The Glory Is Almost Here
March 19, 2004
I am God. there is no other. See what I will do
now that that truth is established and tested in a group of people, a holy
nation, you might say. (I do!) There will be an outpouring of blessing and power
like nothing ever seen. You have heard this before; it bears repeating now as we
stand together on the very brink of the blessing.
My people have all gone through refinement during these past
months. Harsh, abrasive scrubbing. It has hurt but the deeper foundational work
has been done long before. This is finishing or re-finishing--final preparation.
Does that sound good--"final preparation?"
I tell you that the cleansing of God's
temple is almost over. Just a little while longer, My people, then the temple
will be filled, filled with the glory of God. Oh, it delights My heart and
should delight yours, if you are not too battle-fatigued and weary to see it,
that we stand ready, nearly ready, to see the temple of God, God's own living
temple, His people, FILLED with His glory.
Don't Look in Empty Places to Fill a Vacant
Heart
March 15, 2004
I AM. Listen to Me: I AM. All the life you
seek is found in Me. All the joy you work to get a snatch of is found in My
presence. Everything I AM is what you need, in fact all you need, to deeply and
fully satisfy your soul. Acknowledge Me in your daily life so that I may be
fully present to you and satisfy your soul. I want to do it. Allow Me to do it
(by invitation). I am yours forever and you are Mine.
Be Mine always. Be Mine alone. Don't ever again give your
heart to other things but Me. Have no other heart-allegiances. Only Me. That's
what I want I will be your Beloved for all eternity.
Fret not. Don't let the beautiful--the Holy Spirit
beautified--bride have a furrow across her brow. I have provided for everything.
Relax and enjoy it.

for Those Praying for Islam
March 8, 2004
What are you praying when you pray over Islam in the Spirit? I will tell it to you: You are praying that Allah will be dis-alloyed, dis-amalgamated, un-embedded and un-wedded from the hearts of the people who worship him. You are praying a separation of something that has been welded in. It is a deep work of separation that only God the Holy Spirit can do. It is going on now. Hearts are being changed, being separated out, being disengaged from Allah. It is heart surgery of the most challenging and delicate kind, removing a growth that is embedded and amalgamated in the very heart of men who worship and serve Allah.
Keep Running the Race for the Glory
March 8, 2004
Go then! Continue your forward motion. Keep running the race for the high prize of the glory of God. I am running with you. Keep on keeping on. Feed your spirit high energy drinks of life and vital spiritual foods. Streamline so you can move faster. On your feet wear the gospel of peace. All the striving for the goal is done is a relaxed, joyous way, allowing Me to do it in you. Every handicap you have is a place for My strength to operate best and every weakness a place for My glory to fill. Go!
Holy Spirit Urging: Keep Going Forward
February 27, 2004
God is Life and one of the key elements of life
is motion. Everything alive moves. The Holy Spirit is emphasizing now that
constantly moving forward is crucial in this hour. He is warning us not to fall
back, not to lose any precious time wallowing in self-pity or disappointment.
Because we are so close to the goal, we must throw off every hindrance and keep
going on, never losing a moment in our forward progress in God.
He says, Go then! Forward, not backward, forward not into
neutral. There is no stopping in the progress we're making, no respite now when
the end is in sight. I see it even if you don't. So allow the Holy Spirit
process to come to its conclusion. We are working hard together even if you see
"nothing happening." It is in high gear, accelerating, and we need
your cooperation and acquiescence--surrender.
The Court of Heaven Is Awarding Restitution
March 1, 2004
Go into your day, the day I have given you, with
a full heart, for today is a day of great blessing. Good things are happening in
the Court of Heaven on your behalf. Decisions are being made and judgments
written that will affect the rest of your days. Know, children, that you are
abundantly blessed in this hour. This is from the Lord, the Holy Spirit, your
Advocate.
These are spiritual blessings: peace, further entrance into
the rest, harmony and joy. These no one can take away from you Only you can lay
them down.
I AM. Life comes out of Me. One of your blessings, and the
overall blessing, is abundant LIFE, what Jesus came to bring. This abundant life
is not reserved for heaven. Instead pray for and expect heaven on earth, here
and now. Life IS Me and I AM life, so this heaven is Me and a greater experience
of Me and more of My manifested presence in your life.
