A Fresh Word and Vision to Persevere and Proceed Forward "Do Not Look Back At The Past "

There is no man (flesh) that can stand in my presence for " I AM "

 I AM Everlasting ,
 I AM life giving and I AM Omnipresent
Though a Vessel is Heavenly or earthly truly I AM GOD and there is no other for I AM The Breath of Life and Creation.
 At My Will alone Existence(Creation) "IS" whether anatomical or spiritual, "I AM" The Hand(Spirit) And King( God and Creator) .
Though many see and have seen themselves as king over their very lives "TRULY I ENTHRONE ALL !
 My courts and Throne are eternal and accessible yet many attempt to access My Gates in the flesh of sin and unforgiveness  and false(lying) doctrine.
 But in this New Year do not look back at the past for Truly before The Cups of Wrath are poured out Truly I Shall Pour Out My Spirit in such a way That the hearts of all mankind will bow before Me " In Choice" and they shall ( (( Know)) ) I AM GOD Sovereign and TRUE and "their choice" will then become "eternal" and "Their Heart's Choice" Shall Be "Read before The Lamb of God" ! Then a ( (( Great sweeping away of The Bride)) ) shall occur and the dethroned of Salvation shall be left behind !
 Be it known in an instant for a day is as a thousand years in My kingdom of Truth .
 Ministries shall thrive now only By My Spirit for the pride of man is about to meet it's demise and though many shall fall away in these last days due to earthly pleasures truly those that follow after their King of Salvation "SHALL" walk in a Christ Like Anointing Truth as NO OTHER  ~ SELAH ~
  Do you see My Children what lies ahead that I have laid out before you ?
 It is My Foundation and Highway of Holiness where My Virtue and  Nature(Loving Kindness) abide Eternally.
 Can you see yourself here ? As an empty Vessel of broken humility for Me to fill and repair the fractures with My True and Faithful Love and Heal and Mend your brokenness with The Balm of Gilead( My Oil of Unity) for truly you "ARE The Sons and Daughters of Oil(Zechariah 4:14) I now and forever Declare before The Father that have received The "YES" of My Salvation and The " AMEN" of My Spirit's filling . . .
 In this walk and arrival into Zion you "Shall be fulfilled" in your walk and calling as you overcome by My Spirit.
 Come closer "NOW" do not make your King and Kingdom( ZION ) wait any longer for "Behold" I AM coming and My Angels of Fire and Virtue desire to bestow upon you My Crown of Promise " HOLY TO THE LORD " !

Proverbs 19:18
18 Where there is no vision [no redemptive revelation of God], the people perish; but he who keeps the law [of God, which includes that of man]—blessed (happy, fortunate, and enviable) is he.
14 Then said he, These are the two sons of oil [Joshua the high priest and Zerubbabel the prince of Judah, the two anointed ones] who stand before the Lord of the whole earth [as His anointed instruments].

 Habakkuk 2:2-3

The Just Live by Faith

Then the Lord answered me and said:
“Write the vision
And make it plain on tablets,
That he may run who reads it.
For the vision is yet for an appointed time;
But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie.
Though it tarries, wait for it;
Because it will surely come,
It will not tarry.

A GIFT FROM THE FATHER, HIS HEART JESUS

   My heart "is" in you my children what greater gift is there from me to you.
 So come, sit and listen for what is on my heart for you my children for I AM Love and though the sovereignty(choice) of man at times makes fleshly endeavors extremely apparent My Virtue(Jesus) reigns supreme and I AM your God of Virtue and life everlasting.

  So choose life and heed my spirit , The Voice of Virtue(Jesus) I have placed in all those that receive Salvation through My Son, for JESUS "IS" LORD and KING and must become yours in an eternal manner .
 So fast the Earth and eat from The Tree Of Life ~ My SON for You ! 

 

  John 17:11-16

11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. 12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.
13 “I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy within them. 14 I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world. 15 My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. 

GOD's TIMING PART 1

 Ordinarily I would " TAKE " you on a trip but I desire to converse with you first as we ~ maneuver ~ through time ! For through time my tapestry fulfills itself ; There is no shred missing or time lapse yet time itself is a thread onto Me in that I quicken its movement through my will and it appeases my purpose as I allow its indwelling to my response .

