I Did Not Choose For You

    Many of My children have become stagnant in their circumstances. You feel trapped in wrong relationships, jobs that do not make you happy and towns you want to leave behind. But you are unsure how to handle the trap that has become your life.

   I came to set the captives free, but some of My children make themselves captive by their own wrong choices.

   You have created your own prisons, My children, and you wonder that you are trapped in it. Take a look at the walls holding you in…which choices led you there? Did you follow My leading or your own desires to reach that place? My blessings make your life rich with joy and do not bring sorrow.

   You have filled your life with people and places and things I did not choose for you. Come to Me if you want a better way.

Proverbs 10:22

• ²² The blessing of the Lord, it maketh rich, and he addeth no sorrow with it.

Proverbs 3:5-7

• ⁵ Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

• ¹⁴ But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

Acts 3:19

• ¹⁹ Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

Great Quiet

    This is the time to prepare for what lies just ahead. There will be a period of great quiet, then a decline will begin (I kept hearing ‘landslide’).

   You are well able to survive what is coming. Now is the time for deep reflection and time with Me that I may show you in your spirit what to do to be ready.  I will lead you, I will guide you. Only I know what you will need.

   In the same way you pack for a journey so you have what  you need, you will now prepare for the unusual journey just ahead.

Proverbs 3:5-7

• ⁵ Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
• ⁶ In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
• ⁷ Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

A Difficult Time

    A difficult time approaches your world, My people. Some changes are coming on the world stage you are not expecting that will make life for My people a struggle.

   In ways you cannot yet see, the world food supply shall begin to dwindle. A little at first, and then a lot. This will cause great difficulty for many who cannot afford a lot of food even now. Know that if you are truly Mine, if you walk in My ways, if you obey My commands and My leadings, I will supply all your needs. I will guide you to provision in secret places. I will make known to you how to survive this time. Do not fear.

   As these difficulties begin, do not tremble. Do not let the enemy make you afraid. Seek My face for this is the key to survival in every situation. Seek to know Me, to do My will. In all your ways acknowledge Me and I will lead you.

Proverbs 3:5-7

• ⁵ Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Jeremiah 29:12-13

• ¹² Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you.
• ¹³ And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.

Are You Willing?

   Many of My children say they follow Me. Many of you say you would lay anything down for Me. Then when I lead you to, you refuse. Why do you refuse to give Me what is Mine? Why do you hold back from Me?

   Are you truly willing to lay down all I require for My glory? Do you truly want to walk in My ways or (do you only want) only the benefits of My Name?

   Choose carefully,  My children, which path you will take. You can follow Me, or you can choose My enemy.  You choose  each hour, each day, who you will serve.

   Are you really willing to serve Me?

That Which is Still Lacking

    As you submit to My will and allow Me to, I will replace those things in your life that displease Me.

    I will put in place of criticism, a heart of My love. In place of lust, I will give you a passion for the things of Me. In place of complacency, I will give you a drive to pursue My Word.

   If you will give to Me your selfish heart, your lust and pride, if you will give to Me your desire for power and beauty and wealth, I will begin changing you into My image.

   I will help you, if you will only be willing – truly willing, I will perfect that which is still lacking in you.

Willing to Change

    To those of My children who truly strive to walk in My ways and to do all that pleases Me: Your efforts do not go unnoticed. There is a record here in Heaven of all you do.

   I see your struggle to make all areas of your life conform to My ways. My child, only I can perfect you. You do not carry that burden alone.

   If you will only be willing to be changed, if you will be willing to lay down that sin, if you will cry out to Me for help in laying it down, I will help you.

Romans 12:1-2

• ¹ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

• 17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

Every Place Except Me

    Why do My children seek every place except Me and My Word for their answers? Why do you seek in a fallen world for truth when truth does not abide there?

   Why are your thoughts continually on yourselves and never on what you can do for My Kingdom?

   Consider your ways My children for soon you shall give an account of your doings.

