Remember: You must continue to fight!
Posted By: Henry Falcone
My beautiful Bride in waiting, you must continue to fight. You must continue to press through. Don't stop now. Don't get caught in the ordinary. Don't allow the circumstances to stop you from being with Me. You must continue to fight. Yes, many have said this is the "fight of faith, or that is the "fight of faith," but the true fight of faith is, "For he that comes to God, must believe that He is, and He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him.
You must press through. You must not stop. You must continue to fight of faith and believe that I AM that I AM! The things around you will not get easier. I warned you that in the last days there would be perilous times, hard to deal with and hard to bear. They are upon you now. The time of all things to be completed will soon come upon the world.
You must contend for that which is most precious. You must not allow the enemy to rob you of abiding in the vine, I am the vine you are my branches. Remember apart from me you can do nothing. You must fight everyday to overcome the "ordinary, the trials, tribulations that come in this life and enter into my Sabbath Day rest I have prepared for the people of God. If Joshua had provided for you, I would not have mentioned another day. So my love, my undefiled one, you must "strive diligently" to enter into that rest.
I am that resting place, and your place is to be fully in Me and Me in you that we are one just as I prayed and recorded by John. The Father in Me, me in the Father and you and us. Why? So the world would believe that the Father loves you the same way that He loves me. Why? So they would believe that the Father sent me to save the world.
It is time for you to come to full grown maturity. I am about to accelerate this work in those who have prepared themselves and are looking for Me alone. Those who have come past the things my hands provide, or the blessings that I give. But to those who have Me alone as their desire a great expansion is about to come, a great supernatural maturity is going to be released to finish the work I have started in you. And you will be a witness to the Gospel of the Kingdom in every nation and then the end will come.
You must continue to fight for our "relationship" to be what I desire it to be. There many things you must overcome, the flesh, the devil, life as you know it, to press into the Holy of Hollies where you will receive My Glory, the Glory my father said I could give to you, that we would be one.
You must not let the situations stop you. You must not let the family problems stop you. You must not let the affairs of the world stop you. You must not let your job, your home, or anything stop you from being with Me. For I have promised to come and bring you back, so that where I am you shall also be. Today, I want to release a deeper warring heart in you. A deeper spirit in you that will contend for that place I have prepared for you by my side. A deeper love to be with me as I so long to be with you.
I know many of you are battle wearied. Many of you "my loves" have been wounded and broken in this process. Many of you say, "Lord, I can't even lift up my head." "I can't even see a better day." My tender ones, I will never leave you or forsake you and never leave you without the help you need.
I am causing you to go beyond the natural. I am causing you to go beyond your flesh or your own strength and ability. I am causing you to overcome all these things in weakness so you can receive my strength. My strength is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.
Have you learned what I have been trying to teach you? Are you allowing me to empty you of your wisdom, strength and power. Yes, my love that is what these circumstances will work in you, if you allow my heart and my desires to be your desires. Then you will stop kicking against my working, but you will surrender to it, and I will work my power in your speedily and cause you to grow beyond the years of a natural believer.
You must continue to fight. You must pray and seek me like never before. You must come and dwell in the secret place with me in My Tent of Meeting for there I will give you my love and through my love for you, you will overcome the world even as My Father's love for Me caused me to overcome the world for you. AS I WAS IN THE WORLD, SO ARE YOU!
Now rise up my love, my fair one, and come away with me into the new heights I have for you, but you must contend for it. You must continue to fight and refuse to be defeated. Even if you stumble and fall, get up right away and refuse to lose. Refuse to be defeated for not one weapon formed against you will prosper and every tongue that rises up against you shall be condemned. If I am for you, says the Lord, who can be against you.
You must continue to fight. You must continue to pray. You must continue to seek me with all your heart. Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God. Remember, you must continue to fight!

Infinite Supply - Today's Message from Chip Brogden
February 17
INFINITE SUPPLY
Today's Message from Chip Brogden
"Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven."
