborers, effective laborers who impact, and through My love and power, destroy yokes. I spue out the lukewarm, rag tag and AWOL - Revelation 3:15. Soldiers, soldiers, warriors, warriors, report for duty that shall be conducted with "now time" weaponry. Desperate souls need us! Bound souls need us! Hopeless souls need us! Put away childish things and do war against the wicked machinations of Satan and his army.
Examine yourselves. Does Satan have anything in you? If he does, he knows it and certainly uses it against you. Are you holy? If you're not, Satan uses that to his advantage. 1 Corinthians 10:21 says "Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils."
Remember that with all of the fighting that Satan does - he's still going to hell. I and My people eternally prevail!
If you desire My best, consistently seek Me, in earnest, for what is necessary to please Me, and to defeat Satan and his wicked devices. I love you.
Rehearsal is over.
Exodus 32:26
Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is on the Lord's side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered themselves together unto him.
Update: Ref: This post
A commenter mentioned that only GOD knows our hearts. I agree except when GOD chooses to reveal the hearts of others to his saints, such as in 1 Samuel when he revealed Saul's heart to Samuel. 1 Samuel 9:19 which states, "And Samuel answered Saul, and said, I am the seer: go up before me unto the high place; for ye shall eat with me to day, and to morrow I will let thee go, and will tell thee all that is in thine heart."
Also, I fully believe in gentleness as the Spirit of GOD leads. All that we do should be as the Spirit leads. Of course, we do falter but overall, we are to walk in the Spirit. There are times when GOD leads to use the rod such as in 1 Corinthians 4:21 which states, "What will ye? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?" And JESUS used a rod, so to speak, with Peter when he said to him in Matthew 16:23, "...Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men." And The Acts 8:20 mentions this that Peter spoke, "...Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought the gift of God may be purchased with money." Finally, Titus 1:13 states, "This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;"
That said, we are commanded in Ephesians 4:15, "But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:"
Second Update:
Today, Wednesday June 22, 2011, I received, via
e-mail, an article dated today authored by Cindy Jacobs. The article is titled, "Does God Have a Plan for America?" In the subject article Jacobs states, in essence, that one reason that things have become so wicked is, largely, because of church apathy - the church has become silent. She stated that we need to be reformers. One definition of reform is: make changes in (something, typically a social, political, or economic institution or practice) in order to improve it:..(Source: The New Oxford American Dictionary).
Here is a link to the article by Cindy Jacobs http://www.charismamag.com/index.php/prophetic-insight/31337-what-is-gods-plan-for-america
It struck me how I posted this topic just after midnight this morning, and then at 10:36 this morning, the subject article came to me via e-mail. How GOD is that?!
Note: This topic is available for copying/printing/distribution. It is re-posted, in part, on blog, "FREELY RECEIVED FREELY GIVEN" at http://www.giftsfromglory.blogspot.com/. Specifically, it is located under the separate TAB titled, “PROPHETIC.” Also, on that blog, in the MAIN section area, at the top of the HOME page, are listed "Conditions" for such usage.
REHEARSAL IS OVER...
ReplyDeleteHello Sandra, Our strength comes from standing on the Word of God. I agree, we have to be strong and unwavering. Also, there is no comprimise...either you are fully for Him, or against Him.
ReplyDeleteBut we still need to act in a gentle love.. with forgiveness as you say. As only the Lord can read a persons heart. Blessings Crystal
Amen.
ReplyDeleteGreetings -
ReplyDelete@Crystal Mary
Yes, for sure our strength comes from standing on the Word of GOD AND from steadfastly doing what it instructs.
I replied further to your comment in an update section that I added this a.m. to this post topic.
Thank you for loving and serving the only true and living GOD.
@Clint
Amen indeed.
The bible truths liberates us from confusion and fear.It give us hope, joy and purpose. "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."--John 8:32. They will come to know the truth and those who don't will be judged by God!
ReplyDeleteHi kemarias -
ReplyDeleteIndeed you speak the truth here, lady.
Amen!
I received a link to that exact article this afternoon! My answer to the question is -- Yes, God has a plan for America. And for His people as individuals. As in Esther, this may be the time.
ReplyDeleteFor if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there enlargement and deliverance arise to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father's house shall be destroyed: and who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?
