Chapter 10
Revelation 5: The Unlikeliest Place for the Greatest Love Story Ever Told
Several years ago, I was seeking the Lord one morning when the Lord spoke to me and said, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, and I never change. Even to this day I am still the beginning and the end, and I always will be”. I mediated for a moment on these words, and I even acknowledged before the Lord that I believed that he was; it was I just did not know why the Lord had said this to me. Then the Lord quickened to me that which is written in Revelation 1:10 “I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day…”. Then he said to me, “All of the events that John testified of throughout the book of Revelation, they were not given to him by vision or by dream, but he witnessed them as they actually happened. I just told you that I could go the beginning or the end at any moment that I so desired, and that is exactly what I did when I took John in the spirit so that he could actually witness Satan and his angels falling from heaven in the beginning, and I also took him in the spirit to the end where he witnessed the great white throne of judgment”. Until the Lord spoke this word to me, I had never really given it much consideration as to why Jesus was called the Alpha and the Omega, or the beginning and the end, but now my curiosity was really peaked, seeing that he had just revealed that John was able to witness these events as they actually occurred. From a time stand point, John died around 2000 years ago, and the great white throne of judgment will not actually occur for at least another 1000 years. Like many things that the Lord has allowed me to witness, I have no clue as to how the Lord is able to perform these things, but I do believe that he is able to do it. In fact, I just want to give glory to God in this moment and thank him for humbling my pride so that I no longer am captive to the thinking that tries to understand or comprehend how the spiritual God is able to do things that are exceedingly abundantly above what I am able to think or ask. Even so, I was now curious as to just why the Lord would even explain such a thing as this to me.
II Corinthians 5:8 “We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.”
I Corinthians 2:11,12 “For what man knows the things of man except the spirit of man who is in him? Even so, the things of God no man knows, only the Spirit of the Lord. Now we have not received the spirit of this world, but the spirit which is of God so that we might know the things which are freely given to us of God”.
How can man who lives under the laws of time and space understand and know the God who lives and inhabits eternity? We have a God who has said that his thoughts are not our thoughts, yet we foolishly think that God thinks like we do. It is written in Isaiah that God thinks, and it comes to pass. I have seen that most my past unbelief and doubts about God came forth through the pride of my ignorance, thinking that God was thinking as I thought. That is, whatever was impossible for me must also be impossible with God. If I could not do something, then I foolishly thought that God could not do it either; like love my enemies, or bless those who curse me, or make ways in situations where solutions seemed impossible, or the best one of them all; “How could God love a man like me.” When man uses his natural senses to try and correctly interpret the being of the spiritual God, then nothing of any truth is going to come forth. It is for this reason that I quit trying to reason out God does things like taking John to witness events as they occurred, even though they happened or will happen 7000 years apart. I then realized that the Lord would not have spoken these words to me unless he was also trying to prepare me for something that the Alpha and the Omega reveals. I then became very excited that the Lord was going to show me a new thing.
Then the Lord led me to read all of Revelation 5, when “And I saw, in the right hand of him that sat upon the throne, a book written on both sides, and then sealed with 7 seals. And I saw a strong angel, proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?" And no man in heaven, nor in the earth, neither was there any under the earth, who was able to open the book, or who was able to look inside. And I wept much, because no man was found worthy "to open and to read the book", neither to look upon it. Then one of the elders said unto me, "Do not weep, for behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David has prevailed to open the book, and to loose the 7 seals upon it. And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb, as it had been slain, having 7 horns, and 7 eyes, which are the 7 spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne. And when he had taken the book, the 4 beasts and the 24 elders, fell down before the Lamb, everyone having harps and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sung a new song saying, "You are worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof; for you where slain and have redeemed us to God by your blood, out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation. And you have made us to be kings and priests unto our God; and we shall reign on the earth. And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels, who were around the throne, and also the beasts and the elders. And the number of them was 10,000 times 10,000, and 1000's and 1000's; and they were saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.…”
Wow! Even though I had read this chapter many times before, I had never before realized just how big of an event this was, seeing that there was at least 100,000,000 heavenly creatures witnessing this event. The Lord even confirmed for me that John did not witness this event by a vision or a dream because one of the 24 elders actually came over and spoke to him, just like when those 4 little angels that actually spoke to me.
All of a sudden, I felt the presence of the Lord come upon me, and in the quickest of moments, I felt like the heavens just parted for me, and suddenly I found myself in the heavens in the presence of the voice of the Lord. I could not see the Lord but I felt his presence all around me as well as all in me. Then the Lord surprised me when he spoke this question, “When did I get the victory?” I thought about this for only a moment before I answered him that which I had always believed saying, “Lord, did you not get the victory when you suffered and died on the cross?” Then the Lord answered my question with a question: “Were there not thousands and thousands of others who were scourged and also crucified on those same Roman crosses as I was? Did not they all suffer greatly before they died also? I then answered, “Yes, Lord, they did". Then the Lord said, “Well then, if the victory was gotten through the suffering and the death of the cross, then would not all those who suffered and died in like manner as I did also be called victorious? Should they not also be worshipped and called Lord?” My heart just sank within me, just like it does every time that I answer a question that the Lord ask of me, because I rarely, if ever, am able to answer his questions correctly. I had always assumed that the cross was where the victory was because I had just accepted this because this is what I had been told by other Christians.
Then I paused to again consider the question that Father had asked me. Then, very timidly, I said, “Lord, I suppose that the reason that I do not worship them is because they did not suffer and die for my sins like you did?" Then the Lord answered and said, “This is true; for I willingly offered myself up for you so that by my blood could wash away your sins. I shed my blood so that the guilty blood could be redeemed with the blood of the innocent. Surely the new covenant is established in my blood. Let my blood signify to you that you have a Lord whose love for you is so great that I willingly suffered and died for each one who comes to believe on me. Let my blood always be a sign unto you that the grace of my love is greater than the sin that dwells in you. When I died on that cross, the veil in the temple tore completely in two, from top to bottom, signifying the end of the old and the beginning of the new. No longer could the sins of a man be atoned for by the blood of bulls and lambs”, says the Lord, “but by my blood only. But still, if the victory was not found in the suffering and the shedding of my blood on that cross, then where was it? The only victory that was found on the day of my death was the victory that the proud and the wicked thought that they had won because they were able to crucify me. Again, the cross is a symbol of the greatness of the love that I have for all sinners, but truly, it is also a symbol of the hatred the proud hypocrites have towards the truth of God’s love; for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever shall believe on him shall not perish but have everlasting life.
Acts 4:26 The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel were gathered together.”
Do not forget this truth, the only victory that the cross signifies is that which the darkness thought that it had won when they crucified me; for it was here that the heathen of this world united with the religion of the self-righteous to murder the Son of God. Have you not yet perceived that even the people of God found more value in choosing a murderer and a thief unto themselves rather than the Son sent to them from their God? In this is found the enmity that rules over all those who are kept in bondage to the thoughts and desires of the carnal mind; a mind which lusts to hate any thought, or any man, or any doctrine, or any spirit that allows for the God of life to have any reign over it. This is the blindness of this world, the ignorance that keeps those who are carnally minded separated from the life that I created for men to be partakers of. Have I not revealed unto you that my will for you is that you may all be partakers of abundant life? Is it not written that when I rule in your hearts, you will experience a peace and joy that those of this world can not possibly experience? I have no desire to reign over the lives of men through force, or by intimidation, or by control, or by cruelty, or by oppression, for all of these forms of government are of this world; the governments of the kingdoms that Satan offered me if I would bow down and worship him. Did I not say that my kingdom was not of this world?
John 18:36 NASB “Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would be fighting so that I would not be handed over to the Jews; but as it is, My kingdom is not of this realm.”
John 14:27 “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world gives, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
Colossians 3:15 “And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.”
In truth, the world crucified me because I came to free the minds of men from the misery and the oppression that the rulers of darkness have ruled over this world with. Do you now see more clearly how that the victory that this world of darkness thought that it had won was to rid this world from my presence, from all of my influences, from all of my ways, from all of my truths, and from my love? For the presence of my Spirit, my ways, my truths, and my love free the souls of men from the corruption and oppression that the darkness has ruled over worldly governments and false religions with, as the from the worldly governments and false religions that have ruled within. Of course, the victory that this world thought that they had won over me was only an illusion of their own thinking; an illusion that deceives many into thinking and believing that it is better to live their lives in bondage to the miseries of fear rather than in the greatness of my love. Let the cross always be a symbol to you, a symbol that signifies that you truly are the object of all of my love and affection. Let the blood that I shed for you always remind you that there is no sin or iniquity that is greater than the grace and the mercy that my blood does not cover your heart and mind with. I know the thoughts that I think towards you, and they are thoughts to do you good, to love you, to give you my kingdom, and to bless you with abundant life and peace of mind. But do you believe me?
Ecclesiastes 3:11 “He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God makes from the beginning to the end.”
I John 2:15-17 NKJ “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.”
Galatians 6:14 NIV “May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.”
Romans 8:2 “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the laws of sin and death…6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. The carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God (law of abundant life in Christ Jesus), and neither can it be…15 For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear…”
Then the Lord asked me, “So I ask you again; if then the victory was not at the cross, where was it?” Was it in the tomb when I arose from the dead?” Seeing that I had erred so with my last answer, I thought the better of it this time, carefully considering what I might say to answer the question. After I considered it for a time, I then said, “Lord, I know that it is written in I Corinthians 15:26 that “The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death”; so I suppose that if you had triumphed over all of your other enemies, then the victory would have surely been won when you arose from the dead.” Even though I answered, I was still wondering within me if the “last” triumph really signified “the victory”. Then the Lord answered and said, “If the victory was in the resurrection, then why did not the victory also go to Lazarus, or to Jairus’ daughter, or to the child that Elijah raised from the dead? If then the resurrection is truly where the victory is to be found, then why do you not call these your Lord, or worship them as your king?” I then answered, “Because Lord, it is written that you alone should be worshipped and served.”
Now my curiosity was peaked, and I perceived that there was one thing that the Lord was trying to make perfectly clear to me, and that was wherever the victory truly was, it would be found in something that only Jesus Christ himself was able to do. So I then asked him, “Lord, if the victory was not won at the cross or in the tomb, then where was the victory won?” The Lord then answered and said, “It is true that I overcame death, as well as all of the enemies that oppress my people; for it was with me just as it is with all men, that my fight was not with flesh and blood, but with powers and principalities, with the rulers of the darkness, with all manner of wicked spirits, and with flesh. I overcame all of the forces that rule over this present evil world. Surely, each one of these triumphs was a great victory, but just like in any war, being victorious in just one or two battles does not signify that the war has been won. In all of the battles that I won, I overcame an enemy that flesh and blood was powerless to overcome; but still, the victory was not yet. Yes, it is truth that the last enemy that I overcame of this world was death, and it was this triumph that I experienced that completed the victory over all flesh, over all powers and principalities, over the rulers of this world, and over all wicked spirits; but still the victory was not yet.
Having overcome all of these things, I was then found to be without blame and unspotted from the filth of this world. It was then that I was accounted worthy to appear before my Father’s throne; and being found worthy, I was then able to take the book from my Father’s lap that no being before me, not in heaven, nor on the earth, and neither beneath the earth, had been found worthy to do before me. Being found worthy, I then took the book and removed the seals from off of the book. It is here, in my Father’s presence, that the victory was finally won. When I suffered and died on that cross, or when I arose from the dead, did 100,000,000 heavenly creatures fall upon their faces, rejoicing and singing praises saying, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain?” If the victory had been won at the cross, or if it was in the resurrection, then would not all of these heavenly creatures rejoiced and praised me then. And if they would have rejoiced and praised me for these things, would they not have also rejoiced and sang praises of all thousands that had previously been scourged and crucified, as well as all those who had also been resurrected? Were there any among these who were accounted worthy to take the book from my Father’s lap, and then remove the seals thereof?
I alone was found worthy. I alone was found worthy among all the creatures in heaven, among all the creatures on earth, and among all the creatures beneath the earth. I alone overcame the world that is compassed with lies. I alone overcame the worldly man that is perverted through the desires of the flesh, the desires of the eyes, and the pride of this life. I alone overcame the corrupted judgments of this world. I alone overcame the hypocrisies of self-righteousness. I alone overcame the spirit of man that keeps men in bondage to fear. I alone overcame the wisdom of this world that loves to hear and believe the lies of Satan. I alone was found worthy to stand in the holy presence of the glory of my heavenly Father, and I alone was able to take the book. It was I, the Lamb of God, who all of these heavenly creatures bowed before and worshipped, and sang, and praised saying, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power, riches, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessings”. I alone.”
When the Lord finished speaking, I just sat there completely speechless and numb concerning these things that my ears had just heard. Never once had I heard preached or taught, or even considered of myself, that the victory was completed in the events that are described in Revelation 5. Seeing that I had not once even considered that this is where the victory was, I then realized that I really did not even understand as to why the victory was completed here. I then wondered what it was that was written in that book. Then the Lord continued and said, “It was when I was found worthy to take the book and open it that my heavenly Father gladly gave to me his prize, his entire heavenly kingdom, as well as the fullness of his power, his riches, his wisdom, his strength, his honor, his glory, and his blessings. Even though you do not yet perceive the truth of what I am speaking to you, you will shortly. Even though I overcame the world with all of it’s wickedness, all of it’s corruption, all of it’s evil, and all of it’s perversion, was it to win my Father’s kingdom for myself, seeing that I had it all before I came into this fallen world? No, I did all of these things so that I could win my Father’s kingdom for you, and all those who come to believe on me. I won my Father’s kingdom for those who would allow for me to reign in their hearts and their minds with peace, and with truth, and with goodness, and with joy, and with wisdom, and with love, and with abundant life.
Luke 12:32 NKJ “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.”
Romans 14:16-18 NKJ “Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil; for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.”
I Corinthians 14:20 NKJ “For the kingdom of God is not in word but in power.”
Hebrews 12:25-29 NKJ “See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.”
You know that it is written that no eye has seen, nor has any ear heard, and neither has there been any heart that has been able to correctly perceive the things that are of God, which are the very things that God has prepared for his church, my bride. Now hear and understand: It is written, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” But when the fall came, the darkness of ignorance compassed the hearts and minds of men so that man became alienated and separated from the life that God had created man to be partakers of; a life of fellowship, communion, friendship, and love with God. It is this same darkness of ignorance that has blinded the hearts and minds of men so that when they read the Word, leaning to their own understanding, their eyes cannot see, their ears cannot hear, and their hearts cannot correctly perceive any of the truths of the Word; for to see, and to hear, and to perceive the Word is to see, and to hear, and to perceive God himself. No man knows the Father except the Son, and he to whom the Son reveals the Father to.
Matthew 11:27 NIV “All things have been committed to me by my Father. No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.”
John 17:3 NIV “Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.”
Philippians 4:9 “More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them but rubbish so that I may gain Christ.”
Ignorance of God is that which the darkness consists of; and it is out of this cesspool of ignorance that comes forth the unbelief, the reasonings, the doubts, the self-justification, the opinions, and the fears that keep a men alienated and fearful to draw near to their Creator and Maker. It is also of this ignorance that keeps those who are carnally minded blinded so that they cannot see the light that reveals the true identity of God’s divine nature as well as the extent of his power and authority. It is this ignorance of God, and of God as the Word, that has kept men in bondage to all of the powers of darkness. It is this divine nature and power that has been kept hidden behind the Words that are sealed; words of grace and truth that are able to free a man from the bondage of his own ignorance. It is for this reason that John wept because he did not believe that there was any creature in heaven or earth that could be found worthy to take the book and remove it’s seals. Only he who was found worthy to take the book, remove it’s seals, and open the book would also be he who would be able to receive all that which was written within: the authority and the power to open the eyes, the ears, and the hearts of the faithful so that they could see, and hear, and hear and perceive the Word of God so that he might know God, and his son Jesus Christ.
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Jeremiah 2:31 O generation! See the word of the Lord…”
John 8:43 Jesus said, “Why can you not understand my speech? Is it not because you cannot hear my word?”
II Corinthians 3:14 “But the minds of the children of Israel were blinded: for until this day remains the same veil untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which veil is done away in Christ. But even until this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their heart. Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.
Matthew 13:10 And the disciples came and asked Jesus, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” He answered and said, “Because it is given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven but to them it is not given. For whosoever has, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance; but whosoever has not, from him shall be taken away even that which he has. Therefore I speak to speak to them in parables: because they seeing do not see; and hearing they do not hear, neither do they understand. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which says, “By hearing you shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see, and shall not perceive. For this people's heart has grown hard, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.
I Corinthians 2:9-12 But as it is written, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for them that love him. But God has revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of man which is in him? Even so, the things of God no man knows, only the Spirit of God. Now we have not received the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God so that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.”
I John 1:1 1That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; for the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and show unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us. That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.
Ephesians 4:17,18 “This I say therefore and testify in the Lord, that you henceforth no longer walk as the other Gentiles walk in the vanity of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them because of the blindness of their heart.”
Acts 17:30 “And the times of this ignorance God winked at, but now commands all men every where to repent.”
Since the fall of Adam, man has been alienated and separated from God through the darkness of ignorance that dwells within him. It is for this reason that no man knows the abundant life that God has prepared for those who love him. But who is able to hear and understand what life is? Man defines abundant life as that which he experiences when things go his way; when he feels like he is in control; when he satisfies his own desires and pleasures; when he feels safe and secure; and when he performs his own will. My life is not like any manner of life found on earth. I am the life that no earthy creature nor any creature in heaven has ever experienced; for I am the only being that has God dwelling within him. He who has me has the Father. I am the way, the truth, and the life. I am the life that those who seek for will find. I am the life that is experienced when God himself dwells in your heart and mind. If you know me, you know Father. My Father and I are one; for I am in the Father, and Father is in me. Is it not written that the Son is equal with the Father; for that which is the Fathers is also the Sons? But who can see and hear these Words?
The darkness has kept man in bondage to it’s ignorance of God, and all things that the life of God consists of. Man has eyes to see, but he is not able to see God, nor to see as God sees, and neither is he able to understand the things of God. Man has ears to hear, but he is not able to understand the truth of the Words of God. Man has a heart, but he has not been able to define the divine nature of the Life of God. When I came into this world, I came to my own, and they did not receive me, but rather despised and rejected me because they had eyes but could not see and ears but could not hear. For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so also is the nature of the life of God above the nature of the life of man. Though you have sought to understand and to know the truth of these things, and though I have allowed for you to taste the life in my heart and the greatness of my power, you still have not yet come into the fullness of this truth; the truth that reveals the divine nature of the life of God.
Philippians 2:5,6 “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God did not think it robbery to be equal with God.”
Psalm 34:8 “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord.”
I John 3:2 “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, but it does not yet appear what we shall; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.”
Even now, your heart has remained veiled and your eyes have scales upon them, keeping hidden the glory of my life from you; but day by day you are drawing closer and closer to the fullness of the time when all these things which are written in the book shall be seen, and heard, and fulfilled. I am now doing a new thing, and all things shall be changed. My life is that new thing. My life that no earthy creature or any creature in heaven has partaken of. Remember, until the fullness of time comes, you are still under the blood that I shed on the cross for you. Let my blood continue to be a witness unto you of the great love that I have for you, as well as a witness of my faithfulness; for I am the faithful and true witness; and I will perform all those things which I am revealing to you. I yearn to fill your heart with Words of truth, Words of life, and the Words of my power. I yearn to fill you with the fullness of me; the fullness of the kingdom that I have won for you. As a bride takes the name of her husband, so also do I yearn to give to you my name: my character, my nature, and my authority. I yearn for your companionship and fellowship. If you can believe, then rest in these words, and let the zeal of God perform all these promises and words for you.
Isaiah 9:6,7 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.”
You have heard that my Word is living and that it is powerful, and though you have tasted of power, you have yet to experience the fullness of this truth yet. Yes, my Word has been unto you as the word of correction; as a hammer that has broken your pride into pieces. Yes, my Word as also been as a sword that has pierced your heart, revealing to you the hidden things of darkness as well as those counsels in your heart that were not of me. Yes, my Word has been to you the truth that has revealed Satan lies to you, so that I might sanctify and separate you from all his unclean and wicked spirits. Yes, my Word has been given to you to increase your faith, to dissolve your doubts, to cast out your fears, your doubts, and your unbelief. In these things, you have asked to see and to hear the truth of my words; and I have opened your eyes and your ears to see and hear the truths that have set you free from your bondage to the darkness of this world.