MATTHEW 5:3
This spiritual poverty is the result of recognizing that apart from
Him we can do nothing. It is a willingness to be broken and reduced
to spiritual bankruptcy, which implies not only losing everything
we once enjoyed, but also making a fresh start with a clean slate
and all our debts erased. It is the Second Universal Spiritual
Principle, which states: "I must decrease" (John 3:30). This
decreasing, or as I like to say, this reducing to Christ, is the
first requirement.
If we are unwilling to be emptied then we cannot have the riches of
the Kingdom of Heaven. We will be like the Laodicean church, who
said they were "rich and increased with goods and have need of
nothing" yet in God's sight they were poor, blind, naked, and
miserable (Revelation 3:17). So the Kingdom belongs to those who
readily admit right from the beginning that "a man can receive
nothing unless it has been given to him from heaven " (John
3:27).

Inaccurate Prophetic Releases
Inaccurate Prophetic Releases
by Apostle Adrienne Williams
People of God, there are too many people who are opening themselves up and allowing their Spirit to be soiled and contaminated with someone else's religious waste. In simplicity, cease allowing people to deposit their garbage into your spirit! Cease allowing people to "practice" their prophesying on you!
There are many CHOSEN vessels that God HAS, indeed, ALREADY positioned to deal with those who either "prey" on unknowing believers or continue to attempt to deposit "surface" prophesies or even worse, RECYCLED prophecies that they may have heard from someone else, into the spirit of an unsuspecting believer. In other words, the time has come when those CHOSEN vessels will JUDGE THAT WORD being released at the very moment that they hear.
This means that if it is a false word or a "fleshly" word, it SHALL be revealed at the moment of release. When people come to you under the auspices of "feeling your Spirit" or "picking you up in the Spirit", you need to immediately stop them right then and there (in love) and inquire concerning EXACTLY what it is that are "picking up" or "feel!" A true messenger WILL be able to advise you further and give you a certain measure of details! That's IF, the word they are attempting to deliver is truly coming from the Lord!
Our Father is in need of CLEAN and PURE vessels to deliver ACCURATE and PRECISE words of correction and edification to His people to assist in their spiritual maturation. Not merely vessels who have succumb to familiarity and are satisfied functioning in "a form" of godliness with NO POWER!

A Scripture to Memorize
18There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. 1 John 4:18

From The Backside to The Frontline
From The Backside to The Frontline
People of God, while we are looking at TBN seeking the next "voice to the nations" as well as continually wrongfully judging those who do not have mega ministries as insufficient, we need to begin looking on the backside of the mountain or even in the wilderness (the hidden places) for the next voice of SUBSTANCE!
This IS the moment in time when you WILL begin to see those who are UNKNOWN to man but WELL KNOWN to God come to the frontline! Yes, THE GUARDS HAVE CHANGED! There are platforms being prepared ESPECIALLY for these messengers RIGHT NOW so that the word that GOD has placed in their belly, when released, will cause a wave of CHANGE and TRANSFORMATION in the lives of those who have an ear to hear!
They have not yet appeared on TBN or The Word Network BUT THEY WILL! They have not yet written books BUT THEY WILL! In this season, listen for the voice of God through the voice crying in the wilderness! These messengers REALLY have been mantled with a voice and a word IN DUE SEASON that will literally shift the paradigm of thinking of God's people!

Thank you so much!
2012 "An Unconventional Year" Prophetic Insights
* I have a few things that I would like to express to you... ...before I share.
As I prepare to communicate with those whom the Lord may have read these insights that He has impressed me with for the year 2012, I would like to advise that you would read with the intention of allowing the Holy Spirit to direct you to the Word of God for further confirmation and direction.
No one prophetic voice hears all, and it is a wise person who will listen to what the Lord would say through many individuals who have words to share. There will be a thread or theme that flows out of the multitude of voices, and the Lord will prune away what may well be opinions, personal expressions and flamboyance, or even sensational one-upmanship or eerie predictions filled with dread, or � maybe even ambiguous supernatural potential events.
