Consider This... There Is A Wall Between Us.

CONSIDER THIS... There is a WALL BETWEEN US.
“The voice of my beloved behold he cometh leaping UPON THE MOUNTAIN" (Song of Songs 2:8)... "my beloved is like a roe or a young hart behold HE STANDS BEHIND OUR WALL."

When we are a child we protect ourselves from hurt. However the very thing that is used in this way CAN BECOME A PRISON. When we try to turn to the Lord we find it hard in the long term to have the kind of un-hindered and free communication that He wants for us.

CONSIDER THIS...
"We have many more things to say and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing" (Hebrews 5:11)

We are spoilt for teaching and meetings in the western church. We go from place to place according to the preacher and style that we prefer.  We even become cynical when we say... "I have heard it and it sounds great but I still hurt". Our worship has become routine and frantic, but our problems become worse.

CONSIDER THIS...
‘Therefore behold I will hedge up thy way with thorns AND MAKE A WALL, that she shall not find her paths... then she shall say... I WILL GO AND RETURN TO MY FIRST HUSBAND  (Hosea 2:6)

So WHERE IS THE HOPE. The hope lies in being honest.

Turn to Him let Him love you. Let Him heal you. Let Him renew you. LET HIM BE YOUR FIRST LOVE AGAIN. (Revelation 2:4)

Be honest... acknowledge that He allows us to be in this position. His LOVE disciplines us. THERE IS HOPE but it is right in the middle of what seems to be a mess. (Hosea 2:15)

THE ENEMY SAYS ITS ALL OVER BUT GOD SAYS... YOU ARE JUST BEING PREPARED.

Consider This

God is so patient and kind to us.
He lets us go on as if we think we know what we are doing and don’t need much help.


‘Ye have sown much and bring in little: ye eat but ye have not enough...’ (Haggai 1:6)
IS IT TIME FOR YOU TO DWELL IN YOUR CEILED HOUSES, AND THIS HOUSE LIE IN RUIN Hag.1:4

I am pleased with your diligence and your courage and you have stood when many fell.  But I want to begin to show you the things that I prepared for you to do before everything... YOU ARE MY WORKMANSHIP. It is time to GO UP TO THE MOUNTAIN and bring wood TO BUILD.Hag.1:8
So that you can do the most for the kingdom and not be exhausted by all that effort which takes its toll on you physically.

I don’t make it difficult for you and talk in riddles so you are condemned and say...how are we not considering. Hebrews 12:18-22 shows you. You have come to HOPE, not FEAR... COME TO ME AND BE HEALED... BE FREE... BE HAPPY... BE EXCITED... BE RENEWED.

So consider how you come to fear or bondage.  Don't examine your navel.  IT IS THE KINDNESS OF GOD THAT LEADS TO CHANGE... I am sick of empty words and well meaning intention... It is a broken and contrite heart that I look for.

So GO TO THE MOUNTAIN... allow me to renew you.
Consider this... FOCUS ON ME LOVING YOU... TURN TO ME... because trust me I WILL RENEW YOU and everyone will see it... the world will be drawn to me says the Lord ‘every eye will look upon the one they afflicted" Revelation 1:7.  We live in times of legion!! (see Mark 5:3)

Let me light the fire again.

A Word For The Body Of Christ In Bath

Wake up call.

NOW is the time. A defining moment is here. The Trumpet calls.

We must say in ourselves… I will arise and go to my Father... HOW MANY HIRED SERVANTS OF MY FATHER HAVE BREAD ENOUGH TO EAT AND TO SPARE AND I PERISH WITH HUNGER (Luke 15:18)

But you say... I will begin when I am healed... I will change when I feel better... Consider the situation... Listen to what comes out of your mouth... Listen to what is in your heart.

You say... Is it possible... how can a leopard change it’s spots how can man enter his mother’s womb and start again. Listen to the words of Jesus... do what He suggests... Be honest.

You have done so much in your own strength and have achieved too little. TURN TO ME I will cause you to be birthed again by my Spirit.