 Therefore its depth , intention , meaning, seismic dimension or even its relevancy is no matter therefore it is merely a cushion to my pin and needle of creation , " irrelevant time " . 


 
Therefore " NOW " has no magnitude in My Kingdom for object matter is merely a stagnant course upon My pendulum of sweeping wisdom and its latitude bears no guage in the timing of My ways for eternity is neither a constant or an end but an existence with no boundaries what so ever Yet in mind and understanding you shall find the measure of My ways eternal in that My mind is the gate and My understanding unlocks the wisdom of My ways . 
  Job 38  The LORD Speaks 1 Then the LORD answered Job out
of the storm. He said: 2 "Who is this that darkens my
counsel with words without knowledge? 3 Brace yourself
like a man; I will question you, and you shall answer me.
4 "Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation?
Tell me, if you understand. 5 Who marked off its
dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring
line across it? 6 On what were its footings set, or who
laid its cornerstone- 7 while the morning stars sang
together and all the angels [a] shouted for joy? 8 "Who
shut up the sea behind doors when it burst forth from the
womb, 9 when I made the clouds its garment and wrapped it
in thick darkness, 10 when I fixed limits for it and set
its doors and bars in place, 11 when I said, 'This far
you may come and no farther; here is where your proud
waves halt'? 12 "Have you ever given orders to the
morning, or shown the dawn its place, 13 that it might
take the earth by the edges and shake the wicked out of
it? 14 The earth takes shape like clay under a seal; its
features stand out like those of a garment. 15 The wicked
are denied their light, and their upraised arm is broken.
16 "Have you journeyed to the springs of the sea or
walked in the recesses of the deep? 17 Have the gates of
death been shown to you? Have you seen the gates of the
shadow of death 
? 18 Have you comprehended the vast
expanses of the earth? Tell me, if you know all this. 19
"What is the way to the abode of light? And where does
darkness reside? 20 Can you take them to their places? Do
you know the paths to their dwellings? 21 Surely you
know, for you were already born! You have lived so many
years! 22 "Have you entered the storehouses of the snow
or seen the storehouses of the hail, 23 which I reserve
for times of trouble, for days of war and battle? 24 What
is the way to the place where the lightning is dispersed,
or the place where the east winds are scattered over the
earth? 25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain,
and a path for the thunderstorm, 26 to water a land where
no man lives, a desert with no one in it, 27 to satisfy a
desolate wasteland and make it sprout with grass? 28 Does
the rain have a father? Who fathers the drops of dew? 29
From whose womb comes the ice? Who gives birth to the
frost from the heavens 30 when the waters become hard as
stone, when the surface of the deep is frozen? 31 "Can
you bind the beautiful [c] Pleiades? Can you loose the
cords of Orion? 32 Can you bring forth the constellations
in their seasons [d] or lead out the Bear [e] with its
cubs? 33 Do you know the laws of the heavens? Can you set
up God's [f] dominion over the earth? 34 "Can you raise
your voice to the clouds and cover yourself with a flood
of water? 35 Do you send the lightning bolts on their
way? Do they report to you, 'Here we are'? 36 Who endowed
the heart [g] with wisdom or gave understanding to the
mind [h] ? 37 Who has the wisdom to count the clouds? Who
can tip over the water jars of the heavens 38 when the
dust becomes hard and the clods of earth stick together?
39 "Do you hunt the prey for the lioness and satisfy the
hunger of the lions 40 when they crouch in their dens or
lie in wait in a thicket? 41 Who provides food for the
raven when its young cry out to God and wander about for
lack of food?



 Hush be silent in the presence of The King !