Having shared this, please-as one of God�s own children, always return to His plumb line of the scripture to bring wisdom and balance to any prophetic words you may hear.
Let�s Begin:
2012 - An Unconventional Year
This will be a year where what often looks to be predictable and obvious will instead, go an entire different direction or take an unpredictable course.
The word � Unconventional� has been the keynote word from the Lord to me.
The word unconventional means:
Unusual, irregular, unorthodox, unfamiliar, uncommon, unwonted, out of the ordinary, atypical, singular, alternative, different; new, novel, innovative, groundbreaking, pioneering, original, unprecedented; eccentric, idiosyncratic, quirky, odd, strange, bizarre, weird, outlandish, curious; abnormal, anomalous, aberrant, extraordinary; nonconformist, Bohemian, avant-garde; informal far out, offbeat, off the wall, wacky, madcap, oddball, zany, hippie, kooky, wacko.
�In his heart a man plans his course,
But the LORD determines his steps.�
Proverbs 16:9
GOD AND MAN AT ODDS
Many have built platforms and empires within their own self-created spheres that have brought for some, great levels of visibility and success. This applies heavily to corporate leaders as well as those holding on to the concept spiritually that one key leader is the �voice� for the many.
2012 will be a year where the abuses of power will continue to be not only exposed and addressed, but will also appallingly be made public and drug through more and more media mud slinging.
Again, the Lord has graciously given time to those who still cling to entitlement and an attitude of �specialness," presuming they are more anointed, more brilliant and who have consistently attempted to be notable authorities, without having the personal lives behind the scene, that honor the heart and purposes of God.
It will be as if a box has been opened for all to see its hidden contents, or perhaps a drape drawn back to see what is hidden behind it. Plagiarism will be rampant in publications in both specular and spiritual genres. It will expose poor scholarship and rushed materials meant to entice hearts and to stroke the ego of the writer.
All of this the Father has warned over and over again within the heart of those now seared by greed and weak confidence in God�s plan and chosen times for promotions.
� Some became fools through their rebellious ways,
And suffered affliction because of their iniquities.�
Psalm 107:17
TURNING AWAY FROM PRESUMPTION
So often the Lord has had to deal with the issue of His people presuming that, �They know how� He-The Lord will or � �should� move in certain settings, only to be gravely disappointed and shocked when it appears as if the opposite happens.
To presume means to take for granted that something exists or is the case. It also means to make unjustified demands; take liberties.
Unless we as believers become solidly and firmly trained up in the study of the Scripture, not just the memorizing and quoting of it randomly, there will continue to be fractured teaching and many bizarre approaches to what is the plan of God for his people on planet earth.
�And He said to them, be careful what you are hearing. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you--and more [besides] will be given to you who hear.�
Mark 4:24
�Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved [tested by trial], a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth.�
2 Timothy 2:15
POSTURING OR PARENTING?
As the Lord continues to build and establish the model of genuine �Apostolic Fathering and Mothering," in 2012 there will be a notable �fork in the road� for those called to this daunting assignment from Heaven.
The Father has asked me to lovingly but firmly warn those who are now in the possible place of having broader influences over another generation of developing young and tender leaders, to be very aware of where they stand.
A healthy and wise parent or mentor will train, model and provide safe boundaries for their children or students to grow and learn to step out into, knowing that they will experience difficulties and hardships, as well as many exciting growth spurts.
Those who need to have a following or remain as �cool and hip� as the young people they mentor will face a serious clash in the days ahead of them. Name dropping, self promoting of their spiritual acumen and harsh or condescending talking down to those in their care will result in being disqualified from moving into the next promise of Apostolic training and mentoring centers, which the Lord has been preparing for several decades.
Saying things like �This is the way that you are� or that you are �set in your ways� exposes willfulness and a need for control. So does boasting that you have worked hard and have �earned� your title and position.� Those who posture or continue to tout their �higher levels of knowledge and insight� will become a sour source of reference, and the King of heaven will not bless them with further influence.