You have witnessed my faithfulness as you have allowed for me to build up your faith in me so that the gates of hell would not be able to prevail against you; the faith that has allowed for me to protect you so that none of powers of darkness could overthrow you. As you have asked to see the truth of my Words, you have witnessed me freeing you from the miserable thoughts of the carnal mind; from your bondage to think on such things worry, loneliness, hatred, the cares of your life, anxiety, bitterness, hypocrisy, all manner of fears and dread, rebellion, despair, confusion, depression, unbelief, accusations and condemnations of others. You have seen how I have sent unto you the truth of my Words to deliver you from the deceitfulness of your opinions, which you had used to mask the vanity of your ignorance. As you have asked to see these things, I have opened your eyes to see them. But why have you not yet asked for me to open your eyes so that you may see the truth about my life?
As you asked of me, and then witnessed my word coming to you to teach you all knowledge and to give to you all understanding. As you asked to see my words, you have also witnessed my power coming to you to destroy your worldly wisdom and to bring your understanding to nothing. As you have witnessed, when you allow for me to destroy your wisdom, then so also are those fleshy and evil desires destroyed that were birthed out of her. As you have asked of me, you have seen me send the truth of my words to you that have delivered from the snares of false doctrines; the interpretations and counsels of ungodly men. When you have asked of me, you have even witnessed my power of my word coming to destroy the evil works that oppose my will for your life. In your seeking of me, you have seen my faithfulness of my love in the words that I have sent to you, performing great and mighty things for you. Could I have sent my words to you if you had not believed to ask for me to send them to you? If you had asked nothing of me, then what could I have done for you that is beyond nothing?
Isaiah 55:10 “For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and does not return there until it has watered the earth, and makes it to bring forth and bud so that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater; and so shall the Word that goes out of my mouth, it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing that I sent it to perform.”
Matthew 13:58 “And he did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.”
All things must be fulfilled according to my Word so that all things may be of me. For I am Spirit and I am life, and when all things are filled with me all things will be filled with Spirit and life. It is first necessary for me to prepare your hearts and your minds so that you may be willing and ready to receive the fullness of the glory that is of my Spirit and my life. Now hear and understand, it is impossible for the natural heart to receive the blessings of my Spirit; my power, my honor, my wisdom, my strength, my love, my riches, my truth, and the glory that I have won for you. Yes, in your correction I will prepare you to receive the fullness of my Word. In your correction, I will open your eyes, your ears, and your heart so that you see, and understand, and comprehend the life of God. It is of these things that no eye has seen, nor any ear has heard, and neither has any heart been able to perceive. You have not known these blessings because you have not yet asked to see the truth concerning the life of God; yet, you know that it is written that when I will appear to you, you shall see me as I am, and then shall you be changed into my likeness. Now ask me to open your eyes so that you may see the life of God, and then I will reveal this truth to you as you have believed me. No man knows the day or the hour, so be you ready at all times. You know that it is written that new wine cannot be poured into an old wineskin, lest it tear and all spills out on the ground.
John 6:63 Jesus said, “It is the Spirit that makes alive; the flesh profits nothing. The Words that I speak to you, they are Spirit and they are life.”
I John 1:1 “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled of the Word of life; for the life was manifested and we have seen it, and bear witness, and show unto you that eternal life which is with the Father and was manifested to us. That which we have seen and heard we declare to you also so that you have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his son Jesus Christ.”
Matthew 7:13,14 “Enter you in at the strait gate; for wide is gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and go in there because strait is the gate and narrow is the way which leads into life, and few there be that find it.”
John 10:10 Jesus said, “…I have come so that you might have life, and that you might have it abundantly.”
John 14:6 “Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”
You have not asked to see or to hear these things because I have hidden these things until this day; but now is the time appointed that I have chosen to reveal all things that have been hidden. Now is the time appointed for my people to ask for me to open their eyes so that they may see the fullness of Father’s heart, the life of God. For this is the day of the fulfilling of all the promises of my Words. This is the day that my Spirit and my life are coming to fill my Words. This is the day I have chosen to open your eyes to see all things, to open your ears so that you may understand all things, and to open your hearts so that you may perceive all things: I AM all things. Now am I preparing the hearts of all those who desire me. Now is the time that I have appointed to manifest that which many righteous men and prophets have desired to see and to hear but did not see nor hear. Now is the time that I have chosen to exalt my sons. Now is the time that I am ready to manifest I AM in my sons. Blessed are your eyes, for they shall see I AM; and the son shall be like his Father.
I John 3:2 “Brethren, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be; but we know that when he shall appear, we shall see him as he is, and we shall be like him.”
Even so, my Words shall continue to be sealed to the fearful, the disobedient, and the doubtful and unbelieving because they do not seek me, or trust in me, or have any desire to know me. These are they who trust in the seeing of their own wisdom, and delight in the opinions of their own understanding, which by doing they conform me into an image of their own desires. These shall not be able to see the truth of my Word because they have no desire to be compassed with my love. I am the Word, and my Word and I are one. The words that are birthed out of the opinions or reasonings of man are not my Words, but are nothing more than vain words conceived out of vain thoughts that are powerless to change anything or to perform any of my wonderful works. I have veiled the truth to preserve them only for those who diligently seek to know my life. Those who diligently seek for me shall be rewarded when I reveal myself fully to them.
Psalm 94:11 “The Lord knows the thoughts of men that they are vanity.”
Hebrews 11:6 “Without faith it is impossible to please him; for he that comes to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek for him.”
II Peter 1:2-4 “Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, according as his divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that has called us to glory and virtue. Whereby are given to us exceedingly great and precious promises that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.”
Hear now, and understand; in the presence of my truth, there shall no evil thing dwell. I have spoken in parables, in metaphors, in secrets, in visions, in proverbs, in dreams, and in mysteries to keep my truth hidden from the eyes of the disobedient and unbelieving; lest at any time they also see and hear my Words and are made to be partakers of the life of God. I reward only those who diligently seek after me, who desire to know my truth. I am the truth. Have I not instructed for all to seek for me, to seek to know my truth. I am the truth of the Word. But where are they who have believed my words, who have desired to know the truth instead of settling for some vain opinions that twist and pervert my image? It is for this reason that my Words have been sealed, to keep the truth hidden from the eyes, the ears, and the hearts of the proud, the ungodly, and the corrupt, lest they should also be made partakers of the divine nature of the life of God; the divine nature that awaits for all who overcome the world through faith in me. When my Word is unsealed, the truth will come forth as the pure water of the river of life, to finish the work that I have started in you; to perfect your heart and transform the thoughts of your mind.
Matthew 13:34,35 “All these things Jesus spoke to the multitude in parables; and without a parable did he not speak so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet saying, “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.”
John 8:31 Jesus said, “If you continue in my Word, then shall you be my disciples, and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”
Luke 8:17 “For nothing is secret that shall not be manifest; neither anything hid that shall not come abroad. Take heed how you hear (understand)…”
II Corinthians 2:17 “We are not as many which corrupt the Word of God…”
When I brought John in the Spirit, he was not weeping for himself, but for all men. John saw that there was no being in heaven, nor any on the earth, nor any beneath the earth that could be found worthy to take the book and remove the seals from off the Words that were written within. John knew and understood at that time that if the seals were not removed from the Word, then man would forever continue in bondage to the darkness of his own ignorance, and not be allowed to enter into the kingdom of God. John wept because he knew that as long as the book remained sealed, so also would the truth of all things that pertain to the God and his life would remain hidden behind parables, dreams, metaphors, proverbs, visions, and the letter of the word. You know that it is written that eternal life belongs to those who know God; for the true knowledge of God is the entrance into the kingdom of God. I am the Truth. I am the Word. I am the Truth of the Word. God is the Word, and the Word is God. My Father and I are one. I am the truth, and no man can come into my Father’s presence except by me. No man knows the Father except those who I have revealed the truth of my Father to. Only by the revelation knowledge of my truth shall the darkness of your ignorance perish and Satan’s habitation be destroyed. It is not possible for ignorance to inhabit the place where the knowledge of the truth dwells. Satan cannot dwell in the light of my truth, only in the darkness of man’s ignorance. He that sees the truth of my Word sees me. He who sees me also sees my Father. He that sees my Father overcomes the world and is made free from all of the powers of darkness.
I John 3:6 NKJ “…Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.”
III John 11 NKJ “He who does good is of God, but he who does evil has not seen God.”
Ephesians 4:17,18 “This I say therefore and testify in the Lord, that you henceforth no longer walk as other gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.”
John 8:44 “You are of your father the Devil, and the desires of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own (of his own opinions, own reasonings, own understanding); for he is a liar, and the father of it.”
Those who see me, they see that my Word is living; they see that my Word is truth; they see that my Word is powerful, and they see that my Word always accomplishes the purpose that I send it to perform for them. Those who see me see that my Word is able to cleanse them from their sins. Those who see me see that my Word is able to change the desires of their heart as well as transform the thoughts of their mind. Those who see me see that my Word is able to give life to the dead, purging their consciousness from all the dead thoughts of the carnal mind. Those who see me see that my Word is able to scatter all evil from before their eyes. My Word destroys all that profanes, all that corrupts, and all that defiles. My Word brings grace to the sinner, and mercy to the ungodly. My Word cleanses you from all the filth of self-righteousness. My Word is able to purge you of all your iniquities. My Word is able to separate your soul from the spirit of this world. My word makes all things new. My Word is able to perform all things that are impossible for any man to do for himself. By my Word, the hidden things of darkness and the secret counsels of the heart are manifest. By the Word that proceeds forth from my mouth are my people sanctified, made holy, and justified. By my Word, your sins are forgiven and forgotten, never able to come into my mind again. By my Word do the fruits of life spring forth in the hearts of the barren. My Word brings hope to the hopeless. My Word brings love to the unlovable. All the blessings that I desire to give to you, as well as all of my promises that I desire to perform for you, they can only come to you through my Word. John wept because he thought there was none worthy to open the seals to unveil these truths of my Word to the people of God.
I John 1:1-3 NKJ “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life—the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us—that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.”
Jeremiah 2:31 NKJ “O generation, see the Word of the LORD! Have I been a wilderness to Israel, or a land of darkness? Why do My people say, “We are lords; we will come no more to You”? (Because they think they see and understand his words)
Isaiah 43:25 NKJ “I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins.”
Until this time, you have asked, and I have shown to you the Words that have increased your faith and led you down that strait and narrow path that leads to life; but you have yet to see the fullness of the life that awaits you at the end. I have also shown to you the Words that have allowed for you crucify the world that was written in your heart: the world of the lust of the flesh, of the lust of the eyes, and of the pride of your life. Just as it is written, you must first be a partaker of my sufferings before you can be prepared and ready to be a partaker of my resurrection. You must suffer the loss of your citizenship to this world before you can walk in your heavenly citizenship. Only then shall my life be able to manifest in you. The victory has been won, the seals have been opened, and the Words have been unveiled, but who will ask for me to open their eyes so that they may see behold the unsealed Words that unveils the divine nature of Father’s heart?
Matthew 7:13,14 NASB “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.”
Philippians 3:8-11 Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith: that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death; if by any means I might attain to the resurrection of the dead.”
Galatians 6:14,15 NKJ “But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.”
I Corinthians 15:35,36 NKJ “But someone will say, “How are the dead raised up? And with what body do they come?“ Foolish one, what you sow is not made alive unless it dies.”
Those who seek for life are those who ask for it; and those who ask for it are those to whom it shall be freely given. Who will ask to see my Word so that they may see me? Who will ask to see the Words that give life? Who will ask to see the goodness, the desires, and the love that is in Father’s heart? Who will ask to see the life of God? Because of the great love that I have for all, I came into this world and overcame all the evil that is of this world. I overcame all and I won the kingdom of God just for you; but who will allow for me to give them my kingdom? Who will ask to see the glory of that which has been won for you? I have given to you the kingdom of God that I won for you; so why have you not asked for me to open your eyes so that you may see the kingdom that is within you? Ask for me to open your eyes so that you may see the prize of the victory that my love has won for you, I will show it to you. If you do not ask for me to open your eyes, then how shall you escape your captivity to the blindness of your ignorance? Have you asked for me to open your eyes so that you may see and know the life of God; that form of life that is alien to the citizens of this world. You do not have because you have not believed to ask these things.
I John 2:15-16 “Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.”
Galatians 6:24 “And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.”
Do not be deceived, for I am not like a man and neither am I like any of the images that have been formed by the opinions of men. If it were not so, then it not have been necessary for me to have come into this fallen world and overcome it. If I was like unto man, then my crucifixion and resurrection would not have been necessary. No, though I had overcome the world and death, still the victory was not yet. Do you yet know here the victory was? Did not the darkness of ignorance dwelling in my people lead them to crucify me because they did not know that I was the Son of the living God? How then shall a man be able to love, and trust, and honor, walk with, be faithful to, and believe on that which he desires to kill? Would you allow for the darkness of your ignorance to crucify me?
I Corinthians 2:7 “But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery; the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the world for our glory; which none of the princes of this world knew; for had the known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.”
The life that you have been familiar is defined between your beginning and your end, while my life is without either a beginning or an end. What you believe about life is limited because of your natural senses, while that which I believe has no limitations to constrain it because my life is eternal. I think, and it comes to past; I command, and it stands fast forever. What thoughts do you think that you are able to bring to pass without lifting a finger or speaking a word? You love only those who love you; while I love those who love you and all those who do not love you also. My love towards all men is pure, but I am only able to show the favor of my love to those who do not limit me with their doubts and unbelief. Your thoughts are vanity while my thoughts are reality. You judge others while I judge no man. You wonder what meekness really is while I am the very substance of meekness. The glory of man is as the grass that perishes, while my glory is everlasting. Can you perceive the truth of these things that I am speaking to you? Do you understand that when I unveil my Word, then shall you see me as I rally am; and that you shall be changed into my very image? Will you seek for and ask for me to unveil your eyes so that you may see my Words. My Word and I are one; and I yearn for my all of my beloved to be one with me.
I John 3:2,3 “Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be We know that when He appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. And everyone who has this hope fixed on Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.”
Hear, and understand. I came in the likeness of sinful flesh for two purposes. First, so that all men could see with their eyes the great works that my Father’s love and power are able to perform in an earthy vessel that is filled with sinful flesh. For me to overcome the world and gain the victory, it was first necessary for I me to come into the world in the likeness of sinful flesh, subjected to the same desires, the same wills, the same weaknesses, the same ignorance, and the same pleasures that all men are born subject to. I did not overcome any of these things through any wisdom or power of myself but rather it was through faith in my Father's power and belief in his great love for me that I overcame all things. Though sin dwelled in me, it was powerless to overcome the Spirit of my Father or stand against the love that my Father had for me. By the greatness of my Father's love, I was able to receive all of my Father's goodness, all of his power, all of his Spirit, and all of his love. As it was with me, so also is it now, that all those who overcome the world, they will also be able to receive the same blessings that I did, as well as walk in the same power, the same authority, and the same love of God that I did.
John 5:30 Jesus said, “I can, of myself, do nothing…”
Romans 8:3 “For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God sent his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh.”
I John 4:2 Hereby you know the Spirit of God: “Every Spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ come in the flesh (all flesh is sinful) is of God.”
Hebrews 4:14-16 “Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities (weaknesses); but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”
Secondly, I came in the likeness of sinful flesh because it is appointed for all flesh to die once. Without the sentence of death upon me, then I would not have been able to gain entrance into the earth beneath, though by doing so it made it appear as though Satan had gotten the victory. Had I not been able to enter into the earth beneath, then I would not have been able to reveal the truth about the divine nature of our heavenly Father: for he who sees me, sees the Father. Without the gospel of this truth, these saints would have continued in their captivity in the land beneath because they did not know God. As I died on the cross, I first ascended into heaven, and appeared as the Lamb of God that had been slain. And when I was found worthy to take the book and remove the seals thereof, I then received authority to reveal the truth about my Father’s heart to all who would hear and receive him, whether they be upon the earth or beneath the earth. I revealed to them the Words of life: the nature, the character, and the authority of my heavenly Father. By my Words, the souls of the saints of old were set free from their captivity to the land beneath, and many who came out of the land of the dead then walked about Jerusalem for a time. And when I arose on the third day, I was not alone because I was able to bring all of them with me. I am the resurrection and the life", says the Lord.
Matthew 27:52,53 NASB “At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus' resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people.”
Luke 24:45 “Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures (This event occurs after Jesus‘ resurrection and just before his ascension).”
Then I also appeared before my disciples for a time, opening their minds to see and understand the truth of many Words that had been hidden in parables, and metaphors, and proverbs; for I had gained the victory over all the powers and principalities that had kept understanding of scriptures darkened so that no man could see the truth about Father’s heart. I gave to them the Words of life that Peter knew before that were going to be given to him; Words that had been veiled from their eyes. Then on the day of Pentecost, I once again returned to my people as that Spirit of truth, the Spirit that unveils the eyes of the heart and mind so that they could see the Words of God. I returned in the Spirit as the power of God that gives sight to the blind and hearing to the ears, and that sets your heart and mind free from it’s bondage to the darkness of ignorance. Then my disciples began to preach the gospel, expounding on the Words of truth that even the scribes and Pharisees marveled at; and they became my witnesses before all men.
Deuteronomy 29:1-4 NASB “These are the words of the covenant which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the sons of Israel in the land of Moab, besides the covenant which He had made with them at Horeb. And Moses summoned all Israel and said to them, “You have seen all that the LORD did before your eyes in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh and all his servants and all his land; the great trials which your eyes have seen, those great signs and wonders. Yet to this day the LORD has not given you a heart to know, nor eyes to see, nor ears to hear.”
II Corinthians 3:14-17 NKJ “But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ. But even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil lies on their heart. Nevertheless when one turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away. Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”
John 6:66-68 NKJ “From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the Words of eternal life.”
Though you also have perverted my Words with your natural understanding and with your worldly wisdom, be do not be afraid, for I am in this world just as you are now. I also grew in wisdom and knowledge. As my Father taught me, shall I not teach you? I have received from all power and authority from my Father to do so, and you have received my Spirit. Do you believe that I am able to give to you a new heart and a new mind; a heart and a mind where the Spirit of life will be the law of the land? Will you trust me and follow me? Will you humble your hearts and ask for me to give to you the Spirit of life? Again, you have seen my Words how they have already destroyed many old kingdoms, the old principalities, the old powers, the old ways, the old laws, and many of the old strongholds. But will you continue to seek and ask for me to open your eyes so that you may behold the new thing? I am the new thing. I am the new life. I am the life that you have not yet experienced new.
Do you not desire to see the glory of the living God filling your temple? The kingdom of God is coming. The life of God is coming. The glory of God is coming. A new heaven and a new earth is coming. Life is coming to swallow up death. All things are going to be made new. Ask for me to open your eyes to see me; to show you things that have been hidden from the sight of your eyes and from the hearing in your ears. Ask for me to show you the love that I won for you. I am not coming in a manner that natural man will be able to see, but I am coming in a manner that you will surely know. Believe on me, and I will perform all of my Words and all of my promises for you. Ask of me and I will change your heart and your mind, making them both to be beautiful in my sight and in your sight”, says the Lord.
When the Lord finished speaking these words to me, before I even had a chance to consider all that which he had spoken to me, I was instantly taken in the Spirit. In a flash, I suddenly found myself among 100,000,000 heavenly beings; and to say the least, being among this many beings at one time is quite overwhelming in itself, but the fact that they were all heavenly creatures made it even more overwhelming. I do not know how, but I then realized that I was in that moment spoken of in Revelation 5, just before Jesus Christ himself was to appear before the throne of God. The first thing that I really became aware of was the electricity and/or the excitement level that was in each one of these heavenly beings. The only way that I could possibly even attempt to describe the intensity and the excitement level that I felt from each one of these creatures would be to add these two things together. First, the intensity that I felt there was even greater than the intensity that you would feel at championship college football game that is played by two instate rivals, or a like a World Cup soccer match that was played between two rival nations. As I write this, even this explanation seems like a silly attempt to describe this intensity because these games usually only have between 70,000 to 100,000 fans attending them; and here I was among 100,000,000 intensely excited heavenly creatures.
