Time To Sow

We are living in times of great revelation.  God’s spirit is raining upon us.

However the enemy is a good liar and seeks to deceive.  He roams around as a lion looking for those that he can devour.  It is good to be wise but not overly fearful.

For many years you have been faithful and ploughed in ground that was hard.  I called a famine and a drought upon the ground.  But now I cause it to rain.

The rain of my Spirit causes you to praise and worship.  I show you things that have been hidden for so long.  I exhort you to listen and record what comes to you.  It is GOLD.

The enemy lies to you and tries to squeeze you and put you on the defensive.  However this is the time to sow.  To plant your dreams.  Sow your prayers.  Listen to what is said and bring it as petitions to me.  Sow your time and your resources.  At a time when the enemy tells you that you don’t have much... reject that LIE... because you are rich.  You are rich IN HIM.  Your faith is as gold and has been refined in an intense fire recently.

Gideon hid what little he had (Judges 6) and after receiving angelic revelation he was convicted to give even that.  The bible encourages you to give yourself as a living sacrifice (Romans 12).

Smile or Simile?

The New President of Iran seems friendly enough. He doesn't look like the sort to pretend to be moderate whilst secretly continuing with Iran's plans to nuke Saudi Arabia and Israel.

Shall we trust him?. Well he does have a lovely smile...

We can then leave the rest to history...

“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?"

For Someone Out There

Still lobbying people with your vitriolic opinions? Despising God's choice of leader?
Do you not even have a trace of "The fear of The Lord"?

"... Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves." - Romans 14:22

Sorry, but...

All Is Stripped Away

Work within God’s plan at this time.  Are you feeling constrained... restricted... cut back.  You must react with a thankful heart.  Does it seem unfair... does it look like everyone else is free and your not.  GOD KNOWS WHAT IT COSTS YOU TO STAY ABOVE WATER AT THE MOMENT.

When the Jews were in the wilderness all they could see everyday was desert,  all they could feel was thirst.  But God was TESTING them to see if they would follow Him.  GOD IS ALLOWING THIS TO SEE WHATS IN YOUR HEART.  They had a choice... moan and get bitter and WANDER or SUBMIT and remember The Lord.

If He marked our iniquities who would stand...we all like sheep have gone astray.  God disciplines those He loves... He saves us from ourselves.

The Cannon of Scripture

Come in the opposite spirit.  The enemy is trying to cause you to be bitter and stay in that offence.  Praise is a powerful weapon.

This is a season of preparation if you are pruned it is to bear more fruit.  If all is stripped away it is because He Has an eye and a hand upon you for greater things.  But remember that HE IS YOUR REWARD.  His approval His affirmation.

There is so much more so... IF HE IS SAYING GO FORWARD THERE IS A REASON.

LET HIM HEAL YOU.

God Disciplines Those That He Loves

It is time to SUBMIT to the process. We humble ourselves and He lifts us up when He is ready.  Be careful of trying to make things happen.

There is a very clear distinction coming between things done in the spirit and things done in the flesh.  In the past there was more room and grace for our pain. There is always GRACE and patience but now God is declaring that we just need to trust Him and not question so severely.

The route to healing is by moving forward. To the man born blind he had no real point of reference, other than to trust the voice of Him who called him forth.

Work thankfully with whatever you have in your life at present. Be on the alert at the same time. THE ENEMY ROAMS AROUND LOOKING FOR THOSE THAT HE CAN DEVOUR... but do not be afraid... God is one step ahead... ONE HUNDRED STEPS AHEAD.

Even if you cannot see a way ahead LISTEN TO HIS VOICE. YOU WILL HEAR A VOICE BEHIND YOU SAYING... THIS IS THE WAY.

If you allow Him He will open the eyes of your heart fully. In time you will stand up tall and breath... saying... WHAT EXCITING THING WILL WE DO TODAY LORD... WHO CAN I BLESS.

He has heard your deepest cries from the deep. He will BREAK the pattern!!!

Beware of RELATIVISM

We live in times where everyone’s individual experience is valid and relevant. This is not a bad thing when we measure our experience by the ONE TRUE STANDARD.

It is time to be armed with NOTHING BUT THE CROSS. Paul claimed to come in fear and trembling because he had no worldly wisdom with which to help people. The worlds wisdom is not enough.

Be careful in these days not to be carried away by your own emotions and feelings no matter how strong.  God made us to experience and to feel but THERE IS A WAY. A standard by which all else is measured. In Genesis, chapter 4, Abel and Cain brought to God offerings from their own understanding. Abel seemed to comprehend that God would only recognise the sacrificial system that God had already established. Cain was like we can be. The elder brother in Luke 15 had stayed in the field and resented what God had embraced in his brother’s return. Be careful not to despise what God choses to do besides you. We like to think that we must be included in all that God does. BUT HE IS GOD.

Do not continue to struggle in silence and make the mistake that it is ‘spiritual’ to suffer. As He passes by throw yourselves upon His mercy. HE IS MOVING AND THERE IS A REASON THAT HE IS ASKING YOU TO MOVE WITH HIM.

Many of us have had an intellectual understanding of God, very often based merely on what someone else has told us. THOSE WHO KNOW THEIR GOD WILL DO EXPLOITS. There is ADVENTURE BEFORE YOU.

 "So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot,

I will vomit you out of My mouth." 

Revelation 3:16

Prophetic Design

Noah's Ark... When it was built, the world must have thought, "WHAT IS THAT???" (that's the polite version)

Constructed inland?, to massive dimensions? Why? What for? it would have seemed an insane venture.
However, when the environment, SUDDENLY changed, the ark's design and purpose, SUDDENLY, made sense! Those that mocked and scoffed at what God had required of Noah, laughed no more!

Individually and corporately, we can sometimes wonder, what on earth we are meant to be, in this life?

We don't fit in, we don't seem to function in the place we stand. Others may not know what to do with you? We are of course looking for that city to come, but while we are here, it can be frustrating if we are not positioned where our talents, gifts and heart-call need to be.

Take heart, The Lord is clear with His friends! "Shall we not tell Abram, what we are about to do?"
If He hasn't yet shown you why HE is reforming you in Jesus Christ, the way He is currently choosing to, He will do soon.

Do you feel like a fish out of water? Well let God sanctify and change you from glory to glory (for His glory). Don't misinterpret, what is actually training!

His design for you, right now, might make you feel unusable, quirky, grounded all the time - like Noah's Ark?

At some point, if we are faithful in the small things, God will bring about the specific environment we were made for!

A boat is designed for the water; a space shuttle is designed for journeying beyond earth's atmosphere; a motor car for driving on roads. However a boat on dry land and a car in the sea... awkward !!! ha ha.

We all, as PART, of the body of Christ, have a bespoke arena that we are called to. Receive God's training with Thankfulness and Joy! Then, when God places us into a different scenario, like the ark, what God designed us to be, will make sense !

There are "prototype people" and ministries, who are being trained and formed for "landscapes", (social, spiritual and physical), that no one has ever seen yet... like the sudden world flood in Noah's day. It is, therefore, understandable that they feel like a square peg in a round hole. Again, take heart... what you were born for is, like a change in weather or terrain, about to introduce itself, IF you obey The Lord in everything; then you will be who He, say's you are.

Ask God for further revelation about His plans for you and others; that will also help us be patient and  bear with others, when we see them as God intends.