They now have a choice to set things right with those whom they have �kept under their thumbs� and whom have not been allowed to move into to the fullness of their calling. Choose the path of humbling yourselves in the sight of the Lord.
His example of lowliness and the release of others into the harvest fields will be the only model that Father will bless in the days ahead.
Those who still have the aloof approach in sharing of honor and position will be eventually left on their own, having exhausted and exasperated those whom they were supposed to train and release.
ANOTHER GENERATION ALSO SHINES BRIGHTLY
Let the up and coming leaders in other generations shine in what they do! Don�t compete or try to be as �cool� as they are in their genre of expression. Let GO!
�Fathers, do not exasperate [harass � provoke � embitter � aggravate] your children that they may not lose heart and become discouraged.�
Colossians 3:21
He who always finds fault with a child; who is never satisfied with what he does; who scolds and frets and complains will eventually break his spirit, and soon destroys in the delicate texture of his soul all desire of doing well.
The child in despair soon gives over every effort to please. He becomes sullen, morose, stupid, and indifferent to all the motives that can be presented to him, and becomes to a great extent indifferent as to what he does � since all that he does meets with the same reception from the parent.
�Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.�
Deuteronomy 4:9
THE POWERLESS AGAINST THE MIGHTY
The Father in heaven has an exclusive responsibility towards His people and He cries out to them through the Holy Spirit that just as he moved on behalf of Asa and his men when surrounded by a vast army and 300 chariots, so will He move again on behalf of those who are obedient to His voice and commands.
He tells you at this time...
... To put HIM between yourself and the enemy.
When Asa realized his lack of strength� THEN he saw Jehovah God crush the Cushites. They were �Crushed before the Lord and their foes.� 2Chronicles 14:13
Then Asa called to the LORD his God and said, "LORD, there is no one besides You to help in the battle between the powerful and those who have no strength; so help us, O LORD our God, for we trust in You, and in Your name have come against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God; let not man prevail against You."
2 Chronicles 14:11
THE �BUGLE� TO BE �FRUGAL�
There will be several �invented� crisis settings in 2012 that will cause many to choose to hoard and stockpile for themselves. They will be quickly exposed as moneymaking schemes and a tool to inflate prices.
Oh the other side of this there will be those who have very little with which to live and eat due to job losses and cutbacks. Those around them, if not filled with the fruits of Grace and Mercy, will become indifferent to the cry of their needs, for there will be many.
�Share your food with the hungry, and give shelter to the homeless. Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help.�
Isaiah 58:7
The Lord would have me share that He is indeed watching to see if the heart of the Apostolic move of God can be again modeled as when the people brought what they had to trusted and integral teams of leaders, who then distributed with prayer and wisdom to all, and none had any lack.
We are at a time where the Body of Christ must share resources willingly and fairly and not justify personal strictures that apply to others, but not themselves.
Here is a scriptural measuring stick to use to observe the true Apostolic heart and Leader.
Psalm 112:9
They share freely and give generously to those in need.
Their good deeds will be remembered forever.
They will have influence and honor.
FINAL PROPHETIC WORDS
THE UK - IRELAND � FRANCE
GERMANY � CANADA
�Then I was told, You are to make a fresh prophecy
concerning many peoples and races and nations,
And languages and kings.� Revelation 10:11
The United Kingdom
There will be a ROAR of Prayer heard from desperate hearts in the UK. Prayer will be a way of life in many small Hamlets and Villages, and many homes will become chapels of healing and miracles.
The prostitution red light districts in Central London will have an epic move of God as He sends in intercessors in tandem with relevant and fiery Revivalists who will have such a strong presence of God with the Power of Holy Spirit bringing conviction, that even the hardest atheist observing it all will be made to run away in terror at the potent power of God falling upon the filth of prostitution.
Joel 2:25
And I will restore or replace for you the years that the locust has eaten--the hopping locust, the stripping locust, and the crawling locust, my great army, which I sent among you.
Houses of hope and care will spring up in smaller surrounding areas, where these whom have once been bound will be cared for and restored.