Hush be silent in the presence of the King \o/ ,

Allow The Voice of Many Waters through you to sing ,

Out the words and psalms of your majesty ,

That continue to expand My tapestry ,

For in worship you were created to continue in my song ,

Worthy ! Holy ! Is the Lamb of God all day long ,

Oh ! How the bells of rejoicing ring in my majesty ,

So be silent now and just listen to me ,

For I am filling you with My Voice ,

My sovereignty , My will , My choice ,

My very blessings you shall write , sing and speak ,

My testimony creating strong from the weak ,

My joy is your tabernacle My love is your light ,

These are what well up in you , Yeah ! Springing up
through the day and night ,

From glory to glory I shall take you ,

Just sit , wait and listen then rise up and do ,

For as an orbiting pendulum you shall come and go ,

As Enoch does soon you shall know ,

My fire , My glory , My weight you shall bear ,

The twelve fruit of My tree you shall find there !

The depth of My wisdom you shall swim and drink in ,

Through My very understanding you shall take it all in !

My fear shall delight you as we walk hand in hand ,

And as each of you walk in My remembrance you shall take
back My land ,

The wheel within the wheel I shall bear forth for you ,

All of heaven shall become your dew ,

For this " My Zion " before you I bear ,

But for now just come and sit with me there ,

For in faith you are here as I AM in you ,

Now COME and rest upon the wings of your Venue . . .

A WORD FOR THOSE THAT HAVE NO AGENDA BUT THE FATHER'S WILL

Your worship has led the way for a place for the Ark of my Presence to rest and abide in an eternal manner for truly this is My Tribe of Praise (Judah) and House of Prayer now receive all my will for you this day For I have placed My lamp Stand in this place as a Star for others to come to for you are truly my treasure of love and obedience .
 Oh ! So sensitive to Me , such pleasure you give me , receive My Power (strength) now in a new way .
 You carry My blueprint for you all are the Architects of My Presence for you have arrived " for My Zion is in you " .  

     

Ezra 1:5-6

Then rose up the heads of the fathers’ houses of Judah(Praise) and Benjamin, and the priests and Levites, with all those whose spirits God had stirred up, to go up to rebuild the house of the Lord in Jerusalem.
And all those who were around them aided them with vessels of silver, with gold, goods, beasts, and precious things, besides all that was willingly and freely offered.


Hebrews 12:22-24

22 But rather, you have come to Mount Zion, even to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to countless multitudes of angels in festal gathering,
23 And to the church (assembly) of the Firstborn who are registered [as citizens] in heaven, and to the God Who is Judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous (the redeemed in heaven) who have been made perfect,
24 And to Jesus, the Mediator (Go-between, Agent) of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood which speaks [of mercy], a better and nobler and more gracious message than the blood of Abel [which cried out for vengeance].

Your First Prerequisite is to Acquire My Presence

  Your prerequisite in all things is to first acquire My Presence for in My courts there are libraries of scrolls providing the wisdom and knowledge in first acquiring the understanding to decipher and illuminate My Word in Spirit and Truth and it is in the interpretation of your heavenly languages, "that exist even now in the alcoves of your wellspring" but these can only rise up into reality and understanding as you manifest and operate totally in the Menorah of light " The Manifold Wisdom of God " My very fullness indwelling you as "an eternal light of My Kingdom in you".
 
 So acquire My Presence through the knowledge and understanding that My loving kindness is eternally yours for My Blood and Word have made you Worthy forever and ever and I stand as your eternal Mediator before The Father of Eternity and Wonders.
So do not linger and wonder but Come ! Come unto Me for I have your answers as "I AM your Yes and Amen"!

 To follow after Me as the Apostles and allow Me to make you a foundation of "True Humility and Love dressed in Charity for these "ARE" the Clothes of The Righteous that carry My Heart !

Hebrews 12:22-29

22 But you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, 23 to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, 24 to "Jesus the Mediator" of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.

25 See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven? 26 At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” 27 The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain.

28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, 29 for our “God is a consuming fire.”

Psalm 100
A Psalm of thanksgiving and for the thank offering.

1 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all you lands!

2 Serve the Lord with gladness! Come before His presence with singing!

3 Know (perceive, recognize, and understand with approval) that the Lord is God! It is He Who has made us, not we ourselves [and we are His]! We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.

4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and a thank offering and into His courts with praise! Be thankful and say so to Him, bless and affectionately praise His name!

5 For the Lord is good; His mercy and loving-kindness are everlasting, His faithfulness and truth endure to all generations.