Speaking only for myself, the most excitement that I have experienced in my life was on Christmas eve, when I was between the ages of 5 and 10. I simply could not sleep on those nights because of the anticipation and excitement of the presents that I was going to get the next morning. The build-up to that morning was incredible to me, in that the closer you got to Christmas morning, the more presents I saw going under the tree with my name on them. So what made that anticipation for Christmas morning to be so exciting was that I knew, without any doubt, that I was going to get a lot of presents because I could clearly see them all wrapped up with my name on them. I would say that between the ages of 5 and 10, my excitement level was so high that I never got more than a couple of hours of sleep. While each one of these heavenly beings was filled with even greater intensity and excitement, it was also accompanied with this great joy, like they already knew that their team had won; that the victory was secured, even before the game played itself out. It was at this moment that I became aware that I was present for what I believe to be “the greatest event that will ever occur throughout all of eternity”.
I then became aware that we were all like standing as if we were all in a very large and tall circular coliseum or stadium, but there was no physical stadium. I felt as though my physical position was about half way up, but somehow the eyes of my consciousness was somehow sitting on the very front row. When I looked to my left, I saw the heavenly Father sitting on his throne, but for some strange reason, no one, including myself, seemed to be giving him any attention, but rather the eyes of us all was focused on this small open area that was right before Father’s throne. This open area was circular and it was only about 10 feet in diameter. Just outside of this open area is where the stadium effect began; and it is impossible for me to describe how 100,000,000 creatures could all be focused on such a small area, but we were. Can you imagine the drama of seeing all of these creatures pressed in and ascending up as far as eyes can see, and all their eyes were focused on this small space before the throne of God? It is not possible to describe the drama that I felt that was unfolding before me, knowing that at any moment, all of us who were there were about to witness an event that no creature in heaven, nor any creature on the earth, and that no creature beneath the earth, had ever been found worthy to do, to take this book from off of Almighty God’s lap, and then remove the seals that had been put upon it by the power of God. I then perceived that this is where the victory was going to be found, that Jesus was going to be able to do that which no one before him, neither angel or man, had ever been found worthy to do.
Then suddenly, without me even realizing where he even came from, the Lamb who was slain was standing before the throne of God, to my right. It is not possible for me to describe to you what I actually saw before me because the form that Jesus appeared in had to be the very form that he had when he died on the cross: a form so disfigured and so bloodied that it could hardly be recognized at all to be that of a man. If someone asked for me to describe Jesus’ physical appearance from what I saw at that moment would be impossible. To be honest with you, I found it strange to see Jesus appear before his holy Father in this manner because I was not actually expecting to see him as the lamb that was slain…filthy dirty, naked, bloodied from head to toe, skin hanging off him like he had been peeled, great wounds from the scourging, the beatings, and of course, from the crucifixion itself. Sometimes the vanity of my own thoughts really surprise me because when I first saw Jesus standing before God in this fashion, my first thought was not about how much Jesus must have suffered, but it was how foolish man thinks that he must “dress up” or clean himself up before he can even go into the house of the Lord because here I was before the throne of God, and before us all is the most grotesque figure of man I have ever seen. Yet, God was not offended in the least little manner. What made this even more amazing to me was to know that if Jesus had appeared in this same physical manner before a group of humans, even Christians, they would all have undoubtedly been offended in some manner or another. Yet, there was not one gasp or one look of surprise on Father’s face or on any one of these 100,000,000 creatures; for everyone continued in the same joy and excitement as they had. I then felt like I was the only creature there that was even aware of how Jesus appeared outwardly.
Again, I think that it would be hard for anyone to imagine the greatness of the drama that was playing out before my very eyes, not only seeing Jesus but also observing the faces of these 100,000,000 creatures who had been excitingly waiting and waiting to see that which had never been witnessed before. But then I saw that which I will never forget, the most incredible thing of all, and it took place the moment that Jesus walked over to stand before his heavenly Father; for the love, the compassion, the thankfulness, and the joy that was in the heavenly Father's face as he gazed upon the face of his Son was indescribable; and the same love, and thankfulness, and joy was also in the Son's face. But it was their eyes, how they each looked on one another, that completely defined the moment; the look of the love and adoration that was in their eyes as they looked at each other. Then I heard the only words that were audibly spoken between the two when I heard Jesus say to his Father, “We did it”. I then remembered how Jesus had previously told me that he overcame all things through his faith in the power of God and his belief in his Father’s love; and now I was witnessing that very love right before my own eyes. It is for sure that I have never witnessed any such love as this in any love story or even in a fairy tale. I then witnessed Jesus reaching over and taking the book that had been resting in Father’s lap, and Father offered no resistance whatsoever. As Jesus began to open the seals, all 100,000,000 creatures began singing and praising the him repeatedly saying, “Worthy is the Lamb that slain, worthy is the Lamb to receive power, and blessings, and honor, and riches, and strength, and glory”. Then just as quickly as I appeared there, I found myself just as quickly to be back in my own body. At that moment, I did not get to physically see what Jesus might look after he was glorified with the power, the blessings, the honor, the riches, the strength, and the glory that flowed out of the Words written into that book into Jesus. I just knew that it had to be really awesome.
When I sat down and tried to write all these things which I had seen and heard, I felt that the Spirit of the Lord directed me to use a style of writing that I am not at all familiar with; to write and describe these events as though I had actually been in a fairy tale. Well, I can never recall my mother, or anyone else, reading a fairy tale to me; and the only ones that I knew were the Disney versions of “Snow White” and “Sleeping Beauty” that I saw when I was a kid. The Lord then confirmed for me to write in this manner when he then spoke to me and said, “Of all the stories that have been written, only fairy tales have endings that say, “And they lived happily together forever and ever”. Is this not the ending that all men wish that they could be partakers of? Do you not think that those who allow for me to rescue them, that we shall not live happily together forever and ever? Just like in fairy tales, my ending is only the beginning of the “happily ever after”. Do you think that any fairy tale can have an ending/beginning like the one that I have prepared for my people, seeing that my ending/beginning far exceeds anything that a man can image in his thoughts? Write these things that you have seen and heard as though it was the greatest story ever told; for my story is fiction to those who do not believe, but for those who will believe, they will experience an ending/beginning that far exceeds anything that they could have hoped for”, says the Lord.
I think that most people are like I am, in that the only time that we have ever really heard of a prince coming to the rescue of his beloved princess was only after she had taken captive or was in distress. All of these types of stories seem to be either a fictional, or a fables, or fantasies that could only occur in our own imaginations, and certainly not in real life. I cannot remember any fairy tale story in my life because everyone dies. I know that at sometimes or another, if not many times, we have all been in some circumstances or situations that we wish we had some mystical prince or superhero that would come to our rescue. I may not yet completely understand all that which I witnessed of Revelation 5, but I know that after seeing the love that I saw beaming out of Father’s eyes and face, and same love beaming out of his Son’s eyes and face, that I am now completely convinced that we have a superhero in heaven, and that our ending/ beginning is truly going to far exceed anything that any of us could imagine. With this one visitation, I am now fully persuaded that we have a Lord who loves us so much that he will go to any lengths to save us, to heal us, to lead, to help us, to teach us, to forgive us, to provide for us, or to deliver us out of any distress or trouble that may come upon us. Surely, at one time or another, have we not all had the desire to be either be the prince or the princess written of in these fables?
As I was thinking on how many times that I have desired for someone to come and rescue me in the times of my distress and troubles, the Spirit of the Lord quickened several verses to me: First that which is written in Psalm 107:13 “Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of all of their distresses”. Then that which is written in Psalm 34:4 “I sought the Lord and he heard me, and delivered me from all of my fears.” And finally that which is written in I Peter 5:7 NIV “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.” I then realized that we do have a superhero in God, and that his love for us is no fable at all; but he is love for us is rendered useless unless we believe on his love for us. According to these verses of scripture, his love is not for some appointed time to come in the future, but he loves all of us right now. We truly do have a prince or a superhero that is willing to rescue us today because each one of us is truly the object of his affection. Does not the prince also love his princess so much that he is more than willing to battle dragons and witches, as well as all of the powers of darkness that he may encounter to that he might rescue his love from her peril? Is it not written in Ephesians 6:10 “Be strong in the Lord and in the power of “his might…for we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against powers and principalities, against rulers of darkness and wicked spirits in high places”? But who will allow the Lord to love them? Who will allow the Lord to be strength for them and to show his power when he is engaged in such battles as these, seeing that Jesus alone is he who has triumphed over all of these enemies?
I was now beginning to perceive that what the Lord had spoken to me, as well as all that which I had just witnessed, it is somehow a love story that is far greater than anything that I could grasp the depth of; a story not only about the love between Father and Jesus, but also a story about the love that Father/Jesus has for his church/bride, seeing that everything that Jesus did was because of his love for us. In some of these fairy tales, you find a Prince that is so madly in love with a princess that he will do whatever it takes to rescue or save her. But these princes only have a love for one woman, while Jesus has a not only has a greater love, but a love that is for all men; and none of us, not one, has any kind of natural affection for him. It is one thing to go and rescue the princess that loves you, it is another thing to go and rescue the princess that does not know you or love you. How can we understand such a great love? In truth, is not the real prince the Prince of Peace? Is not the love of his life, the object of all of his affection, his bride the church? Is this then not a love story that not only crosses the boundaries of earth and heaven, but across all of eternity?
So in truth, has not our Lord, the Prince of Peace, set out to do whatever it takes to win his bride back from all the powers of darkness that have kept her in bondage to all of the lies that have kept her captive to such things as the unclean and wicked spirits of fear and dread; spirits that daily tormented her life. Has she not been held captive in great distress to such thoughts of worry, bitterness, depression, unforgiveness, stress, confusion, self-condemnation, loneliness, anxieties, and despair? So when the Prince considered the journey and the ordeal that laid before him, was not the length that he was willing to go for his bride then measured by the greatness of the love that he has for her? Recognizing that if he is going to rescue his bride, and also win her love, would it not then be necessary for him to first disguise himself just to be able to gain an entrance to her; that is, to appear as though he is just like one of us? Just like the prince in the fairy tales, there is no distance nor is there any obstacle that he even considers to be so great that he is not willing to travel or endure; caring not how many dragons, or how many wicked spirits, or how many evil powers, or ungodly principalities, or how many rulers of the darkness that he may encounter and engage along the way; for because of the passion of the love that burns within his heart for her, he is more than willing to take on all comers for his beloved bride. Yes, the prince in the fables, he is willing to fight dragons and travel distant lands for his beloved, but this is where the fables end, and the true story continues on.
In the fairy tale, the princess, the damsel in distress, is always waiting to be rescued by her beloved prince. But in truth, most of the church/bride is not waiting to be rescued by her Prince at all because she is not even aware of what here captivity is or the bondage that she needs to be rescued from; for the princess has been deceived and brainwashed, believing that the lies of her captor are the truth. The Prince knows that when his love sees him, that she is not going to see or find anything about him that will attract her to him. In fact, he knows that it is going to be quite different than that which is written in the fairy tales; for his beloved is going to despise him, reject him, ignore him, persecute him, mock him, refuse him, and possibly even hate him at times. The Prince knows that his princess has no love for him in her heart, nor does she trust any of his promises, and neither does she believe any of the words that he has spoken to her. Nevertheless, for the great love that the Prince has for his bride, he is not only willing to travel distant lands, battle all the forces of darkness, but he is also willing to suffer rejection and scorn from the hand of his very bride that he loves so much. He even knows that when he manifests his name and his power before her, that this will still not be enough to win her heart. Yet, he is still willing to exhaust all until he has won the love of his heart. He knows that no matter what he does, the Prince of Darkness will also come afterwards to tempt and seduce her with vain lies until she is even deceived into believing that her enemy is the Prince who loves her. Then she will not only reject the courtship of the Prince’s love, but she will even mock and persecute him. Then, by reason of the same lies that the Prince of Darkness seduced her with, she will slay her beloved prince by her own hand. As it was then, so also is it now.
Jeremiah 5:30,31 NIV “A horrible and shocking thing has happened in the land: the prophets prophesy lies, the priests rule by their own authority, and my people love it this way. But what will you do in the end?”
Isaiah 39:9-11 NKJ “That this is a rebellious people, lying children. Children who will not hear the law of the LORD; who say to the seers, “Do not see,” And to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us right things; Speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits. Get out of the way, turn aside from the path, and cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from before us.”
In all of his pursuit to win his bride, the Prince himself faced many trials and temptations; for he was tempted in all things pertaining to this life just as we are, but he did not sin once in turning his love away from his bride nor from turning his love away from his heavenly Father, the King who heaven. But when his Father saw how his Son was treated and all that had been endured and done in his attempts to win the heart of his beloved, he then sent forth his own power to kiss the lips of his slain Son, to breathe life back into him. And when he had raised him from the dead, he brought him back before his own throne. And when the King examined his Prince, he saw before him one who had been rejected, one who had been openly put to shame, one who was accounted as a nothing, one who had suffered greatly, one who had been mocked and ridiculed, one who was neither regarded or esteemed, and one who was so heartbroken with grief that he passed the point of unthinkable agony. The King saw that his Prince had suffered and endured all these things from the hands of those he had called his own. He also saw his Son as an innocent lamb who had sacrificed himself so greatly only to have his beloved despitefully refuse him. This is he who was willing to not only rescue her, but to also give to her all his kingdom and glory. This is he who had come out of glory to disguise himself in the likeness of sinful flesh, just so that he might have the opportunity to win his beloved’s heart.
Hebrews 4:15 “For we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our weaknesses; but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.”
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you so that in me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
And when the Son stood before his Father‘s throne, clothed in the garments of rejection and scorn that were patterned with stains of blood and filth, he said to his Father the King, “Father, be merciful, for she has been deceived and is not aware of any of these things that she has done to me, nor the things that I have done to win her freedom and her heart. Forgive her and be merciful to her, for she is still the love of my heart”. When the King heard these words and remembered all that his Son the Prince had battled against, all that he had endured, all that he had journeyed through, all that he had suffered, and all that he had overcome in his attempt to win the heart of his beloved, at whose very hand he was even slain by, the King then said, “My heart greatly rejoices for the love that you have proved to be in your heart for your beloved, seeing that there was no amount of rejection, or scorn, or shame, or threats, or sufferings, or persecution, or beatings, or cursing, and not even death itself that was able to cause you to waver or to turn from her. Therefore, he who is standing before me is without any fault, without spot, and neither is there any blame in his heart; for his love towards his bride is pure. Can there be any greater love that one can have for another than the love that is willing to endure all things, bear all things, suffer all things, and even lose all of his dignity as that which my Son has done for his beloved? Has he not laid down his life completely for her? Because of the greatness of the love that you have for your beloved, I now give to you the victory that you have so desired. Because of the greatness of your love for man, as well as the love you have for me, I will now complete the victory.
I Corinthians 13:4-10 “Love suffers long, and is kind; love does not envy; love exalts not itself, and it is not puffed up. Love does not behave itself unseemly, and it seeks not her own. Love is not easily provoked nor does it think evil. Love does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. Where there are prophecies, they shall fail; where there are tongues, they shall cease; where there is knowledge, it shall vanish away. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part, but when that which is perfect is comes, then that which is in part shall be done away.”
Then the King then removed his hand from off of the book and said to his Son, “I now give to you the victory. You are worthy to take this book and to lose the seals from off it. For in this book are the Words of Life: Words that have power to redeem the heart of your beloved from the lies that she has been seduced to believe. Words that have the power to win your beloved’s heart; for these are the Words of truth that will set her free from all the curses that have blinded her eyes. These are my Words, unveiled, powerful and living Words that can give life to all. These are Words that can break into pieces the lies that your bride has been held captive to believe. These are the Words of life that will free your bride from all of her captivity to sin and death”. Then all the host of heaven fell upon their faces and worshipped the Lamb, for by his great love, he who was found worthy to win that which no man had ever won before, the power and the kingdom that will be able to win the hearts and the minds of man whom God himself has loved. And they sung a new song, a song that could not have been sung before, saying, “Worthy is the Lamb who took the book and opened the seals thereof. Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive the glory, and the might, and the honor, and the power, and the blessings, and the strength, and the wisdom that are written within. Worthy is the Lamb to receive all that which is written in the book.”
Then the Lamb who was slain took the book and opened it, and all of Words of the glory of God, the Words of the power of God, the Words of the will of God, the Words of the love of God, the Words of the Blessings of God, the Words of the Wisdom of God, and the Words of the life of God came rushing forth as a mighty river, and they flowed into the mouth of the Lamb. He opened his mouth and was filled with the fullness of God. And all the heavenly creatures continued bowing before the Lamb, praising God and glorifying his Son. It was not the cross that gave the Prince the victory, though the cross is surely a witness of his love; and neither was it the resurrection from the dead that gave him the victory, though the resurrection was a witness of his Father’s love, but rather the victory was made complete when his love for the people and his love for his heavenly Father was pure. It was then that he was accounted worthy to take the book and remove it’s seals. It was his love that gained him the victory; and the victory that he won is that which awaits for all those who also overcome the world through the faith that stands in the power and love of God that is in Jesus Christ. Only perfect love could have endured and triumphed over all the trials and temptations that Jesus encountered.
By no other means could his bride be freed from her captivity except by his love and his Father’s power. By no other means could she have escaped the terrible end that was awaiting her except through his love and his Father’s power. By no other means could he have endured the cross except by his love and his Father’s power. By no other means could her heart be won except by his love and his Father’s power. If it were not for his love, there would never have been any hope to escape the curses of this present evil world. And if Jesus had not already done enough, he was then transformed into the Spirit of the Lord so that he could return and enter into the hearts and the minds of all those who would receive and believe on him. He became that Spirit of Life that comes to win the hearts of his beloved, to set her free from seducing lies that have kept her in bondage to the blindness of her ignorance.
II Corinthians 3:17 NIV “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
Romans 8:2 NKJ “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.”
It will not be until his beloved fully comes to understand the great love that her Prince has for her before she will surrender and allow for her heart to be won. Only by allowing for her Prince to open the eyes of her heart to see his heart shall she be able to see that she is the object of his affection. Then shall the bride continue faithful to her Prince: trusting on him that through his love and his great power, she shall be delivered, she shall be redeemed, she shall be taught all truth, she shall be forgiven, she shall be healed, she shall be changed, she shall be exalted, and she shall receive the kingdom that her Prince won for her. For he has come to rescue her from death with the words of life. She now eagerly awaits for her Prince to come and fulfill all the promises of his love.
Now, the Prince is about to return again to the world that rejected and slew him; and like any good prince who comes to the rescue of his beloved princess, he will surely be riding in on a white horse. He is coming for his bride; she who allowed her heart to be won by his love. He is going to receive his bride unto himself, the love of his life. And with the sword of his words, he is going to destroy all the powers, the principalities, and the rulers of the darkness that have kept her in bondage. He is going to cast out all the wicked spirits that continually tried to haunt the castle of her heart. He is going to avenge his bride and rescue her. Then shall there be a great celebration feast in her honor; a feast so great that no man could ever imagine the likes thereof. Then the Prince is going to give unto his bride all that he had won for her; his kingdom, his power, his riches, his wisdom, his strength, his honor, his life, his glory, his blessings, and his name. He has become to her the Prince who truly rides in on a white horse to save her. Then she shall receive the reward she has desired to have; a happy ending/beginning with love everlasting. To those who are of this world, who do not believe, eternal life is nothing more than a fable that ends before it ever begins; but to those who do believe on the Lord Jesus Christ to be their Prince, they shall receive “The beginning that never was and the end that never comes”.
It was then that the Spirit ceased speaking, and again, like so many times before, I sat in my seat simply overwhelmed and dazed at all that the Lord had just quickened to me. I am a 60 year old contractor, and I have never written or even read love stories; so it was quite a new experience for me to write these words, and I sure hope that I have clearly written and plainly testified of all that which I experienced so that it is encourages and edifies your faith. I myself feel like I had entered into a realm that I had never had any perception before this encounter; for truly, my own understanding of the scriptures could have never revealed such an incredible story as this. When the Lord quickened to me to believe that which is written in Jeremiah 33:3 “Call upon me and I will show you great and mighty things that you do not know”, I starting call on him and I had no idea that the Lord was going to show me that the great thing that I did not know was the greatness of the love that he has for each one of us, now was I truly aware of the great lengths that he go to prove his love for those who believe to ask him to do so.
Malachi 3:10-12 NASB “Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test (prove; try) Me now in this," says the LORD of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows. Then I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of the ground; nor will your vine in the field cast its grapes," says the LORD of hosts. All the nations will call you blessed, for you shall be a delightful land," says the LORD of hosts.