Galatians 6:1
BRETHREN, IF any person is overtaken in misconduct or sin of any sort, you who are spiritual [who are responsive to and controlled by the Spirit] should set him right and restore and reinstate him, without any sense of superiority and with all gentleness, keeping an attentive eye on yourself, lest you should be tempted also.
Ireland
There are many hidden and faithful leaders who have weathered political and spiritual storms for decades who are now well prepared and ready for the Father�s divine plan for their lives.
Ireland will begin to export teams of Apostolic and Prophetic missionaries into the USA and Europe. These people will have a razor sharp ability to cast out religious spirits hindering moves of God. They will bring with them the fresh songs of praise and worship now ready for the hungry ears of the true worshiper.
The �cynical� Irishman will now become the grand believer declaring � �With God all things are possible�!
There will be a spotlight on Ireland with new technologies being developed and mined there. With it, doors will open for many to travel to Ireland and find Father and Mother mentors ready to restore, train, and release.
France and Germany
The Father calls France, �A nation now in chaos�. But as an underground stream flows swiftly and quietly, so do those who have determined to pray and intercede with heart wrenching pleas for the Father to move within their land.
A spiritual passivity will begin to be addressed and shaken off of the hearts of fearful and hidden believers. There will begin to be a few strong and ethical governmental leaders rise up who will begin to risk addressing the rapidly encroaching militant attacks against the people of France and its outlying regions. There will be community vigils of prayer in local churches and the repenting of passiveness and elitist thinking.
German and French believers will begin to view one another in a Kingdom perspective and join in prayer and service to one another, creating a groundswell of food pantries with farmers and dairies that will create CO-OPs.
The key to breaking the spiritual stagnation in France will be the humbling of hearts before the Throne of God, and reaching out beyond its own borders.
Ephesians 2: 14
For He is [Himself] our peace (our bond of unity and harmony). He has made us both [Jew and Gentile] one [body], and has broken down (destroyed, abolished) the hostile dividing wall between us.
Germany
Germany will have a large revolt and uprising from among the youth as the economy continues to stress and bend. Looting and the stealing and selling of automobiles will become a raging epidemic.
"For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching [salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him)."
1 Corinthians 1:21
Simultaneously, young street evangelists who have been well trained as well as educated will be commissioned to reach out to those rioting and manifesting. Government leaders will not know what to do with the uproar, and sanctions against open religious expressions will be put in place.
Nevertheless, young Paul�s and Silas�s will not fear what man can do to them and will continue to flow in the power of Evangelism, seeing the hand of God spare the lives of many.
Jonah 3:2
Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach and cry out to it the preaching that I tell you.
CANADA
Canada will experience one of its most prosperous seasons ever known, for a short season.
The Lord would have Canada know that they must deal fairly with the wealth that they will produce and pay back the First Native families, and with Godly equity. If this is not addressed with wisdom and integrity, Canada will have to pass through the sorrows of disobedience.
Canadian Intercessors are being awakened and called up to stand in the place of prayer for its leaders and tribes. Now is not the time for silliness and laughter.
It is a sober day, with a command for sober prayers.
Accordingly then, let us not sleep, as the rest do, but let us keep wide awake (alert, watchful, cautious, and on our guard) and let us be sober (calm, collected, and circumspect).
1 Thessalonians 5:6
�Get up! Stand UP! Be Purposeful,� says the Lord. How do you not know that through your borders I can bring a North American "Wave of Justice and Restoration?�
1 Peter 1:13
So brace up your minds; be sober (circumspect, morally alert); set your hope wholly and unchangeably on the grace (divine favor) that is coming to you when Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is revealed.
In Closing,
I bless you, the reader of these prophetic insights, In the Name of Jesus.
May His word be a lamp to your feet and a light to your path.
2 Peter 1:21
�Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said, �No, don�t worship me. I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers and sisters who testify about their faith in Jesus. Worship only God. For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus. �
Revelation 19:10
No one prophetic voice hears all, and it is a wise person who will listen to what the Lord would say through many individuals who have words to share. There will be a thread or theme that flows out of the multitude of voices, and the Lord will prune away what may well be opinions, personal expressions and flamboyance, or even sensational one-upmanship or eerie predictions filled with dread, or � maybe even ambiguous supernatural potential events.
