January 31, 2021. The Father says today, stress is not an attribute of being a new creation. I AM the God of yoke easy and burden light. Those who cry the “burden of The LORD, the burden of The LORD” have not appreciated the work of the Cross in their behalf. There is a rest – BELOVED, there is a REST that remains to My Sons and Daughters that they have not partaken of in spite of the fact that it is the low-hanging fruit of My Presence and gifting in their life. Take a breath. Breath in of My rest and breathe out of My Leisure. I did not initiate the work of The Cross to stress you out or lay heavy burdens that others will not lift with just one of their fingers. Reject the religion of burden and conspiracy. Breathe in of the tranquility of My Presence. Breathe out the fullness of My deep and abiding gentleness upon your soul. In the earliest days of your youth, I breathed My love upon you and held you safe and secure in My Presence. That gGace is with you still. Let Me love you and bring you to the secure shores of My Goodness.
Those who have laden you with heavy burdens are the COUNCIL of the UNINFORMED. Love them. Be kind to them but do not walk in their footsteps. You’ve worked and you’ve labored to do the right thing, think the right thing, embrace the good and reject the evil, but I say unto you ABIDING IN THE VINE does all this work for you. Enter into the spontaneity of My effortless endowment of supernatural composer. I say to your burden, be loosed. I declare to your restrictions, false boundaries, and limitations — receive of My effortless rhythms of grace. Your only mandate — YOUR ONLY MANDATE is to be LOVED with the love wherewith I love you. Embrace the intimacy I have afforded you in proximity to My presence. Relinquish the clenched fist — the tension of false standards and expectations. I AM here. My love is the firmament above you and the solidity of affection beneath you. From thence does your composure derive and newness of life originate. My Arms are around you. My Embrace holds you in the warmth of My love. Receive the miracle that I have for you. Allow yourself the love and grace that is your portion, for from this day, nothing will remain the same in your life.
January 30, 2021. The Father says today, remember that the testimony of My Son is the Spirit of Prophecy. Even as Moses declared, I would send a prophet to My people like unto himself, even so, when we led captivity captive, gifts were given to men, and that includes the office of the prophet. As I spoke on Horeb, even so, I AM speaking by My prophetic men and women from the heavenly Mount Zion, My Church, to declare My Truth and declare My Love to a needy and longing people. I AM here, says The Father, talk to Me for I AM talking to you. Through My Word, I AM speaking to you, and I am speaking to you through the witness of the prophets, even modern-day prophets that I’ve sent to you and sent throughout the earth. Their message is not a message of rebuke or condemnation. A true prophet moving authentically in My Spirit will encourage, admonish, and comfort in the character of My heart of love and power.
You aren’t left out, and you are not excluded. Anxiety is going and My Kingdom is coming. Priorities are now being clarified. Seek My Kingdom and all things will be added and I will walk you into the territory of signs, miracles, and wonders. As you can look back to the histories of My Word, so the pages of the scripture are turning under your feet to bring you a valid outpouring of My Grace that is of a New Testament caliber. What you have is not less than as in heaven so on earth, and I choose you to be that recipient and that one who will take Me at My Word in all things. Hear My Voice and harden not your heart. With his discouragements and lies, the enemy wants to jade you and turn your heart in harshness, but I say remain in the place of tenderness before Me, for you will not be disappointed in any way. I AM love, and when you stay in love, love will never fail. Come willingly. Come in authentic worship, and I will bring you out of the wilderness of testing in the full measure of My Goodness that is your portion according to My Promise.
January 29, 2021. The Father says today, better caught than taught. This day I call you away from the letter of the law into the Spirit of My Word. My Word is Spirit. My Word is to your spirit what breathable air is to your outward man. All else, man’s teaching, religious legalism, asphyxiate your inner man, leaving you gasping for one fresh breath of My Presence to sustain and deliver you. I have no interest, says God, to fill your head with religious mush. That only fosters worthless religiosity producing nothing but death. When I teach you from the anointing, you go from merely being informed to receiving actual impartation. I say to you this day receive the impartation of heaven. Impartation to your spirit man is what thoughts are to your natural mind. Receive then the God-mind on the inside of you. Put on the mind of Christ, for I AM in you thinking and I AM in you planning. I AM in you purposing and bringing about the full manifestation of My promise regarding what comes next in your life.
As I build up the reality of who I AM on the inside of you, layer upon layer, you will come to the place where there is nothing left but Me. Then, cleansing occurs. The Adam-dream fades, and the Christ-dream begins to dominate you inwardly. Then outward manifestation can happen. Better is he that rules his own spirit than he that takes a city. What does that mean? There is no outward triumph in your life without inward conquest. Lay siege to the mind of the flesh this day and the mind of the Spirit, who I AM inside you will burst forth from your deepest inner man and work the miracle, move the mountain, and bring forth your breakthrough in a moment of time. This is who I AM on the inside of you. This is who I have made you to be inside of Me. I in you and you in Me are a majority of one. One in Spirit. One in mind. One in solidarity to an unbending intent that you will not be denied one iota of all that I paid for on the Cross on your behalf.
