Isa 60:21-22 AMP Your people also shall all be [uncompromisingly and consistently] righteous; they shall possess the land forever, the branch of My planting, the work of My hands, that I may be glorified. The least one shall become a thousand [a clan], and the small one a strong nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its [appointed] time.
Isa 31:6-7 AMP Return, O children of Israel, to Him against Whom you have so deeply plunged into revolt. 7 For in that day every man of you will cast away [in contempt and disgust] his idols of silver and his idols of gold, which your own hands have sinfully made for you.
Isa 30:32-33, Is 31:1 NKJV
32 And in every place where the staff of punishment passes, which the Lord lays on him, It will be with tambourines and harps; and in battles of brandishing He will fight with it. 33 For Tophet was established of old, Yes, for the king it is prepared.
He has made it deep and large; Its pyre is fire with much wood; The breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone, Kindles it. Isa 31:1 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, and rely on horses, Who trust in chariots because they are many, and in horsemen because they are very strong, But who do not look to the Holy One of Israel, Nor seek the Lord!
“I am sending more of My angels to stoke the fires, to turn up the heat - to accelerate the purifying fires that bring forth GOLD in My beloveds. You will find yourself in a place of purifying, and the emotions will be difficult to go through, but the end result will be increase in My glory. The mercury is rising, the temperature of My FIRE is being turned UP so that what comes forth will not cause any self destruction. So that YOU will walk in the Spirit , that you will be holy as I AM HOLY !
I AM in what seems like “attacks” from the enemy, but are actually ME, allowing you to go through a season of intense purification of your heart. For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
I want what comes FORTH FROM YOUR MOUTH TO BE HOLY ! I want you to reflect MY HEART, and My character. For the time is coming, burning like an oven, when all the chaff will be burned up.
Mal 4:1-2 NKJV - The Great Day of God
4 "For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, and all the proud, yes, all who do wickedly will be stubble. And the day which is coming shall burn them up, "Says the Lord of hosts, "That will leave them neither root nor branch. 2 But to you who fear My name The Sun of Righteousness shall arise with healing in His wings;
I am accelerating this work for the time is NOW. You have asked Me for MY HEART. You have said that you want union with ME. Well, then you must share in My suffering, and share in what is on MY heart. You must have eyes to see, and ears to hear all that is going on. So few REALLY want to know what is going on. Most people, are just concerned for themselves. I tell you that I am annihilating all SELFISHNESS and SELF CENTEREDNESS in your heart, that you would have MY HEART for the broken, MY HEART for the lonely, MY HEART for those on the outside looking in who need to KNOW MY LOVE.
How can you know MY LOVE, if you still cannot even forgive, if you still resent all your hurts and losses ? You need to practice THANKFULNESS instead of pride, and appreciation instead of RESENTMENT ! Some of you are still like those in the wilderness, complaining and complaining, and complaining about every little thing that goes wrong. You do not know endurance nor persistence ! But you will LEARN ! Some things have to be instilled in your heart, not just your mind. It takes longer for the heart to apprehend, all that it needs to learn when it has been so BROKEN.
Do NOT give in to condemning yourself. DO NOT give in to seeking relief without seeking ME. I AM THE FIRST AND THE LAST, the BEGINNING and the END. I AM your Resource for all that you need. So instead of complaining and spending time in negative resentment and frustration. KNOW that I DIED, that you would have all that you NEED. With these things you should be content, and not resent that you have been brought through some very difficult times.
The one who learns to appreciate rather than depreciate their past will arise in VICTORY ! The one who PROCLAIMS instead of COMPLAINS will find new resources in their holding. I am looking for PRAISE, even in the midst of adversity, the soul that can praise ME will soar to new heights of joy and peace, love and mercy with ME. YOU MUST LEARN TO OVERCOME. What does overcoming mean to you ? What does it mean to you to be an over-comer ? You must OVERCOME Satan’s lies and strongholds in your life.
Rev 12:11 AMP And they have overcome (conquered) him by means of the blood of the Lamb and by the utterance of their testimony, for they did not love and cling to life even when faced with death [holding their lives cheap till they had to die for their witnessing].
Some of you still don’t understand spiritual warfare. You think it’s all about rebuking demons and fighting principalities in prayer. But the KINGDOM comes not by hearing, but by MY PRESENCE. If you want the devil to flee, then you must CLING TO ME !
If you want demons to flee, then call on ME. Ask ME to come down, and watch what happens when you WORSHIP instead of complain and focus on the enemy.
Try focusing on ME. Try focusing on being in MY PRESENCE, on worshipping ME, then I WILL COME, for I inhabit the praises of My people, not the complaining of My people !
The devil knows this so he tries to WEAR YOU DOWN so that you will have no energy to seek ME, no time to seek ME, or the wrong heart for seeking ME. So I urge you beloveds to COME AWAY WITH ME. ENTER IN to the secret place with ME, and there you will find REST for your soul from all his torments. The secret is being QUIET with me. In quietness & rest you will be RESTORED ! It is NOT IN STRIVING. Just come to me beloveds. For MY BURDEN IS EASY, My yoke is LIGHT. Believe that I LOVE YOU and want you to know how much you are loved !”
Isa 30:15-16 NKJV For thus says the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel:
"In returning and rest you shall be saved; In quietness and confidence shall be your strength. "But you would not, 16 And you said, "No, for we will flee on horses" —