Having shared this, please-as one of God�s own children, always return to His plumb line of the scripture to bring wisdom and balance to any prophetic words you may hear.

Again, the Lord has graciously given time to those who still cling to entitlement and an attitude of �specialness," presuming they are more anointed, more brilliant and who have consistently attempted to be notable authorities, without having the personal lives behind the scene, that honor the heart and purposes of God.
It will be as if a box has been opened for all to see its hidden contents, or perhaps a drape drawn back to see what is hidden behind it. Plagiarism will be rampant in publications in both specular and spiritual genres. It will expose poor scholarship and rushed materials meant to entice hearts and to stroke the ego of the writer.
All of this the Father has warned over and over again within the heart of those now seared by greed and weak confidence in God�s plan and chosen times for promotions.
� Some became fools through their rebellious ways,
And suffered affliction because of their iniquities.�
Psalm 107:17
TURNING AWAY FROM PRESUMPTION
So often the Lord has had to deal with the issue of His people presuming that, �They know how� He-The Lord will or � �should� move in certain settings, only to be gravely disappointed and shocked when it appears as if the opposite happens.
To presume means to take for granted that something exists or is the case. It also means to make unjustified demands; take liberties.
Unless we as believers become solidly and firmly trained up in the study of the Scripture, not just the memorizing and quoting of it randomly, there will continue to be fractured teaching and many bizarre approaches to what is the plan of God for his people on planet earth.
�And He said to them, be careful what you are hearing. The measure [of thought and study] you give [to the truth you hear] will be the measure [of virtue and knowledge] that comes back to you--and more [besides] will be given to you who hear.�
Mark 4:24
�Study and be eager and do your utmost to present yourself to God approved [tested by trial], a workman who has no cause to be ashamed, correctly analyzing and accurately dividing [rightly handling and skillfully teaching] the Word of Truth.�
2 Timothy 2:15
POSTURING OR PARENTING?
As the Lord continues to build and establish the model of genuine �Apostolic Fathering and Mothering," in 2012 there will be a notable �fork in the road� for those called to this daunting assignment from Heaven.
The Father has asked me to lovingly but firmly warn those who are now in the possible place of having broader influences over another generation of developing young and tender leaders, to be very aware of where they stand.
A healthy and wise parent or mentor will train, model and provide safe boundaries for their children or students to grow and learn to step out into, knowing that they will experience difficulties and hardships, as well as many exciting growth spurts.
Those who need to have a following or remain as �cool and hip� as the young people they mentor will face a serious clash in the days ahead of them. Name dropping, self promoting of their spiritual acumen and harsh or condescending talking down to those in their care will result in being disqualified from moving into the next promise of Apostolic training and mentoring centers, which the Lord has been preparing for several decades.
You CAN teach an old Dog New Ways ...
....If you bring in the MASTER trainer.
....If you bring in the MASTER trainer.
Saying things like �This is the way that you are� or that you are �set in your ways� exposes willfulness and a need for control. So does boasting that you have worked hard and have �earned� your title and position.� Those who posture or continue to tout their �higher levels of knowledge and insight� will become a sour source of reference, and the King of heaven will not bless them with further influence.
They now have a choice to set things right with those whom they have �kept under their thumbs� and whom have not been allowed to move into to the fullness of their calling. Choose the path of humbling yourselves in the sight of the Lord.
His example of lowliness and the release of others into the harvest fields will be the only model that Father will bless in the days ahead.
I believe all human fatherhood should be patterned...
...After the Divine Fatherhood.
The Lord would have these whom are standing in this place of decision know that it does not matter that you have done mighty or impressive things in the past years. That is past and gone. You have received your rewards. Move now into a place where inclusiveness in Kingdom equality and honor are practiced openly and freely. ...After the Divine Fatherhood.