January 28, 2020. The Father says today, keep up; it’s not complicated. I see what you are facing, and I know the pressure you are under. The temptation is to spiral out in your thoughts, seeking some complex solution for your problem, but don’t forget I AM a simple Savior. In My Word, I declared you would go out with joy and be led forth with peace. You don’t need a slide rule for that. Captivity broken and freedom from restriction and heartache are available. I AM not ignoring you, neither am I leaving you behind to suffer and struggle on your own. I AM here. Talk to Me.
When everything around you is uncertain, and you have no stable ground to stand on, realize that I AM your Rock. You can drink from Me and follow Me as you walk through your personal wilderness, for I AM the movable feast always before you every morning to strengthen you, refresh you, and point the way. Keep putting one foot in front of the other. It isn’t necessary to ask why or to comprehend some grand plan. Such thoughts are the mind demanding to be in charge rather than simply putting your hand in Mine and trusting what I do next. The unendurable pressure and blinding pain are going, and peace and joy are coming. Are you ready for some relief? I AM here, and now is My appointed time for your release from all the assaults of the enemy against you.
January 27, 2021. The Father says today, I see your tears, and I hear the cry of your heart in the night. Isolation is going, and answers are coming. The smile of heaven rises over you this day like the morning sun on a spring day. The water brooks of My joy and My bliss are flowing into every empty place in your heart to encourage you and bring joy where there has been disappointment and emptiness. It’s who I AM. It’s what I do. Take heart today. Be encouraged, for the plans I have for you are unfolding even when you don’t see My Hand at work. You are not going to be left out or cast aside. The best, I say to you, the BEST is yet to come.
Never give in to hopelessness. The outlook is not bleak. The promise is not far off or unavailable to you. Say in your heart, “what ELSE could possibly go right?” Declare in those moments of desperation, “THIS is where it gets EASY!” I AM not the author of heaviness or sorrow. If it isn’t yoke easy or burden light, then it isn’t ME. That is not what you’ve always been taught but be a Father-pleaser and believe the good report. You’ve ever committed to doing the right thing, but I say to you this is the moment to do the GOD thing that I’ve planned for you that your heart might rejoice and be filled to overflowing with the outworking of My purposes and the delights I’ve had laid up in store for you at long last.
January 26, 2021. The Father says today, faith is about risk. If you aren’t taking risks; if you aren’t stepping out, faith is dormant and inert. Faith takes risks. Purpose in your day that you are going to be a risk-taker in My Kingdom. That you will face your fears, confront your shortcomings, and challenge the circumstances and situations that are challenging you. The mountains WILL move. The valleys will become a plain, and you will step out onto the highway of forward momentum in My Kingdom that the wayfaring man though a fool will not err therein. Trust Me. Trust the gift of faith believing I’ve put on the inside of you. Despondency will become delight. Heaviness will go, and your spirit will take wings and do the impossible.
Are you ready, says God? Within you lies the creative power of My hand that spun the galaxies into existence and made the planets bow to My will in a moment of time. There are nations in you. There are exploits to be done and adventures ahead of you that will unfold and create in you and for you a future beyond your imagination. You are able because you are in Me, and I AM in you. I’m working. Trust Me. Trust Me with your heart. You won’t be disappointed. You won’t be scandalized or come to failure. My love is in you. It is who I AM and who you are in Me. My Love never fails to create, succeed, embrace, and be loved in return. Accept My Word of Promise and My Power to deliver. I AM with you. You are not alone – ever. The things you’ve believed and reached out for are not an illusion; they are your future unfolding just ahead to satisfy the cry of your heart.
January 25, 2021. The Father says today, allow My gospel to penetrate every Nineveh in your life and your heart. My People must not only come out of the Babel on the earth, but Babel must come out of them. Every tower, every construct, every edifice not founded upon who I AM and what I have done is coming down. There is no room in this walk for the architecture of self-direction to take up space that I have bought in you by the shedding of the blood on Calvary. Before Nineveh ever repented, the Nineveh in Jonah must need have been dealt with. I AM ready, says God, to bring you out of the great fish of your circumstance if you are prepared to do those things I’ve called you to that have conveniently laid unaddressed.
The moment has come, and the time is now. The citizens of Nineveh repented at the preaching of Jonah, and I ask you — are you Jonah in the boat or in the fish? Are you Jonah on the shore or Jonah confronting the Babel all around you that My words burn as fire and bring the masses to My throne? I AM not just moving in individuals; I AM moving to save whole cities. The nations that forgot My Name will again bow at My Altar. My Name will no longer be a byword but a watchword of righteousness in the earth. I call you this day. I commission you as I commissioned Jonah. What next? If you can’t do it yourself, find someone who will do you the kindness of throwing you overboard. Be engulfed in My deeps and become — I SAY BECOME that one who stands between death and life, between heaven and hell with a message of power and love for the darkened minds of those I so love that I gave My all to redeem them.