For too long have  you been afraid... It is not a question of doing great things in the nation it is just SMALL BEGINNINGS THAT I LOOK FOR. I know how weak you feel.

I begin where you end… yet the enemy tries to convince you that it is all over when you fail. That's a lie. Start by fighting that voice in your life.

ALL I LOOK FOR IS AN ATTEMPT TO SEEK ME. JUST THE BEGINNINGS OF CHANGE… but it is in your weakness... in your valley... in your pain.

TAKE MY HAND TODAY... WE’RE GONNA GET THROUGH THIS.

Daniel Chuter

FROM WHERE WE ARE, WHEN IT HURTS, TO WHERE HE IS.

When you enter the camp of the enemy, the reality of what once was a line in a song, hits.  Elijah was discouraged, understandably so, for he had challenged the enemy in the land and was on the back foot pursued by Jezebel.  So it has also been for us.  HOWEVER... God challenged him. 1 Kings 19:9 God asked Elijah what he was doing there in the cave feeling defeated.  Wasn’t obvious.

In John 11. the story of lazarus sees Mary overwhelmed by grief and disappointment.verse 31.  She stayed at home.  A normal reaction.

People have gathered around you and tried to offer comfort but some of them have only sought to control you and their motivation is their own promotion.  We are living in times where we must move from our own comfort to where he is.  Because He is a God of the impossible.

The key for Elijah in the cave and Mary at home was the rhema word of God coming directly to them. WAIT FOR HIS WORD TO COME.

Nobody is saying that its not a process....of Gods kindness, but there comes a time when we must be aware that there is an enemy that doesn’t want us to be healed and free.

So how does this work..you say.

THE KINDNESS OF GOD LEADS TO CHANGE.

If you are in that place...step out, through praise.  Don't let the enemy steal from you any longer.

Daniel Chuter

Sowing Time

We are living in time of great revelation. But it is hard. In fact it even hurts.

You are like a garden to me that has been hidden. I come to my garden to see what fruit is on the trees.  In your worship and praises you build a platform and a throne for me to come.
When you move into a new house often the sol in the garden is hard. Perhaps building work around the property has made the ground tough. Perhaps the builders themselves have compacted the ground as they have worked.

May I make a suggestion... you are a work in progress. What will be has not yet been fully formed.  This is a crucial time in your growth don’t let anyone burden you again.

REMEMBER THE LORD. When all seems so hard and bitterness tries to overshadow.

REMEMBER THE LORD!!

In Mark 4, Jesus talked of the word of God being as a seed. Some fell on stony ground and the sun came up and there was no real root for the seed and some fell among thorns and was choked but some fell on GOOD SOIL... Let Him find the good soil.  Don’t despair because the ground seems stony, beneath it is good soil.

In Bath, dig a bit deeper THERE IS GOOD SOIL.

In your own hearts abandon bitterness and REMEMBER THE LORD

But how do I dig deeper... well do the thing that you are anointed for. If it has God’s approval it will MOVE MOUNTAINS.

Wood For Trees

When I can’t see wood for trees,
And the way is overcast and drear,
No light to clearly see the way,
The winding path, whilst there, creates a fear,
Where are You Lord, where are You?

‘My child, why do you fear the way I lead?
Though overcast and drear it seems,
Do you not know I lead the way,
And I will safely keep your steps, until you know
With certain hope that I am with you.

So, speak Lord, in the quiet glade,
Where leaves cast dancing shadows bright ,
And speak, Lord in the darker place,
When light is dim and uncertain steps are all my sight,
Speak, Lord, speak Your word to me.

‘Take time, my child, and learn of Me,
Allow yourself in this quiet space,
Although uncertain seems the way
Seek my face in the stillness of this quiet place,
For there I’m found .. be found of me.’

And at your voice the way ahead grows light,
And wider, safer, clearer seems the path,
A new perspective of your love I grasp,
That in the drear, the overcast, yet You are there
And it is Your heart that leads me through..
