Why do you cry when no one is looking and then act like everything is OK when you meet together with the saints? Don’t you know that this is the time and the hour to pour out before Me your sacrifice of praise, in the midst of your tears and sorrows, and know that you will be totally accepted by those who love you?

This is the time that I will pour out My grace and enable My people to truly be who I called them to be, but first they must be willing to humble themselves before Me and be cleansed, healed and made whole. Don’t act like everything is all right and struggle on your own. That is why I have the bride to meet together so that you all can be lifted up and strengthened and made whole.

Before you come before Me in warfare you must be strong. There can’t be any weak areas in your life where the enemy can come in and cause you to be ensnared. Cast all your cares upon Me for I truly care for you. I care if you are hurting that is why I have others who can hold you up and even weep with you if need be. Please don’t go off on your own and struggle needlessly.

This is the hour where I will pour My power out upon a strong people who have been made ready in My presence by humbling themselves before Me and reaching out to others. I love you, My people, and I want you to unite together. I want you to take off your masks of having it all together. Yes, it is important to stay in My word and to confess My truth and My promises, but you also must confess when you have a need that I am to fill for you. Do not hide who you are at this point. How are you going to make it to the end if you keep hidden the areas that you need healing in?

I want to prove to you My faithfulness in keeping My word. I want to make Myself real to you. I want to pour My glory out upon you and through you, but first you must show Me your face. You must trust Me by opening up to Me. You must trust My people to help you. You know who My true lambs are. They are the ones who will love you unconditionally and see you the way I see you; through My blood, through My love, and through My words spoken over you.

You are My beloved! You are My bride. You are My overcoming and conquering army. You are strong and you are faithful. Now rejoice and be glad.

Yolanda Ballard of At The Father’s Feet website shares with you, the body of Christ, the words she’s received quietly sitting at the Father’s feet. I believe Jesus set the example for us to follow. Whenever He could He would come apart from the busyness of the world so that He could quiet Himself before the Father, for that is where He received direction and strength to carry out His will.