January 24, 2021. The Father says today – NEW TIME, NEW WINE! You can continue drinking the bitter dregs of yesterday’s disappointment, or you can drink deeply the vintage of My joy set before you this very day. I AM m vining myself in you, and I am branching Myself in you to free you from the false narratives that the Councils of the Uninformed have sought to saturate you with. The vine of my life is an intoxicant not of despondency, but that which will alleviate your sorrows, fill your mouth with laughter, and bring you to rest, recovery, and rejoicing you have never known. I call you a participator, says God, so unclench your hands and unfurrow your brow. This is not a time for clamor or saber-rattling. If my servants were of this world, then they would fight, but your citizenship is in heaven, where peace and joy flow like the waters of Shiloh that go softly. Enter into the Bridal season today, says God! I invite you to My table even this moment, for I have taken the mess that men have made and turned it into a BEST FOR LAST vintage just for you!
I AM the God of vintages, says the Father. Every move of My Spirit has a unique vintage, an aroma, and a taste all its own. As I have poured into your spirit of My Spirit, just let it breathe and allow My nature to saturate your inner man, healing all that is broken. Drinking from yesterday’s wrinkled, old wineskin will only pucker your spirit, leaving you wrinkled in heart and disillusioned in your soul. That is not my destiny for you. As in the days of upheaval in Jerusalem, they said of my children they were drunk, yet it was but the third hour of the day. Let it be said of you — that you are drunken, that you are inebriated with joy and a celebration of My Spirit infilling you and flowing out from you that intoxicates others. Have enough faith to know that the sobriety of men is the drunkenness of God, and the drunkenness of God is in the vine that I have planted in you this very day. You’ve asked for understanding, and you’ve looked for dark sayings in hidden places, but My word to you and My people in the earth is that the NEW TIME — NEW WINE is upon you, so PARTAKE!
January 23, 2021. The Father says today, My Way is walking on the inside of you. My Truth is echoing in the chambers of your mind. My life is beating in the four chambers of your heart, and the cry is “holy, holy, holy.” All that I am and all that there is of My Kingdom is on the inside of you. My kingdom is not an outward thing; it is an inward reality; an indwelling expressing My power, My love, and My Glory in you. Never look outward for what I have placed within where I sit enthroned where your human spirit rests at the center of your being. The middle wall of partition between your soul and your human spirit is removed. The veil is torn, and My Glory now shines in you and through you into the earth and into your circumstance bringing change.
This is who I went to The Cross to cause you to become. You are a New Creation. You are a new species altogether. You are not a mere human being. You are My purchased possession, and in you, I will be magnified. In you, I will be known in the earth as El Shaddai, the All-Sufficient One. Partake of My sufficiency today. Reach by faith and take a double handful of My Goodness and an armful of My favor and cast it into your circumstance by faith and see transformation come. The shift isn’t just coming; you ARE the shift. You ARE revival. You ARE healing. You ARE supply. As I AM, so are you — not only to receive and partake of but to distribute and release to your own need and the needs of others. Open your heart. Say to your mind, “be opened to all God is on the inside of you.” This is your coming out, and this is your standing up. Everything changes from this day forward.
January 22, 2021. The Father says today, ruling and reigning is a now proposition. I have called you and empowered you on this side of your mortality to sit as a king and serve as a priest in My Kingdom. You are not an anemic, simpering, weakling subject to the rigors of a fallen environment. As the winds and the waves obeyed Me, I have so authorized you to command. As the dead raised to life at the word of My Power, so mortality will obey you when you speak in My Name. You are this day moving from authority to authorization. I AM in you, and you are in Me. When the enemy approaches you, he cannot tell where I leave off, and you begin. When he sees you, he sees God-kind, bought by the purchase price of the blood of Calvary. Act in your authority. Step out in the boldness of one who knows who I AM and what I have done to cause you to ride on the high places of the earth.
This is your season of impartation. This day I give you ears to hear My Voice and reverberate it in the chambers of hell, bringing down every principality and power that even dares to trifle with you. Today is the Great Revealing of who I AM in you and who you are in Me. My heart loves your heart. My suffering on the Cross makes the way plain for you to enter and to ascend into the entitlements and full privileges of redemption. You are not excluded. You are not left out. You are not less-than. I choose you, says God. I CHOOSE YOU, and this day I anoint you to walk the earth in My Name. I choose you to stand before Me and be perfect. Men look upon you and see imperfection. I look at you and see the perfection of heaven. I look at you and see the resemblance of the Darling of Heaven reflected in your gaze. You have dove’s eyes and beautiful feet. Rise up in the beauty of who I AM in you and go out and conquer every foe!
January 21, 2021. The Father says today, be God-inside minded. I AM not a far-off God. I AM as close as hands and feet. Turn over a leaf, and I AM there. Look in the deepest darkest concerns of your life, and you will find Me lovingly looking back at you. Be confident. Be audaciously Christ-minded. You are the dwelling place where all that I am and all that I could ever be sits enthroned. My truth is in you. My wisdom leads you. The path is clear, and your timing is perfect for the next step into a higher dynamic of realizing who I AM in you both to will and to do My Good Pleasure.