Ephesians 3:10-11

10 so that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places. 11 This was in accordance with the eternal purpose which He carried out in Christ Jesus our Lord,
   

Prerequisite

: something that is necessary to an end or to the carrying out of a function

Acts 19:2 “'Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?' And they said to him, 'No, we have not even heard whether there is a Holy Spirit." Verse 6 “And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them, and they began speaking with tongues and prophesying.”

Romans 8:26 states "In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words;".

1 Corinthians 14:13: Therefore let one who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret.

John 14:6 that He is the way, the truth and the life; no man can come to the Father except through Him.

2 Corinthians 5:21Amplified Bible (AMP)

21 For our sake He made Christ [virtually] to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become [endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God [what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness].


1 Tim 3:16 who knew no sin to become sin for us, that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him

  Isaiah 43:18-21

18 “Forget the former things;
    do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!
    Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
    and streams in the wasteland.
20 The wild animals honor me,
    the jackals and the owls,
because I provide water in the wilderness
    and streams in the wasteland,
to give drink to my people, my chosen,
21     the people I formed for myself
    that they may proclaim my praise.

Matthew 9:17-25

17 Neither do people pour new wine into old wine skins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wine skins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wine skins, and both are preserved.”

Jesus Raises a Dead Girl and Heals a Sick Woman

18 While he was saying this, a synagogue leader came and knelt before him and said, “My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live.” 19 Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples.
20 Just then a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the edge of his cloak. 21 She said to herself, “If I only touch his cloak, I will be healed.”
22 Jesus turned and saw her. “Take heart, daughter,” he said, “your faith has healed you.” And the woman was healed at that moment.
23 When Jesus entered the synagogue leader’s house and saw the noisy crowd and people playing pipes, 24 he said, “Go away. The girl is not dead but asleep.” But they laughed at him. 25 After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up.

YOUR VIRTUE

Virtue (holiness) is the spiritual soil of your soul and the river to The Tree of Life I have placed in you for My Son rises up in you . So be the first fruit of My loins for truly you are not an island and I AM your reward . So look not to man in your good doing but take pleasure in pleasing Me your Father of Lights for truly you "ARE" a light on a hill for others never fading or doubting your existence in Me your Peace ( Shalom ) . . . Matthew 5:14-16 14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven. Revelation 22:1-7 The River of Life 22 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. 2 In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. 3 And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. 4 They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. 5 There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever. The Time Is Near 6 Then he said to me, “These words are faithful and true.” And the Lord God of the holy prophets sent His angel to show His servants the things which must shortly take place. 7 “Behold, I am coming quickly! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.” Revelation 22:1-7 Amplified Bible 22 Then he showed me the river whose waters give life, sparkling like crystal, flowing out from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 Through the middle of the broadway of the city; also, on either side of the river was the tree of life with its twelve varieties of fruit, yielding each month its fresh crop; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing and the restoration of the nations. 3 There shall no longer exist there anything that is accursed (detestable, foul, offensive, impure, hateful, or horrible). But the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall worship Him [pay divine honors to Him and do Him holy service]. 4 They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. 5 And there shall be no more night; they have no need for lamplight or sunlight, for the Lord God will illuminate them and be their light, and they shall reign [as kings] forever and ever (through the eternities of the eternities). 6 And he [of the seven angels further] said to me, These statements are reliable (worthy of confidence) and genuine (true). And the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent His messenger (angel) to make known and exhibit to His servants what must soon come to pass. 7 And behold, I am coming speedily. Blessed (happy and to be envied) is he who observes and lays to heart and keeps the truths of the prophecy (the predictions, consolations, and warnings) contained in this [little] book.

INTENT OF THE HEART

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

 Stop "trying" to please me , there is nothing you can do to extend my love past where it already is "Endless" ... for you "ARE" forgiven and My Loving Kindness reaches you no matter the circumstances or arrangements you try to place on me for I have dressed you in My Righteousness and removed "ALL" guilt. "So walk in My Garments of Holiness" and come join hands with the received of Zion for this is already your Place and Home.( Hebrews 12:21-28)

 Speak! Declare! and Sing in the Spirit of your Kingdom Language for truly you "ARE" a Citizen of The New Jerusalem and find comfort in Me. I have made My Spirit your Mother for He creates your day . So find time for Him as you awaken and you "WILL BE" in My Will . . .

