Walk through the wall of fear and see what is on the other side!! Waves of my glory await you there! Empowerment to do miracles are coming upon you there! Great explosions of my Spirit and anointing are there for you!! Rise up oh sons of the mighty!!”
Be Sensitive to the Wind of My Spirit
When Holy Spirit is hovering over someone they know it.. This is the time when our words must be timely and we must be sensitive to Him. Speaking as the Spirit gives us the utterance will bring the Supernatural change into the natural realm!! If you listen to God you will know when this is happening.. This will turn a mess into a message!! Be very sensitive to His brooding right now .. There are souls in the balance. Someone needs to understand that Holy Spirit has a timing in their loved ones salvation and all of the nagging and telling them what a sinner they are will never change that person.. Only the Holy Spirit knows how and when the right timing is..
“In the beginning God (prepared, formed, fashioned, and) created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and an empty waste, and darkness was upon the face of the very great deep. The Spirit of God was moving (hovering, brooding) over the face of the waters. And God said, Let there be light; and there was light. And God saw that the light was good (suitable, pleasant) and He approved it; and God separated the light from the darkness” Genesis 1: 1-4 (AMP).
“Don’t be surprised that I said to you, ‘You must be born anew.’ God’s Spirit blows wherever it wishes. You hear its sound, but you don’t know where it comes from or where it is going. It’s the same with everyone who is born of the Spirit.” John 3:7-8 (Common English Bible).
You Will be a Display of My Splendor!
I dreamed of Daniel in the Lion’s Den last night and the Lord spoke and said that many of us have been being prepared for our “Lion’s Den” experience and all that you have been through has brought you to this place! All of the preparation in prayer and fasting, faith, and humility has brought you to this place. For others He is saying begin to prepare as Daniel did Praying and seeking His face for this is the time when I will put my people’s faith on display and they will shine with my Glory!
“People will be thrust into situations that will bring forth my glory in high places. In their work places and in their families. It will be the “Faith Feat” of their lives but it will also be the thing that will open up the door to their destiny to keep people alive and bring them to me in this time that is to come!! Prepare through prayer,worship,word, and staying in the secret place… I will begin to download strategies to you as you stay in my presence!! Build yourself up by praying in the Spirit, for this is the day of my saints and they shall do great exploits for they do know their God!! Hallelujah!!!”
“Now at the same time my reason and understanding returned to me; and for the glory of my kingdom, my majesty and splendor returned to me, and my counselors and my lords sought me out; I was reestablished in my kingdom, and still more greatness [than before] was added to me” Daniel 4:36 (AMP).
“I will accept you [graciously] as a pleasant odor when I lead you out from the peoples and gather you out of the countries in which you have been scattered, and I will manifest My holiness among you in the sight of the nations [who will seek Me because of My power displayed in you]” Ezekiel 20:41 (AMP).
Instructions from the Apostle Paul
Just some instructions from the Apostle Paul that will make you be aglow with the Spirit of God today!
One thing that I was told by the Lord about these scriptures is that we shouldn’t think more highly of ourselves than we ought to. Then it goes on to say do your part and this is what makes us shine! Trying to do others part will only make your light dimmer! Why? because it will wear you out so that you do not function in the fullness of your own calling! It is time to focus on ours and ours only! Anything else is just jealousy and Paul said that if you have jealousy and envy among you you can not receive deeper revelation..
Get this .. the manufacturer made you for a purpose and only he has the instructions for how you will operate. If you spend your life being jealous of another part of the body you will just not function right! You will spend your life pursuing something that you were never suppose to pursue. Let us focus on OUR OWN CALLING!! Glory to God and each one of you have one!! That is where you will be anointed!! That is where provision comes from! That is where you will have joy!
“For by the grace (unmerited favor of God) given to me I warn everyone among you not to estimate and think of himself more highly than he ought [not to have an exaggerated opinion of his own importance], but to rate his ability with sober judgment, each according to the degree of faith apportioned by God to him.
For as in one physical body we have many parts (organs, members) and all of these parts do not have the same function or use, so we, numerous as we are, are one body in Christ (the Messiah) and individually we are parts one of another [mutually dependent on one another].
Having gifts (faculties, talents, qualities) that differ according to the grace given us, let us use them: [He whose gift is] prophecy, [let him prophesy] according to the proportion of his faith; [He whose gift is] practical service, let him give himself to serving; he who teaches, to his teaching;
He who exhorts (encourages), to his exhortation; he who contributes, let him do it in simplicity and liberality; he who gives aid and superintends, with zeal and singleness of mind; he who does acts of mercy, with genuine cheerfulness and joyful eagerness.
[Let your] love be sincere (a real thing); hate what is evil [loathe all ungodliness, turn in horror from wickedness], but hold fast to that which is good. Love one another with brotherly affection [as members of one family], giving precedence and showing honor to one another.
Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavor; be aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord. Rejoice and exult in hope; be steadfast and patient in suffering and tribulation; be constant in prayer.
Contribute to the needs of God’s people [sharing in the necessities of the saints]; pursue the practice of hospitality. Bless those who persecute you [who are cruel in their attitude toward you]; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice [sharing others’ joy], and weep with those who weep [sharing others’ grief].
Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty (snobbish, high-minded, exclusive), but readily adjust yourself to [people, things] and give yourselves to humble tasks. Never overestimate yourself or be wise in your own conceits.
Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is honest and proper and noble [aiming to be above reproach] in the sight of everyone.
If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God’s] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord.
But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head. Do not let yourself be overcome by evil, but overcome (master) evil with good” Romans 12:3-21 (AMP).

Romans 15:15-21 (NKJV)
15 Nevertheless, brethren, I have written more boldly to you on some points, as reminding you, because of the grace given to me by God, 16 that I might be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. 17 Therefore I have reason to glory in Christ Jesus in the things which pertain to God. 18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, to make the Gentiles obedient— 19 in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. 20 And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build on another man’s foundation, 21 but as it is written:
“To whom He was not announced, they shall see; And those who have not heard shall understand.”