Proverbs 20:11

• ¹¹ Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.

• ¹⁷ Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow.

1 Chronicles 16:11

• ¹¹ Seek the Lord and his strength, seek his face continually.

2 Chronicles 7:14

• ¹⁴ If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Temptation and Regret

    My children, the enemy is attempting to draw you into certain actions which will later prove detrimental to you.

   The enemy is trying to lure you into actions to snare you into sins you cannot shake. He desires to tempt you into actions that will haunt you later because they cannot be undone.

   Use wisdom, My children, that you do not suffer regret.

• ²⁵ Let thine eyes look right on, and let thine eyelids look straight before thee.

Your Answer

    To you who have been laboring a long time feeling you have made no progress I say this, your breakthrough is just ahead.

   In My Holy Word is the key to your next level, the key to your breakthrough, but you must search for it and find it. Read what My Word says about your situation – search My Word and you will find the answer, and what you find will propel you to your breakthrough.

1. ²⁸ Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

• ¹⁹ Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.

Deeper Relationship

    Allow Me to guide you into a deeper relationship with Me. Allow Me to pull back the veil and reveal to you what needs to be seen.

   I have waited a long time for you to approach Me and ask for My help in showing you what needs to be changed. If you will remove these barriers between us, I will grant you those things you have asked me for. I will reveal to you those mysteries you have desired to know about Me.

   Follow My leading and I will guide you into a deeper walk with Me.

• ³ For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness.
• ⁴ None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
•  

Only Believe

   You have been struggling to keep your head above water for some time now, hoping to make it through. You have wondered if you would make it…or not. I tell you that you will. I tell you My strength and power are made perfect in your weakness and these times when you struggle are when you can most easily come into My presence.

   Draw near to Me now and receive all I have for you. Receive My help, receive My wisdom, receive My provision for all you need has already been ordained for you. You need only believe.

2 Corinthians 12:7-10

• ⁷ And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
• ⁸ For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
• ⁹ And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Distractions and Entertainment

    My children, so many souls walk every day in darkness. They have no knowledge of Me. They scoff at My warnings through My prophets.

   There is a day coming soon when many of them will be taken in their sin, never to know Me. Pray for these lost souls for it is My desire they would know Me. It is not My desire they would perish, but come to the knowledge of the truth and enjoy everlasting life.

   Your world is filled with many distractions and much entertainment. The enemy has set up many rivals for your time with Me. He has set many deceptions to lure away the unsuspecting and the unsaved. My heart grieves for the misery in their future. I desire My children would intercede for these lost souls and witness to those around you, so I may save them.

   Time is very short now, My children. Already the sorrows are upon you. Do not waste the time you have left to do good in the earth. Touch those you can.  Show kindness everywhere. Give to those around you. Let them see My great love in you, for this will draw them to Me.

   Watch and pray for My return.

Isaiah 42:16

• ¹⁶ And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them.

• ¹⁰ And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
•  

Inner Change

    My Children, I am taking you into a season of inner change. In this season, we will move from one big change item to the next. I will choose each one, and you will submit to the changes I request and then you can come up higher with Me.

   It is your choice to change these things that displease Me or not, but I have chosen now as the time to refine you. It is My desire that you submit to Me.

   I am preparing each of you for what lies ahead. Pay close attention to everything I am doing in your life, and you will learn.

Isaiah 43:18-19

• ¹⁸ Remember ye not the former things, neither consider the things of old.

Isaiah 48:10

• ¹⁰ Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.

Those Who Slander

   Those of you who slander your brothers and sisters and call yourselves by My Name…

   Now is the time of reaping what you have sown. I will return your slanders upon your own lives and you will know My Holy Word is true. Do you think you are exempt from reaping? Do you think My Word applies to others and not to you? Do you think I will stand by as you call yourself by My Name and do My enemy’s work against My own children? Nay, but there is a price to pay and I will exact it from you.