Surely, I had believed that the victory was won when Jesus Christ died on the cross for us, but the reality of what he had done had never really entered my heart until this encounter was over. I then wept at this reality of his love as it entered into my heart. He did all these things just to win the opportunity to win my love, as well as the love of all will have him. I know that from this moment that I will never be able to look at my brethren, or any other man, as I had before, knowing now the full extent of what Jesus went through and what he is now willing to do for all of us. Sadly, it will only become effectual for those who come to know and to believe on him. With this one encounter, my whole perception of who Jesus Christ was/is has changed; for I found no religion in this story, only love. In fact, the Lord later said to me, “Mitt, all of the theology that you will ever need to know is the love that is in my heart.”
I have come to know the truth of that which Paul spoke of in Ephesians 3:17-19 “And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge so that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God”. There is no height, or depth, or width, or length that can be used to measure the love of God; for how can the love of God, that which has no boundaries or limits be measured? I have seen sin exalting itself in my own heart so greatly that there was a time that I almost believed that it would exceed the grace of Father’s love, but I was wrong. If I had not seen how great this sin was within me, then I could have never learned the truth about his love, that when sin abounds, the grace of his love abounds even greater. The Lord has won my heart not only with that which he did for us at he cross, but with proving his love for me by opening the windows of heaven and pouring out blessings which I cannot contain.
As I continued to meditate on these things, the Lord again spoke to me and said, “I have given my all for you, but are you willing to give your all for me?” I answered, “Yes, Lord. What I have, I freely offer unto you, for I know that what I give unto you, I am going to receive you in return for it. I offer to you all of my life Lord, so that I might receive all of your life. Amen”. Then at that moment, I became greatly humbled and ashamed, for I saw clearly that I had been his love all along, but I had not believed, nor trusted, nor loved that which had been given to me. I then felt compelled to bow my knee and acknowledge, “Truly Lord, my thoughts are not your thoughts, and neither is my heart as your heart. Forgive me, Lord. But Lord, I offer to you my thoughts and my heart so that I might receive your thoughts and your heart”.
I thought that I had a great desire to know the truth before, but now I see that the desire that I had was really only a desire for some kind of intellectual knowledge. Even as great as that desire was, it now pales in comparison to the desire that is now in my heart to Father‘s love. I now know that if you cannot define what he perfect love of God is, then what knowledge do you have? I now know that in this world of illusions, where lies can appear as truth, where the way to death can seem like the right path to follow, where evil can appear as good, and where opinions can be mistaken for true knowledge, that there is only one truth, and that truth is Jesus. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. Jesus is that Spirit of truth that reveals the love that God has for us. God is I AM; and I AM is existent. I AM is love; and only those who know his love can come into this truth. All else is an illusion. I do not know what awaits me tomorrow, or what may rise up in my path, but I now know that the love of the Lord is going with me today and into tomorrow. I now know that the love of God would have no other thought to be in me other than to know that his love will accompany me in my trials, my afflictions, my troubles, my temptations, and in whatever powers of darkness that I may encounter in my journey with him. I am now willing to let him have mine, regardless of what mine may consist of, so that I might receive all that which his love has won for me.
A friend once shared a vision with me that the Lord gave to him when he was facing what he felt like was an impossible situation. He was greatly troubled because his business was failing and he was trying to decide whether to declare bankruptcy or not. In the midst of his confusion, the Lord blessed him with the faith to turn to the Lord and ask him to lead him according to his will. The Lord then gave him a vision; and in the vision he saw a giant that appeared to be much bigger and greater than Goliath. And this giant had a t-shirt on; and on written across the chest area of that t-shirt was the word “BANKRUPTCY”. In other words, his fears were prophesying the worst case scenario was surely going to happen. My friend said that all that his eyes could see in this vision was that intimidating and threatening giant. So, still in the vision, he called out on the name of the Lord, asking for his help. Then his eyes were opened to see the Lord, and that he was standing directly behind Goliath. He then said that he saw that the top of this giant’s head was not even able to come up to the top of God’s big toe. Suddenly, all of his fears, with the fruits of anxiety, confusion, worry, helplessness, insecurity, and stress just melted away, and the peace of God came in and filled all of the thoughts of his heart and mind; the peace that passes all understanding when one knows and believes in his heart that the Lord is completely in control over their lives. When all of his fears and dreads had departed from his thinking, a sound mind was restored unto him. Then the Lord led him one step and one day at a time through this situation that seemed impossible; and his company was also restored without him having to declare bankruptcy.
If we see the circumstances and situations in our life through the eyes of fear, then the principals of fear is that which is going to dictate to us that we should respond to our circumstances and situations according to that which is right in the sight of the spirit of fear. But if we allow the Lord to open our eyes to see his love, then his love and care for us is that which will determine the outcome of that situation or circumstance. that which fear sees to be the right and good thing for us to do. I was thinking on this vision that my friend had when the Lord suddenly gave to me vision that was almost identical to his. I saw this same giant, but in my vision he had written across his shirt the words. “I AM going to destroy, and steal, and kill you”, as though he was God himself and what he said was surely going to be the outcome. But then, just like in my friend’s vision, I saw God standing behind this giant, and when I looked up, I saw that he was waving a banner like one that you would see waved at football games from years past, and on that banner was written the words. “I Love You”. Then the Lord said to me, “If you will believe that my banner over you is love, then there will be no length to the blessings and the good things that I will do for you, regardless of what your adversary may say. He is liar, and the father of all lies. I love you: period.” Glory be to God.
Song of Solomon 2:4 NASB “He has brought me to his banquet hall, and his banner over me is love.”
Chapter 11
“Can you see me? I am the invisible belief that allows for the great and mighty works of God to be made visible.”
We were gathered together one morning in prayer when all of sudden I felt a pressure building up in my head just like the pressure that you would feel when you drive up into the mountains or like that which you experience when you are on a plane that has just taken off, rising up through the clouds. I immediately opened my mouth as wide as I possibly could so as to allow my ears to pop to relieve the pressure, but nothing happened.
I then remembered that this same thing had happened in one of our meetings just about a week before, and when we asked the Lord what it was, he told us that he was changing the atmosphere. I really had no clue as to what the Lord meant by this so I asked him and this is what he answered. “I am taking you higher into my thinking and deeper into my heart”. When I spoke this word to the others that were praying with me, the Lord then quickened to one of them that not only will a person feel this type of pressure in their head when they are traveling up higher into the atmosphere, but so also will he feel the same type of pressure build up when dives or swims deeper in a body a water.
Isaiah 55:8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways”, says the Lord. “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways and my thoughts higher than your ways and your thoughts.”
It is as it is written that our thoughts are not as God’s thoughts, and neither are the desires and affections of our heart like the desires and affections in Father’s heart; but the Lord has promised us that he would give us a new heart and new mind wherein we would be made like unto him. Then the Lord said to us, “Love thinks no evil. Love does not think evil of any man, and neither does love think fearful, or bitter, or unbelieving, or worrisome, or doubtful, or hateful, or confusing, or slanderous, or anxious, or sinful, or disappointing, or unfaithful thoughts. I am love. Just as a man is as he thinks, so also am I what I think. I AM love and I think only as love thinks. I am holy because all of my thoughts are holy. My thoughts are not your thoughts, and my love is not as your love; for as high as the heavens are above the earth are my thoughts and my love above your thoughts and your love. Now commit this work into my hands, and I will take you higher into my thinking. I will establish my thoughts in you. As I am love, so shall you be as my love. Love thinks no evil; and you will think no evil because I AM will be in you; and I AM is love. You will be as I Am. My love is I Am.”
O Lord, as your word is, so let it be done unto us!

I Corinthians 8:2 “And if any man thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing as he ought to know.”
Philippians 2:5 “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God.”
Proverbs 16:3 “Commit thy work unto the Lord and your thoughts shall be established.”
Matthew 9:29 Jesus said, “…according to your faith, so let it be done unto you.”
The Lord began to give me this word in late May 2008, shortly after I had returned from my first visit to the “Outpouring in Lakeland, Florida.” There have been many moves of the Spirit, but this one was the only one that the Lord has ever led me to attend. I made two trips to Lakeland, and while I was there the first time, Todd Bentley spoke this word out: “The Lord is healing someone of a hip problem”. Until that night, I had a degenerative hip problem that I have had for the past 8 to 10 years; the very same problem that leads some to get hip replacement surgery. When the Lord led me to go to Lakeland, I perceived that there was going to be a move of his Spirit that he wanted me to see. I had grown so accustomed to my bad hips being a part of my life that when Todd called out the hip problem, it did not even occur to me that I could be that person. My hip problem was so bad that hip joints always burned, and for some reason, I hardly had any feeling in my feet. I could walk barefooted outside in freezing temperatures, and my feet would hardly get cold at all. So I am just sitting there, and suddenly I felt like these cool winds blowing on my hips, and my first thought was that the air-conditioning had just come on. I then looked up at the ceiling to see if could see the vents where this cool air was coming from, and I saw none. When this cool air quit blowing on my hips, the burning that was in my hips was gone, and it was then that I realized that the Lord had just healed me. That has now been at least 14 months ago, I have not since had any problems with my hips. In fact, this past winter was the first winter in many years that my feet got cold. This was the first time that I had ever received any kind of physical healing from the Lord, though he has healed me of many, many matters that were in my heart.
I also took a second trip to Lakeland, and between the two visits, I witnessed with my own eyes Father’s love moving and performing many healings, restorations, and deliverances. Not once did I witness anyone being asked about their faith, or their background, or their genealogy. It was almost just as it was when Jesus did these things; for the Lord just delights in those who come to him by faith. Even though this was my first time attending a move of God like that which happened in Lakeland, I had no doubts the Lord was doing something there than in the other moves that I had heard of. So when I got back home, I sought the Lord asking him to show me what he was really doing in Lakeland. Then the Lord said to me: “Judgment has now begun in the house of the God”. I then asked: “Judgment? What kind of judgment, Lord?” Then the Lord brought to my remembrance all that I had witnessed him do while I was in Lakeland, as well as all that which I witnessed while watching this when outpouring on God TV; but in all of these remembrances, I could not think of a single thing that I would call “the judgment of the Lord”. Then the Lord said, “Where are my prophets and my apostles who understand judgment, seeing that this is the hour that I have appointed to judge my house? This is the hour that I am going to judge my people, from the least to the greatest. I am going to judge them on how they see; for it is how a man sees that determines what he believes. This is hour that I am going to judge the sins of doubtful, the fearful, and the unbelieving; and if they will turn to me, then I will open their eyes and grant them repentance so that they may believe only on me. Now, did you see me judging the doubts and the unbelief of many in Lakeland, even in your ownself?
John 9:39 NASB “And Jesus said, “For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind.” Those of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these things and said to Him, “We are not blind too, are we?” Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but since you say, “We see”, your sin remains.”
John 16:8,9 NKJ “And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: of sin, because they do not believe in Me.”
Romans 14:23 NKJ “…for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.”
John 4:48 NASB “So Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you simply will not believe.”
John 20:25 NKJ “The other disciples therefore said to him (Thomas), “We have seen the Lord.” So he said to them, “Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe.”
Proverbs 28:5 “Evil men do not understand judgment, but those who seek the Lord understand all things.”
Jeremiah 8:7 “Yea, the stork in the heaven knows her appointed times; and the turtle and the crane and the swallow observe the time of their coming; but my people know not the judgment of the Lord.”
Psalm 9:16 “The Lord is known through the judgment he executes; the wicked is snared in the works of his own hands. Higgaion (meditation). Selah (consider).
Acts 17:31 “He has appointed a day in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he has ordained; whereof he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.”
Do you see me? This is the hour of the “Revelation of Jesus Christ”; the revelation that is going to judge my church. Do you see me? Did you see me in Lakeland? Did you believe on me? I am the Stone of Stumbling and the Rock of Offense; I am the stone that the proud stumble over and I am the Rock that offends the self-righteous. This is the hour that the proud are going to fall and the self-righteous are going to be made blind. This is the hour that many are going to stumble and be offended at my revelation. This is the hour that the unbelieving are going to scoff at. This is the hour that the unfaithful shall despise. This is the hour that the hearts of the fearful shall faint. So also is this the hour that many will repent and shall cast away all their unbelief, their doubts, their pride, and their fears. This is hour that many shall repent of all that which they have believed on and trusted in that was not of me: their time honored traditions; their doctrines that have been established on men’s opinions of the scriptures; the works of hypocrisy; the old laws that have been annulled; the commandments of men; their trust and security in wealth and money; and all those vain lies that have exalted men instead of God. This is the hour that the proud and the self-righteous are going to be offended when they see they cannot direct or control God. This is the hour that none of these abominations shall be able to help or to save.
Romans 9:33-10:1 “As it is written, “Behold, I lay in Zion a stumblingstone and rock of offense: and whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.”
1 Peter 2:7-8 “Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which are disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner; and a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient unto that which they was appointed for them.”
I AM, and I am not at all like unto the idols of men’s opinions; opinions that have been formed to change me into images that satisfy their own desires of who they want me to be for them. Those who worship idols are those who are not faithful to me and neither can they believe on me. Many are going to be offended in this hour when they see that I am not coming in the manner that they have expected me to come. Did I come to the Jews in the manner that they were expecting? Did I bring fire down from heaven to destroy the Samaritans as John and James were expecting me to? Yes, I am coming with fire, and I am coming to judge because I am coming to separate my people from all sin. As I have told you, the revelation of Jesus Christ is that which brings an end to Daniel’s 70 weeks; the end of sin and the bringing in of a new heavens and a new earth wherein righteousness dwells. All things are possible for those who believe because there is no sin in the heart of those who believe. Do you see me? Do you know me? This is the hour that I alone will be exalted.
Isaiah 2:11 NASB “The proud look of man will be abased and the loftiness of man will be humbled, and the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.”
Romans 21:25 NASB “For even though they knew God, they did not honor Him as God or give thanks, but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the incorruptible God for an image in the form of corruptible man and of birds and four-footed animals and crawling creatures. Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them. For they exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.”
Daniel 9:24 NASB “Seventy weeks have been decreed for your people and your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sin, to make atonement for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy and to anoint the most holy place.”
I John 3:6 NASB “No one who abides in Him sins; no one who sins has seen Him or knows Him.”
III John 11 NASB “…The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.”
II Peter 3:13 NASB But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
You know that God says, “There are none who are righteous; no, not one”. Even so, you live in a heaven and earth where the darkness rules; and where the darkness rules, the eyes of men are blinded so that they see and believe that all their own ways are right. How a man sees in his heart determines that which he believes to be right. Is it not written that Father says that your ways are not his ways? So then, because of my Father’s love for you, he sent me to you. I am the way. I am the way into Father’s heart. My ways are right because I allowed for my Father’s way to be my ways. My Father and I are one. Righteousness belongs only to God, and I am the only begotten Son of God. My ways are righteous because I came forth from God. When you see his ways, then you will see me and believe that I came forth from God. I am The One; I am The One that God made to be righteousness for you. The faith that you put in Father’s love, you do so because I am that faith in you. That which you believe Father will do for you, you do so because I am that belief in you. The hope that you have of seeing God fulfilling his promises for you, you have because I am that hope in you. I am the righteousness of belief and faith. I am the belief and faith that accounts you to be righteous in the sight of God. I am the righteousness that reconciles you to God. That which you believe is that which makes you to be one with Father though me. My Father and I are one. Whatever you believe that Father will do for you, you believe because I am that belief dwelling in you. Without me, Father can do nothing for you. With me, Father is free to exercise his love towards you without any limitations or boundaries. I am the One. Do you see me?
Daniel 9:7 “O Lord, righteousness belongs unto you…”
John 8:23-27 NASB “And He was saying to them, “You are from below, I am from above; you are of this world, I am not of this world. Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins unless you believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.” So they were saying to Him, "Who are You?" Jesus said to them, “What have I been saying to you from the beginning? I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you, but He who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world.” They did not realize that He had been speaking to them about the Father.”
II Corinthians 5:21 “For he has made him who knew no sin to be sin for us so that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.”
Romans 4:2-5 NIV “If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. What does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.” Now when a man works, his wages are not credited to him as a gift, but as an obligation. However, to the man who does not work but trusts God who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness.”
Mark 9:23,24 NIV “If you can?” Jesus said. “Everything is possible for him who believes.” Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!”
Matthew 8:13 NASB “And Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was healed that very moment.”
Matthew 9:29 NASB “Then He touched their eyes, saying, "It shall be done to you according to your faith."
Matthew 13:58 “Now He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.”
I am the belief that allows the “none righteous” to become righteous in the sight of God. I am the righteousness of belief that is able to make you to be well-pleasing in Father’s eyes. He who increases in faith and abounds in belief is he who increases and abounds in me because I am the spirit of belief and faith. I believe only on my Father, and those who are in me and I in them, they will believe on my Father just as I believe on him. I believe that Father is I AM. I believe that it is impossible for Father to lie. I believe that my Father is sovereign over all powers and principalities, over all flesh, and over all spirits that are in heaven and on earth. I believe all of Father’s words, all of his instructions, all of his commandments, all of his counsels, and all of his promises. I believe that Father is well able to perform all of his words. I believe that all things are possible with God. I am the faith that stands in the power of God. I am the belief that stands still and watches for God to move. I believe that only God should be exalted. I believe that Father is able to work all things together for good for those who love him. I believe that my Father loves me, and that I am the object of his affection. I am in you, but are you in me? He who believes in me believes as I believe. He who increases in me increases in the belief of that which Father will do for him. All those who walk in me walk in the manner that is well-pleasing in the sight of God because they believe on him as I believe on him. All those who walk in faith are faithful to Father’s love because I am faithful to Father’s love. I am the faithful Son. I am the faith that raises you up as the sons of God. I am the spirit of adoption. I am the belief that grafts you into family of God. I am the spirit that cries out, “Abba; Father.” Without me, you cannot believe any of these things which I believe about Father because I am that spirit of belief. As you believe, so let it be done unto you. Do you see me? Do you need me?
John 12:44 NASB “And Jesus cried out and said, “He who believes in Me does not believe in Me but in Him who sent Me.”
Matthew 3:17 “And lo a voice from heaven, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
Romans 15:13 “Now, may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
Hebrews 11:6 NIV “And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.”
Galatians 3:26 NIV “You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.”
Romans 8:15 NIV “For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship (adoption). And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.”
Romans 11:19-23 NASB “You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” Quite right, they were broken off for their unbelief, but you stand by your faith Do not be conceited, but fear; for if God did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare you, either. Behold the kindness and severity of God; to those who fell, severity, but to you, God's kindness, (if you continue in His kindness; otherwise you also will be cut off. And they also, if they do not continue in their unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
I am the gift of God; I am the gift that is freely given to those who desire to have me. If you, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, then how much more shall our heavenly Father, who is good, give good gifts to you when you ask of him? Seek only for those gifts that come from above, for that is where all good gifts come from. Shall I not increase the faith of those who ask me to? Shall I not give belief to those who ask of me? Shall I not cause you to abound in hope when you ask of me? Ask, and it shall be given because I said that I would give all things to you. I am the gift that is freely given to those who seek to know the righteousness that is of God because my Father made me to be righteousness for all those who are not righteous. My Father so loved the world that he gave me, his only begotten Son, that whosoever would believe on me should not perish but have everlasting life. I am the only begotten belief that gives you everlasting life. I am your Savior. By grace are you saved through….Me! I am the faith that saves your soul. I am the gift that saves your soul. I am the gift of God. He who increases in faith increases in gifts of me. I am the faith in Father’s love and the belief of his words. Do you know me?
James 3:17 NIV “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”
John 3:30 NASB “He (Jesus/belief) must increase. I must decrease.”
I Corinthians 3:6 “I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.”
Luke 17:5 “And the apostles said unto the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
I am the faith that enables you to overcome this world of darkness. In a world full of unbelief, my Father brought me forth to be the righteousness of belief. In a world full of doubts and fears, my Father brought me forth to be the righteousness of faith. In a world without any hope in God, my Father brought me forth to be the righteousness of hope. To be, or, to not to be; this is the choice my Father has given to each one of you. Am I to be in you, and are you to be in me? I am the gift that my Father desires to give to all who choose to be. If you do have all of me, it is because you have not asked to have all of me. I am the gift of righteousness. I am the gift of God that sets a man free from all of the unrighteousness of doubt, fear, hopelessness, and unbelief. I am the gift of faith that comes forth from Father’s love that gives you the victory over this world. I am the faith that is born of the spirit in all those are born art that I am the faith that saves. I am the faith that works by love. I am the love that casts out all fear. I am the belief that is not limited by any doubts or unbelief. I am the hope that purifies the soul. Do you see me? Do you want me? I am the gift of God that is freely given to all who ask. I am the gift sent by Father to be your Helper. I am he who has come forth to help the humble overcome all their doubts, their unbelief, their fears, their pride, and their hopelessness. I help by giving to you the gift of God: Me. Do you need me?