You are living more than a human experience, groveling in limitation and disappointment. The Limitless One dwells in your heart by faith, and in Me, the limitations are torn away and unattainable desires and longings, at that moment, become the low-hanging fruit of My promise in your life. These truths do not work in you by intellect or rationale. The full bandwidth of My power is not a doctrine to comprehend, but a ground state that you finally realize is your native habitat as an Entitled One in My Kingdom. I AM with you. I AM working. We are workers together, bringing heaven to earth and putting down every principality and power ranged against you. They are dust. They are destroyed, and you are left standing with trophies of your victory in My Name.
January 20, 2021. The Father says today, I set up kings and I remove kings, for I rule in sovereignty over the earth. Man may pull the voting lever, but I decide the outcome, and I have set the boundaries that say this far and no further. When your confidence in man is shaken, and you feel there is no place to turn, realize that My kingdom rules over all, and your citizenship is in heaven and not on the earth. The plans, purposes, and pursuits that seem in such jeopardy in your thinking are firmly in My hand. Nothing is out of My control nor am I pacing back and forth, wondering what I AM going to do about current events that dash men’s courage to the ground, leaving them speechless.
I say to you that the sky is not falling; the kingdom is coming. This nation is not in trouble; it is in transition, for at the end of the day, My hand rules over all. When hope seems lost, remember that the hearts of kings are in My hand, and I turn them about as I see fit. Nothing is happening around you that has the power to drive you away from the place of yoke easy — burden light — unless you allow it. When unrest and difficulty rule the day, say in your heart, “this is where it gets easy.” Then open your mouth and speak to the storm, and the storm will obey you. Expending your energies in fruitless effort and vain discourse is a waste of time. I AM here. I AM on the scene working on your behalf to bring about highest heart’s desire and greatest dream fulfilled no matter what is happening around you.
January 19, 2021. The Father says today, learn from My son David. For as in the days of Ziklag, when it seemed that all hope was lost, having had all that was precious stolen from him, he did not despair. Rather, he encouraged himself in The LORD. Although he was greatly distressed and hated by his own company who had suffered much loss, he did not give up or lay down but encouraged himself in The LORD. He enquired of Me and was comforted to hear Me give him the next strategy to fulfill a divine recovery in his life and situation.
I AM a God of recovery of all that the enemy has stolen. David recovered his family and all that was stolen from him and his company, even the surplus the enemy had stolen from others. Your recovery is inclusive of all that has been stolen and above and beyond as I will make the enemy pay back with interest. Let your response be as this when there is calamity and despair before you, that you too will encourage yourself in The LORD. Inquire of Me for your breakthrough strategies and pursue after them with your whole heart and watch and see the great deliverance of The LORD. For this is the hour of the release of the spoil and the days of the recovery of your inheritance, says The Father.
January 18, 2021. The Father says today, I haven’t brought you this far to leave you. I haven’t led you on this path so that you would fail. I will never leave you and I will never forsake you. When the way seems dark, I will illuminate your footpath with the light of My Glory. My Lamp will never fade; it will never go out. So, loose all darkness from you; reject and resist all darkness and it will flee from you. Submit yourself therefore unto Me; welcome and embrace My light. Bind My goodness and glory to your very soul this hour and behold My delivering power and My hand of righteousness that will move on your behalf.
Go low and worship. Humble yourselves before Me and let My supernatural forgiveness flow from the place within you where I AM seated on the throne of your heart. My Love flows and My Forgiveness reaches this world through you beloved. You are the salt and light in a dark world, and they are thirsting for what is found in you. Seeking even for Who is found in you. You are My portion, and you are My body. When I say I AM the Way, the Truth, and the Life — I have given this mandate to you as My body and My voice. For you show them these things by your example, lighting the path of truth and bringing the words of life and power to a dark and dreary world. I have called you even now for such a time as this My Child.
January 17, 2021. The Father says today, you aren’t lazy. You are just unmotivated to give heed to the misdirection that constitutes the religious status quo. Behold, says God, the religious systems of this world are not too big to fail. Watch as I fold them up as a vesture and bring what is pure, simple, and unbounded to feed My flock on the good word — that word forsaken by men but restored in great anointing this day to the shepherd saints who let go of their agendas and obey Me in full. The Jews believed because they were Abraham’s children that they were indispensable, but I could raise up of the stones, children unto Abraham. This day know this — what men have rejected in their religious prejudice and high-mindedness now becomes ground zero for the emerging move of My Spirit. They will say “God would never use them; they are in false doctrine.” They will bleat like goats saying, “This cannot be — we have the primitive doctrine of pure Christian truth.” They are rejected in their lofty self-opinion.
I now will rain down of My Spirit on ground rejected by the wise and prudent and they will see what many have sought and never found of the works of My hand. I call you out from among those that affirm their own significance to the simplicity of a flock that knows My name and calls My name and feeds the sheep of My pasture. Rejected, they are now chosen. Scorned, they are now clothed with My light and adorned with My favor and good pleasure. Be willing to shift and change and you need not be left out. Just say “Father, I want what you have for Me no matter where that takes me…” Those incapable of simplicity and humility will be left out — sent away from the friend of the bridegroom — from the nuptial season when the Bridegroom takes His bride behind the lattice and brings forth the multitudes from the valley of decision into the safety of My flock, says the Father.