The Court of Heaven Is in Session
February 24, 2004
The heavenly courtroom is open for business. The
process of judgment has begun. Jesus is sitting upon the throne of judgment as
He is shown in the Book of Revelation. His hair is as white as snow and His
garment is pure white, girdled with gold. In His mouth is a two-edged sword, the
Word.
This Word has been fairly and justly promulgated on earth by
His people speaking and proclaiming it. Ignorance of the Law is not a valid plea
when the Word has been widely circulated in Bible distribution, teaching by
tape, radio and TV, and proclaimed by one person to another. This flood of the
Word has preceded judgment, that the Law might be fully promulgated.
Now He takes up His reign in the aspect of judgment and the
courtroom of heaven opens. Angels and intercessors have access and flow into the
official chamber. The Holy Spirit, your Advocate, is there.
Let the judgment begin! It means recompense and reward
for My people. The favor and blessing promised for My people will come out of
this judgment. Be at peace for God has it all in hand. The results will be
according to what is written in the Scriptures. All will be well, says your God.
Good News from Your Lawyer

a full heart, for today is a day of great blessing. Good things are happening in
the Court of Heaven on your behalf. Decisions are being made and judgments
written that will affect the rest of your days. Know, child, that you are

Only you can lay them down.
I AM Life comes out of Me. One of your blessings, and the

for heaven. Instead heaven on earth, here and now. Life is Me and I AM life, so
this heaven is Me and a greater experience of Me and more of My manifested
presence in your life.
God Says, "These Are My Values."
February 16, 2004
The Beatitudes are My attitudes. I am meek and lowly of heart. You will see it. I am broken with compassion, mercy and love. I am so tender-hearted that the most tender one you know doesn't surpass Me. I am a God of power and might but I do not respect these things as much as gentleness and meekness. Know Me. These are My values. When you see Me you will not be impressed by My form, only My glory from My holiness, emanating from Me. I am poor in spirit, despite My glory. I am abject in love and vulnerable in My tender compassion. I am God but I am of a broken and tender heart. When I take on wrath it is only because My tenderness has failed and action must be taken to prevent utter depravity. Know Me today. This is My heart.
We're Beginning to Shine With His Glory
February 9, 2004
Behold My glory. In creation. In people. In the
word of God. In yourself, for the glory is being revealed in the Sons of God.
Oh, don't miss it. Watch and see as the glory of Christ-in-you brightens
and begins to shine out in your outer body. This is such a wonderful work, such
a desire and dream of My heart, that I want My people, My family, to
really see it and enjoy each aspect, each step in the progression of its
development. Oh, the beauty and the wonder of it--My glory, the glory of My Son
Jesus in all its beauty-blast, shining in and through you. My dream-delight, My
heart's desire realized.
"Oh, thank you Holy Spirit," says the proud, happy
Father God, at the work you have done in My children, My beloved dear ones. I am
so happy, I could dance at this wonderful work of God, the Holy Spirit, in
you! (Zephaniah 3:17 "And the Father will dance as on a day of
joy...")
A Gate Opening to God's Glory
February 2, 2004
Note: Many prophecies have recently come forth
regarding an open door, a door to the increase of God's presence, great
revelation and new dimensions of His glory in our lives. This door sounds like
the open door to heaven described by John in Revelation 4:1. The prophetic word
below points out the awesome holiness of this opportunity and calls for worship
at the Eastern Gate of the temple, a place where the prophet Ezekiel saw the
glory of God enter the ancient Jerusalem temple.
Revelation of the Holy Spirit has shown us that we are in
both the Third Day of Jesus Christ and also the Seventh Day of creation, a time
that we are to enter into the Hebrew rest prepared for the people of God, the
fulfillment of the Old Testament Sabbath. The Seventh Day is a Day reserved for
rest and worship. In this word, the worship at the Eastern Gate precedes
entering the glory.
Ezekiel 46:1-3: Thus says the Lord God: The gate of the inner court facing east is to be shut on the six working days, but on the Sabbath day and on the day of the New Moon it is to be opened. The prince is to enter from the outside through the portico of the gateway and stand by the gatepost. The priests are to sacrifice his burnt offering and his peace offerings. He is to worship at the threshold of the gateway and then go out, but the gate will not be shut until evening. On the Sabbaths and New Moons the people are to worship in the presence of the Lord at the entrance to that gateway.