I John 5:4 NASB “For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.”
He is born again is he who is born of the faith that Jesus is.
Galatians 3:26 “we are the children of God by faith”.
Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin (unbelief/doubt) is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Matthew 6:33 NIV “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”
Romans 5:17 NIV “For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ.”
Philippians 3:8,9 “Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ, and be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith.”
Ephesians 2:12,13 NASB “Remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.”
Luke 12:32 NKJ “Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Do you see me? This is the hour of revelation. This is the hour that all things that have been kept secret shall be made known. This is the hour that all things that have been hidden shall be manifest. This is the hour of the apocalypse; the hour that the light of the truth is going to destroy the darkness of ignorance. Do you see me? This is the hour of the revelation of Jesus Christ. This is the hour of the revelation of Jesus Christ manifested in the sons of God. This is the hour that all flesh shall see me. Do you really believe me when I say that he who sees me sees the Father? This is the hour that all flesh shall see me in you. Do you really believe me when I say that all who see you shall see the Father? Until this hour, I have been the righteousness that the ignorant have not esteemed but have made light of. I am the righteousness that my own people despised (made light of) and rejected so that they could continue believing that they themselves were the righteousness of God. Until this hour, I have been the righteousness that the hypocrites rejected and hated. It has not been you that they have rejected or hated, but it has been in you; the belief and the faith in you that they have rejected and hated.
John 12:45-47 NKJ “And he who sees Me sees Him who sent Me. I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.”
Do you see me? I am not in the faith that is proven by the works of men, but I am in the faith that proves the works of God. I am not in the righteousness that is seen in the works men do to be seen by men, but I am seen in the righteousness of the belief that allows for God to perform his great and mighty works. I am not seen in the righteousness of man’s best efforts and good intentions, but I am seen in the righteousness of faith that allows for God to do good and to bless his people. I am not seen in the righteousness of those who seek for their own glory, but I am seen in the righteousness of faith that seeks for God’s glory. I am not seen in the ways that seem righteous, but I am seen in the faith that allows God to make ways when there seems to be no way. I am not seen in the righteousness of man’s zeal, but I am seen in the righteousness of faith that allows for the zeal of God to finish the works that he has started in you. I am not seen in the faith that stands in man’s confidence, but I am seen in those who have confidence in God. I am the righteousness of God that has no agreement with the righteousness of men because that which is unseen has no agreement with that which is seen. This is the hour that all righteousness is going to be judged, whether it be of man or whether it be of me. I am the gift of God. I am the gift of righteousness that all are going to be judged according to. Can you see me?
Acts 17:30,31 NKJ “Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”
II Corinthians 4:18 NKJ “While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
Matthew 23:26 NIV “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean. In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness.”
Matthew 6:1,2 NIV “Take heed that you do not do your charitable deeds before men, to be seen by them. Otherwise you have no reward from your Father in heaven. Therefore, when you do a charitable deed, do not sound a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may have glory from men. Assuredly, I say to you, they have their reward.”
John 7:18 NASB “He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who is seeking the glory of the One who sent Him, He is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.”
Romans 10:2-3 NIV “For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness.”
Do not judge according to appearances, but judge righteous judgment. I am the gift that the blind cannot see. Do you not know that Satan rules in the realm that the blind do see? Do you not know that the blind are only able to judge according to appearances? I came unto my own, and my own could not even see me. Do you not know that in the realm of the blind, Satan is able to make the self-righteous works of iniquity to appear as the righteousness of God? Do you not know that in this realm of the blind, Satan is able to make hypocrisy to appear as a form of godliness? Do you not know that in this realm of the blind, Satan is able to make those things which are an abomination in the sight of God to appear as that which highly esteemed in the sight of men? Do you not know that in this realm, every man thinks that he walks righteously? Do you not know that in this realm, the blind desire their own praise and glory; and the only reward that they shall receive is the praise and glory of men? If any man thinks that he sees me in any of these things, then he is blind. I came into this world to open the eyes of blind, to save men from the illusions of the things that are seen. So then, do not judge a man according to the works that you see him do, but judge him according to that which is not seen: the hope, the faith, and the belief that he has that will allow for God to perform his great and mighty works. I came into this world to judge my people, to give sight to their blindness so that they might be able to see me; and receive me; and believe on me; and know me; and love me. This is the hour of revelation. Do you see me? He that sees me sees my Father.
Revelation 1:1 “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him to show unto his servants the things which must first come to pass…”
John 7:24 NASB “"Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.”
John 9:39 NKJ “And Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind.” Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, “Are we blind also?” Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, “We see.” Therefore your sin remains.
II Corinthians 5:7 “For we walk by faith, not by sight.”
Romans 8:24,25 NASB “For in hope we have been saved, but hope that is seen is not hope; for who hopes for what he already sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it.”
I Peter 3:15 NIV “But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect.”
The man who seeks to know the righteousness of God, he will find me because God made me to be righteousness for him. The man who seeks me will find the righteousness of faith and belief because that is the righteousness that my Father made me to be for him. I am the tree of righteousness, and those who abide in me and I in them, they shall bear the fruits of life through faith and patience. I am the life. I am the life of those who walk in faith. I am the beginning and the end; I am the beginning of your faith and I will be with you until the end, when your faith has been perfected. I am the abundant life of those who walk in faith. I am the belief that allows for God to answer your prayers. I am the invisible belief and faith that allows for the works of Father’s love to become visible. I am the faith that draws near to Father and the belief that calls out on his name. I am the faith that lifted Moses’ staff at the Red Sea. I was the spirit that was in Joshua and Caleb; the spirit that believed that they could take the promise land regardless of how many giants were in the land. I am the righteousness of faith that was manifested in David to confront Goliath, when the unrighteousness of unbelief and doubt caused the rest of the hearts to fail them for their fears. l am the belief that is able to move mountains, and that was able to move Abraham to take his beloved Isaac to the top of the mountain.
I am the faith that allows for the grace of Father’s love to cover multitudes and multitudes of sin. I am the belief that allows for the most wretched of sinners to pray and that is able to justify the wicked. I am the faith that was in Paul that kept him from departing from Father’s love. I am the spirit of belief that came forth 2000 years ago in that body of sinful flesh that allowed for the sick to be healed, for the dead to be raised, for 5000 to be fed, for that water to be turned into wine, that allowed for sight to be given to the blind and hearing to the deaf, that walked on water, that loved my enemies, and that forgave those who persecuted and crucified me. I am the belief that raises the dead. I am that spirit of belief that makes the impossible to be possible. Again I say to you; when my Father saw that there was none righteous, he brought me forth. I am the faith that allows for the righteousness of Father’s love to be manifest though his works. I am the faith that was from beginning and that shall be to the end. Do you see me? Do you know me?
Matthew 21:22 NIV “If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.”
Galatians 2:20 “I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.”
Numbers 14:24 “But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land where into he went; and his seed shall possess it.”
WOW! Can you see Jesus in that which is written from Hebrews 11:1---12:2?
Hebrews 12:2 AMP “Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection]. He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Psalm 105:2 “Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him; talk of all His wondrous works!”
Acts 10:38 “...God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.
Judgment must begin with the house of God. I am not coming to judge as many suppose. I am not coming to judge a man for his own righteousness or for his own works, but I am coming to judge him according to my righteousness; according to the gift of faith and belief that has been given to him. I am coming to judge my people for the works of God that they have allowed for their faith and belief to do in them. He who increased in his faith, he has also increased in the works that faith allows for God to perform. He who has abounded in belief has also abounded in the joy and the peace that comes when God is allowed to do the impossible. As I once told you: “If I am not working in your heart, then your faith is dead.” If your faith is dead, then could that mean anything other than you did not walk me in your heart? I am the faith that is alive. Those who walk in their own righteousness, they talk of their own works. Those who walk in the righteousness of belief and faith, they talk of the works that Father does for them because that is what my presence in them allows for Father to do for them. Without me, you can do nothing because I am the belief that allows for Father’s love to work in your heart. Again I say to you, I am the spirit of faith and belief. I Am that which I am. Do you give me the glory for being all that which you believe? As it is written, “Examine yourself to see if you are in the faith”; examine yourself to see if you are in me and that I am in you. I am in you, but are you in me? Who believes but him who cries out for belief? Who is faithful but he who asks for me to increase in him?
Galatians 3:26 NASB “For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.”
Romans 12:3 “For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.”
Ephesians 4:7 “But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Luke 19:12-27 Therefore He said: “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return. So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, “Do business till I come.” But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, “We will not have this man to reign over us.” And so it was that when he returned, having received the kingdom, he then commanded these servants, to whom he had given the money, to be called to him, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading. Then came the first saying, “Master, your mina has earned ten minas.” And he said to him, “Well done, good servant; because you were faithful in a very little, have authority over ten cities.” And the second came, saying, “Master, your mina has earned five minas.” Likewise he said to him, “You also be over five cities.” Then another came, saying, “Master, here is your mina, which I have kept put away in a handkerchief. For I feared you, because you are an austere man. You collect what you did not deposit, and reap what you did not sow.” And he said to him, “Out of your own mouth I will judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was an austere man, collecting what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow. Why then did you not put my money in the bank, that at my coming I might have collected it with interest?” And he said to those who stood by, “Take the mina from him, and give it to him who has ten minas.” (But they said to him, “Master, he has ten minas.”) “For I say to you that to everyone who has will be given; and from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. But bring here those enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, and slay them before me.”
Do you know me? I am love and I change not. I am never anything other than love. I am the perfect love that believes all things. I am the love that helps you overcome a world full of unbelief and doubt. I am the love that leads you through the valley of the shadow of death. I am the perfect love that casts out all fears. I am the love that protects you and keeps you safe. I am the love that is directed by your faith and belief, and the love that directs the power of God. I am the love that does not think to do evil or to speak evil of others. I am the revelation of love that reveals the power of Father’s mercy; the mercy that overcomes all judgment. I am the grace of Father’s love that is greater than all of your sins. I am the forgiveness of Father’s love that is able to destroy the desires of the Devil that judges, that find’s fault with, that does not forgive, that hold’s others accountable, that curses, that accuses, that slanders, that blasphemes, that speaks evil of others, and that condemns. I am the love that blesses those who curse you, that does good to those who hate you, that loves your enemies, and that prays for those who persecute you. He that walks in me walks in the power of Father’s mercy, and forgiveness, and the grace. I am the love that destroys the works of the law. Did you see Father’s love working to spoil the schemes of the Devil who wanted to judge, to condemn, and to kill that woman who was caught in the act of adultery? Did you see me judge this woman righteously? Every man has one who shall judge him: the judgment that he uses to judge others with. I am the love that is able to cast out the one who will judge you if you have the belief that will direct my love to do so. Those who judge without the mercy are those who judge without me. I am the mercy that triumphs over judgment. Do you know me? I am in you, but are you in me? Are you walking in love? I am the grace of Father’s love that brings down the strongholds of laws written in stone. I am the law of love that can only be written in your heart. I am the grace of Father’s love that the ignorant, the proud, and the self-righteous hypocrite cannot comprehend. Do you know me? Do you have any need of me?
1 John 4:8 “He that does not love does not know God; for God is love.”
Malachi 3:6 “I am the Lord; I do not change…”
I Corinthians 13:5 NKJ “(Love)….thinks no evil.”
Titus 3:1,2 NKJ “Remind them to be subject to rulers and authorities, to obey, to be ready for every good work, to speak evil of no one, to be peaceable, gentle, showing all humility to all men.”
Zephaniah 3:15 “The Lord has taken away your judgments; He has cast out your enemy. The king of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst. You shall see evil no more.”
Matthew 12:37 NKJ “For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
James 2:11,12 NASB “So speak and so act as those who are to be judged by the law of liberty. For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment.”
He that walks in darkness makes himself to be a judge over those who I love. My Father so loved the world that he did not send me to judge this world, but to show the world the righteousness of his love. My Father so loves the world that he has judged all worthy to receive of his mercy, his forgiveness, and his grace. Behold the righteous judgment of God! Behold Me! Those who make themselves to be judges of those who my Father loves, they make themselves judges over my Father’s mercy, over his forgiveness, and over his grace. Those who judge my Father’s righteousness are those who will condemn God so that they may continue in the righteousness that find’s fault, that accuses, and that condemns. For God loved the world so much that he sent me forth, his only begotten Son who does not judge, or accuse, or condemn, but believes that the greatness of Father’s love is able to forgive the most wretched of sinners. “O Father, forgive them because they are blind to see what they are doing.” I am the invisible faith and belief that allows for righteousness to be imputed to you, but I am also the righteousness of Father’s love that reveals to the world that you are my disciples. Love is the not the righteousness that is imputed but it is the righteousness that is seen.
The blind cannot see my love because they are to busy looking to find fault and to accuse. These could not see me in Lakeland. I am the righteousness that overcomes the righteousness of the laws that work wrath and condemnation. I am the righteousness that loves my enemies. I am the righteousness that forgives the transgressions of all who sin against me. I am the righteousness that blesses all who curse and persecute me. Remember that which I asked of Paul when I said, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” I am the righteousness of love that intercedes for all those who have slandered me, persecuted me, and have that even have sought to kill me. I am the love that saved Saul. I am the righteousness that does good to all men, even those who have hated me. I am the love that fears no man because there is no fear in love. There are none righteous, no not one. Are you ready for me to be glorified in you? Are you ready for God to be seen in you? Are you ready to be me? Are you looking for that new heaven and that new earth wherein righteousness dwells? I am the righteousness of the new heaven and the new earth.
Job 40:8 8 “Will you also disannul my judgment (his righteous judgment)? Will you condemn me (to make wrong) so that you may be righteous?”
Matthew 25:37-40 NIV “Then the righteous will answer him, “Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?” The King will reply, “I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.”
Acts 9:3-5 NIV “As he neared Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” “Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” he replied.
I am the perfection of love that fulfills Daniel’s 70 weeks. I am the righteousness of love that brings an end to sin. There is no righteousness without me. I am the beginning and the end. There is no righteousness without the presence of God’s love. All righteousness belongs to God because God alone is love and love makes God to be righteous. The righteousness of love never changes because God never changes. Again, I say to you that I am the righteousness of God, and I do not change. I am the righteousness of love that is coming to those who have the righteousness of faith. I am coming to reveal the love of God. I am coming to reveal the perfection of love. Blessed are they who are looking for me, whose hope is in my appearing. This is the hour that I am perfecting and finishing the work that I have started, preparing and sanctifying your temples to become my Holy of Holies; a holy habitation for the holy God. This is the hour that I have been joyfully waiting, the hour that my judgment is going to open the eyes of all those who have hungered and thirsted to see my passionate love; for my love is being coming forth to bless, to save, to deliver, to heal, to forgive, to provide, to redeem, to correct, to sanctify, to do good, to give, to set free, to favor, to restore, and to make all things new. Did you see me in Lakeland? Did you see my love blessing in Lakeland? O the blessings that my love is going to bring forth for those love my appearing, and the freedom that my judgment will bring? Your imaginations cannot even perceive the freedom of the belief that is without limitations and boundaries. I am the love that believes all things. Did you see my presence in Lakeland? Did you see me as the invisible spirit of faith and belief that was allowing Father to bless and manifest his works for many who were there? Did you see the joy and peace that accompanied my presence there? This is the hour that the pure in heart shall see me.
I John 3:2 “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be; but we know that when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall se him as he is. And everyone that has this hope in purifies himself, even as he is pure.”
There are no powers of Darkness that will have authority to hinder or to prevent that which I have purposed to reveal in this hour. My love is moving in this hour to allow for all those who will see me, receive me, and believe on me to be made complete, whole, and perfect in righteousness of God. My love is moving in this hour to restore: to destroy death and bring forth life. The fire of my love is burning in this hour to consume, to cleanse, and to refine the hearts and minds of my beloved bride, to prepare her so that she may be able to receive me in the fullness of my glory. Those who see me in this hour are those who will be blessed far beyond anything that can be imagined, while those who continue to choose to be wise in their own eyes will see their heart fail them for fear as they look on those things that are coming on the earth. Did you see any hearts failing for fear of those who were in Lakeland? Did you see hearts blessed through the anointing of my presence?
Thessalonians 5:9 “For God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ.”
That which I have began in Lakeland is not just a healing outpouring and neither is it a revival, but this is the opening of the first of the seven seals, that which will begin to finish the victory that started when my Father’s love sent me into this world. The revelation of Jesus Christ brings forth the revelation of God; and the revelation of God brings forth the kingdom of God; and the kingdom of God brings forth the demise and the end of the kingdom of this fallen world. Just as light brings forth the demise of darkness, so also does “seeing” bring forth the demise of “blindness”. True knowledge will bring forth the demise of ignorance and righteousness shall bring forth an end to sin. Blessed are all they who will see me, receive me, and believe on me in this hour, for they shall be filled with the glorious revelation of Jesus Christ.
Isaiah 40:5 “And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord has spoken it.”
Other than the two trips that I personally took, I watched on God TV on a daily basis to see and hear all that which the Lord might be revealing in Lakeland. I began to cringe when I saw two things begin to happen because I knew that both of these things would contend with Father’s will in Lakeland. First, it was when they decided that they could take the anointing of God to other cities according to their own will; and secondly, when they declared what they were going to birth there in Lakeland.
If there is one thing that I have come to know about the Lord, and that is, he will never bow to the will of man nor will he be directed by the desires of men. Even though I saw these errors in Lakeland, I wondered how the Lord was going to respond to them. I was praying one morning for Lakeland when the Lord said, “Do you see that I have given to them God TV so that this could be broadcast all around the world? Do you see the people that I am bringing to Lakeland from all nations? When they were surrendered to me, did you not see my presence there on a daily basis? What more did I need to do?” Not long after the Lord said these words to me, I began to notice that his presence was no longer in Lakeland, and I was stunned to see how quickly it unraveled.
Seeing that the Lord had said to me that Lakeland was the opening of the first seal, I began to get really troubled with what I saw happening there. In my trouble, I called out on the Lord asking him to show me how this could have happened. Then the Lord said to me, “Have you ever witnessed a child coming forth on the first labor pain?” I am not saying that is not possible, but I answered, “No, Lord; I have not.” Then the Lord quickened to me that which is written in Isaiah 37:3 “They said to him, "Thus says Hezekiah, “This day is a day of distress, rebuke and rejection; for children have come to birth, and there is no strength to deliver.” I then asked, “Lord, why was there not enough strength to bring forth in Lakeland.” Then the Lord said, “You do not have if you do not ask; and what they did not ask for was my strength to bring forth.” Then the Spirit of the Lord began to quicken all manner of verses to me about his strength.
Ephesians 6:10 NASB “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might.”
Psalm 43:2 NASB “You are the God of my strength…”
Psalm 59:17 NASB “O my strength, I will sing praises to You; For God is my stronghold, the God who shows me lovingkindness.”
Psalm 68:35 NASB “O God, You are awesome from Your sanctuary The God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to the people Blessed be God!”
Romans 4:18-29 NASB “Without becoming weak in faith he (Abraham) contemplated his own body, now as good as dead since he was about a hundred years old, and the deadness of Sarah's womb; yet, with respect to the promise of God, he did not waver in unbelief but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform.”
Chapter 12
The Revelation of the Seven Characteristics of the Perfect Love of God
The Seals Have Been Opened in Heaven, And Now is the Time for the Seals to be Opened on Earth: The Revelation of the Perfect Love of God To Be Manifested in the Sons of God
I Corinthians 2:9-12 “But as it is written, “Eye has not seen nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of a man the things which God has prepared for them that love him. But God has revealed them to us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things; yea, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of man except the spirit of man, which is in him? Even so, the things of God does no man know, but only the Spirit of God.”
Revelation 1:1 “The revelation of Jesus Christ
I John 3:2 “Brethren, it does not yet appear what we are going to be like, but we know that that when he shall appear, we shall see him as he is, and we shall be as he is.”
I was praying one morning towards the end of the Lord’s move in Lakeland when the Lord spoke to me and said, “If you (our fellowship) will come together daily and pray, then I will use you”. When I shared this word with the rest of the fellowship, we were all excited because we all thought that the Lord might begin to use us in the same manner as that which we were seeing in Lakeland, Florida. So we began to meet daily, and pray, and see how the Lord would lead us.
On the very first morning that we came together to pray, the me Spirit of the Lord immediately quickened to me that which is written inPhilippians 2:5,6 “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God.” When the Lord had quickened this verse to me, he put the emphasis on the word “Let (allow; permit)”; and the on the phrase “equal with God.” Then the spoke to me and said, “Mitt, until this day, you have been seeking only for my divine nature to be made manifest in you, but I am telling you that this is the day that I desire to prepare you, as well as all those who will hear and receive my words, to receive my name. You know that those who receive my name will not only receive my divine nature, but they will also receive my character as well as all of my power and authority. How can I make you equal with me if you do not want to be entirely like me? It is my will to raise you up to be my son. It is my will to make my sons to be equal with me. It is my will to make you to be one with me. It is my will to give to you my name. It is my will to make you a king and to give you the kingdom. Will you “let” me perform my will in you?” I was actually speechless in that moment at what the words that I had just heard the Lord speak to me. If the Lord had had just quickened to me that which is written in Philippians 2, I would have had a difficult time in hearing and receiving this word. Later, the Lord said, “I am not going to raise up those who desire to be lords and gods, but have no heart for my heart. I am going to raise up those who desire to be like me because they desire to be my sons. As I said to you, “Every father desires for his “sons” to be like him. And being my sons, I shall you to be made equal to me in that you shall love all things as I love all things.” Then the Lord quickened to me that which is written in I Corinthians 2:7 “But as it is written, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for them that love him. But God has revealed them to us by his Spirit…” I then realized the revelation of this hour is God coming into his son; and his sons are going to become just like him.
Matthew 13:16,17 NASB “But blessed are your eyes, because they see; and your ears, because they hear. For truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.”
Micah 4:1 “But in the last days, it shall come to pass…5 all men shall walk in the name (nature, character, and authority) of his god, and we will walk in the name of the Lord our God forever and ever.”
John 5:18 NASB “For this reason therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill Him, because He not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God.”
Then the Lord said, “Every father wants his son to be just like him. As I Am, so shall You Be”. Then the Lord quickened to me that he wanted each one of us to search out in the scriptures those words that identified the power and authority that he possessed. For example, he is Jehovah Jireh, God is my Provider. Another example would be that Jesus had authority over the winds and the seas, as well as the power to raise the dead, no matter how long they had been dead. If you had asked me just prior to these words what was the power and authority that the Lord wanted to give to us, then I know that I would have only answered with that which is written in Matthew 10:1 “And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.” I suddenly felt like the Lord desires to prepare us so that he can take us into a much greater spiritual realm than anything that we could even imagine. I then remembered that the Lord had told us several times, “What is coming is far greater than anything that you can imagine.” I was already overwhelmed at just hearing the words that the Lord had spoken to me, but to just think that Father desires to give unto us all of his power and authority boggled my mind.
Then the Lord quickened to me that he had the power and authority to “forgive the sins of men”. It was with this word that the reality of what the Lord had spoken to us became real to me. I immediately asked myself, “Do I really want, or am I prepared to accept the responsibility that the way other men spend their eternal destiny could be in my hands?” I have testified in other writings that the Lord has taken me in the Spirit at least 7 times to show me things to come. Everything that the Lord took me in the Spirit to see concerned either the revelation of himself, or of the kingdom that is coming. All except one time. That time I was taken into what I presume to be hell. There I witnessed a horror that exceeded my worst horror. I saw men as though they were just arriving there. I then witnessed how these men responded when the reality hit then like a ton of bricks as to where they were. In an instant of a moment, they turned into insanity; and then a short time latter that insanity turned into madness. And what was the madness that I saw come upon them? It was like the perfection of hatred, disdain, bitterness, and malice came upon them for their own selves. They then began in rage to ferociously tear apart the members of their own bodies. The hatred that I saw that they had for themselves was like no hatred, or malice, or bitterness that I have ever witnessed in my life. I also saw that there was no end to this madness. All that I could say when the Lord brought me back from that visitation was, “Lord, if you are going to have me to sit on any kind of judgment seat, then there is no way that I could send anyone there.” Then the Lord said to me, “Neither could I, Mitt. They persecuted me. They hated me. They despised me. They rejected me. They cursed me. They mocked me. They hit me. They threw stones at me. They ripped and tore the flesh from my body. And they killed me. And I said, “Father, forgive them because they do not know what they are doing.” As I Am, so shall you be also. I then said, “Lord, prepare my heart and mind to be equal with you.”
Then a couple of days later, the Lord gave me this vision. I saw myself as a new trainee in this very large business that had thousands of employees that were all under one roof. When the vision began, I saw myself as a trainee that was just following around this man as he went from one department to another. Aware that I was just a trainee, I never once offered up any of my opinions or advice. I just quietly followed this man around observing how he handled the different problems that he was asked to help with, as well as how he answered all of the questions that were asked of him. I was absolutely amazed at how this man was able to solve every problem and answer every question that was asked of him; but as amazed as I was about the extent of this man’s knowledge, I was even more amazed in the manner that he did these things. He was extremely humble and he never left anyone feeling as though they had made a mistake nor did he leave anyone feeling as though they had been put down. It was then that I realized that this was no man at all, but my heavenly Father. I then just continued quietly following and observing what my Father was doing but with far more intensity than before because I realized that I being trained to do all that which I was observing him doing. At the end of the day, I went back to where I knew that my desk was, which was like stuck way in the back corner of the building, right next to the janitor’s office. As I approached my desk, I saw that there were no papers, or folders, or files of any kind on my desk. I was thinking that since I was just a trainee, I probably was not yet ready to have any responsibilities that would require for any such materials to be on my desk. Then, as I walked by my desk, I noticed that the only item on my desk was a name plate. When I looked down at it, I saw that the name written on it was “I AM Jr.” I then just laughed out loud.
Luke 2:46-49 NKJ “Now so it was that after three days they (Mary and Joseph) found Him (Jesus when he was12 years old) in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions. And all who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers. So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, “Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously.” And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”
John 5:19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.”
John 8:28,29 Then said Jesus to them, “When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.”
John 8:38 Jesus said, “I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.”
John 3:31.32 He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaks of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all. And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifies of; and no man receives his testimony.
Then the next day, I was praying just before I was to leave and go to one of our daily meetings when the Lord spoke to me and said, “I want you to start praising me for your new identity.” I quickly agreed with the Lord, but I asked him just what was this new identity that he wanted me to praise him for. He then answered me saying, “Your new identity is “I AM”. It is now time for me to exalt all who have humbled themselves.” For 29 years the Lord has blessed me over and over with many dreams, gifts, prophesies, deliverances, blessings, visions, changes, miracles, and revelations, but this word stopped my heart like nothing the Lord has ever spoken to me or showed me. I could then not help but think that Father is really serious about making his sons to be equal with him. I then understood why Father had said to me, “I have been waiting for 6000 years to do what I am about to do”. Wow! A chill ran through me when I realized just what God is about to do when he manifests his sons in the fullness of the divine nature of his name. All that I could to say to the Lord in that moment was exactly what Mary answered when she was told that she was going to bring forth the Son of God, “Behold, the servant of God; be it unto me according to your word”. What else could I say, seeing that the only way that this could possibly come to pass is if Father himself performed it. I just want to be surrendered to his will and be prepared to receive him all of his fullness.
As I have born witness, I have been taken in the Spirit several times, and a couple of times I have actually gone before Father’s throne; and it is obviously awesome. I have also read several other testimonies by others who have testified that they had similar experiences, and what they describe is just as awesome as that which I saw. But recently the Lord let me recount these two experiences again where I was brought him in his throne room. But this time, I had the overwhelming feeling that something was really missing. Yes, God was there. Yes, Jesus was there. Yes, the 24 elders were there. Yes, the angels were there. Yes, the Cherubims were there. Even with all of these things present, I felt as though there was this huge void or this emptiness that was not only missing in this room, but throughout the entire kingdom. I was amazed that I could feel this way because of Father’s presence there. I also noticed that I was not all awed at bring in father’s presence like I had been the two previous times, but rather I had this warm and secure feeling as though I was in this comfortable den with a fire crackling in the fireplace. Then Father spoke to me and said, “What is missing here are my sons”. As I thought about what Father had just said to me, I then realized that I myself had not seen, nor could I remember of anyone else who has testified of being taken in the Spirit into heaven, speak of seeing the sons of God there. I then realized that I had another feeling come upon me, like I was in an awesome cathedral for the most beautiful and elaborate wedding that one could ever imagine, and everyone that was there was greatly anticipating the appearance of the bride…. but she is not there…yet.
Again I was praying one morning before I left for our morning meeting when the Lord spoke this to me: “I AM is love; and I AM possesses power. Love is I AM; and love directs the power and authority of God. I AM is his divine nature; and his divine nature directs his power and authority.” I then perceived that the Lord was telling me to come to know what his power and authority is, but useless I come to know his perfect love, the knowledge of his power and authority will become useless. Then the Lord said, “If you continue coming together in prayer, then I will use you (all of us) to open the seven seals.” At that moment, we still did not understand the significance of what the Lord was saying.
The First Seal: The Love that Blesses
Then later that morning, while we were praying and worshipping, the Lord said, “Did you see me in Lakeland. I am the Love that blesses all. I am the love that blesses with my faithfulness. I am the love that blesses the sinner and the righteous. I am the love that blesses those who love you and those who curse you. I am the love that speaks blessings and in whom there is no cursing. I am the love that blesses you with deliverances from all evil. I am the love that blesses the sinner with mercy and grace. I am the love that blesses with salvation. I am the love that blesses with you with forgiveness and repentance. I am the love that blesses the lost with a way. I am the love that blesses sick with healing. I am the love that blesses with restoration. I am the love that blesses the blind with sight. I am the love that blesses the hopeless with hope. I am the love that blesses the weak with strength and might. I am the love that blesses you with all that you need. I am the love that blesses the dead with life. I am the love that blesses you with abundant life because abundant life cannot exist without my love. I am the love that blesses your heart with change and your mind with transformation. I bless because I am love, and love only blesses. I am the love that blesses without end because there is no end to the love that I have for you. Did you see me? Did you not see many blessed? I AM; and as I AM, so shall you be. I AM the LOVE that BLESSES. If you desire to be as I AM, then praise me because your new identity is I AM.
The Second Seal: The Love that Grieves
I awoke a couple of days later, and as I laid there in bed, I was suddenly overcome with grief. I knew instantly that this grief had to be from the Lord because I had been so filled with joy and excitement because of the revelations that we were receiving. I was clueless as to why this grief came upon me, and I had no explanation for it. As I considered what the Lord may be trying to show me, I then realized that this was not a grief of sadness, or a grief of failure, or a grief of disappointment, or a grief of some personal loss, but rather it was a grief of separation. It was like the grief of separation that one experiences when he or she is separated from one who they greatly love. It was like the grief that a loving wife would experience if her beloved husband went on a long extended journey. I then perceived that the Lord had been experiencing this grief for all men since the daily communion and fellowship had been broken because of Adam and Eve’s transgression. God created man for the purpose of fellowship and communion with all. When Adam and Eve fell, then came in the darkness of sin that came in to blind the hearts and minds of men so that the great love that God had for them would be hidden from their eyes, their hearts, and their minds. The darkness brought with it the enmity of unbelief, distrust, rebellion, fears, unfaithfulness, doubts, ignorance, and the pride that all work together to keep men from drawing near to the God who had created them; or rather, from the Love that created them. I then began to realize that Father was allowing for me to experience the grief that his love grieves for the object of his affection: man who he created.
Genesis 6:6 NKJ “And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.”
I Timothy 2:3,4 NASB “This is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth (the truth that Father loves them).”
Later on that morning, the Lord brought into the understanding that there was much more to this grief than the grief that is for those who are alienated and separated from God because of their ignorance of him. I then began to experience a grief for all those who the Lord has called, who are still under the blood of Christ, who praise him with their lips and honor him with their mouths, but they have not yet crucified the enmity that keeps their hearts from drawing near and dear to Father’s heart. The Lord then let me understand that the grief that his love experiences for these is like that which a man would feel when he is greatly in love with a woman, but the object of his affection treats him as though he does not even exist in her world. Though he continually beseeches the object of his affection, desiring for her to prove that the love he has for her is true, she refuses to hear. Though he asks for her to prove his love by asking for him to open the windows of heaven so that he can overflow her with blessings, her lips remain quiet. Though he beseeches his beloved to prove his love by asking for him to show her great and mighty things that she does not know about him, she turns away. He beseeches his beloved to draw near and come into the secret place with him, but she instead shuns him and treats his intimacy as though it is some infectious disease. He has also beseeched his beloved to cast all of her cares, and her worries, and her troubles upon him, but she does not believe on his love to help her. He calls out repeatedly to her, but she has hardened her heart towards him because she does not understand or know the height, or the depth, or the width, or the breadth of the love that he has for her. Father is grieved for all of these because through their hardness, he is not able to overflow them with the blessings of his love. God is love, and if there is no love in the relationship, then there is no relationship.
Ephesians 4:30 NKJ “And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.”
I then perceived that the Lord was grieved for so many of these because they had chosen to believe the lies Of Satan that always bear false witness of Father’s love, his affection, and his faithfulness. They chose to believe those counsels that come from the darkness that say such things as: “You do not measure up for his love; You have failed God; Surely God loves them, but he does not love you; You have disappointed God; You are to much of a sinner to receive any of Father’s love; God has forsaken and abandoned you; You are not worthy of God’s love; God is going to reject you; You are impossible for even God to love; God may help others but he will not help you; God will not hear you.” These are just a few of the lies that the enmity speaks to keep the hearts of the ignorant from drawing close to God because Satan knows that those who draw close to God are those who are going to see the truth about his love, his affection, and his faithfulness. It is when any one of these lies are believed that Father is grieved because that is all that it takes is for one lie to be believed that will lead a man to depart from God. I felt that Father is grieved because for their belief of such like lies that lead them to forsake the relationship of his love. Lies! Lies! lies!
Psalm 95:10 NKJ For forty years I was grieved with that generation and said, “It is a people who go astray in their hearts, And they do not know My ways.”
Just when I thought that I had experienced all that which Father’s love grieves for, he opened the eyes of my heart to see one last grief. This last grief was the grief that a father would feel when sees that his son is heading down a dangerous path. Though he gives his son really good counsel that would help keep him safe, he sees that his son is not paying any attention to any of his words. He then grieves when all communication between him and his son ceases (his son quits praying). As I was considering this grief, and how I have actually experienced this grief with my own children, the Lord quickened to me that this is the grief that the father experienced in the story of the prodigal son. Then the Lord showed me that in all of these different ways that his love grieves for us, he is also hoping that his grief will turn to joy when his sons repent and return into the arms of his love.
Luke 15:17-24 NIV “When he came to his senses, he said, “How many of my father's hired men have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.” So he got up and went to his father. “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him. He ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him. “The son said to him, “Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.” But the father said to his servants, “Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.” So they began to celebrate.”
He is our God, our Lord, our King, and he is also our Creator and Maker, our heavenly Father, and our husband; and his love desires for us to allow for him to show us the love that our God, our Lord, our King, and our Father, and our husband desires to bless us with so that we might know that he have a loving God, a loving Lord, a loving King, a loving Creator, a loving Maker, a loving Father, and a loving husband who desires to continually bless each one of us as the object of his affection; an affection that blesses us with blessings that go far, far beyond that which we are able to think or to ask of him; for his love towards us is without boundaries and limitations. Just as any Father, he is grieved for his son when he sees that he has no heart for him. Then the Lord said, “I AM. I AM the love that blesses, and I AM the love that grieves when my love is not able to bless. As I AM, so shall you be. Praise me because your new identity is I AM.”
The Third Seal: The Love that Forgives
Again, a couple of days later, I was praying in the morning when the Lord gave me this vision to me: I saw a set of scales or balances just like the ones you see that are used as symbols for justice; like in our courtrooms. Then, in this vision, I saw every transgression, or sin, or offence that that was committed against Jesus in the last 48 hours of his life. After seeing all of these transgressions, sins and offences, I again saw this set of scales. While I was wondering why the Lord was showing these scales to me, I suddenly saw the transgression, or the sin, or the offence placed on the left side of the scale. Of, course, the scale immediately dropped all the way down on that left side. But then I witnessed the word “Forgiveness” being place on the right side of the scale, which in turn perfectly balanced the scales out. I witnessed all these transgressions, sins, and offences being put on the left side of the scale, on at time in the following manner.
He was betrayed…………………and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
His disciples forsook him………..and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
His disciples denied him…………and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
He was hated and despised……..and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
False witnesses testified
against him………………………..and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
He was accused and
condemned……………………….and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
The people of God chose a
murderer rather than him……….and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
He was mocked and scorned……and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
He was stripped and
humiliated………………………..and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
He was beaten and
scourged………………………….and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
He was paraded through
the streets as a criminal………….and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
He was crucified and killed……..and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
Then I saw all of these sins,
offenses, and transgressions
all piled together on one side
of the scales………………………and the justice that balanced the scales was forgiveness.
While the Lord was experiencing this vision to me, the Lord actually allowed for me to feel in my spirit the pain of each one of these transgressions, or sins, or offences; and each one of them was very hurtful in my spirit. But the moment that I saw “Forgiveness” appear on the right side of the scales, all of the hurt and the pain within me completely disappeared. I then heard actually heard Jesus say, “Father, forgive them because they do not know what they are doing”. After a few moments, I again heard Jesus speak as though he was answering someone, and he said, “What transgression? What sin? What offence?” He was answering as though none of the transgressions, or sins, or offences ever occurred, like none of these instances existed any longer in his thoughts.
Many times in my walk I have heard the phrase said, “Jesus paid the price”; and without every really hearing anyone expound on it, I just always thought that the price that was paid was the blood that Jesus shed for us. And surely, it is written that his blood “covers” our sins. But what I was experiencing in my spirit in this matter was something that was far greater than just having our transgressions, our sins, and our offences covered by his blood, but rather they were all being completely forgotten, as though they never even occurred. This was confirming for me that which the Lord had previously taught me concerning the way that his love forgives; and that is, when he “forgives” a transgression, or a sin, or an offence, they are remembered no more; completely forgotten forever, as though it never happened. The Lord had begun to teach me this when I had asked for him to teach me how he wanted me to “forgive me of my sins as I forgive the sins of those who had sinned against me (Lord’s prayer”). The Lord had asked me then, “Do you want me to remember your sins?” And of course I answered “No”; and the Lord then said, “Well then forgive and forget the sins of those who sin against you, and I will do the same for you.” I answered and asked the Lord how such a thing could be done, seeing that when someone sins against me, it hurts, or it offends, or it wounds my heart. The Lord then said, “Ask for my Spirit; because as I have told you, only my Spirit is able to perform my words.” So I did.
Isaiah 43:25 “I, even I, am he that blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins.”
Proverbs 16:3 “Commit your work unto the Lord, and your thoughts shall be established.”
Later on that morning, when we had come together for our daily prayer and worship meeting, I shared with the brethren the vision that Lord had just given to me; and that the Lord ended up that vision by saying, “I AM the love that forgives”. As soon as I finished testifying of this vision, the Lord plainly spoke to one of my brethren there and said, “The justice of the Lord is forgiveness”. After she shared this word with us, it took a few moments before these words were quickened within me. I could I think about in that moment was the vision that I had just received where no matter what the sin or the offence was that was committed against Jesus, I saw that there was always the same sentence of words that completely balanced the scales: “The justice that balanced the scales was Forgiveness.” Immediately the Lord confirmed this for me when the Spirit of the Lord quickened to me that which is written in I John 1:9 “If we confess our sins he is faithful and just to forgive us…” Obviously, that which the Lord accounts for justice has no agreement with the justice that was rendered under the old covenant: “And eye for an eye.” It was here that I really began to realize just how much more powerful the love of God is than even my own imaginations of what I thought how powerful the love of God is.
Matthew 18:21-31 NKJ “21 Then Peter came to Him and said, “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. And when he had begun to settle accounts, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. But as he was not able to pay, his master commanded that he be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and that payment be made. The servant therefore fell down before him, saying, “Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you all.” Then the master of that servant was moved with compassion, released him, and forgave him the debt. But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hands on him and took him by the throat, saying, “Pay me what you owe!” So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him saying, “Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.” And he would not, but went and threw him into prison till he should pay the debt. So when his fellow servants saw what had been done, they were very grieved, and came and told their master all that had been done. Then his master, after he had called him, said to him, “You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you begged me. Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you?” And his master was angry, and delivered him to the torturers until he should pay all that was due to him. “So My heavenly Father also will do to you if each of you, from his heart, does not forgive his brother his trespasses.”
We will were still praying and worshipping that morning when the Lord when the Spirit of the Lord began to prophesy to me saying, “The Lord has now showed you what is good and that which he requires of you, that you do justly, love mercy, and walked humbly with the your God”. As soon as she finished speaking this word, all of us that were there recognized this word as a word that is also written in Micah 6:8. This verse then confirmed for us that the man who walks justly is the man who forgives all those who transgress against him, who sin against him, as well as all those who offend him. Again, I could not help but to think of how contrary the Spirit of the Lord is to the flesh, seeing that the flesh is only able to see the scales of justice balanced when one extracts and “eye for an eye”, or “evil for evil”.
I Peter 3:8-10 NASB “To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing.”
Romans 12:17,18 NKJ “Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men. If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.”
As I enquired of the Lord to show me more about what he meant by “doing justly”, he led me to that which is written in Jeremiah 5:1 ASV “Run to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, and see if you can find a man; if there be any there who does justly, and seeks the truth, and I will pardon the city.” Pardon the city? One man who does justly? One man whose heart has been so filled with the forgiveness of Father’s love that God promises to pardon every inhabitant in that city, no matter what wickedness they may have done? I then realized that I really did not understand this awesome love of God that is able to birth this manner of forgiveness. There is absolutely no way that the natural mind can comprehend out the Lord is able to account forgiveness to be the only justice that should be meted out for all transgressions, all sins, and all offences. I was now more in awe than any time in my walk of the words that Jesus spoke on the cross, “Father, forgive them because they do not know what they are doing.” I now understood that when Jesus spoke these words, he just executed justice for all of the transgressions, all of the sins, and all of the offences that had been committed against him. Jesus came to save us from our sins through forgiveness and grace, not to call down the fires of wrath upon those who transgress, or sin, or that offend. If justice came through wrath, then surely Jesus on that cross had every humanly reason to call fire down. Truly, mercy does triumph over judgment. No wonder it was not in Jesus’ heart to accuse or condemn that woman who was caught in the act of adultery, for Jesus came to show us the justice of Father’s love that annuls the justice that lusts for blood. If one man that does justly is able to win a city, then how much more shall the sons of God win when they glory of God arises upon them in the perfection of Father’s love?
Then the Lord said, “I AM. I AM the love that forgives. My love is the justice that forgives the transgressor, the sinner, and the offender. I Am the love that does not remember. Let he who has no sin cast the first stone; there is no sin in love, and love does not cast stones. As I AM, so shall my Sons Be. Praise me because your new identity is I AM.”
The Fourth Seal: The Love that Gives.
Again, a few days after the Lord revealed to us what the third seal was, I awoke to hear the Lord say, “I AM the love that gives.” My first thought was that he was speaking to us about giving to all of those around us who had a need, whether it be money, or food, or some kind of provision. But then the Spirit of the Lord quickened to me that which is written in James 1:17 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights…” The Lord then allowed for me to understood that the this love of his that gives is the love that only be gives those gifts that have come to down to us from above. This is also that love that freely gives all things to any and all that are willing to receive these spiritual gifts from above. Obviously, this love would also gladly give whatever it possesses to those who might lack what they have received.
Romans 1:11 NKJ “For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, so that you may be established.”
Ephesians 4:7-8 NKJ “But to each one of us grace was given according to the measure of Christ’s gift. Therefore He says: “When He ascended on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts to men.”
Acts 8:14-17 NKJ “Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, who, when they had come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit. For as yet He had fallen upon none of them. They had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then they laid hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.”
While I was mediating and considering this love that gives, the Spirit of the Lord came to me and quickened three verses to confirm for that this love the fourth seal of his love indeed gives only spiritual gifts from above.
Luke 12:32 NKJ “Do not be afraid little flock, for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give to you the kingdom.”
Matthew 10:7,8 “As you go, preach saying, “The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, and cast out demons; freely you have received, freely give.”
Acts 3:2-8 NIV “Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!" So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk." Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man's feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God.”
Then the Lord quickened to that which is written in Matthew 6:10 “Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” What is coming from above but that which Father delights in giving to all those who will receive him, his kingdom; and when his kingdom comes, then the will of the King will be done on earth, just as it is done in heaven. Then the Lord reminded me of that which he spoke to me in the “Valley of Megiddo” (See chapter 13) vision where he said, “I am love; my will is to love and to be loved. My will is not separate from the love that dwells in my heart. I Am love. I am the love that gives, and gives, and gives because that is what love desires to do. Those who have sought for my kingdom, I shall fill them with my love; and they shall love and be loved, now and forever”.
Then the Lord said, “I AM that which I am; I AM Love. I AM the only true reality. My love is the only true reality. Without my love, there is no reality, only illusions of temporary things that seem like reality. I am eternal, and all things that are of me are eternal. Every good gift that comes from above is real, and it is eternal. I have given to you my son Jesus for the purpose of changing you into my image; into the image of the eternal one. I AM, and as I AM, so shall You Be. I AM love; and I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of my love. I AM wisdom; I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of my wisdom. I AM everlasting life; I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of everlasting life. I AM goodness; I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of my goodness. I AM the truth; I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of my truth. I AM mercy and forgiveness; and I give to you Jesus who is the spirit of mercy and forgiveness. I AM peace; and I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of my peace. I AM the light of life; and I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of my light. I love judgment and righteousness, and I give to you Jesus who is the spirit of judgment and righteousness. I have power and might; and I give to you Jesus who is the Spirit of my power and might. I AM real and all things that are of me are real, and I give to you Jesus who is real and who is all things of me. As I AM, so shall You Be. It is as it is written, that I will not give my glory to another, but I will give to you Jesus who is my glory. I AM is coming to be glorified in you. Freely you shall receive, freely give. In Jesus, I have given myself completely and totally to you, but are you willing to give yourself completely and totally to me so that I glorify myself in you? Remember, it is your heavenly Father’s desire to raise up his sons to be just like him.
I increased the faith in the apostle Paul so that he could move mountains; I gave him understanding of all the mysteries of God; I allowed for him to speak with the tongue of angels; and I also gave him a taste of my perfect love. When Paul tasted my love, that which is real and eternal, then he understood that only my love gives purpose and meaning to life. It was then that Paul was able to clearly see the vanity, or rather, the nothingness of his own life that was apart from my love. Did he not experience that having all faith, understanding all mysteries, and speaking with the tongues of angels was meaningless without my love? Have I not told you that what is coming is greater than anything that you can imagine? Just as I allowed for Paul to taste of my love, so also have I allowed for you to taste of my love. Was not that which you experienced just as that which Paul experienced, seeing that you also saw the vanity and the nothingness of all that which is alienated and separated from my love? Will you freely give of the love that I am desirous to give to you?
I AM love. My love is existent. Everything apart from my love is nothing and nonexistent. I AM real and eternal. Do not be troubled at the presence of vanity and nothingness, for I have given to each one of you the love of my grace; and my grace is the umbilical cord that keeps you joined to my love; joined to the life that is real, existent, and eternal. I have given to you the grace of my love, will you give unto others? My grace has allowed for me to love you even when you have not loved me, or believed on me, or been obedient to me, or trusted me, or followed after me. Even the prodigal son, in all of his wildness and disobedience, was still attached to me by the umbilical cord of the grace of my love. When he returned to me, my love did not chastise him, nor was my love disappointed with him, and neither did my love belittle him, but my love threw him a grand feast as I loved him and he loved me. By the eternal grace of my love, I am able to call that which is non-existent, vain, and nothing to be existent, the real, and true. The grace of my love is sufficient for you. Will you give a feast to the dead and the lost on my behalf when they return to me?
Is the grace of my love sufficient for you? You cannot out give me because I am the love that gives. Give, give, give, so that more, more, more can be given to you.
Do you judge others by what you see, or do you judge them by the grace of my love? Do you judge others according to the illusions of vanity and the non-existent, or do you judge others with that which is real and true? Have you not read? Have you not seen how the religious hypocrites judged the woman caught in the act of adultery with the illusions of vanity and that which is non-existent? Have you not heard and seen how I judged this same woman with that which is real, and true, and eternal: the grace of my Father’s love? Again, I love all men, but only those who believe on my son Jesus Christ will be able to receive that which is real, and true, and eternal. If you freely give to me all that which is vain, nonexistent, and nothing, then I will freely give to you my love, that which is real, eternal, and true.
My love gives life. I Am Life. I Am the Bread of Life. I Am the Water of Life. I Am the Light of Life. I Am the Words of Life. I Am the River of Life. I Am the Tree of life. I Am the Resurrection of Life. The first born Adam was a living being…The second man is the Lord from heaven who gives my bread, my water, my light, my words, my river, the fruits from my tree, and the resurrection power for life freely to all. My love freely gives all that I AM; for I AM that which comes from above. It is more blessed to give, than to receive. My sons shall go forth freely blessing with that which comes from above. Every good and perfect gift of my love freely gives life to all who will receive it. I AM love. I AM life. AM I the love of your life? I AM the life that is freely given to all who desire to be like me. I have given you my word, will you receive it so that you may become one with me? In the kingdom of love, the beloved and the loved are all one; and one possesses all, and freely gives all of that which it possesses. I am the love that never thinks of self because my beloved are the object of my affection, and I give them all. I AM freely gives I AM because love freely gives all, and I Am the love that is eternal and real; and I give eternity and reality. I AM the love that gives; and as I AM, so shall You Be. Praise me for your new identity is I AM.
The Fifth Seal: The love that Cares
Again, just a few days after the Lord revealed the love that gives, I had just woken up and was lying in bed meditating on all that the Lord had revealed when suddenly the Lord appeared at the foot of my bed dressed in a shepherd’s outfit. I was waiting for him to say something but he said nothing. At first, I did not think much at all about the fact that he was dressed as a Shepherd. But then all of sudden, with just a small shake, he completely changed, and I was now standing before me dressed in the garment of Savior. I do not know how I knew that was the garment he had on was the garment that a Savior would wear, but I just knew. Then after a few moments, he completely changed again, and this time he was clothed as a Physician. Still, he said nothing. This went on an on for several minutes, and whatever he changed himself into, he would continue in that clothing and appearance for about 30 seconds before he would change again. Each time that he changed, I could immediately discern that which he had become. I saw him change into all of the things that follow:
A Shepherd
A Savior
A Physician
A High Priest
A Protector
A Helper
A Judge
A Provider
A Minister
A Messiah
A Redeemer
A Lover
A Father
A Healer
A Teacher
A Comforter
It is impossible for me describe how I knew what he was by the clothing that he had changed himself, but each time that he appeared, I always knew exactly what he had become. He went though all of these changes, and still he never uttered a word to me. So I was just lying in my bed trying to figure out why the Lord was appearing before me in so many different fashions. Then the Lord startled me when he said. “I AM the love that cares. Because of the great care that my love has for you and for all men, I have made myself to be all of these things for you as you have need of these things. Understand and know that I only made myself to be these things in this earthy realm because I am not needed to be any of these things in the heavenly realm. The care of the love that I have for each one of you allows me to make myself to be all things for you. Though I AM all of these things, I can only exist as these things for those who will believe on me to be all of these things for them. The only way that you can know the depth, and the width, and length, and the breadth of the care of my love for you is for you allow for me to be all of these things for you. The more you believe on me to be these things for you, the more you will call upon my name according to the need that you have of me. There are many call me Lord, but they do not believe to call on me to be any of these things for them. This is that same unbelief that grieves my heart because it does not allow for my love to care for them.”
Ephesians 1:22,23 “And he has put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him that fills all in all.”
As soon as the Lord quit speaking these words to me, the Spirit of the Lord quickened to me that which is written in Mark 4:36-40 “And when they had sent the away multitude away, they took Jesus into the ship; and there were also with them other little ships. And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. And Jesus was in the back part of the ship asleep on a pillow: and they awoke him saying, “Master, do you not care that we are perishing? And Jesus arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still“. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. And he said to them, “Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith (in the care of his love)?” Then the Spirit quickened to me that which his written in I Peter 5:6,7 “Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God so that he may exalt you in due time, casting all of your cares on him because he cares for you.” I then realized in my moment how lacking I had been in casting all of my cares upon him because I had not considered before that he had made himself to be all of these things just so that I could cast all of the cares upon him. I then also realized that we actually deny Jesus when we try to be our own shepherd, or provider, or savior, or physician, or deliverer, or any of these other things that I saw him appear as before me. How else could we prove the care of his love unless we actually started casting all of our cares upon him?
I was still meditating on what I had just seen and heard when the Lord spoke to me and said, “Fill in the blank: “Lord, ____ me!” I was a little taken back at first, but then I understood what the Lord meant by asking this question of me. I goes as follows: If I (or you) was in a situation or circumstance where I felt like my life was being swamped out with the troubles of this life, then I would fill in the blank in by saying, “Lord, save me!” If I found myself full of confusion, not knowing what to do or what to believe, then I would call out asking, “Lord, lead (shepherd) me!” If I found myself being attacked in the imaginations of my thoughts with counsels seeking to ensnare with doubt, or fear, or unbelief, then I would call out and say, “Lord, deliver me!” If I was troubled, then “Lord, comfort me”. If I am reading the scriptures then, “Lord, teach me”. If I saw sin within me then, “Lord, forgive and cleanse me (High Priest)”. If I needed help of any kind, then “Lord, help me”. If I found myself being tempted to judge another then, “Lord, redeem me”. If I needed counsel, “Lord, Father me”. If I am feeling unloved, or worthless, or dead, or hopeless, or vain, then, “Lord, minister life to me”. I was awed by all of these things that his love has made himself to be for everyone of us, and I was ashamed that I had not surrendered my heart into the care of his love by calling upon him when one of these cares arose in my life.
Each one of us is a precious soul before the Lord, and unless we humble our hearts and prove the care of his love, then it will be impossible for any of us to know or to believe just how great his great love is for us. One thing is for sure, and that is if we do not believe that our heavenly Father has made Jesus to be all of these things for us, then he will surely not be any of these things for us. Who is willing to humble his heart and surrender his life into the care of Father’s love? The church in Laodicea, having been deceived with false doctrines and by their own pride said, “We do not have any need for Father’s care.”
Obadiah 3 NIV “The pride of your heart has deceived you…”
Then the Lord said, “I AM. I AM the love that cares. As I AM so shall You Be. Praise me for your new identity is I AM.”
The Sixth Seal: The Love that Reveals
Mark 2:22 Jesus said, “There is nothing that is hid which shall not be manifested, and neither is there anything that is kept secret that shall not come abroad. If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.”
Revelation 1:1 NIV “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place…”
Amos 3:7 NIV “Surely the Sovereign LORD does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.”
Not long after, we were again praying one morning in our fellowship when the Lord spoke to us and said, “I AM the love that reveals all things.” At first none of us were able to comprehend just what relation this word had to do with the perfect love of God. Then the Lord began to speak saying, “I AM the love that reveals all of the illusions of Satan’s lies. I AM the reality of love that reveals the illusions. I AM the love that reveals all of the lies that have been formed to appear as the truth. I AM the love that exposes the hypocrisy that appears as righteousness. I AM the love that reveals the false ways that seem right. I AM the revelation of love that exposes the evil that appears as good, and the good that appears as evil.
I AM the love that comes to reveal all that which the darkness works to keep hidden. The darkness always labors to keep itself hidden in the darkness because darkness is only able to inhabit the darkness. I AM the light where there is no darkness. Where there is no light there is only blindness. I AM the light that can only dwell in the light. I AM the love that brings into the light all of the works of darkness; for the darkness works to keep hidden all truth about the love of God. I AM the light of God’s love that destroys the darkness because darkness cannot dwell in the light. I AM that light that is come to reveal the perfect love of God. I AM the revelation that reveals that God so loves this world that he has not given up on it, and neither has he given it up.
I AM the love that reveals that God is real and true. I AM the love that reveals that God is worthy to be believed on and trusted in. I AM the love that reveals that there are no boundaries that are able to contain the love of God. I AM the love that reveals that there are no limits to the grace, the compassion, the forgiveness, and the mercy that flows out of Father’s love. I AM he who has come to reveal that you are “The One; you are “The One” that Father loves.
I AM the love that reveals that God is faithful to the end. I AM the Alpha and the Omega. I am the apocalypse (revelation) that brings an end to all darkness. I am the apocalypse that brings an end to all that which the darkness has worked to hide: the love that God has for all of his creation. I am the beginning and the end. As I am so, shall You Be. You shall be the apocalypse. Arise shine, for your light is come and the glory of God is rising upon you. Arise, shine, for I AM is come to be revealed in you to bring total apocalypse upon the darkness that blinds the peoples. Neither Satan, nor his demons, nor any powers or principalities, nor any wicked or unclean spirits are able to inhabit the light of my Father’s love. Arise, shine, for you the glory of Father’s love arises in you to reveal all that the darkness hides because I AM the love that has nothing to hide.
Isaiah 60:1-3 NASB “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you. For behold, darkness will cover the earth and deep darkness the peoples; But the LORD will rise upon you and His glory will appear upon you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.”
I am coming; I am coming in the revelation of the perfect love of God because I am the perfect love of God. When I came the first time, I was despised and rejected. When I came as the early rain in my disciples, they were mocked and persecuted. But now I am coming as the light of Father’s perfect love to be glorified in you. All shall see me, and all shall know that you are the sons of the living God because they shall see the glorious revelation of the perfect love of God shining brilliantly in you. I AM the love that reveals the majesty and the beauty of God. All of inhabitants of this world shall see my majesty and beauty arising on you; and all, even kings and rulers, shall come to you, praising, thanking, worshipping, and glorifying God. They shall all know that you are the sons of the living God the love that has nothing to hide shall be revealed in you. Arise shine, for God has so loved the world that he has given them…YOU! He who sees you shall see the Son; and he who sees the Son, shall see the Father. Arise shine, for you shall do greater works that I did because a greater glory is now rising upon you.
Isaiah 33:15-17 NASB “He who walks righteously and speaks with sincerity, He who rejects unjust gain and shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe; He who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed and shuts his eyes from looking upon evil; He will dwell on the heights, his refuge will be the impregnable rock; his bread will be given him, his water will be sure. Your eyes will see the King in His beauty…”
I John 3:2 “Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifies himself, even as he is pure.”
Matthew 5:8 NKJ “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.”
When I began to mediate and consider that which Father had spoken, the Lord then quickened to me the time that he took me in the Spirit and brought me into his very presence. He was seated on his throne and as I was walking towards him. He kept motioning for me to come directly before him. As I was walking towards him, the first thing that I noticed was he was completely translucent, as pure and as clear as crystal. I continued walking towards him until he told me to stop, which was no more than 2 feet away from him. Then he began to lean forward, and he did not stop leaning forward until his face was exactly level with my face. When he stopped, my face could not have been anymore than 2 to 3 inches away from his face. Because he is being completely translucent, I could actually see his thoughts. It is written in Proverbs 23:7 NASB “For as he(man) thinks within himself, so he is”, but now I was seeing with my own eyes that God is also as he thinks because all of the thoughts that I could see were thoughts of love. Not one time in this visitation were any words verbally spoken from his mouth or from mine, but it was his thoughts communicating with my thoughts, and my thoughts with his. Suddenly, without even knowing when or how it even happened, I actually found myself intimately joined together with his thoughts, as thought his thoughts were my very own. I could not even tell whose thoughts were whose, as we were one. I have never experienced any such intimacy as that which I was experiencing at that moment with him in me and me in him. I was not fearful in the least because there is no fear in love; and I was in his love and his love was in me. The only way that I could possibly describe the amount of love that I was experiencing is to say that all of his thoughts were as numerous and as visible as the stars in heaven are on a moonless night; and every one of them was filled with his pure love. What I was experiencing in that moment enraptured me beyond any wonderful word that you could use to describe the word “enrapture”.
Psalm 40:5 “Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, and Your thoughts toward us. There is none to compare with You. If I would declare and speak of them, they would be too numerous to count.