January 16, 2021. The Father says today, there is no neutral ground between heaven and earth. Unbelief and self-direction tread the poisonous path of misdirection and disappointment. Turn your feet to the upward path and the scales will fall from your eyes and cause you to see that more they are that are for you than they that are against you. Don’t listen to those mesmerized by the false report. Your salvation comes not from man but from on high. You’ve carried water for those that walk in frailty with no true answers. You’ve drawn water from wells that will never quench your thirst. Come to the Living Water and refresh yourself once again. Return to the water out of the Rock and the Manna every morning. Be willing to be clueless in Me, and as Abraham, the impossible will then become plausible and fill you with all My goodness.
Can you break the distraction of the evil report? The good report is not about conspiracy or dark deeds done in hidden places. Stop giving heed to those who use the anointing I gave them to sound alarm when I have not sent them and who compel you to drink from cisterns, even the broken cisterns that can hold no water. I AM calling a convocation of the faithful in the earth. Behold, I open your mouth to pray prayers so audacious you will question their validity. Stand on the foundation I died to put under you. Even this day Satan is struck down like lightning from the heavens and righteousness takes the stage and manifests My glory to a darkened world. That is your portion and your place; let all else go. Empty your hands and open your heart to THAT GLORY and you will not be disappointed.
January 15, 2021. The Father says today, behold, the Shepherd stirs in the sheepfold. Those that are scattered, alarmed, lied to and misinformed are being gathered. They are being gathered to one voice, and one Shepherd and in Him they will contend and wage war. The purchased promise and redemption’s full price are about to be paid into your life as the cosmic dividends from the repository of My glory. I’ve said pray “as in heaven so on earth.” Why carry in this life what is non-existent in the heavens? Religion and the counsels of the uninformed have sold you a bill of goods. Tears shed arising from religious misinformation are tears shed in vain . Dry your eyes and unsheathe your sword. Wield the sword of My Spirit as an unyielding warrior of My armies on the earth. Then the armies in heaven will rain down in thunder to wage battle alongside you and the victory will not be denied.
You’ve spent your energies for naught, says God — look to the Rock that bore you. A political party did not work righteousness for you on the Cross. A political messiah has no power to save. Yet I AM still on the Throne and not one thing that has come to pass has put sweat on My Brow or trembling in My Hand. Forsake the staff of man — it is broken. Look to Me. Place your expectations on Me. Have you ever come empty-handed from the place of prayer? Can you not tarry with Me even when you know My promise of unswerving outcome, dominion, and strength? I AM your Captain and I call you out from the ranks of the disappointed and those that are chagrined with something that can be so readily dealt with by My Hand. Look to Me My People. What promise will I deny you? What dominion will I not lay at your feet as you release the mandates of your faith on the foundations of this corrupt earth? Make your demand not of the false balance of man but the true testimony of My Word.
January 14, 2021. The Father says today, when the death of the Cross makes its mark in your life then My image in you will be manifest. I took your sorrows, and I took your pain that you might live above desperation and captivity. Make a choice, says God. Make a choice to relinquish the outcome. When you relinquish the outcome the tyranny of emotion will be broken in your life, and peace, My Peace will find you. Make a determination in spite of the waves of grief and unrequited longing to have no opinion. Am I not more to you than innumerable earthly possessions? Refuse to fear what happens next or what happened yesterday or last month or last year. I’m standing in your future mocking the power of the present to confine you. I AM standing in your past, treading down the poisonous infection of emptiness and pain. Emotions, speculations, plans of man and purposes of the uninformed heart will no longer hold you when you think like I think and embrace My Mind no matter how deeply your mind seeks to hold you bound. I AM here. Listen to Me. I AM here — talk to Me. Accept the Grace I’ve put in your path and feed on My Faithfulness.
I know your heart, says God. I AM touched with the infirmities that no remedy in the depths or the heights can cure. Have I not sent My Remedy into your life? Have I not surrounded you with unbending Grace, and Love, and Safety? Not on your terms but on mine. Stop trying to force things to your mold, you don’t have all the information. Behold, I heal your incurable wound and make you God-kind, blood bought, crucified to sin, reflecting My Glory in the face of Jesus Christ. Lay your desires, your longings, your regrets and self-recriminations on the altar before My Throne. Those things will then become coals that release a sweet-smelling savor to Me and no longer an incense of misgiving and captivity in your life. Call out to Me. Cry out to Me in the day of trouble — I will not turn a deaf ear or a closed heart to what you are facing. None of this took Me by surprise. Do you trust Me? You SAY you trust Me but if so, you will release the reigns and let Me take it from here. Then the hands of time will gain pace and with speed translate you to highest heart’s desire and greatest dream fulfilled.
January 13, 2021. The Father says today, what are you waiting for? Watching and waiting is a surrender to time bound reality in a fallen world. You cannot wait on Me until you enter that timeless realm where I live and move and cause you to have your being. I put you in this life as I put Adam in Eden — to subdue and have dominion. This includes time. Time is a function of fallen creation. Come up higher. Come up and take your place seated in Christ in a timeless posture where time is your servant and the seconds, hours, and years bend to your will and bow to the authority I have placed within you by the work of the Cross. Step out of time. Step out of time and into eternity. Redeem time by reducing time to a footnote of the greater dominion accorded you through the work of the Cross. To do otherwise is willingly allowing yourself to be a victim — a victim of causality and a victim of random happenstance in a realm defined by the principality of chronos that I’ve given you total authority over.