Go to the Eastern Gate of the temple and worship there on the Seventh Day. Bow down, prostrate yourselves. Witness the sacrifice there, and the peace offering. It has all been done in Christ Jesus. Worship at that gate, a door, that open door, for the sacrifice has been made for you. You are about to enter the holy of holies, the increase of My presence, and the place of My glory. I require worship at the eastern gate before this outpouring begins. Let that worship take place now with both the prince and the priest in attendance with the people.
Forever We Will Celebrate Our Love
January 30, 2004
I am yours and you are Mine forever. Forever we have this relationship forged now in the heat of trial. Forever we will celebrate together the champagne of our love. Forever we will read together the Book of Life, which chronicles each step of your coming closer to My heart. Know now that each pain of suffering, each decision to die daily and take up your cross, His cross, each choice for life, is recorded for the annals of history in heaven, and that each will be the subject of rejoicing forever. I know each hair of your head and I know each act of choice of your human will that, with suffering and cost, brought Me closer to you and you closer to Me. Part--a large part--of heaven's joy will be the recounting of these acts in each person's life. Oh, what a joy that will be to Me.
A Call To Pray for the Nations
January 31, 1004
Now I am God and I am ready to do a new thing.
Changes will come in all the earth. People will be ready to hear Me. to hear and
embrace My word, to seek Me. My Spirit is being poured out in unprecedented
terms in individual lives, especially the youth, and while you may not see it,
it is happening. Get ready for a youth explosion.
Now go! I say, go! Go into the hearts of the nations by
prayer. I give you the anointing. I lay upon you praise as a garment for what I
am doing and am about to do in the nations. Grace poured out. Mercy
unprecedented. Glory inexplicable in its grandeur. A move of God unparalleled.
It is all birthed in prayer. I choose you to pray. Make it a motive of your
heart, the driving force of your spirit, and your own land will not be
neglected. I call upon you now to pray as an assignment--and this is for many. I
call you to pray for the nations according to the blueprint for restoration that
I gave you in scripture. Go now and pray. Go now by prayer to the nations I
assign you.
Heaven On Earth
January 26, 2004
"You are Lord of heaven and
earth." Rightly spoken. I will show Myself as such in those who
praise Me that way. To them I will show Myself as God of heaven and earth. Now
what does that mean? Surely it means God of the spiritual and the temporal or
natural. Surely it means what is above man and below, that is, the physical
earth. But it also means combining heaven and earth or "heaven on earth,
here and now." So show yourself faithful to Me and I will show Myself
faithful to you as the God of heaven and earth.
Now behold Me! See Me in My glory. Watch Me as I act. Witness
to Me once having seen Me. Behold Me in My glory. Be looking, watching, peering,
that you do not miss Me. I will be showing forth My glory more and more to those
who are listening, watching, waiting. It will be in natural, humble, lowly
things, people and events.
Your Blessing-God is alive and well, reigning over heaven and
earth. Let the two merge! He says. Let heaven come to earth and earth rise up to
heavenly spheres, says the Lord. Let My people be a foretaste of the heavenly
banquet come to earth. They will feast as others gnash their teeth. I will
prepare a banquet for them in the midst of their enemies. Go forward knowing
that "heaven on earth" is not just a pipe dream but a sure promise.
Love and Truth meet in the street,
Right living and Whole Living embrace and kiss!
Truth sprouts green from the ground,
Right Living pours down from the skies!
Oh yes! God gives Goodness and Beauty;
our land responds with Bounty and Blessing.
Psalm 85:10-12 The Message
You serve me a six-course dinner
right in front of my enemies.
Psalm 23:5 The Message
But here on this mountain,
God-of-the-Angel-Armies
will throw a feast for all the people of the world,
A feast of the finest foods, a feast with vintage wines,
a feast of seven courses, a feast lavish with gourmet desserts.
And here on this mountain, God will banish
the pall of gloom hanging over all peoples,
The shadow of doom darkening all nations.