(Esther 4:14 KJV)
Deliverance will be raised by God even if His children turn their backs on His commands. Is it not better to work His commandments, be within His will? Does He not reward the faithful?
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.
(Hebrews 11:6 KJV)
These are powerful words, and we would truly benefit by taking them to heart. We are in the last days, there is no room for dilly dallying, or compromise, or being double minded. Choose you this day whom you shall serve. This is no time for fence sitters, or spectators.
ReplyDeleteYou are right to say God is looking for holy anointed vessels of honor. We are to embrace fully the season we are in.
This post emboldened my spirit, Sandra.
Thank you.
The red flowers in my recent blog posts are bromeliad flowers.
Blessings,
Lidj
There are lots to chew here sister! Amen! Glory be to God for His Word that lasts forever and ever!
ReplyDeleteIf we truly walk by Spirit and Truth, only then, we can understand the things of God. I always pray for His gift of discernment. As He also is our true source of wisdom, but discernment takes us to another level. Recognizing is different than just knowing...
"Discern the times. Discern the increased evil."
And churches need that as we seem to be in a spiritual deep sleep. Churches need to wake up, stand alert in these evil times.
As I go to work later, your post strengthens me. Knowing that some of the evil works there by some people had gone for so long. Now, that they are trying to quench my fire, I feel that this battle is necessary as I pray for their evil deeds to be exposed in His light. I pray that the Lord is glorified. Pls. pray for me sister as I'm facing people in power and position. My process is long but I will not quit knowing I had not done anything wrong. God bless and protect you.
Sandra - Wonderful, inspiring words. I would have to agree. The curtain is opening on the final act, the actors are taking their place on the stage. It's time for we believers to stand firm. The spotlights are on us - and it's time to shine...
ReplyDeleteGOD BLESS!
"Embrace and cleave to God." Amen...He is my habitation!
ReplyDeleteHello Sandra, Yes Samuel read Sauls heart, because God was in it and he was to do so.
ReplyDeleteI had someone who declared themself a prophet once speak over me, it tore at my already bruised heart. I praise God I was not a new Christian and that the Pastor who was sitting close by and listening, came to comfort me. He was very angry and told me NOT believe it, it wasn't true!!
I am very sensitive not to hurt others with my 'words of knowledge.' Often I just pray for them. Years ago I KNEW a very good Christian friend had gone into a lesbian relationship. I said nothing to her, just prayed accepted and loved. She came out and has never returned. She talked to me about it after becoming suicidal, and she was so surprised when I said I knew. It has been about fifteen years from that time and my friend is very strong today in Gods favour. xxx
Greetings -
ReplyDeleteThank you all so much for your comments.
@Grammy Blick
Yes, indeed, our Lord is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
@Crown of Beauty
You expressed, "Choose you this day whom you shall serve. This is no time for fence sitters, or spectators."
Yes, Hearty Amens to that...!
Thank you for the flower info.
@Sharon
I love this that you expressed, "...it's time to shine..."
May our lights be burning to glorify the only true GOD.
@Crystal Mary
Thank you for your comments and for sharing your experiences. It helps to know how our Lord works uniquely with us. I appreciate how our Lord led you and continues to lead you...
Of course, we know that our Lord leads us all in unique ways. Jeremiah was led differently from Ezekiel. Ezekiel was led differently from Isaiah. Isaiah was led differently from Elijah.
John the Baptist was led differently from Peter, etc.
Years ago, our Lord led a faithful servant of His to give me a Word of rebuke from Him. I cried. I was certain, though, that our Lord had given her that Word for me. Also, I knew that she rebuked me in love. I repented and made the necessary amends. All these years later, I deeply appreciate that she gave me that Word that caused me to cry. I was wrong and our Lord used her to rebuke me sharply. What she did is biblical - Titus 1:13.
I agree that it is also biblical to be gentle. In sum, whatever we say or do should be led by the Spirit of GOD, and in love - for without love, we are nothing.
Steadfast closeness to GOD can increase our love, spiritual awareness, wisdom, and discernment. Such closeness enables us to walk with Him to know how to minister....
Certainly, we all falter, but overall, when we steadfastly cleave to our Lord, we know what He desires...
Often, I stress that we are seek the Lord relative to ANY words from ANY resources because only GOD is NEVER WRONG.