Step up to your authority in Christ this day. Death dies in timelessness. The fangs of loss and the brutality of pain are eliminated as you take your place seated not just by but IN Christ. The way has been made. The path is made clear not by your consecration but by the consecration of the One who went before you, defeating death, hell and the grave and leading captivity captive that you might live in the ascendancy on this side of heaven in a human life of grace in abundance and limitlessness. Release your faith. Unlimber your human reasoning to My wisdom personified in Jesus dwelling within you. Then you will walk through walls and take the prey from the mouth of the lion and the paw of the bear. You belong to Me. This day I release you from the rack of tortuous time that you might know because I have time, you have time and every other thing necessary for life and godliness.
January 12, 2021. The Father says today, dance with Me. Dance as David danced, unashamed and unafraid. I’ve poured joy into every pore of your being and filled you with the celebration of My Spirit to utterly dispel all heaviness and sorrow. My Kingdom is righteousness, peace and joy. My Kingdom — My Rule doesn’t just BRING joy; it IS joy. Never — I say to you NEVER relinquish your joy. The joy I’ve placed in you will take you where nothing else will. Receive My joy. Be saturated with My joy. Let My joy run down your cheeks like nectar from the first fruit plucked on the first morning of the first day of the world. Joy is your portion. Peace is your portion. The dark days are OVER, says God, and new light has come. Light to the world, light to your path, light that leads to your destiny in full manifestation with nothing lacking. Receive it! Let the mandate of your faith reach out and bring My joy out of the unknown into the known, out of the insubstantial into spinning, turning, lifting your arms and shouting in concert with the host of joy imbibers — those who drink deeply of the thousands and millions around you.
The long nightmare is over. Don’t look to the machinations of man or the predictions of doom and failure. You are not doomed. You are a jewel fitly set in a bridal gown of the consummation of My heart and love for you. I see you. I hear you. You are not overlooked. You are not unknown. Go ahead and smile. Go ahead and laugh. Make the chaos decision that your head doesn’t understand but your heart leaps saying, YES! Walk on the water! Receive the impossible as your common portion. No more tears. No more downturn. The portals of provision, guidance and a heart filled to the brim with every good thing was laid up in store for you before the foundation of the world. It’s not a lie. It’s not a fantasy. It’s who I AM and what I do and now is the time that I bring My People to The Kingdom and The Kingdom to My People in full measure that defeats the enemy and establishes their uprisings and down sittings in authority they have never known. Cast off the grave clothes. Throw away the words of man and hear My Words of hope, peace, possibility and fulfilled potential, says your God.
January 11, 2021. The Father says today, know this day the depth, height and breadth of the love I hold for you in My heart. You have tasted of love and of being loved on a human level. The most sublime, pure, passionate love between a woman and a man is but the faintest, misty reflection of what My heart experienced when I formed you in Eden and lifted you in Adam from the earth and crowned you with grace and glory from the very first morning of the very first day. My heart embraced you then and embraces you still. My breath filled you with destiny and crowned you from My brow to be a creature of dominion, to walk in the Divine Embrace and total intimacy with Me in the fullness of My Spirit.
You are a member this day of the Bridal Company of Christ. The nuptial perfume of My gentle breezes are calling you from behind the lattice, out of the wilderness, My bridal company, My people, terrible as an army with banners. This is your hour to rise up as a formidable king and priest unto My name, oh, My beloved. Sequester yourself to Me. Your brash, impudent leaders have failed you. Look to Me. Be complete in Me for I am your All-in-All. Unclench your fists. Take your hands away from the neck of your enemy. You will never solve the problem on the level of the problem; you must ascend to Me. I tell you “I’ve got this!” I am in control. Rest in My capable arms. Rise up, ascend to new joy, new peace, a new heaven and a new earth that is your portion.
January 10, 2021. The Father says today, knowing who you are in Christ is far more critical than any other thing you could focus on. You are the redeemed. You are the entitled son of a loving Father. You are a purchased one in the price of Calvary. You are a seated one — far above every principality or power. When you look in the mirror, make the declaration, “I am a seated one at the right hand of My Father.” You are not a worm groveling in the ashes of your guilt and unworthiness. I say to you this day, you are clean; you are forgiven. Those who put their mind and their mouth on things I’ve washed you from by My blood are agents of the ninth circle of hell, and their recompense will not sleep. Never put your mind on what “they” say because their words will not affect you; they will only sentence themselves to live out the words they have spoken against the anointing.
Be willing to look yourself in the mirror with brutal honesty. Face those things that have been hidden to you but evident to all those who know you. Come out of misdirection and self-conceit. Accept the enormity of your potential. There is nothing limited or diminished about you in My eyes. When I laid out the blueprint of your destiny, there were teams of angel engineers working overtime to fashion and form the fullness of My glory flowing into you and out from you unto the nations. There is nothing to be frustrated about. Just act. Accept that My kingdom is motion-activated and voice-activated. Discipline the words coming out of your mouth and step out boldly, putting your hands to the small beginning, and before you realize a tableau of My glory will manifest, reshaping your destiny and launching you into the fullness of all I have for you.
