I am truth and cannot lie. Yet you do not believe Me when I say to you, I have place your enemy under your feet. I have made you the head and given you all authority over the enemy. Whatsoever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven and whatsoever you loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven. Heed My words, believe what I say, and excercise the authority I have given you, and you shall prosper. Rise up, defeat, and conquer. Thus saith the Lord.

Luke 10:19
"I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you."

This day I stick closer to you than a brother. I touch your hair and drink in your smile. I feel your heartbeat and I wipe your tears. You are ever so close to Me right at this moment beloved if you can but acknowledge My presence. If you can but listen to My whispers of adoration. If you can but feel how My heart beats for you. You hold such fascination for Me beloved and have captured My heart from the moment I conceived you in My thoughts. I have loved you with an everlasting love which can be felt by you right at this moment. Stop. Listen. Touch and we will experience each other like never before...right at this moment. Thus saith the Lord.

Proverbs 18:24
"A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother."

I am mindful of everything that concerns you beloved. I watch over you continously to bless and to protect you. I encourage and I motivate. I look to the East, West, North and South as I guide you in the direction of your destiny. I walk with you, talk with you, reason with you and laugh with you as the days progress. I even cry with you when the pain comes as it most assuredly does beloved. In all things, I am there. In everything, I am everything to you. Fear not the trials and tribulations of the world. Tremble not at the attacks of the enemy. But rejoice in the knowledge of My love which is unfailing and restoring in every instance. Take heart for we are in this together and we shall come out together. All victory and assurance for everlasting joy and peace is yours Thus saith the Lord.

Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

Such is the time that you are living in beloved. For many are carried away by diverse lusts and improper conducts. The heart is once again impure and the mind is confused. But those who have set their hearts on Me shall have peace. For I am faithful and true and My grace is upon My faithful few in abundance in this hour when sin is rampant in the world. Do not be discouraged, neither turn back for I am with you and I strengthen and uphold you by the power of My Spirit alone in this hour. Only believe and you shall be carried along by the wave of My Spirit as He moves upon all the earth to accomplish that which I have set forth. Be at perfect peace and rest as you ride upon the storms with the One who sits on the floods. Thus saith the Lord.

Isaiah 26:3
"You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in you."

So you have prayed, and you have studied My word, and you have sought Me, but you feel no closer to Me than when you first began. Yes, you are witnessing My miracles and many around you are telling of their experiences and encounters with Me, but I seem yet so far away from you. Do not despair beloved. For I have seen your heart and I know of your sincerity and love. I am all around you and in you, drawing you ever so close beloved. For the experience you so long for and the knowing you so desire shall soon come upon you when you least expect it. I have prepared your heart and I have readied your mind for the close encounter that you are about to come into. Know that this will not be fleeting meeting, but an everlasting encounter that will be revealed in great power in your innermost being. Be excited and be ready for a deep revelation of Me saith the Lord. Thus saith the Lord.

Ephesians 1:17
"I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better."

Insatiable appetites speaks of lust beloved, not hunger. For the humble shall seek Me with a holy hunger and they shall be filled. But those who crave the things of Me seemingly with an insatiable desire, shall surely find their destruction in the things of Me. Discern the times and know truth in this hour that you may be filled to fullness with all the goodness of Lord, and that nothing shall be lacking either spiritually or physically in your life. Be content in Me. Walk with Me. Trust in Me. Hope in Me and all things shall be fulfilled in you according to My perfect plan for your life Thus saith the Lord.

Proverbs 13:25
"The righteous eat to their hearts' content, but the stomach of the wicked goes hungry."

Kick off discouragement. Shake off disappointment. Turn off despondency for these are born of depair and not of hope. But I say to you, that you have a hope and you have a future in Me, and the things that are trying to weigh you down and steal your hope shall not prevail. I have given you all power to overcome the wiles of the enemy and to rise up in victorious power in this hour. Come, shake the dust off your soul, and flex your muscles. Be prepared, alert, and ready as I lead you into a new battle wherein you will need all your strength and all your faith and all your hope saith the Lord. Laugh and sing. Dance and rejoice, for your victory is assured in Me saith the Lord. Thus saith the Lord.

