A Word of Exhortation for the Coming Year 2014

I am pouring out My gifts without repentance, and all of My children have the opportunity this coming year to claim as their own all that I have to offer. I have seen your hearts that you are hungry for My truth, and I am pouring it out this day upon many who have called out to Me for it.

Yes, this is the day of the latter rain outpouring, but at the same time the enemy is going about like a lion seeking who he can devour. Keep checking your armor each day to see if each piece is intact, that everything is working together with My perfect will for your life. If there is any piece that isn’t properly applied; yes, if there is any area of your life that I am not Lord over, the enemy will have an opening in which he can enter.

So I tell you if you want to be used in a mighty way in My army in these end days, you need to make sure you are walking in truth and not deception. You need to make sure that you are walking in My will and not your own. You need to make sure you aren’t justifying an area of willful sin without repentance. You need to make sure you stay under the power of My blood and are walking in the power of My word.

If you do not keep checking each area, you can be left behind as the army moves forward, and you will become an open target for the enemy. These are the times when many will fall behind because what they allowed to hinder them was not important to Me but was to them. They have allowed what is a priority to them to override what I call first priority. Remain faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life. If you cannot run with the footmen, what will you do when the horses are loosed against you?

Seek Me for wisdom as how you are to walk out the knowledge I will give you in the coming days. Wait upon Me until I give you the sign to go forward for My perfect timing is of great importance. Make a heart commitment to follow what I show you no matter what you come against. The coming days will be very trying but at the same time you will grow very strong. Trust Me no matter what you feel or see and believe that I am in control over all things that you face. Believe that as you continue to press in that surely you will receive the Promises that I made to you before. For yes, you will enter into the Promised Land.

Today there are giants all around but if you stand still, you will see My salvation. I will set you free to do great exploits. Signs, wonders, and miracles will follow those who believe, and My love will be your greatest weapon against the enemy. Remember these things, and walk in them, and you will have My victory manifest through you.

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.