Isaiah 25:6-7 The Message
The Sword - Two Prophetic Words
January 19, 2004
A flashing sharp sword is unsheathed by God. This
is the Word of God in power. God has unsheathed it. it is the same sword of
Revelation, Chapter One in the mouth of Jesus. (Revelation 1:16 ...and
out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword.)
Go then with the knowledge and understanding of the
Lord, the Word of God. Its full power is about to be released, a sword
unsheathed. And God will judge by the word of His mouth, the word gone forth and
promulgated as law so profusely that no man can be ignorant of it. I have
flooded the earth with the word.
Now I will release My word with power. It is a two-edged
sword dividing the bone from the marrow, the spirit from the soul. It is a
living word. Therefore know and realize that the word is released in power. It
is a flashing sword of judgment. It is strength in the hand of the one who
wields it in compassion and love.
Release My word in you. Stand up to
speak and let the word stored up in you be spoken. Each one of you has a word
that I have embedded in your inner man. Rise up and speak it now. You are My
sword unsheathed.
Ezekiel 21:3 This is what the Lord says: I am against you. I will draw my sword from its scabbard and cut off from you the righteous and the wicked.
January 6, 2004
Go ye into the nations by prayer for My word is unsheathed for judgment. A sword is polished and ready to flash as startling and sudden as lightning --though you have heard the precursor, the thunder of My voice in prophecy. The word of My mouth is a two-edged sword and it will divide the wicked and the righteous, the wheat and the tares, the goats and the sheep. So get ready for judgment on the earth. It will be carried out by the Word of God. You will suffer but suffer alongside. You will wail and cry out but for others not yourself. It will not touch you nor in any way harm you. Hold on.
An Increase of God's Presence
January 12, 2004
I am God and I will BE God more visibly and
audibly in 2004 to you. My presence will increase. Your experience of Me will
heighten. Know this and appreciate this as I go about blessing you with the
increase of My presence.
God is with you in all that you do, step by step, moment by
moment. Rejoice and be glad in His presence and acknowledge His presence. Don't
ignore Him! Be very aware of this increase of His presence.
Shakeup in the Church
January 7, 2004
Now I AM God and I will say this: No longer will I tolerate the heathen behavior in My church. The pagan worship is going to go. I will purify My temple in another stage of refining. The first phase was to purify the priests and the Levites. Now I will purge the throngs who enter the gates of My temple to "worship"--those who have formed Me, God, into their own image and made me a god of their own hands, one they find satisfaction in worshipping, and a god who exacts from them no cost. These are bringing into the temple of God perversion and stain. They are polluting and profaning My temple, that is the temple of My body, the body of
Christ.
Therefore the cleansing of My temple will begin in a new phase. The holy fire that burned in the priests provided sweet incense to Me and spurred Me on. Now I will purge the people and it will not be a pretty sight. Many will drop away, shocked at a God who is "not nice," done with a god who fails to satisfy them in their fleshly wants and desires. They never worshiped Me anyway. They worshipped themselves.
Yet out of this purging and testing will come some for whom the shaking is good. It has woken them up. These you will need to mentor and disciple, for they are Mine.
Malachi 3: 2b-4 For he will be like a refiner's fire or a launderer's soap. He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver. Then the Lord will have men who will bring offerings in righteousness and the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem will be acceptable to the Lord, as in days gone by, as in former years.
I Am With You Moment by Moment
December 15, 2003
Go thy way knowing that I LIVE to defend and
protect you. Even the littlest thing you do or say is important to Me. Know that
I am with you daily, moment by moment. With this knowledge--and
understanding--evaluate your life. Does it matter? If each thing is done
with and in Me, then, yes, it matters--for all eternity. So continue to live in
and with Me, doing all things for and in Me. Continue to trust, even against all
earthly evidence.
For I am a God who is strong to save and today is the day of
salvation. Trust not in planned or imagine outcomes but trust totally in Me. I
will come through for you.
Revelation of God in 2004
December 24, 2003
In 2004 My will will prevail: that all men come to know Me, that I AM God. I will break through the flesh barrier and reveal My Self to many. This will involve a cost to some who have consistently turned Me away. I am God and I will give them one more chance in My mercy to turn to Me. Alleluia.