Psalm 10:17
"You hear, O LORD, the desire of the afflicted; you encourage them, and you listen to their cry,"

Who shall say unto you where is your God? Who shall look upon your life and question the existence of the One in Whom you have believed. For the hour has come when all will perceive and all will know beyond a shadow of a doubt that your God lives. All will stand in amazement of the events in your life and sufferings that should have been yours, but by the power of the One you hope in, you are delivered out of all your troubles as if they had never been. Untouchable you have become beloved. For they shall scream and they shall curse. They shall fight and they shall attack, but untouched you will remain. Such is the abundant life I have promised. It is now upon you and yours. Rejoice saith the Lord and know that I am your God and your Lord and My hand is mighty in your defence in this hour. Thus saith the Lord.

Psalm 34:17
"The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles."

In a vision I saw a woman weeping as if she has lost her very soul. As I continued to watch, her sorrow overcame her and she fell to her knees in great gulping sobs. Then the Lord spoke.

For the cries of a nation can be heard throughout all the earth saith the Lord. The despair can be seen and the grief felt in great waves of self-absorbed pity. For a nation cries, but does not turn to Me saith the Lord. A nation grieves but does not look up. Is there someone who will plead for a nation? Is there someone who will repent for a nation? Is there someone who will stand in the gap? Come, now is the time. I stand at attention to listen to the voices of My people crying out to Me for a nation saith the Lord. I search for those who will stand in the gap. I am ready to answer. I desire to bless and not curse. I desire to forgive and not condemn. I desire a nation for My own. Thus saith the Lord.

2 Chronicles 7:14
"if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land."

You are coming into a new season of growth and maturity says the Lord. New situations will arise, new events, new trials. Be prepared saith the Lord to meet these head on. Do not shrink back from the challenges ahead, but with your head held high, and with confidence and boldness, face every challenge with wisdom, knowledge, understanding and action. Face every opposition of the enemy with an equal and opposite reaction. Know that by the power of My Spirit, the word of your testimony and My blood you shall overcome every challenge placed before you in this season. Thus saith the Lord.

Revelation 12:11
"They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony;"

I had an amazing vision of a pot of soup boiling and simmering. This soup had everything; different kinds of meat, vegetables, and flavors. As I watched I saw the Lord sitting beside the pot watching it boil, occasionally stirring it. Then He spoke...

Troubling times and heartbreaking sufferings are upon you.. I know saith the Lord. I watch carefully as My children in great numbers undergo great trials and pains. As in a pot of soup, you are all together in the pot of sanctification, boiling, simmering and tenderizing unto the perfection of obedience. Take heart beloveds, for when all is said and done, you will be perfected together, in unity, in tenderness of heart, in saltiness, aroma, and flavor. My hand is upon your lives and I am at work, wonderful work saith the Lord. Rejoice for I make all things perfect in you. Thus saith the Lord.

Romans 8:28
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

Immediate responses you have been asking for and immediate responses you shall receive in this season saith the Lord. Quickly, quickly I respond.. for I have heard your petitions and prayers from the foundations of the earth and have already prepared and provided My answers. Yet you waited and waited and now it seems I will no longer answer. But your waiting is over saith the Lord. Be of good cheer. For My answer has already been given from the foundations of the earth. It is your heart which needed the time saith the Lord. It is your heart which was being prepared to receive that which you have desired and prayed for. Now it is time to receive. For now is the time of completion for all seemingly unanswered prayers. Watch for it. It will tarry no longer. Receive it and be exceedingly glad. Thus saith the Lord.

Habakkuk 2:3
"For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay."

Can the mind carry My anointing? Can the will understand My grace? Can the emotions know truth? Only when they are surrendered to My Spirit saith the Lord. For the limits of the soul cannot sustain the things of the spirit, lest you allow My spirit to enlarge and endow saith the Lord. For the hour has come when many shall believe upon My name because of the greater works that you shall do...not by the power of your soul or body but by My Spirit working through your spirit saith the Lord. Look up! Draw nigh! Yield yourselves fully unto Me and allow My power to manifest to the full measure of your yieldedness saith the Lord. Great exploits you shall do in this hour saith the Lord. Rejoice and be glad! Thus saith the Lord.

Galatians 3:3
"Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort?"

Go North, go South, go East, and go West saith the Lord, and bring My children home. For this is your appointed season and this is the time of My harvest. A season of gathering saith the Lord. A time of reaping. Bring in the sheaves, and store them up in My storehouse. Work quickly. Work diligently for the season shall be soon past and then I come again. Thus saith the Lord.

"So they set out and went from village to village, preaching the gospel and healing people everywhere."