 Galatians 1:10 10 Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.

                                                        Paul Called by God
 11 I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin. 12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ. 13 For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it. 14 I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers. 15 But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, was pleased 16 to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, my immediate response was not to consult any human being. 17 I did not go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went into Arabia. Later I returned to Damascus. 18 Then after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to get acquainted with Cephas and stayed with him fifteen days. 19 I saw none of the other apostles—only James, the Lord’s brother. 20 I assure you before God that what I am writing you is no lie.

Vision of a Great Sailing Ship

While standing on a shoreline with The Lord both of us looking out not far off in the calm sea I saw a great sailing ship with twelve sails and hundreds of lines many for each sail some to lift them and many to control them and change their direction depending on the conditions and direction of the wind . On deck I saw just one child of God and a few people they had chosen as the crew not God frantically running all over futily attempting to control and adjust all the sails simultaneously and I sensed each sail represented something in their lives they were trying to control in their own power and understanding not Jesus' leading . God Calling 8-8-14 Rely on Me alone. Ask no other help. Pay all out (let go of the line) in the Spirit of trust that more will come to meet your supply. Empty your vessels quickly to ensure a Divine Supply. So much retained by you, so much the less will be gained from Me. It is a Law of Divine Supply. To hold back, to retain, implies a fear of the future, a want of trust in Me. When you ask Me to save you from the sea of poverty and difficulty you must trust wholly to Me. If you do not, and your prayer and faith are genuine, then I must first answer your prayer for help as a rescuer does that of a drowning man who is struggling to save himself. He renders him still more helpless and powerless until he is wholly at the will and mercy of the rescuer. So understand My leading. Trust wholly. Trust completely. Empty your vessel. I will fill it. I ask of you to understand Divine Supply. It is a most difficult lesson for My children to learn. So dependent have they become on material supply they fail to understand. You must live as I tell you. Depend on Me. I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.

RELEASE YOUR WHYS AND LET YOUR ( (( CONSTANT )) ) ABIDE IN PEACE

My ways are not your ways , do not the planets hang in their places and move at my very command and will ?! So is your life that revolves around me, so do not fight my will for you for this friction will wear you to dust . "Release" your soul, spirit and life completely into my life and leave ALL your whys to me .

I AM the Revealer of My ways in you so hold onto the vision I have given you , repent from "your" ways and KNOW that I AM God alone and I know the plans I have for you to bless your life IN ME! Habakkuk 2:3 3 For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. Deuteronomy 32:39 39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.

Habakkuk 3 Habakkuk’s Prayer 3 This prayer was sung by the prophet Habakkuk: 2 I have heard all about you, Lord. I am filled with awe by your amazing works. In this time of our deep need, help us again as you did in years gone by. And in your anger, remember your mercy. 3 I see God moving across the deserts from Edom, the Holy One coming from Mount Paran. His brilliant splendor fills the heavens, and the earth is filled with his praise. 4 His coming is as brilliant as the sunrise. Rays of light flash from his hands, where his awesome power is hidden. 5 Pestilence marches before him; plague follows close behind. 6 When he stops, the earth shakes. When he looks, the nations tremble. He shatters the everlasting mountains and levels the eternal hills. He is the Eternal One! 7 I see the people of Cushan in distress, and the nation of Midian trembling in terror. 8 Was it in anger, Lord, that you struck the rivers and parted the sea? Were you displeased with them? No, you were sending your chariots of salvation! 9 You brandished your bow and your quiver of arrows. You split open the earth with flowing rivers. 10 The mountains watched and trembled. Onward swept the raging waters. The mighty deep cried out, lifting its hands in submission. 11 The sun and moon stood still in the sky as your brilliant arrows flew and your glittering spear flashed. 12 You marched across the land in anger and trampled the nations in your fury. 13 You went out to rescue your chosen people, to save your anointed ones. You crushed the heads of the wicked and stripped their bones from head to toe. 14 With his own weapons, you destroyed the chief of those who rushed out like a whirlwind, thinking Israel would be easy prey. 15 You trampled the sea with your horses, and the mighty waters piled high. 16 I trembled inside when I heard this; my lips quivered with fear. My legs gave way beneath me, and I shook in terror. I will wait quietly for the coming day when disaster will strike the people who invade us. 17 Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even though the flocks die in the fields, and the cattle barns are empty, 18 yet I will rejoice in the Lord! I will be joyful in the God of my salvation! 19 The Sovereign Lord is my strength! He makes me as surefooted as a deer, able to tread upon the heights.