Those who still have the aloof approach in sharing of honor and position will be eventually left on their own, having exhausted and exasperated those whom they were supposed to train and release.
ANOTHER GENERATION ALSO SHINES BRIGHTLY
Let the up and coming leaders in other generations shine in what they do! Don�t compete or try to be as �cool� as they are in their genre of expression. Let GO!
�Fathers, do not exasperate [harass � provoke � embitter � aggravate] your children that they may not lose heart and become discouraged.�
Colossians 3:21
He who always finds fault with a child; who is never satisfied with what he does; who scolds and frets and complains will eventually break his spirit, and soon destroys in the delicate texture of his soul all desire of doing well.
The child in despair soon gives over every effort to please. He becomes sullen, morose, stupid, and indifferent to all the motives that can be presented to him, and becomes to a great extent indifferent as to what he does � since all that he does meets with the same reception from the parent.
�Only be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them.�
Deuteronomy 4:9
THE POWERLESS AGAINST THE MIGHTY
The Father in heaven has an exclusive responsibility towards His people and He cries out to them through the Holy Spirit that just as he moved on behalf of Asa and his men when surrounded by a vast army and 300 chariots, so will He move again on behalf of those who are obedient to His voice and commands.
He tells you at this time...
... To put HIM between yourself and the enemy.
When Asa realized his lack of strength� THEN he saw Jehovah God crush the Cushites. They were �Crushed before the Lord and their foes.� 2Chronicles 14:13
Then Asa called to the LORD his God and said, "LORD, there is no one besides You to help in the battle between the powerful and those who have no strength; so help us, O LORD our God, for we trust in You, and in Your name have come against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God; let not man prevail against You."
2 Chronicles 14:11
THE �BUGLE� TO BE �FRUGAL�
There will be several �invented� crisis settings in 2012 that will cause many to choose to hoard and stockpile for themselves. They will be quickly exposed as moneymaking schemes and a tool to inflate prices.
Oh the other side of this there will be those who have very little with which to live and eat due to job losses and cutbacks. Those around them, if not filled with the fruits of Grace and Mercy, will become indifferent to the cry of their needs, for there will be many.
�Share your food with the hungry, and give shelter to the homeless. Give clothes to those who need them, and do not hide from relatives who need your help.�
Isaiah 58:7
The Lord would have me share that He is indeed watching to see if the heart of the Apostolic move of God can be again modeled as when the people brought what they had to trusted and integral teams of leaders, who then distributed with prayer and wisdom to all, and none had any lack.
We are at a time where the Body of Christ must share resources willingly and fairly and not justify personal strictures that apply to others, but not themselves.
Here is a scriptural measuring stick to use to observe the true Apostolic heart and Leader.
Psalm 112:9
They share freely and give generously to those in need.
Their good deeds will be remembered forever.
They will have influence and honor.
FINAL PROPHETIC WORDS
THE UK - IRELAND � FRANCE
GERMANY � CANADA
�Then I was told, You are to make a fresh prophecy
concerning many peoples and races and nations,
And languages and kings.� Revelation 10:11
The United Kingdom
There will be a ROAR of Prayer heard from desperate hearts in the UK. Prayer will be a way of life in many small Hamlets and Villages, and many homes will become chapels of healing and miracles.
The prostitution red light districts in Central London will have an epic move of God as He sends in intercessors in tandem with relevant and fiery Revivalists who will have such a strong presence of God with the Power of Holy Spirit bringing conviction, that even the hardest atheist observing it all will be made to run away in terror at the potent power of God falling upon the filth of prostitution.
Joel 2:25
And I will restore or replace for you the years that the locust has eaten--the hopping locust, the stripping locust, and the crawling locust, my great army, which I sent among you.
Houses of hope and care will spring up in smaller surrounding areas, where these whom have once been bound will be cared for and restored.
Galatians 6:1
BRETHREN, IF any person is overtaken in misconduct or sin of any sort, you who are spiritual [who are responsive to and controlled by the Spirit] should set him right and restore and reinstate him, without any sense of superiority and with all gentleness, keeping an attentive eye on yourself, lest you should be tempted also.
