What hope? What New Year dreams and wishes and hopes? What? For what? Peace on Earth?

Not going to happen…. yet. Health and wealth, prosperity, freedom from problems and worries? Lots of ‘words’ going out full of ‘hope’ for wonderful blessings, physical and spiritual for the coming year – showers of blessings, pouring out of the Spirit, anointing, miracles – “words” full of hope. And yes, some are going to experience those things – some…… but most are banking on those sugary, hope-filled promises, with absolutely no idea how to be in a position to receive from the Lord.

“Come into My throne room and stay there. I am locking doors behind My chosen ones, and the Blood of the Lamb is upon the lintel. You may be surprised to see who is in the throne room and under the protection of My wings. Not everyone who claims Psalm 91 – surely not – for My promises are not for the many, but for those who have chosen the narrow road – for those who have completely surrendered to Me, and who know how to get into the throne room! Many you would expect to see there will not be there! they will be left outside, not under My protection – but will be refined until they understand that My Way is not their way – My way is too simple for them – they want to make the way difficult through all of their rantings, their rules and regulations, and have put heavy burdens on My sheep. They will not be lost, but will pay dearly for their disobedience, their hesitation, their rebellion.

Who are those, that say, “Oh when the trials begin, then I will run to His feet” – oh foolish ones, caught in lies and deceptions, how can you enter if the door is closed!

They will not enter this time of protection, for as the door is locked behind My blessed ones, the forces of darkness will now have free reign on the people, the nations, nature and the intents of evil men.”

Do you know how to enter His Presence? Do you know what it takes? That ‘door’ is getting ready to be slammed shut – the door behind which His children are protected from the enemy, pestilence, plague and destruction, for the Blood of the Lamb is over the lintel. But not all who say, Lord, Lord, will enter in. And many will face trials beyond their imaginations.

To clarify, this is not talking about any kind of removal of people from this earth – it is talking about protection, Divine protection wherever you are physically located, if you are in His will and where you are supposed to be – spiritually and physically.

The door is closing – “Enter My throne room…………….. and stay there!”