 John 5:1-9

The Healing at the Pool

Some time later, Jesus went up to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish festivals. Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool(wellSpring), which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades( fingers)( Hand of God ). Here a great number of disabled people used to lie—the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. [4]  One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?”
“Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me.”
Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked.
The day on which this took place was a Sabbath,

Christ Jesus The Roar of Salvation !

 I shall rend the heavens soon in a new way for all the Earth is about to witness and taste of My glory as I (( ( Roar ) )) out salvation over the children of My creation and Now in this Valley of Decisions I shall rise up the mountains that choose Me and have chosen Me . So watch and see for The Latter Rain is about to flourish My Lilies of The Valley I AM about to dress in My Glory   

   Isaiah 64:1-4 64 Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down, that the mountains would tremble before you! 2 As when fire sets twigs ablaze and causes water to boil, come down to make your name known to your enemies and cause the nations to quake before you! 3 For when you did awesome things that we did not expect, you came down, and the mountains trembled before you. 4 Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him. Joel 3:1-16 The Nations Judged 3 “In those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, 2 I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land. 3 They cast lots for my people and traded boys for prostitutes; they sold girls for wine to drink. 4 “Now what have you against me, Tyre and Sidon and all you regions of Philistia? Are you repaying me for something I have done? If you are paying me back, I will swiftly and speedily return on your own heads what you have done. 5 For you took my silver and my gold and carried off my finest treasures to your temples. 6 You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks, that you might send them far from their homeland. 7 “See, I am going to rouse them out of the places to which you sold them, and I will return on your own heads what you have done. 8 I will sell your sons and daughters to the people of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, a nation far away.” The Lord has spoken. 9 Proclaim this among the nations: Prepare for war! Rouse the warriors! Let all the fighting men draw near and attack. 10 Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weakling say, “I am strong!” 11 Come quickly, all you nations from every side, and assemble there. Bring down your warriors, Lord! 12 “Let the nations be roused; let them advance into the Valley of Jehoshaphat, for there I will sit to judge all the nations on every side. 13 Swing the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, trample the grapes, for the winepress is full and the vats overflow— so great is their wickedness!” 14 Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision. 15 The sun and moon will be darkened, and the stars no longer shine. 16 The Lord will roar from Zion and thunder from Jerusalem; the earth and the heavens will tremble. But the Lord will be a refuge for his people, a stronghold for the people of Israel. Jeremiah 5:24 Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the Lord our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in his season: he reserveth unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest. Hosea 6:3 Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth. Joel 2:23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4M2u2TwhSc Jesus the longing

DOORWAYS ARE OPENINGS THAT NEED NO KEY !

Doorways are openings that need no key, You see as my spirit I desire you to move free, For I have already opened each door, I know the plans I have for you and have already evened the score, But it is your faith tested and true, Your walking in trust "knowing" I shall be with you as you walk through, So be like David and even in multitudes stand, For I have placed My authority in your heart, mouth and hand, My Word in you shall not come back void ! Speak and declare ! Your strength is My Joy ! Revelation 3:7-12 7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; 8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. 9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. 10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. 11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. 12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. Romans 15:13 "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope." Romans 14:17 "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit."