Ireland
There are many hidden and faithful leaders who have weathered political and spiritual storms for decades who are now well prepared and ready for the Father�s divine plan for their lives.
Ireland will begin to export teams of Apostolic and Prophetic missionaries into the USA and Europe. These people will have a razor sharp ability to cast out religious spirits hindering moves of God. They will bring with them the fresh songs of praise and worship now ready for the hungry ears of the true worshiper.
The �cynical� Irishman will now become the grand believer declaring � �With God all things are possible�!
There will be a spotlight on Ireland with new technologies being developed and mined there. With it, doors will open for many to travel to Ireland and find Father and Mother mentors ready to restore, train, and release.
France and Germany
The Father calls France, �A nation now in chaos�. But as an underground stream flows swiftly and quietly, so do those who have determined to pray and intercede with heart wrenching pleas for the Father to move within their land.
A spiritual passivity will begin to be addressed and shaken off of the hearts of fearful and hidden believers. There will begin to be a few strong and ethical governmental leaders rise up who will begin to risk addressing the rapidly encroaching militant attacks against the people of France and its outlying regions. There will be community vigils of prayer in local churches and the repenting of passiveness and elitist thinking.
German and French believers will begin to view one another in a Kingdom perspective and join in prayer and service to one another, creating a groundswell of food pantries with farmers and dairies that will create CO-OPs.
The key to breaking the spiritual stagnation in France will be the humbling of hearts before the Throne of God, and reaching out beyond its own borders.
Ephesians 2: 14
For He is [Himself] our peace (our bond of unity and harmony). He has made us both [Jew and Gentile] one [body], and has broken down (destroyed, abolished) the hostile dividing wall between us.
Germany
Germany will have a large revolt and uprising from among the youth as the economy continues to stress and bend. Looting and the stealing and selling of automobiles will become a raging epidemic.
"For when the world with all its earthly wisdom failed to perceive and recognize and know God by means of its own philosophy, God in His wisdom was pleased through the foolishness of preaching [salvation, procured by Christ and to be had through Him], to save those who believed (who clung to and trusted in and relied on Him)."
1 Corinthians 1:21
Simultaneously, young street evangelists who have been well trained as well as educated will be commissioned to reach out to those rioting and manifesting. Government leaders will not know what to do with the uproar, and sanctions against open religious expressions will be put in place.
Nevertheless, young Paul�s and Silas�s will not fear what man can do to them and will continue to flow in the power of Evangelism, seeing the hand of God spare the lives of many.
Jonah 3:2
Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach and cry out to it the preaching that I tell you.
CANADA
Canada will experience one of its most prosperous seasons ever known, for a short season.
The Lord would have Canada know that they must deal fairly with the wealth that they will produce and pay back the First Native families, and with Godly equity. If this is not addressed with wisdom and integrity, Canada will have to pass through the sorrows of disobedience.
Canadian Intercessors are being awakened and called up to stand in the place of prayer for its leaders and tribes. Now is not the time for silliness and laughter.
It is a sober day, with a command for sober prayers.
Accordingly then, let us not sleep, as the rest do, but let us keep wide awake (alert, watchful, cautious, and on our guard) and let us be sober (calm, collected, and circumspect).
1 Thessalonians 5:6
�Get up! Stand UP! Be Purposeful,� says the Lord. How do you not know that through your borders I can bring a North American "Wave of Justice and Restoration?�
1 Peter 1:13
So brace up your minds; be sober (circumspect, morally alert); set your hope wholly and unchangeably on the grace (divine favor) that is coming to you when Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is revealed.
In Closing,
I bless you, the reader of these prophetic insights, In the Name of Jesus.
May His word be a lamp to your feet and a light to your path.
2 Peter 1:21
�Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said, �No, don�t worship me. I am a servant of God, just like you and your brothers and sisters who testify about their faith in Jesus. Worship only God. For the essence of prophecy is to give a clear witness for Jesus. �
