Do Not Give Up!

Do Not Give Up!
through Patricia Hamel
May 6, 2015

 
The Lord is saying to His children do not give up!  Help is on the way.  Many of you have prayed and labored and not seen answers to prayer.  You have been so discouraged and ready to give up.

The Lord is saying to you do not give up but continue to press in seek His wisdom and pray.  Your miracle is just around the corner.  You will have to take it by force from the enemy and pray to open his fist but it is yours and you must stand and defeat Him.

The battle is the Lords so as you pray and seek His face calling on Jesus the author and finisher of your faith you shall see the victory.  Even that which has been stolen from you will be returned in God's timing.  Continue to praise me this day and I will fight for you, says the Lord.

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.  Eph. 6:16

"2015"
"WALKING WITHOUT THE SHACKLES OF THE PAST" 
PROPHETIC INSIGHTS AND WORDS
FOR THOSE THAT HAVE EARS TO HEAR

 

By The Holy Spirit
Through Mary Lindow


ARE YOU LONGING FOR,
Purity in spiritual things from the throne of Grace?

ARE YOU IN A PLACE WHERE,
You will risk laying down what might cost you your past history and which will create a new and fresh beginning in the walk of the saint on earth?

ARE YOU ASKING THE QUESTION,

"Why is it that the Lord in this seems to be taking longer to fulfill His Promises of so many heart’s desires of those now crying out?"

THE FATHER IS LOOKING ACROSS THE LAND
Looking for those who are not creating agendas and programs to attempt to have an "edge" during this long season of transitioning.

He is allowing the breaking and "coming to the end of ones self" to continue.

Few have stepped over the line into the abandonment He desires from those who claim that their lives are for His use.
The Lord is not requiring acts of greatness and weighty gatherings to bring glory to His plans.


THE LORD SAYS THESE WORDS TO THOSE WHO DESIRE TO HEAR:


"The sacrifice I want is a broken spirit. A broken and repentant heart,  This my bride, I will not despise.
(Psalm 51:17)



“IT IS NOT ABOUT THE END RESULT…
It is about the obedience to do the simple, at times mundane acts of silencing your fleshly need for action and comfort."

"Are you pressed in on every side child? Are you seeing that no one will hear your cry for love, support, comfort and kindness?”

Their insults have broken my heart, and I am in despair.
If only one person would show some pity;
If only one would turn and comfort me."
(Psalm 69:20)


“Realize that only I, God, can be the full and well-trusted Redeemer and Rescuer in your situation right now!”
“I your Lord am testing each heart that calls me Master and I am allowing a Divine dissatisfaction and holy irritation to stir up all hearts until they begin to wail out loud;


"Father! Why am I not filled with the peace and delight I need?
Why are you not hearing and answering me?"


"My reply to you child is quite plain:

I have said these words and have spoken them to you each in the way I know you will hear me."  Sometimes I am silent until you become silent enough for ME to speak into your situation.”

Have you repented of shutting out my voice when I have commanded you to give from the treasures you now possess?
It could be tangible worldly goods you could give to share as a release for another to be filled with awe at the goodness of my hand of blessing.

It could be that you know of those now suffering for having stood for truth and having paid an enormous earthly price that need your heart to be a good Samaritan, one who will assist and bring rest and healing and support until they find their way again.

It could be that you don’t not want to be gracious to those in your own household unless they do your will.
But is it MY will for them or your control of them?”


IS THE LORD SHOWING YOU YOUR TENDENCY TO BE TIGHT WITH GENEROUS "HEART RELEASING" GIVING

Not just in “monetary” love gifts.

No!

In your times of patient listening to those in anguish.
In your time of prayer, in your sharing of simple treasures from fresh garden flowers, produce, extra clothing. Generous living and giving of all we have surplus of!

And…often, in the form of a sacrificial offering to the Lord as an indicator that “things” or possessiveness do not own us!


BELIEVERS SHARE THEIR POSSESSIONS

“All the believers were one in heart and mind.
No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own,
But they shared everything they had.”
Acts 4:32



THE LORD IS BREAKING YOU AND I!

If you wonder why there is such a limited level of joy and rest in your heart, it is because until you must have a heart that is broken, and repentant for assuming you are allowed to call the shots in your decision making for yourself and for others in this life. Until this is admitted and addressed, the Lord will not expose you to His full measure of glory!


THE BIG ADJUSTMENT COMING
FOR MANY IN “2015”

Beware of ARROGANT PRIDE!
The root of pride is a subconscious attempt to meet a deep emotional need that we have for significance. If we are not careful, pride will rob us of the mechanism that allows God to impart his wisdom to us.

We may even begin praying for God to give us what we think we rightfully deserve. The motive of a proud person's prayer is to get their will done, not God’s will. In prayer they ask God for their requests, which are usually all about them. If you’ve ever been guilty of doing this, how often were those prayers answered?

God's judgment is against the proud who oppress others to get what they want. The proud are planning their lives without God. They boast about their plans for the future.  They fail to realize it’s not God's reverence and respect for their self-perceived incredible awesomeness that awaits them in the future, its God’s judgment.

Pride is self serving, never a blessing to others.

Arrogant pride binds your heart and blinds your eyes to the God’s will. Arrogant pride is of the devil and it never leads to righteousness.

The humble person seeks God's wisdom as he or she listens to God's word and seeks to do it.
Guard yourself against pride. In your life, in your own heart and in judging the attitudes of others around you. Pride is insidious, blinding all who fall into its snare. Pride closes off the flow of God’s power.

The Characteristics of Pride:

•      The proud person only considers their own selfish interests; and is usually more than willing to fight to death for those interests.

•      The proud are only concerned about their plans with very little, if any consideration for God or other people.

•      A proud person's life dwells on what they have done, what they are doing and what great plans they have for their future.

       They live with blinders on.

•      Pride leads us to arguing, strife, fighting, wars and ultimately destroys us.

•      The proud person sits in judgment on others. He or she doesn't hesitate to tear others down to build themselves self up.



The Characteristics of Humility:


God says when you are humble, you are free from pride and arrogance.

The meaning of humility and meekness in the Bible is one of loving others and being in a position of power, not being a wimp!

•      You can defuse personal arguments when you are humble.
•      You are able to be a peacemaker by mediating arguments of others.
•      Godly humility is being comfortable with who you are in the Lord and therefore putting others first in all ways.
•      You don’t need to stand up for yourself in an angry manner. And you do not have to win every argument.

•      You are able to walk humbly in the power of God’s Holy Spirit instead of your own limited personal power.

“A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger.”
Proverbs 15:1



WHEN WE OBEY AND HUMBLE OURSELVES…
…HE WILL RETURN WITH HIS FRESH AND SWEET ANOINTED PRESENCE!
 "Oh, give me back my joy again! 
You have broken me-- now let me rejoice."
~Psalm 51:8


MANY WHO ARE NOW UNSEEN, and yes, beat down, tested, ridiculed, shamed, used, and seemingly forgotten, will shortly and soon pass through the open door of new beginnings and the start of a vast Kingdom advance.

Those who choose to hear the Lord's voice telling them to assist and nurture and support those who have been in the fiery furnaces of preparation, will be filled with the joy of knowing that they too, have passed the test of brokenness and repentance.

Those of you who are in the stages of rising from the concealed place where you have been struggling to grow in wisdom, understanding, and dying to self-love, it may seem as if you cannot find the foot holds you were once accustomed to.
Don’t be fearful. The Lord has placed you in a fresh place of total dependency upon His Voice, His Direction, and His Purpose.


WALKING WITHOUT THE SHACKLES OF THE PAST…
…will feel awkward and at times weightless.
Your time in the place of “soulical death” has freed you from the things that weighed you down in past years.


GOD TRAINS HIS SONS AND DAUGHTERS

Since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses,
Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles,

And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. -Hebrews 12:1



INCREASE IN ENCOURAGEMENT!
What does it cost you to share encouraging words and a time of prayer with one who is momentarily suffering weakness, heartache, or despair? It costs you time.

But when you do this, it increases a bond of unity among the Family of God whom you and I are saved into through Jesus, who was the ultimate encourager!

"May the God who gives endurance and encouragement
Give you a spirit of unity among yourselves,
As you follow Christ Jesus." -Romans 15:5



 GOD’S WORD FOR US IN 2015 
IS CONDENSED INTO THESE TWO COMMANDMENTS FROM JESUS CHRIST:

1) Love God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength,

and

2) Love your neighbor as yourself.


God gave us the gift of the Holy Spirit with all nine manifestations as the specialized tools we need in order to carry out His will for us as faithful workmen of God’s Word.  In so doing, we gain the fruit of the spirit as our earthly reward. Our heavenly reward is even greater but yet unseen.

Pride causes us to lose sight of those tools.
Pride takes all the power away. The insidious part of pride is that it blinds us to seeing that instead of gaining, we are actually losing.

Humility is the key to the tool box.

The act of being humble to God and toward others opens that box and empowers us to use those tools for amazing, miraculous acts of righteousness and blessings.
God's power for living life well is given to those who humble themselves in his sight.


HOLD ONTO HOPE AND FAITH!
"Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the LORD." -Psalm 31: 24

"And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." -Romans 5:5
 


THE LORD OF PROMISE AND COMPASSION
 IS COMING NEAR TO YOU
TO SAVE YOU FROM SNARES AND TRAPS IN 2015!


"WHEN HE COMES AND WE BOW LOW  IN REPENTANCE AND HUMILITY…

 …HE WILL COME RUSHING TOWARDS US WITH HEALING IN HIS WINGS!"

 

"He heals the brokenhearted,  Binding up their wounds." - Psalm 147:3

Again I say to you: Wear It Anyway!

Again I say to you: Wear It Anyway!

19 March 2015 by Jo Ellen Stevens



I hear the Lord saying,

“it is time to wear your many colored coats as Joseph did. And though His brothers were jealous of His call and anointing.. I say to you again, “wear it anyway!” Only this time you will have on the Kings ring and His signet. Wear it anyway, for the robe and the ring are yours to rule and to reign in this hour!

Wear it anyway, and though they try to slay you, trust Me! For I will cause those that did you harm in the last season, to come and fall at your feet in this season. For they will see that the dream that they hated you for in the last season, has become the very source of their survival in this one!

Many Will Be Positioned For Such A Time As this!

I am about to position many of you in Kings palaces and before great leaders! It is time to dress as sons and daughters of The Most High God! Yes dress in My glory! Shine with My glory! It is time to be radiant in the kingdom of your Father! It is a new day! It is a new hour! Arise and flash forth the very light of My kingdom!

I have brought you through many trials and tests for such a time as this so that you would be able to be in position to bring those that I have called you to into the kingdom and under the covering away from the storms that are arising upon the earth! Yes Arise and Shine My Sons and Daughters for you will be a part of the great harvest that is all around you!”

“Joseph told them to come closer to him, and when they did, he said:
Yes, I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt. Don’t worry or blame yourselves for what you did. God is the one who sent me ahead of you to save lives.
There has already been a famine for two years, and for five more years no one will plow fields or harvest grain. But God sent me on ahead of you to keep your families alive and to save you in this wonderful way. After all, you weren’t really the ones who sent me here — it was God. He made me the highest official in the king’s court and placed me over all Egypt.
Now hurry back and tell my father that his son Joseph says, “God has made me ruler of Egypt. Come here as quickly as you can. You will live near me in the region of Goshen with your children and grandchildren, as well as with your sheep, goats, cattle, and everything else you own. I will take care of you there during the next five years of famine. But if you don’t come, you and your family and your animals will starve to death.”
All of you, including my brother Benjamin, can tell by what I have said that I really am Joseph. Tell my father about my great power here in Egypt and about everything you have seen. Hurry and bring him here”    Genesis 45:4-13 (CEV).

