Ruling in the Midst
of Adversity
Thru Priscilla Van Sutphin

“I have called you to a unique hour in the
history of man. I have called you to a time
of turmoil and confusion, to rule in the midst
of this with My shalom. I am not a man that
I should lie, nor a son of man, that I should
change My mind. My Kingdom shall never end. You will be willing in the day of My power as volunteers to do My will and establish My Kingdom in the midst of all that is going on in the earth. I have prepared you for such a time as this.
Many antichrists have arisen in the earth, to subdue My own. But I WILL arise with healing in My wings, and I WILL establish My Kingdom in the earth despite the enemy trying to establish His. For his will crumble, but My rulership is forever! You are a part of establishing My Kingdom through reaching your arms out to others, through teaching others, for without a preacher, how will they know? Man has lied and lied to the generations and taught them the wisdom of man.
You must arise as I ARISE in the earth and proclaim MY GOODNESS in the land of the living. You are My arms and legs,& voice in the earth. You will establish a thing by speaking and declaring My WORD, as I give you prophetic utterance and prophetic prayers and declarations. Nothing will be withheld from those who love me, and who are willing to lay down their agenda for Mine. I will bring down the kingdom of Satan. I WILL establish My order in the midst of chaos and disorder.
Come to Me, and let me fill you with My SHALOM, for you will be able then to rule in the midst of your enemies without being defensive, but knowing that I love you and am beside you all the way. I’ve promised to NEVER leave you nor forsake you beloveds. Come to ME, and I will show you great and marvelous things you do not know. [Jer 33:3] I AM the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will rule in the midst of MY ENEMIES, therefore YOU also have this privilege. In order to see things through My eyes, you need to spend time with ME, getting My perspective. Ask ME and I will show you what your heart longs to know.
I WILL release you from all anxieties and fears within, that you can be part of establishing My rule if you only ask Me to. I am looking for willing hearts is all. You don’t have to be trained in school to become used by Me for Kingdom purposes. You just have to be willing and obedient to My leading. If you learn to LEAN ON ME, and not your own opinions, then life will go much easier beloveds. Lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways, acknowledge me and I will make your path straight.
Do NOTHING out of selfish ambition to be something in this hour, for it will work to the opposite. Lay aside all jealousies, all competition, for I will not honor you if you lack honor for one another. Where there is insecurity, if you will confess it, and ask Me to remove it, I will. So many have no idea of how much I love them. I am LOVE, but I also am JUST. I will honor those who honor ME. I will give grace to those who are willing to give grace to others. For as you sow in tears, you will reap in JOY. Selah!
You are a peculiar generation that knows so much, and has so many advantages compared to past generations, yet there is so much lack of truth in My church due to lack of healing and deliverance in many places, and these untruths, and lies now being taught in apostasy, have spread throughout the earth, thanks to the works of the antichrist spirit. BUT I HAVE PROMISED to ARISE with healing in My wings, so know that MY PROMISES to you will not be aborted. I AM coming to break every chain the enemy has used to bind people to his ways. Pray for the loosing of MY KINGDOM in the earth, for MY GLORY will cover the earth, as the water covers the seas.
Isaiah 25: 4 For You have been a strength to the poor, A strength to the needy in his distress, A refuge from the storm, A shade from the heat; For the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall. 5 You will reduce the noise of aliens, As heat in a dry place; As heat in the shadow of a cloud, The song of the terrible ones will be diminished. 6 And in this mountain the Lord of hosts will make for all people A feast of choice pieces, A feast of wines on the lees, Of fat things full of marrow, Of well-refined wines on the lees. 7 And He will destroy on this mountain the surface of the covering cast over all people, and the veil that is spread over all nations. 8 He will swallow up death forever, And the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces; The rebuke of His people He will take away from all the earth; For the Lord has spoken.
“The silver and the gold are MINE says the LORD, and in this place I WILL BRING PEACE! Disruption and chaos will be the order of the day in the world, but your world, in My Kingdom, does not have to move according to the system of this world. You can have peace in Me. Absolute confidence in MY love for you will bring great peace. So the tsunami will be loosed shortly, and My love will overtake My beloveds. My Kingdom is coming to earth, and I will have MY way in My church that is called by My name. The enemy will be enraged, but I have overcome the enemy, and YOU also will overcome by the word of your testimony, and My blood !!!”

42 And as the toes of the feet were partly of iron and partly of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong and partly fragile. 43 As you saw iron mixed with ceramic clay, they will mingle with the seed of men; but they will not adhere to one another, just as iron does not mix with clay. 44 And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever.
