Speaking to the Glory of the Lord!

A DAY OF RESTORATION

The Holy Spirit is hovering over the waters once again.  There is coming a move of the Lord.  Be watchful and ready for suddenly it will break forth.  It will be uncommon and not as anticipated yet very powerful and very large.  It will come forth as a mighty wave that shakes and moves the mountains that have stood in the way of the Lord’s plans and His people.  It will open His way that His may come forth and higher unto Him.  It will be awesome and terrible all at once.  It will change so much yet restore even more.  It is the dawning of a new day.
Malachi 4:

 1For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

 2But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.

 3And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.

WORTH THE WAIT

 

Yes, it has been a long time since you first received the promise of the Lord.  You have fought the fight of faith, and now you are in the time of the manifestation and fulfillment of those promises in your life.  You are walking into abundant life!  Remain humble even after the Lord lifts you up.  And yes, it will all prove to have been worth the wait.
 
Psalm 33:
20Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield. 21For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.

 22Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee

THE DOVES ARE SINGING A NEW SONG

The doves are singing.  They are singing a new song.  A song proclaiming the greatness and majesty and honor and glory of the One Who Comes…The One Who is Worthy….The One  Whose Right It Is To Rule and Reign…The King of Kings…THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.  The doves have risen to the heights of the house and perch there singing in fullness of joyful anticipation….singing in the face of the wind and the storm clouds for they see only Glory in the realm of the divine, and it is time!!!  The doves are singing a new song!!!
 
Psalm 96:
1O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth. 2Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.

 3Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.

 4For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.

 5For all the gods of the nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.

 6Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.

 7Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.

 8Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.

 9O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear before him, all the earth.

 10Say among the heathen that the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.

 11Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.

 12Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice

 13Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

LIFT UP YOUR EYES

This is the time to lift up your eyes and look unto the Lord from Whom your help comes.  There is no human wisdom that can overcome what has and is coming upon this world.  Your hope and salvation rest in the Lord Jesus Christ.  Look up for your redemption draweth nigh.  The Lord will indeed keep you from all evil…He will keep your life!
Psalm 121:
1I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. 2My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

 3He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.

 4Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

 5The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.

 6The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

 7The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul.

 8The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

THIS BATTLE

 This battle is Mine, and you are to remain at rest in Me.  Quiet yourself and come into total rest before Me knowing that I AM God and will bring forth your victory!  You are to stand in faith with complete trust and confidence in My ability to do what I have said.  Now cease your restless activities and quiet your thoughts and words of doubt and fear.  Just wait…for soon your shall see the fullness of My salvation.

 

Psalm 46

 1God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.

 2Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;

 3Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

 4There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles of the most High.

 5God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her, and that right early.

 6The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.

 7The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

 8Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.

 9He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariot in the fire.

 10Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

 11The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah.

 

ONLY BE STRONG AND VERY COURAGEOUS

In the face of all that transpires and is unveiled throughout the earth, only be strong and very courageous for I AM with you.  I will never leave or forsake you.  Rise up in the light of the revelation of My word.  Meditate and study upon My words that you may have My mind and will in your hearts.  Know what I have said and promised.  What is written so shall it be.  You are not as those of the darkness who do not see, hear, nor understand the Truth.  You are children of the light and you see, hear, and understand the Truth.  There is but one answer to all the problems of this world and you know Him.  Wake up to the time, rise up in the light of revelation, and speak up to spread the Truth.  Indeed there are giant problems in your land, but I have given you the land…take it for the Kingdom comes! 

 
Joshua 1:
9Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.

OVERHEARING BUT IGNORING WHAT THEY SAID

Ignore what “they” say!  Ignore “their” words of doubt and unbelief.  Ignore ALL “their” words that do not line up with what the Lord  has spoken concerning your situation.  Continue to stand on His word knowing that He is more than able to perform just as HE SAID!!!  And in not too many days, you shall see the results of the self-fulfilling power of the Lord’s words.  Your victory is sure and imminent!  Hallelujah!!!
Mark 5:
35While He was still speaking, there came some from the ruler’s house, who said [to Jairus], Your daughter has died. Why bother and distress the Teacher any further?    36Overhearing but ignoring what they said, Jesus said to the ruler of the synagogue, Do not be seized with alarm and struck with fear; only keep on believing.

    37And He permitted no one to accompany Him except Peter and James and John the brother of James.

    38When they arrived at the house of the ruler of the synagogue, He looked [carefully and with understanding] at [the] tumult and the people weeping and wailing loudly.

    39And when He had gone in, He said to them, Why do you make an uproar and weep? The little girl is not dead but is sleeping.

    40And they laughed and jeered at Him. But He put them all out, and, taking the child’s father and mother and those who were with Him, He went in where the little girl was lying.

    41Gripping her [firmly] by the hand, He said to her, Talitha cumi–which translated is, Little girl, I say to you, arise [from the sleep of death]!

    42And instantly the girl got up and started walking around–for she was twelve years old. And they were utterly astonished and overcome with amazement.

FOR THE HURTING AND WEARY…

This message is for those who are hurting and so weary this day.  Many are the very vessels that the Lord has chosen to raise up in these days to carry His glory.  The Lord would have you know that He is in control.  There is no trouble or problem that you now face which surprises your Lord.  He knows and sees all…even the end from the beginning.  His refining fires are at work purging all the dross from His precious vessels.  You are not alone for He is with you and watching ever so closely.  He will not allow the fire to burn for one second too long or one degree too hot.  What you feel is close to destroying you is actually making you into His precious vessel of honor. You are greatly loved and highly valued by the Lord.

But also know that the enemy recognizes and senses divine destiny and anointing on your lives.  Therefore he is attempting to plant seeds of fear, doubt, distrust, and unbelief to burden you down with worldly concerns. He plans to distract and hinder or even prevent you from fulfilling your high calling.  But lift up your heads and know from whence your help comes. This is your fight of faith.  Have faith in the Lord God Almighty and cast your cares upon Him.  He knows the plans He has for you and will lead you there.  This is a time in which you must trust in Him fully and as never before. It is not a time to just say you trust in Him, but the time to believe and rely on Him as your Provider, your Strength, your Defense, your High Tower, your All in All, your Blessed Hope.  You will see His marvelous works and wonders manifest on your behalf for He will surely and most certainly see you through and perfect all that concerns you.   Only Trust in Him and be not afraid!

 

I Peter 5:

 6Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

 7Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

 8Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

 9Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.

 10But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

 11To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

CROOKED PLACES STRAIGHT

There has been a detour set up on a roadway that we regularly travel for some time.  It has been a very difficult and dangerous stretch  to travel as the detour was very crooked requiring slow speed and keen awareness to maneuver through safely.  Under best conditions we could expect to sit in a slow moving line of backed-up traffic, and most days we found ourselves at a total standstill for long periods before moving on through.  But just this week we came upon the stretch of road only to discover that the detour was gone.  A short straight stretch of asphalt had replaced the dangerous crooked roadway.  There was no longer any delays or backed-up traffic with which to deal.  It was now just smooth sailing straight through…what had been so difficult had suddenly become so easy!
 
The Lord is speaking to many of you through this.  Hear His message and be blessed…
 
I have gone before you and made the way.  Now walk in it.
 
Exodus 23:
20Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.
 
Isaiah 45:
2I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron: 3And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.

 

HIGH EXPECTATION

You are and have been waiting on the Lord. 
You are and have been expecting miracles. 
You have reached your due date (time). 
Delivery could come at any moment…even this day!   Rejoice in high expectation!  
 
Romans 8:
18For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