   You will begin to experience failure where you have not before. The strife you have sown will return in your own relationships. The negativity you have cast upon others’ names will return upon your name and all you desired to see upon those you despise will happen to you.

   Repent and confess your faults one to another. You have set your life on a course for destruction as you will now reap all the destruction you meant for others.

Leviticus 19:16

• ¹⁶ Thou shalt not go up and down as a talebearer among thy people: neither shalt thou stand against the blood of thy neighbour; I am the Lord.

The Time of Great Hunger

   Many of My children are concerned for their futures...what they will eat, where they will live, what they will wear, but I am guiding My children who can hear Me now...some to store up grain, some to build shelter, some to become skilled farmers and hunters.

   A time of great hunger comes in the future for all the world. Wild beasts will not roam the earth abundantly as they do now, for there will be no food for them and there will be a great dying off.

NOTE: I saw in the Spirit that something happens to the oceans as well where the fish in it cannot live as before. Something makes the water unlivable for them and they die. (Rev. 8:9)

   Precious little food shall abound and what is (available) will be controlled by the wicked. In this time, you must guard yourselves against turning away from Me (I saw He meant denouncing Him in return for food) in exchange for food for yourselves and your little ones. If you will instead focus on believing in Me more, I will supply you with food far superior to what you could get yourselves.

   When that time of great hunger comes, I will guide each of My children to where they should be and there will be no lack for those who truly believe Me and walk in My ways. Focus on Me, and I will guide you.

   Focus on Me.

Revelation 12:12

• ⁷ For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

• ²⁵ Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
• ²⁶ Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

Hosea 4:1-3

• 1 Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel: for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
• ² By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
• ³ Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.

Jeremiah 17:13

• ¹³ O Lord, the hope of Israel, all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall be written in the earth, because they have forsaken the Lord, the fountain of living waters.

Revelation 6:5-6

• ⁵ And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

Unafraid

   How is it you are unafraid to walk in your sins, knowing I am a holy God? How is it you are unafraid to give your body to idols knowing it displeases Me so? How is it you are unafraid to treat those who care for you so carelessly when you know I am always  watching you?

   How is it, when you are so near the end, that you can walk so unafraid of My mighty power?

   I have told you do not fear what man can do to you, but you should fear the power of the One who can cast your body into hell.

   Repent, and I will draw near to you. If you do not repent, you will face my judgment when your time comes to be called home.

Luke 12:18-22

• ¹⁸ And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
• ¹⁹ And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
• ²⁰ But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
• ²¹ So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
• ²² And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on.

Proverbs 15:3

• ³ The eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good.

• ²⁸ And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

James 4:8

• ⁸ Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

Look Again

   I see what lies before you. You are as grasshoppers in your own eyes against the problems and challenges that appear as giants in your life.

   I say to you, My child, ARISE for you are WELL ABLE to defeat the giants for I have gone before you and made the crooked places straight and I have filled your hands with weapons. I have given you power in your words to call those things that be not as though they were.

   There is nothing you can need that I have not already provided for you.

   Look again - do not let the appearance of giants overwhelm you for I am a mighty God and My strength is made perfect in weakness - your weakness.

   Your dependence on Me delights Me.

NOTE: In the spirit I saw a woman lay her head on a man's shoulder and he smiled with great happiness.

• 12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
• 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
• 14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
• 15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
• 16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
• 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
• 18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

I Will Move On Your Behalf

   My Children, now is the time I will move on your behalf. Now is the time of answered prayers, prayers you have prayed long for Me to answer. Sit back and watch Me work as only I can.

   I long to delight My children who obey Me and fear My Holy Name. I long to bless those who walk in My ways and I long to prosper those who so freely give to others and who give to My Kingdom work that the gospel may be preached in all the world in these last days.

   Believe for these things, My children, for I am a mighty God and well able to perform all you have asked of Me. And then some.