MAKE JESUS YOUR PARADISE

I "AM" your Paradise search no further for truly if the Israelites realized this in the desert I would have been their Canaan as wholeheartedly as they would have received me even then and so it is for you even now for I AM The Wind of Fire and Breath of Tongues for you even unto forever and not just on a day (Pentecost) for I AM ~abiding~ in your WellSpring , so simply let Me "Rise Up" for your Testimony of ME "IS" the spark that starts the FIRE and I AM your Burning Bush and VOICE ! Joshua 3:14-17 14 So when the people set out from their tents to pass over the Jordan, with the priests bearing the ark of the covenant before the people, 15 And when those who bore the ark had come to the Jordan and the feet of the priests bearing the ark were in the brink of the water—for the Jordan overflows all its banks throughout the time of harvest— 16 Then the waters which came down from above stood and rose up in a heap far off, at Adam, the city that is beside Zarethan; and those flowing down toward the Sea of the Arabah, the Salt [Dead] Sea, were wholly cut off. And the people passed over opposite Jericho. 17 And while all Israel passed over on dry ground, the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firm on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan. My Paradise is yours my children , Come rest in My meadows of Joy and allow Me to restore ALL as I FILL you with The Riches of My Kingdom in Perfect Peace and Harmony . . . allow My Peace to "BE" with you Romans 12:16-21 16 Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty (snobbish, high-minded, exclusive), but readily adjust yourself to [people, things] and give yourselves to humble tasks. Never overestimate yourself or be wise in your own conceits. 17 Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is honest and proper and noble [aiming to be above reproach] in the sight of everyone. 18 If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God’s] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord. 20 But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head. 21 Do not let yourself be overcome by evil, but overcome (master) evil with good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFFlXzi7Xpk Billy Graham https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMbnyIzVNkU Gods not dead

SPEAK LIFE

You are mine entirely now for My Flames have touched you and bathed you in My Glory among the coals and now I AM the Gold and Silver in your life for "The Veil is torn " and now the Fullness and Saphire of My Spirit  (( ( RESIDES ) )) in you in a abundantly overflowing manner and My Eyes( 7 Spirits of The Lord) are yours for you have already obediently sat quietly at my feet and listened intently for my Voice and will .
 So now "Take" the Fullness of My Kingdom to the reckless and lost for they need what you retain in gladness " MY SAVING GRACE " ! ! ! 

  Isaiah 6:4-8

    Amplified
And the foundations of the thresholds shook at the voice of him who cried, and the house was filled with smoke.
Then said I, Woe is me! For I am undone and ruined, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!
Then flew one of the seraphim [heavenly beings] to me, having a live coal in his hand which he had taken with tongs from off the altar;
And with it he touched my mouth and said, Behold, this has touched your lips; your iniquity and guilt are taken away, and your sin is completely atoned for and forgiven.
Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send? And who will go for Us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.

  Revelation 3:8

I know your [record of] works and what you are doing. See! I have set before you a door wide open which no one is able to shut; I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept My Word and guarded My message and have not renounced or denied My name.

 Revelation 3:18

18 Therefore I counsel you to purchase from Me gold refined and tested by fire, that you may be [truly] wealthy, and white clothes to clothe you and to keep the shame of your nudity from being seen, and salve to put on your eyes, that you may see.

  Job 22:25

 And make the Almighty your gold and [the Lord] your precious silver treasure,

  Revelation 5:6

And I saw between the throne (with the four living creatures) and the elders a Lamb standing, as if slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.

BIRTH RIGHT " PREPARE THE WAY "

 Perspiration comes by completing tasks of arduous birth but do not grow weary for the fruit you bear shall feed many and I shall multiply your toil into The Riches of The Kingdom for you birth Righteousness as Abram into Abraham for now you carry the Breath of The Living God and I have blessed your hands as Jacob so that nations will be fed from the leaves of healing and drink from The River of Life for you "ARE" The Coals of My Testimony that come from my very throne .

Luke 22:44 And being in an agony [of mind], He prayed [all the] more earnestly and intently, and His sweat became like great clots of blood dropping down upon the ground.


Genesis 17:5

Nor shall your name any longer be Abram [high, exalted father]; but your name shall be Abraham [father of a multitude], for I have made you the father of many nations.



Isaiah 6:6-8


New Living Translation

6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal he had taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. 7 He touched my lips with it and said, “See, this coal has touched your lips. Now your guilt is removed, and your sins are forgiven.”
8 Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?”
I said, “Here I am. Send me.”