Legendary Season by Marsha Burns Identifying the Season (2015)

LEGENDARY SEASON
by Marsha Burns
Identifying the Season (2015)

On a recent road trip two words came to me: legendary and epic.
Those two words came just before arriving at our destination where I saw a sign that read, "Legends of the West."

So, the season we have just entered will be epic, legendary, and marked as supernatural.
Upheaval in the Nations:

In a vision I saw utter, heart-breaking devastation in cities and towns in the Middle East. And, I asked the Lord, "When will this end?" He answered, "It will end when everything that is destined to be destroyed is destroyed." And, I heard Him say that it would end when the indignation is past.

Then, I was reminded of Psalm 137:1-4 "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept when we remembered Zion. We hung our harps upon the willows in the midst of it. For there those who carried us away captive asked of us a song, and those who plundered us requested mirth, saying, "Sing us one of the songs of Zion!" How shall we sing the LORD'S song in a foreign land?"

Isaiah 26:20 Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, until the indignation is past.

Jeremiah 15:2-3 "And it shall be, if they say to you, 'Where should we go?' then you shall tell them, 'Thus says the LORD: "Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine; and such as are for the captivity, to the captivity. And I will appoint over them four forms of destruction," says the LORD: "the sword to slay, the dogs to drag, the birds of the heavens and the beasts of the earth to devour and destroy."

Then, I asked, "What will follow this destruction?" He said, "An awakening beyond the scope of anything that has ever been seen."

I am reminded of the very first time that I entered the presence of the Lord. I had heard someone mention the end of the world in the days prior to my encounter with Him, and I was troubled by that concept. So, I asked, "Is the world coming to and end?" He said that the world as we know it would come to an end. I asked if there would be a World War III. Again, the answer was affirmative. Then, I asked my final question-where would the war begin, and He answered that it would begin in the Middle East.

In the history that is being written in these times this could very well be the beginning of the end.

Matthew 24:
3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?"
4 And Jesus answered and said to them: "Take heed that no one deceives you.
5 "For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive many.
6 "And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 "For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.
8 "All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 "Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name's sake.
10 "And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another.
11 "Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.
12 "And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
13 "But he who endures to the end shall be saved.


Instruction for the season:
1 Thessalonians 5:
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.
7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk are drunk at night.
8 But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.
9 For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
10 who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

This season will present opportunities to interact with History supernaturally. It's going to be big-the stuff that legends are made of. But, we individually must stay focused and not be distracted with temporary and trivial pursuits.


Small Straws:
I am doing a supernatural work in you, My people. If you will get up to the highest point of your own desire and ability to seek My face, I will take you higher spiritually and give you greater freedom of movement. You will see and discern with unprecedented clarity and become one with Me in purpose--moving with power and precision, says the Lord.

Keep yourself in righteousness and honor. I have provided for you sanctification and have set you apart for Myself, says the Lord. Protect your commitment. Be established in My kingdom through dedication to My purposes. Refuse to allow the enemy to steal your peace or undermine your spiritual position. Set a watch for his shenanigans.

Stand strong in the face of adversity, for I say to you that challenges will come as devastation seems to rule the world. It is up to each of you, My people, to establish righteousness and kingdom principles where you are--in your life and circumstances. You will do this through choosing good over evil, says the Lord. Set yourself apart to reflect My character and nature.

Consider where you have been, where you are now and where you are headed. If your life seems to be on a path that has departed from spiritual commitment and consecration, you will need to make a course correction before it leads to destruction. Let Me direct you in the way of righteousness and peace so that I can bless you, says the Lord.

The next phase of your spiritual progression is beginning to unfold. Position yourself for the greatest benefit of the season by getting your priorities in order and developing righteous values. Move away from self-absorption to consider and esteem one another. Be honest and righteous in every area of life--relationships, finances, goals and desires. I am the light that will guide you through the darkness that covers the earth, says the Lord.

Don't expect justice, but we never cease to give it.
