Tell the house of Israel everything you see." Ezekiel 40:4 (NIV) Come away with me and I will give you revelation. I will lavish you with my presence as you sit in my shadow. I am the one who called you out of the darkness. Within my light is health. Pestilence flees before my presence. Cancers dry up and fall away. My Spirit is among you. Look for him, call out for his counsel of presence. Lean not to upon your own understanding, but be filled. Follow what he shall input to you. Let your needs be known to me. Ask from me the desires of your heart. Trust and see if I will not provide. I again am wooing you. Let your heart be excited by me. I will fill you with joy and long-needed peace. Come again into my supernatural presence. Draw near to me. Then the man brought me to the gate facing east, and I saw the glory of the God of Israel coming from the east. His voice was like the roar of rushing waters, and the land was radiant with his glory. The vision I saw was like the vision I had seen when he came to destroy the city and like the visions I had seen by the Kebar River, and I fell facedown. Ezekiel 43:1-3 (NIV) StevenBliss http://www.openheaven.com/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=31506&PN=1 Words to encourage you by Yolanda Ballard (roarnworship@cfl.rr.com) Battle Fatigue To those who have battled long and hard to even get their head above the water, there is hope. There is hope to those who have not given up even though in the natural there seems to be no hope. Never give up for the Lord thy God is for you. He sits at the right hand of the Father, the place of all power, and forever intercedes for you. He sees you conquering, yes, a mighty conqueror, an overcomer. He will never let go of you, and sees the victory already accomplished in you. With God being for you who can come against you without having to go through Him first? The steps of the righteous are ordered of the Lord. Everything that you go through is for the process of perfecting you. Yes, the fire of the Lord that we go through is for our perfection. When you go through the storms, see the victory at the other side. See the transforming power of God at work in you. Everything is transforming us into the image of Christ if we yield to His work. Even our mistakes work for our good. Rise up, mighty conquerors, in the strength of the Lord. Never back down to the enemy no matter how bad things look or feel. Keep your shield up and the word of God centered in your heart. Keep your focus and press in on the enemy with joy in your heart and love repelling all powers of darkness. Never become offended. Shake it off like a duck shaking the water off its feathers. Never allow offense to get under your skin. Yes, shake it all off! Today is a great day of transition. We are going from glory to glory rising up into higher levels of the Lord, but at the same time greater devils are coming against you. Yes, the enemy is sending his big guns to knock you out. He is attacking finances, marriages, health, anything that would rob us of our peace and joy, which is our strength. This is the day to say “no more!” to the enemy. There is not one thing he can do that can separate us from the love of God if you don’t allow him to. Rise up and be strong for the Lord thy God is for you. Do not be dismayed but be glad. Be thankful for all that you have and be content. Do not allow the enemy to rob you of all your blessings. Count them one by one and thank Him for them. Appreciate the help that the Lord puts in front of you. Love people and use things, never the other way around. Now pick yourself up, and resist all forms of condemnation. Know that the blood of the Lamb has already defeated the accuser of the brethren. Seek the Lord for His perfect will for your life. Pray for great grace to walk in it. Claim His wisdom and knowledge each day. Stir up the gifts, let out a mighty shout, and say that you will not be defeated. Wake up with joy in your heart, ready to face another day. Claim the victory and walk in it! __________________ At The Father's Feet http://www.ourchurch.com/member/r/RainNglory/ Edited by LoisFaith2000, Mar 21 2010, 03:45 AM.

Subject: The buzzard, the bat and the bumblebee If you put a buzzard in a pen that is 6 feet by 8 feet and is entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of 10 to 12 feet. Without space to run, as is its habit, it will not even attempt to fly, but will remain a prisoner for life in a small jail with no top. THE BAT: The ordinary bat that flies around at night, a remarkable nimble creature in the air, cannot take off from a level place. If it is placed on the floor or flat ground, all it can do is shuffle about helplessly and, no doubt, painfully, until it reaches some slight elevation from which it can throw itself into the air. Then, at once, it takes off like a flash. THE BUMBLEBEE: A bumblebee, if dropped into an open tumbler, will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but persists in trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom.. It will seek a way where none exists, until it completely destroys itself. PEOPLE: In many ways, we are like the buzzard, the bat, and the bumblebee. We struggle about with all our problems and frustrations, never realizing that all we have to do is look up! That's the answer, the escape route and the solution to any problem! Just look up. Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously , care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us. SEND THIS TO A FRIEND .... I did.

You determine who will get in and who will stay outside. You even do this for yourself in that you determine what you will bind and loose, reject or receive. I give you that choice. But by the power of your tongue, you also open the gate to people so that they go and come freely within My Kingdom. Likewise, you, by the power of your tongue, stop the entry of some into the ways, paths and truth of My Heaven on earth. I have given you power to meditate or mutter; to praise and be thankful or instead to murmur. I say unto you, let the King of glory walk in through your open gate. You are my gatekeeper. Psalms 24:7 (GW) "Lift your heads, you gates. Be lifted, you ancient doors, so that the king of glory may come in." Ras Robinson March 21, 2010. Why has this which has happened got your down? Why are you worrying? This is not a major life changing event. Yet we both know it is different than you have experienced. One year from now you will barely remember it. Ten years from now you won't remember it at all. Can you do anything about it? No! So why worry. Rather than spending the time worrying and fretting, spend your time blessing those who have caused this challenge. Blessing is the activity which will produce wonderful lasting results. You have a choice. I know you will make the right choice. You are precious to Me. You are Mine. You will choose well. Joshua 24:15 (AMP) "And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your father served on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell; but as for me and my house we will serve the Lord."

Jesus stills your storm. Stay in place. You are seated in heavenly places in Christ. Joy strengthens you while you are weak. Body, mind, soul and spirit need refreshing rain. The Rock speaks. Water springs up to fill the empty places. Take courage. The Lord is with you. Pride will not guide you into promised land. Anger hits the mark and draws blood. Speak to the Rock.Do not hit it. The narrow way must see your footprint. Have the mind of Christ! The gift of his thoughts will quench your thirst. Restrain complaint. Restore and offer grace. Light dawns for the upright. Compromise is a complacent companion. "To stand! To stand! I can do no more." We are rooted in faith, hope, and love. We are grounded so that the current does not destroy us. By grace through faith and that not of ourselves...He saves. He saves. Blessings by Byron Putnam http://www.openheaven.com/forums/forum_posts.asp?TID=31538&PN=1

Prophetic Scripture: Psalm 45:7 � Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. God has destined us to live in gladness. During periods of difficulty in our lives, gladness doesn�t always seem to come easily. However, in the Scripture above, we find a prophetic verse about Jesus that shows us how to have gladness in every situation of our lives. We find that God anointed Jesus with the oil of gladness. Yes, there is a special anointing from the Spirit of God specifically for gladness. We can see how this anointing operated over Jesus. He chose to be crucified and according to the Bible, He was glad about it. Now, certainly He wasn�t looking forward to what He suffered because He once prayed that if it were possible to avoid, He would rather not go through with it (Mt. 26:39). Yet, something enabled Jesus to overcome those feelings. Hebrews 12:2, says He saw a course of joy in front of Him that made Him look past all reservation. It takes an anointing from the Lord to look past our present circumstances and be glad because beyond it we see a glorious future. Jesus had something on His life that drew that kind of anointing to Him. It was because He loved righteousness and hated wickedness. When you choose obedience to God and refuse to walk in sin then the anointing for gladness will follow your life. God wants you to be glad today, because when the oil of gladness is upon you, then you will see things like you have never seen them before! Prayer: Lord, I receive the anointing for gladness today. I expect to have joy in my course. Let a new anointing come over me right now so that I am empowered to look past the present and see my glorious future. I choose the course of joy over heaviness today. I bind every evil spirit of heaviness and sorrow and I step into the oil of gladness today! In Jesus� Name, AMEN. ovm.org

But since the fall, it has only been visible for brief periods of time on the earth, here and there. That day has passed. You are now entering the Third Day of My Bride. I will not longer veil My Glory. My Glory will be CLEARLY visible on My People ALL OVER THE WORLD. For I have placed ALL MY GLORY within My Word. Hebrews 1:3 says "The Son is the radiance of God's Glory". John 1:1 says Jesus is the Word. So My Word IS My Glory, and as My People become full of My Word, My Glory will shine forth from the faces of My People. My Face will be CLEARLY VISIBLE on the faces of My People. For My Glory shines from My Face and gives Heaven its light. And the Light that has been shining in Heaven from the beginning will now shine forth in the sight of man before I return" JeffKingshott__________________ My Ministry Website: http://jkstexas.wordpress.com

We are in God's Victorious Army! We might lose a few battles; but, WE WIN THE WAR! God's got an army marchin' thru the land, deliverance is our song, with healing in our hand. Everlasting joy and gladness in our heart....and in this army, we have a part. We're soldiers in the army of the Lord. Marching on! Marching on! ....in the spirit, marching on. We run on the city. We run on the walls. Great is the army that carries out His Word. And the leaves of the trees are for the healing of the nations. Even the Lord's 'old' will be zappy and green! ....... loisFaith Edited by LoisFaith2000, Mar 21 2010, 09:41 PM.