January 9, 2021. The Father says today, if you will live in the limitless glory, it is necessary to identify your limits and deconstruct them one by one. What does that entail? You must spend more time developing your strengths than coddling your weaknesses. Wherever you concentrate your energies, that will become that thing that dominates your life and controls your future. The time for navel-gazing and fostering a victim mentality are over. You are not a victim; you are a victor. In My Glory, you enter a realm where everything you do becomes as effective as if I said it or did it. That is the BLANK CHECK anointing and favor that is the blood-bought provision for you and every believer. Dead religion pats you on the shoulder and turns your attention to your wounds, your disappointments, and past failures. My agape ascendancy lifts you out of what was and what is and sets you on a highway that the wayfaring man though a fool will not err therein.
Fret not the failures of the past. As you step into My favor and walk in My Kingdom, I will cause even your worst mistakes to prosper you into an unprecedented new day beyond all your expectation.
Shake yourself, says God. Take your shoes off your feet, for the ground under your feet becomes holy because you are standing on it. I AM in you, and you are in Me — there is then nothing ahead for you but “always triumph,” going from faith to faith and glory to glory. Say in your heart, “what ELSE could possibly go right?” When the dark clouds loom over, declare out of your mouth, “things are great and getting greater.” Then the storms will lift, your enemy will retreat, and your blessing will spring forth, reframing your life, removing every disappointment, and raising you to a new grace — a new level of promotion beyond your ability to comprehend.
January 8, 2021. The Father says today, no more delay, no more denial. I AM not holding out on you, says the Father, and I haven’t withdrawn from you either. My default response to the cry of your heart is “yes” – on My terms. Be willing, be obedient, and you will eat the fat of the land. Things are the way they are because of what you’ve been doing; if you want something different, you must do something different. Some patterns and attitudes that have been with you lifelong are not working for you; they are working against you. No more excuses. No more justifications. Lose the baggage and pick up the luggage and be willing to be challenged — you will not be disappointed.
When you are stepping out in faith, you have to choose not to listen to your critics. Some insist I have rejected your dream and turned My face from you. They are the councils of the uninformed. They are the blind leading the blind, blinded by their opinions, blinded by their own transgressions. They will proceed no further. I AM standing in the open door of highest heart’s desire and greatest dream fulfilled. The way is clear; the obstacles are removed. Step out of passivity this day and experience what I have for you as you walk on the water, cast out devils, heal the sick, and lay hold on the mark of the prize of the high calling ready for you in The Glory.
January 7, 2021. The Father says today, can you take NOW and LATER for an answer? I’ve declared in My word “as in heaven so on earth” as your prayer assignment. Would I have you pray a vain thing or an empty promise? Ascension living is not a “one day, someday” proposition. You are living the ascension now. The fire of heaven envelops you and baptizes you in the fire that John the Baptist proclaimed. John baptized with water, but I AM that One, your elder brother, who baptizes you in the Fire of My Presence that cannot be quenched by violence or sword, pestilence or persecution. Step into the fire of My now, says God. Ruling and reigning is now for I call you a king and a priest ON the EARTH now; not just someday a harp on a cloud misunderstanding.
Speak in the authority of the shed blood of Christ and the elements will obey you. Speak to the problem, the demonic stronghold, every area of deficit and lack in your life. Speak as I spoke to the fig tree and those obstacles will melt with a fervent heat never to be seen again. It is time to shed the grave clothes of empty religion for I have this day exposed you to direct contact with the divine. No more religious middleman. As I spoke with Moses face to face, I will speak with you and your visage will change — your face will shine with My brightness and that brightness will expel every demon and every contradiction to My Blessing and nature that comes against you.
January 6, 2021. The Father says today, no more sleeping for sorrow. The days of mourning are passed; the days of the King have come. When you pray, says God, you are not begging or pleading; you are ruling and reigning. Those who plead and grovel in prayer know nothing of the entitlements of the Cross that accrue to them as My Children. I say to you awake to righteousness. Awake to the blood-bought rights that are inherently yours as a favored child of a loving Father. You are not bereft or left to your own. I have bequeathed to you the storehouses of heaven and consigned the full weight of My Power, glory, and the host of angels to engage with your life and address — even every area of need in this season.
You are living now on ground that is an extension of what heaven will be like. You are walking like Enoch into your eternality. You are not destined for frailty, weakness, or going out of this life with a whimpering last gasp. I say to you the day is come that My children will put on immortality and take the spoil and render the kingdom as a bounty at My Feet. You are a ruler, and you are one who reigns. There is not one enemy of hell that will disenfranchise you from the least of heaven’s benefits!