Revelation 22:2

2 Through the middle of the broadway of the city; also, on either side of the river was the tree of life with its twelve varieties of fruit, yielding each month its fresh crop; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing and the restoration of the nations.

Abram, Abraham [Ä€'brăm,Ä€'brăhăm]—the father of a multitude. The original name of the youngest son of Terah was Abram, meaning “father of height.” Abraham was given to him when the promise of a numerous progeny was renewed to him by God (Gen. 11:26; 17:5, 9).

The Man Who Was God’s Friend

Abraham’s place in the Bible’s portrait gallery is altogether unique and unapproachable. He stands out as a landmark in the spiritual history of the world. Chosen of God to become the father of a new spiritual race, the file leader of a mighty host, the revelation of God found in him one of its most important epochs. In himself, there was not much to make him worthy of such a distinction. His choice was all of grace.
Abraham’s life is given us in detail, and we know him as we know few men of the Bible. He was from the great and populous city of Ur, and therefore a Gentile although he became the first Hebrew. He was a rough, simple, venerable Bedouin-like sheep master. He uttered no prophecy, wrote no book, sang no song, gave no laws. Yet in the long list of Bible saints he alone is spoken of as “the father of the faithful” and as “the friend of God” (Isa. 41:8). Let us briefly sketch his story and character.
I. He was born in Ur of the Chaldees, of parents who were heathen. Little is known of him until he was seventy years old, a striking proof that he had yielded himself to God before he left his heathen home for the far-off land of Canaan.
II. He received a distinct revelation from God, and of God, but we are not told how and when. This, however, we do know: He gave up a certainty for an uncertainty and went out not knowing whither he went. Willingly he surrendered the seen for the unseen.
III. He was taught the lesson of patience, of waiting upon the Eternal God. It was many years before the promise of God was fulfilled to him—promises three in number—of a country, Canaan; of posterity, as the stars of heaven; of a spiritual seed, through whom all the families of the earth would be blessed.
IV. He believed as he waited. His soul fed upon the promises of God. He believed God in the face of long delay and also amid difficulties that seemed insuperable. This is why he is called “the father of all them that believe.”
V. He was renowned for his active, working, living faith (Gen. 15:6). Abraham believed in God and it was counted to him for righteousness.
VI. He was subject to failures. His character, like the sun, had its spots. Abraham’s conduct to Hagar on two occasions, in sending her away, is painful to remember. Then his departure from Canaan into Egypt when the famine was on was surely not an act of faith. The falsehood which on two occasions he told with regard to Sarah his wife gives us a glimpse into a natural character somewhat cowardly, deceitful and distrustful (Gen. 12:19; 20:2).
VII. He was called to offer up special sacrifices. The first is fully described in Genesis fifteen, where the five victims offered in sacrifice to God were symbolic and typical of the whole Mosaic economy to come. Then we have the offering up of Isaac, an act of faith on Abraham’s part and yet a trial of faith (Gen. 22). What a demand God made! But Abraham did not withhold his only son of promise. What God wanted was Abraham’s heart, not Isaac’s life. So when the knife was raised to slay Isaac, a provided substitute appeared. After this sacrifice Abraham received the testimony that he had pleased God.
The Bible offers us many types of Christ, Isaac being one of the chiefest, but Abraham is the only type in Scripture of God the Father. Abraham so loved God as to give up his only son, and centuries before Christ was born entered into the inner heart of John 3:16. After serving God faithfully, Abraham died when 175 years of age.
There are many profitable lessons to be gleaned from the biography of this notable man of God:
Faith has always trials. Being a Christian does not mean that trial is impossible or unnecessary. The greater the faith, the greater the trial.
Faith shines through the cloud. How the patience and meekness of Jesus are manifest through His trials! Take away Abraham’s trials and where is his faith? Faith must be tried, in order that faith may live.
Faith in spite of trial glorifies God. Abraham’s story is written in tears and blood, but how God was glorified by his trials of faith! Abraham’s obedience of faith earned him the honor, “Abraham My friend!” Truly, there is no greater rank or greater honor than to be described thus. Yet such is our privilege if ours is the obedience of faith, for did not Jesus say, “I have called you friends”? He also said, “Ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever I command you.”
