Industrial Waste Removal
Dec 14th
Priscilla Van Sutphin
Some time ago, when I had my car earlier this year, I was going down this side street and we had to wait for this huge garbage truck to back up, to get on to the freeway. As we were waiting the Lord was using this to show me that there was much waste, garbage in the lives of people in the church, and that it had to be diminished more before HE could allow certain of us to go on. It was like some had to wait till others caught up. In order for that waste to be totally removed the cars were waiting in a line, just waiting.
He brought this to mind just now after urging me to come to write what He speaks.
“ Beloveds there has been a deficit of waste removal in the church that has been backed up for some time. I AM doing some industrial waste removal right now, that will prepare hearts for what is coming. The church is heavy laden with garbage that’s never been removed. I have been waiting, and examining. I AM PATIENCE, and I have been waiting for others to line up, and just as I waited for Lot to reach his destination before incinerating Sodom and Gommorah, I have been waiting for some to catch up with what I’ve been doing in cleaning up lives, till the time was right, to bring My FIRE that will extinguish all the work of the evil one in many a soul. I AM the All Consuming FIRE and I am coming with a burning wind in the midst of ice and snow, and I will set aflame many, many hearts that will be used mightily to light fires all over the earth.
I have been so looking forward to this time beloveds. I have wanted UNION with My bride, and I will destroy every yoke of bondage, every bad habit, every stronghold of the evil one for all who desire freedom and to walk in holiness. Many have been unable to get free, and for some I have allowed this bondage to work HUMILITY in your hearts, that you would understand not to judge others. For some it has been to test the hearts of leadership and the church about My GRACE, and to test whether they were willing to make the sacrifice to be a servant to the least of these, My precious treasures. I have allowed affliction. I have allowed suffering and infirmities, to work perfect patience, in you, and the fruit of HUMILITY and perseverance.
Rom 5:3-6 AMP
3 Moreover [let us also be full of joy now!] let us exult and triumph in our troubles and rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that pressure and affliction and hardship produce patient and unswerving endurance.
4 And endurance (fortitude) develops maturity of character (approved faith and tried integrity). And character [of this sort] produces [the habit of] joyful and confident hope of eternal salvation.
5 Such hope never disappoints or deludes or shames us, for God's love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit Who has been given to us.
6 While we were yet in weakness [powerless to help ourselves], at the fitting time Christ died for (in behalf of) the ungodly.
The persecution and rejection have worked in you endurance, and fortitude. You may not see it. You may not FEEL it yet. But it is there. In the perfect time you will recognize that I have done a GOOD WORK in your heart, that has grown and matured you into who I want you to be. The COST of apostleship, prophetic and teaching responsibility is never easy. It is not an easy road I have called many to. It has been fraught with dangers, and humiliations, with pummeling rejection, and strife at times, and with dry and barren times after much brokenness. I KNOW IT HAS BEEN TRYING. I know it has been difficult, but the fruit in those who have joyfully endured it, now will bring forth GREATER FRUIT that will be useful in the hour to come as I pour out My Spirit on the earth to reap a HARVEST OF SOULS unlike anything anyone has seen before.
Much of what I have done, has been through much failure on your part. But that is how I make humble men and women. If you could do it without failing, trials and troubles, then what need would you have of ME. How would you help those who are going to go through the most evil time on earth ? Have you not known ? Have you not been told from the beginning ? Have you not understood that the LORD YOUR GOD is the CREATOR of heaven and earth, and there is NOTHING IMPOSSIBLE for HIM ?
I am a GOD of RESTORATION, not destruction. I wound, but I bind up. I afflict, but I heal. I know what it takes to forge molten steel. I know what it takes to make gold that will bend when I need it to.
Gold is shiny, but it scratches easier than silver. It bends easily when thin. I need malleable, bendable, flexible conduits of My power to do the will of the Father. I will now arise. I WILL NOW ARISE and I WILL execute My judgments through MY PROPHETS and APOSTLES. Most are not known to you. You thought the ones I’d use would be high profile, but I said the first would be last, and the last would be first.