January 5, 2021. The Father says today, there is a King on Zion, and there is a Savior on His holy hill. Your salvation comes, and it comes right quickly. I will not falter, and I will not fail in your life, says God. am come down, and the heavens will depart as a scroll, and the mountains and hills shall melt with a fervent heat as I reach down and pull you out of all your troubles. What resistance can the evil one give to Me in the day I stand up for your defense and your deliverance? What bulwark or gates or bars will the enemy erect to deny Me the victory I have promised you? No, he will fall, and all his strategies will be soiled refuse in the streets not worthy of giving credence or to remember for any reason. I AM with you, says God, for good and not for evil. I will occupy those who oppose you and think evil of you — I will occupy them elsewhere — leave them to Me.
Never speak compromise to those who mock your faith in Me and make light of your vision. You can’t love a devil, and you can’t make terms of peace with a devil. Where you are willing to make allowances for the sake of peace is the foothold the enemy will take and devour your life with an open mouth. Stand up against the opposer and the mocker and those who have set themselves against. Stand up in the power of My might and know that the arrows that fly from them by day will be answered by My arrows from heaven. They will be stopped, and when the smoke of their destruction clears, you will be left standing with the tokens of the victory of the Cross set securely upon you, bringing you onward into your promised destiny.
January 4, 2020. The Father says today, you have left Jordan’s wilderness and entered into your personal Promised Land. I have given it to you, and it is your portion, but remember I will not drive out the adversary all at once, for I have called you to be a warrior in My Kingdom. Set your foot for war and gird the sword of My Word upon your thigh. Take the shield of faith and stand boldly moving forward with an unbending intent that you will not be denied that which I have promised you.
Not everyone will be as excited about where I AM taking you as you are. They are blind leaders of the blind, incapable of having faith for anything but their own self-interest. Do not meddle with them; neither allow them to give you pause with their counsels and criticisms. Never listen to your critics. Never listen to those who say in their pride, “I’m just playing the devil’s advocate…” Cut them off and keep pressing into the mark for the prize of the high calling, for your highest heart’s desire and greatest dream fulfilled is much closer than you realize.
January 3, 2020. The Father says today, I AM your comfort. It’s Who I AM and what I do. When life chafes your spirit and leaves you spent and exhausted, drink deeply of the waters of My Spirit. I AM the spring of Living Water bubbling up to refresh and renew you during those moments of total chaos. When your emotions are erratic, and your mind is numb with the turmoil in your life, take a moment and breathe in of My peace and breathe out of My Joy. The angels assigned to your life stand ready with a full portion of contentment of heart to regenerate and restore those inner resources that circumstances have eroded away. This is not the time to push the panic button. This is the season for you of yoke easy and burden light. Take My Yoke upon you and receive the burden light that is the portion for all those that put their trust in Me.
Take no thought for the situation, beloved. The things that are seen are temporal and changeable. The things that are not seen are eternal and immutable — without change. The unseen realm of My Kingdom resident within you rules over every outward situation and circumstance. The evening and the morning bow in total submission to My Plan for your life. Everything contrary to My thoughts and destiny chosen for you before the foundation of the world evaporates to nothingness as you recline on My bosom and suckle on My Faithfulness. Know this as your most basic entitlement and as a blood-bought child of the Most High. Just roll over on your back in the river of life and let the current of My Goodness and favor take you where worry and anxiety will never go.
January 2, 2020. The Father says today, the curse is reversed, and newness of life becomes your portion. The blessings of Abraham are yours, beloved. As I promised Abraham, I will curse those who curse you and bless those who bless you. Those who even trifle with you will be execrated out of your life — emphasis on the word “execrate.” I see the tyranny of the oppressor. They wrongly think they are in charge of what happens next. I see those who slander and whisper dark thoughts in hidden places. They will hear a sound and be moved out of your life with permanence, never to be seen again. Yes, it has been long in coming but never mistake My long-suffering with a refusal to deal with the situations in your life that are outside the parameters of “life and life more abundantly.”
This is the season of being rooted and grounded like a tree by the living water. Death cannot reach you — the curse of those who curse you will fall inert at your feet to be returned on their own head. I have laid out in your life the boundaries of My promise and My blessings. Now you will rise up and leap over the wall and run through the troop. Others will look on in disbelief at how fast I bring about My good word on your behalf. They thought nothing would ever change. They imagined they could continue to wipe their mouth and claim they did nothing wrong. They were mistaken. The hour of the curse is nullified, and total recovery of what was lost in your life has arrived, and great will be your rejoicing, says the Father.
January 1, 2021. The Father says today, you may feel like you are in over your head but know this — I AM the wave breaking over your life to bring hope, joy, and expectation beyond all imagining. I AM a good God, and I live on the inside of you — there is no need to struggle. Cease from your labors. It isn’t necessary to try to gain your footing in the situation, for I AM coming up under you with wings of glory that you might take flight and pass over as in a moment those mountains that have threatened you for so long.
Go ahead this day and move out into the waters to swim in. No more duck wading in the shallows. I AM beckoning and calling you out into the fathomless deeps where the whale song of My Spirit is calling to you that you might come away with Me. I’ve chosen you, and I’ve set My seal on your heart and marked you on the forehead with an iron pen with a diamond point. You are mine; I AM yours. What about the enemy? Their harassment is ending — now, so rejoice and receive My joy as your immediate portion, even this day.