I will use the discarded and the lame, those thought less of and even disdained to execute My judgments. Nothing will ever be the same as I step down into My church once again and make it what I want it to be.
Arise from any attitude of hopelessness and despair, for I am coming on the wings of the cold winds, and I will destroy every rampart of the enemy against you. Have FAITH in My ability to sustain and use you, more than the enemy’s to destroy you. For I SAID THAT YOU WOULD DO GREAT EXPLOITS IN MY NAME. You will do great and mighty things, you can’t even imagine when I get through with the last touches on My bride ! I’ve said, one can set a thousand to flight, two can set ten thousand to fight and so in exponentially ! The more you work together for the good of each other, and lay down your competitions and jealousies, you will find inexpressible JOY in My presence. It’s not about you. It’s about what I CAN DO and have done.”
Mic 4:6-13 AMP In that day, says the Lord, I will assemble the lame, and I will gather those who have been driven away and those whom I have afflicted.
7 And I will make the lame a remnant, and those who were cast off a strong nation; and the Lord shall reign over them in Mount Zion from this time forth and forever.
8 And you, O tower of the flock, the hill and stronghold of the Daughter of Zion, unto you the former dominion shall come, the kingdom of the Daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Now why do you cry aloud? Is there no king among you? Has your counselor perished, that pains have taken you like a woman in labor?
10 Writhe in pain and labor to bring forth, O Daughter of Zion, like a woman in childbirth; for now you shall go forth out of the city and you shall live in the open country. You shall go to Babylon; there you shall be rescued. There the Lord shall redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
11 Now many nations are assembled against you, saying, Let her be profaned and let our eyes gaze upon Zion.
12 But they know not the thoughts of the Lord, neither do they understand His plan, for He shall gather them as the sheaves to the threshing floor.
13 Arise and thresh, O Daughter of Zion! For I will make your horn iron and I will make your hoofs bronze; you shall beat in pieces many peoples, and I will devote their gain to the Lord and their treasure to the Lord of all the earth. [Zech 12:1-8; 14:14.]
Zechariah 12:1-9 AMP
1 THE BURDEN or oracle (the thing to be lifted up) of the word of the Lord concerning Israel: Thus says the Lord, Who stretches out the heavens and lays the foundation of the earth and forms the spirit of man within him:
2 Behold, I am about to make Jerusalem a cup or bowl of reeling to all the peoples round about, and in the siege against Jerusalem will there also be a siege against and upon Judah.
3 And in that day I will make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all peoples; all who lift it or burden themselves with it shall be sorely wounded. And all the nations of the earth shall come and gather together against it.
4 In that day, says the Lord, I will smite every horse [of the armies that contend against Jerusalem] with terror and panic and his rider with madness; and I will open My eyes and regard with favor the house of Judah and will smite every horse of the opposing nations with blindness.
5 And the chiefs of Judah shall say in their hearts, The inhabitants of Jerusalem are our strength in the Lord of hosts, their God
6 In that day will I make the chiefs of Judah like a big, blazing pot among [sticks of] wood and like a flaming torch among sheaves [of grain], and they shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and they of Jerusalem shall yet again dwell and sit securely in their own place, in Jerusalem.
7 And the Lord shall save and give victory to the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem may not be magnified and exalted above Judah. 8 In that day will the Lord guard and defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and he who is [spiritually] feeble and stumbles among them in that day [of persecution] shall become [strong and noble] like David; and the house of David [shall maintain its supremacy] like God, like the Angel of the Lord Who is before them. 9 And it shall be in that day that I will make it My aim to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.
Zech 13:1-2 AMP
1 IN THAT day there shall be a fountain opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem [to cleanse them from] sin and uncleanness. 2 And in that day, says the Lord of hosts, I will cut off the names of the idols from the land, and they shall no more be remembered; and also I will remove from the land the [false] prophets and the unclean spirit.