The first characteristic of his thoughts that enraptured me with his love came when I could clearly see much his love cared for me. I truly felt the care of his love totally compassing and penetrating into every aspect of my being and my life, even down to every hair on my body. His love kept asking me if there was anything that I needed, and he also kept asking me what he could do to bless me. Needed? Blessings? Nothing! Nothing! Nothing! I was so blessed in being completely enraptured in this love that could not even think on anything else. I do not even think that if I purposely tried to think of something to ask of him that anything would have come to mind because I was compassed with his awesome love; and the presence of his love was actually satisfying every desire within me. I was experiencing such bliss and utopia that there was no thought in me that could speak to anything else but what was in that moment. I then wept with great joy in that moment when I realized that I was with him who was going to love me, bless me, commune and fellowship with me, care for me, and treat me this way for all of eternity.
There is a Christian singer name Julie Meyer, and in the last song on one of her CD’s, she sings about the time that she was also taken into God’s throne room. One of the things that Julie testifies of in this song is being able to seeing the creatures that are before the throne of God, and each creature is full of eyes. She says that their eyes are always focused on God, looking at him in total amazement, as though they have never seen anything like him. Then Julie says that she realizes that these creatures have always been before his throne, and yet, they still look at him as though they have never seen him before. I heard this song not long this experience that I had in his presence, and being curious, I asked, “Lord, how can these creatures eternally look at you with so much continual astonishment and amazement?” Suddenly the Lord took me back before his throne again, and I then saw exactly what these creatures were seeing: the thoughts of God as I was seeing them, but in an entirely different way. They were visibly seeing his thoughts birthed within him, and then they were watching what was birthed then come to pass. In other words, if God was thinking of parting the Red Sea for Israel, they were watching these thoughts birthed within him, and then they watched as the Red Sea parted itself. If God was thinking on creating a new flower, they then watched as this new design was birthed in his thoughts, and then they saw it come to pass. The flower that I got to see God creating was like watching the National Geographic channel when they show scenes of flowers in time lapse photography going from its budding stage to full bloom. These creatures also watched when God was wooing one of his children with his love or when his love was casting out a spirit a fear. These eyes stare in amazement when they see the lengths that Father’s love will go to help us and to prove his love for us. These creatures have a front row seat that allows for them to visibly see the works and the greatness of Father’s love and power in action. They are continually watching Father bless many with his wondrous and glorious works that you and I are not even able to think or ask for. Obviously, what I saw was simply awesome and beyond understanding, but I will never question again how these creatures could be continually gazing on the awesome thoughts of God.
Revelation 4:6 NASB “And before the throne there was something like a sea of glass, like crystal; and in the center and around the throne, four living creatures full of eyes in front and behind.”
Isaiah 14:24 NKJ “The LORD of hosts has sworn, saying, “Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass; and as I have purposed, so it shall stand.”
Now, back into that which I was experiencing when I was in his presence. Suddenly, it was like my thoughts returned back into my own head. I could still clearly see all of Father’s thought as I did before, but now I was beginning to examine the rest of his inward being. I could see everything within him as clearly as I could see his thoughts. You have no idea how astonished I am as I write these words, remembering that I actually stood face to face with the true and living God and saw these things. I can only describe them in the best way that I can understand what I saw. As I said, Father’s entire body is translucent because there is nothing within him that he desires to hide from anyone in his presence because he is purely good and there are no evil or lying intentions within him to hide from any of us. I also asked him later why I could see him as clearly as I was without being blinded by his glory as others have been that have testified of when they also experienced being brought into his presence. The Lord answered me and said, “Mitt, since the day that I called you, you have not ceased to ask for me to come and search your heart, to bring into the light the thoughts and intents of your heart so that I might cleanse you all that which is not of me. You have continued in asking for me to come and judge your heart, to bring to light all the hidden things of darkness and the deceitful counsels that were hiding within your heart. Because you have so willingly allowed for me to bring to light the hidden counsels in your heart, so also am I now willing to bring into the light the thoughts of my love, that which has been hidden from your eyes. You have diligently sought to know me. I am love, and love is that which I am now revealing to you. Do I not reward all who diligently seek to know me by revealing myself to them? If you ask for bread, will I give you stones? You asked for seeing, and seeing is now what I give to you.”
I Corinthians 4:5 “Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.”
Jeremiah 29:13 NKJ “And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.”
I Chronicles 16:11 NKJ “Seek the LORD and His strength; Seek His face evermore!”
Psalm 28:2 NKJ “When you said, “Seek My face,” My heart said to you, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”
Ezra 8:22 NKJ “…The hand of our God is upon all those for good who seek Him, but His power and His wrath are against all those who forsake Him.”
II Chronicles 7:14 NKJ “if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
Psalm 14:2 NKJ “The LORD looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God.”
As I began to examine the rest of the Lord’s being, I saw that his translucent body was as a sea of liquid light; yet lights that were of many different beautiful colors, like that which you would see in a rainbow, except much, much more brilliant and radiant. It was like his body was a sea made up of many different streams of living water, and each stream had its own color. The clarity and the purity of these living streams made my entire body feel refreshed and strengthened just by looking them. I then realized that the knowledge had entered into me that enable me to know what these streams of different colors represented. I first saw seven streams that always flowed together, and that none of them ever flowed contrary to another. I knew that these seven represented the seven different characteristics that form the perfect love of God. I also saw many other colored streams of Father’s love, and the Spirit had revealed to me that one stream was the goodness of Father’s love; another, the provisions of Father’s love; another, the truth of Father’s love; another, the righteousness of Father’s love; another, the faithfulness of Father’s love; another, the wisdom of Father’s love; and another represent the holiness of Father’s love. I also saw the stream of the love that believes all things; another, the love that is patient; another, the love that is kind and gentle; and, another the love that is humble, yet full of boldness. I then felt as though all that which I was seeing of the Lord was somehow being absorbed in me, and as he was being absorbed into me, I was becoming like him. Then either the Spirit or God himself put these thoughts within me: “God is perfect in love; and his love never lacks to be anything other than that which you see in all of these different characteristics. God is today as he was yesterday, and will be tomorrow. It is impossible for God to change.
I then just stared in amazement of the brilliance of his purity and the glorious beauty of his being; and I was seeing with my own eyes that his being is everything that I AM is. I felt that God physical being was not a whole lot bigger than my own physical being, but when I gazed upon all of these streams, it was as if I was looking at an endless sea of love. This sea of love was constantly full of motion, yet, not like that which you see in an ocean. Its motion was rather like the fluidity and smoothness of a beautiful ballet. I then watched as his love came flowing out of him as a river of life. As it came out of him, the light lost all of its liquid appearance and took on the appearance of the light that you might expect to see in most beautiful and perfect rainbow. I then saw this light as it filled the entire heavens, and its purpose was not to just enlighten all that which dwells in the heavens but to continually give everlasting life that exists there. I saw every living creature and every living thing there absorbing his light just as I had seen being absorbed into me. And that light filled all things there with the life of Father’s love. I saw everything there flowing smoothly in agreement with the perfect love of God and everything was filled with existence and purpose. Just as all of the creature on earth need oxygen to live, so also does every creature and being in the heavens require this light of life so that it may have its being. The light of life is of God because God is light and God is life, and by him all things (that is, eternal things) exist. It is for this reason that all things on this earth are only illusions of life because all things of this world are only but for a moment. I have never felt just how contrary and alien the life in this world of darkness is to the life in that comes forth from God’s presence as I did in that moment.
John 8:12 NASB “Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, " I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”
Revelation 24:4-6 “And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads. And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God gives them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. And he said unto me, “These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to show unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.”
Then the Lord said, “I am the River of Life. Out of my inward being flows the light of life that gives being to all things. I AM the life; I AM the river of life that flows in perfect love to give existence and purpose to all things. I AM light. I AM the light of life. I AM love. I AM the love that gives life to all things. I AM the light that reveals all things. I AM the love that reveals the love that has nothing to hide. I AM the love that gives being and being. As I AM, so shall You Be. Praise me, for your new identity is “I AM.”
John 7:38 NASB “Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, streams of living water will flow from within him.”
Ephesians 5:13 NKJ “But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light.
The Seventh Seal: The Love that is NOW
The morning that the Lord began to reveal that the seventh seal is that God loves us “now” began this way. I was praying for my son, Joshua Caleb. Josh was saved when he was 13, and at the age of 17, he decided to depart from his heavenly Father just as the prodigal son did from his. I was obviously very upset when he did this, but after a few months of prayer, the Lord finally gave me a vision in which he showed me the prayer that he wanted me to pray for Josh. Remember that Jesus said to his disciples, “You do not know how to pray”? Many times Christians will hear the voice of the Lord and think that they are hearing what they perceive is instruction from God in what to do in a matter when in truth he is giving them the instruction of how to pray in that matter; the prayer that will allow for God to reveal his love and to show himself great and mighty on their behalf. Every prayer that God teaches us is a prayer that is according to his will; and we know that if we ask anything that is according to his will, then it shall be done. I have also learned that the Lord never teaches us a prayer to pray that God is not yearning to answer for us. Some of the greatest works or miracles that Father has performed in my life have come after I have asked the Lord to teach me how to pray in that matter. When the Lord taught me how he wanted me to pray for Josh, it not only excited me that the Lord heard me, but that he still cared enough about Josh to give me a prayer to pray for him.
Job 33:14 “For God speaks once, yea twice, yet man perceives it not.”
On this particular morning, I was praying for Josh when I realized that it had been almost 7 years since the Lord had given this prayer to me, and other than just a little softening in his heart, I had seen nothing that indicated that Josh was soon to return to the Lord. I then said, “Lord, it troubles me that I have been praying this prayer for so long. How long will it be before you hear this prayer and awaken Josh’s heart with again?” Then the Lord answered me and said, “Do not be troubled, Mitt. All that is necessary for me to do is to bring Josh back into the “Now” of my love. In the “Now” of my love, there will be no history of Josh’s separation from me; for neither Josh, nor I will remember this time. There are no tomorrows or yesterdays in the “Now” of my love; for the “Now” of my love fully occupies all things that are eternal. “Now” I love you; “Now” my love desires to give all things to you. “Now” my love blesses you; “Now” my love adores you. “Now” my love is with you. “Now” my love communes and fellowships with you. I love you “Now”, and my love never thinks to do anything other than “Now”. Remember that I told you that you were thinking that you were waiting on me. I tell you that it is I who is waiting for you to believe that I love you “Now.”
Just then, the Lord gave a vision; and in this vision I saw this little box or window that appears on my computer that shows all of the internet sites that I have visited in the past. When this window appears, it not only lists the sites that I have visited, but down in the bottom right corner it is also says: “Delete History”. In this vision, instead of seeing the sites on the internet that I have visited listed in this box, I saw instead a history of all things that Josh as done during his separation from the Lord for the past seven years. Then down in the lower right corner of this box, just like on my own computer, I saw the words also written that said, “Delete History”. Then the Lord said, “Do you want to see what my forgiveness is able to do when I bring Josh back into the “Now” of my love?”. Before I could even answer, I saw the finger of the Lord just touch that link, and all of the history of what Josh had done was completely deleted. In the “Now” of my love, there is no remembrance of any sin or separation. Do not be troubled; continue in prayer. You will see me bring Joshua back into the “Now” of my love. Then the Lord brought an end to this vision by allowing for me to see into the “Now”, I saw Father occupying Josh’s time with the “Now” of his love. Halleluiah! Glory be to God! Surely God’s thoughts are not our thoughts and his ways are not as our ways; for as high as the heavens are above the earth, truly his thoughts and his ways are that much higher than our ways and our thoughts. Again, all of my troubles about “when” just dissolved. When? “Now”!
Later that same morning, as we were praying about the seventh seal, when the Lord gave us this understanding about what I personally consider to be one of the most mysterious men mentioned anywhere in the scriptures, and that is Melchisedec. To me, there was one thing written of him that I truly did not understand at the time, and it is that which is written that says, “he had neither the beginning of days nor the end of life”. I have read several prophetic words that the Lord has given to others over the past couple of years that speak of the Melchisedec priesthood that is soon to appear, and I could not grasp or understand how this priesthood could come forth from those who had “neither the beginning of days nor the end of life”. It was then that the Lord opened our understanding to comprehend that Melchisedec moved in the “Now” of Father’s perfect love; the love that does not exist in yesterdays or in tomorrows. For God is love, and God is life, and those who have their being in Father’s life move in the love that has no beginning or end. No one can dwell in the “Now” except he who has the God dwelling in him who has no beginning and that has no end.
When the Lord finished speaking these words, he brought into my remembrance several things to confirm this word for me. First of all, in the three years that Jesus went about healing the sick and casting out demons, he did all of those things in the “Now” because God’s presence was with him. Those who came to Jesus needing healing, he did it “now”; those who came Jesus needing deliverance from demons were delivered in the “now”; and those that came to him that were blind, sight was given to them in the “now”. When Jesus arrived at Lazarus’ tomb, the “Now” of Fathers love was present there, and Lazarus was raised from the dead “Now.” In the “now”, there are no minutes, or hours, or days to bind or limit when the love and power of God can move. Not even the Law of Moses could limit Jesus from showing the love of God “now“, even on the Sabbath day. Mary and Martha thought that is was necessary for Jesus to have come and healed their brother Lazarus in “their time”, but when the “now” of God’s love came, Lazarus was made just as whole as if Jesus had come in their time. God loves us all “now”, and everything that God does is in the “now”.
Acts 10:38 NIV “…God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the Devil because God was with him.”
John 5:30 CEV “(Jesus said) I cannot do anything on my own…”
The Lord has taken me in the Spirit several times; and each one of these experiences seem to last anywhere from one to eight hours. Yet, when each one of these experiences is over, my Spirit always returns to my body in the same moment that I left it. Not only do I have the knowledge of all that which I have just experienced, but it may be joined with the thoughts of what I was thinking in the moment that I was taken. It is quite an unexplainable experience. It was not as though time had stopped, but it was if I entered into a realm where time just did not exist. In the natural realm, time is measured by seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years; and when say now, we could be talking about a time as that split second, or that present minute or hour, or that day. In the Spiritual realm, there is only “Now”; and this time cannot be measured with seconds, or minutes, or days. When I was brought into his presence, I observed that with Father there is only one measure of time with the Lord, as well as the time that exists in eternity: and that is “Now”. This “Now” abides only where the presence of Father’s love abides. In truth, that which I experienced could not even exist if it were not for the presence of God’s love. When I entered into the presence of the Lord, I entered into the “Now” of his love, and when I departed from the presence of the Lord, I departed in from the “Now” of his love. The Lord once spoke these words to us, “Why are looking and believing for me to come tomorrow to do that which I have promised to do? Does your heart believe that I will love you tomorrow, because you do not believe that I love you “Now”? I love you “Now”. You must believe that I love you “Now” to allow for my presence to come upon you “Now”.
Then the Lord said this to us: “The “Now” of my love makes my love perfect. For my love desires to bless all “Now”; My love grieves “Now” for all those who will not receive my blessings; My love desires to forgive all “Now”; My love desires to give all “Now”; My love cares for all “Now”; My love desires to reveal all things “Now”. I AM the perfection of love. I dwell only in the “Now”, and those who dwell in the “Now” dwell in my presence. “Now” is the time. “Now” is my time. “Now” is the time of eternity. “Now” shall all things be fulfilled. No man that has the “Now” of my love has either beginning or end because my love knew him before he was and my love will be with him for all of eternity. I AM love; and my love has neither a beginning nor an end. I AM the love that loves “Now”; and as I Am, so shall all of my sons be. Praise me for your new identity is I AM. “Now” the mystery of God is complete.
The Hour of Preparation
I John 3:1-3 NIV “1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched—this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. 2 The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us. 3 We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.”
As it is written in Amos 3:7, the only thing that restrains God from fulfilling his plan for his people is that he must first reveal his secrets to his prophets first. Then once the prophets declare his words, all those who will hear; who seek and ask for the Lord to increase their faith so as to allow for Father fulfilled in them all that which he has revealed and promised to us. We have Abraham as an example, how he was strong in faith because he believed that God was able to perform for him the very words that God had spoken to him. When Jesus comes, he will only be looking for one thing: Faith (Luke 18:8)
I now testify in the Lord, that these are the seven different characteristics of Father’s love that he has revealed to me. Now the preparation begins. The first instruction that Father gave to us concerning his perfect love was to pray and worship him as the God who is able to do that which is impossible for a man to even think, much less perform. Remember that parable of the ten virgins; that when Jesus returns, many of those who he has called will not be ready to receive him. The Lord only, and I mean, the Lord only has the power to prepare our hearts to receive Jesus in the fullness of the glorious love of God.
Proverbs 16:1 “The preparation of the heart and the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.”
II Thessalonians 1:10 “When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe.
Thanks be to God who has not only revealed these things to us but who also has given to us the prayer that will allow for him to work in our hearts and minds to prepare us. It is Jesus, our High Priest, who cleanses and sanctifies his temple so he might fill it with the glory of his presence. And you know that we are his temple. It is a simple prayer that Father has given to us. First, he told us to pray, asking for him to open the eyes of our heart and mind so that we might see his perfect love; the love that blesses, that grieves, that forgives, that gives, that cares, that reveals, and the is “Now”. Secondly, the Lord instructed us to ask for him to prepare our hearts and minds so that we might receive him in his fullness Thirdly, the Lord instructed us to ask for him to work in our hearts to believe his perfect love; for when we believe in our hearts, then shall his perfect love come to be written and perfected in our hearts. The Lord told us that when he comes, he is only going to be able to perform for us that which we believe; so cry out to him, asking for his love that believes all things.
See: I John 3:2
Receive: John 3:27
Believe: John 6:29
Matthew 8:13 Then Jesus said to the Centurion, “Go your way, and as you have believed, so be it done to you.”
I Corinthians 13:7 “Love…believes all things…”
Then the Lord gave us this instruction, and that is to ask for him to bring all things into the light of his judgment that opposes, that is contrary, and that exalts itself against any of the characteristics of his perfect love, lest we be not able to receive him. If the perfect love of God delights only in forgiveness, then the man who delights in fault-finding, judging, accusing, and condemning any man will not be to receive his love. If the perfect love of God delights only in blessing, then the man who delights in speaking evil of those who curse him, shall not be able to receive Father’s heart. The Lord reminded us that when we judge ourselves, we should not condemn ourselves, but to look for his mercy and his power to cast from us all the imaginations of our thoughts and the intents of our heart that we have confessed before him. When God judges those who make confession before him, he cleanses them and changes them. He is our God, and all things are possible with him. Take up your cross, dispossess all thoughts and desires that that disagree with any thought and desires that are not of God; and then be still and watch him show himself great and mighty on your behalf. Be patient (even though the time is short), for we do not know the hour or the day that he is coming.
I Corinthians 11:31 “And if we judge ourselves, we should not be judged; for when we are judged, then are we corrected of the Lord so that we should not be condemned with the world.”
II Corinthians 10:4 “For the weapons of warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God (God is love), and bringing every thought into the obedience of Christ.”
In 1993, I received this word from the Lord: “I desire to raise up a Priesthood of Believers that I can send forth to minister healing to the body, the soul, and the spirit to everyone that is around them who is oppressed of the Devil. I will do this only in those who trust me to do this for them.” All that I tell the Lord that I desired to be in that priesthood, and would he raise me up to be so. The Lord did not say another word until recently when he added this: “Mitt, I am going to raise you up into that Priesthood of Believers, and I not only desire for you to minister healing to those who are around you, but I also desire for you to minister healing to all those who have hated you, persecuted you, and spoken evil things about you.” I answered, “Yes, Lord, not my will be done but your will be done”. I knew that if I was not willing to bless those who have spoken evil of me, or that if I was not willing to forget the sins of those who have sinned against me, then I would not be able to receive the perfect love of God. How can the Lord send forth a priesthood of believers unless they are first made perfect in his love, seeing that it is perfect love that believes all things?
Matthew 5:44,45 Jesus said, “Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those that hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you so that you may be the children of your Father in heaven…”
Matthew 24:42 “Watch therefore; for you do not know what hour your Lord does come.”
Chapter 13
If Satan comes in his attempts to steal the words of God from the saints after they hear it, then how much more is he going to come to try and overthrow the words of the prophets that God is revealing his saints to? How much more will he attempt to overthrow the faith, the belief, and the hope of all those who hear the secrets that God is revealing in this hour? This is not the hour that man will battle against flesh and blood, but it is the hour that man is going to battle against the forces of Darkness over that which he “believes”.
Luke 22:13-14 NKJ “And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren.”
Romans 4:19-22 “And being not weak in faith, he (Abraham) considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sara's womb: He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God; And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised (a son/the manifestation of the sons of God), he was able also to perform. And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.”
I Timothy 4:1-2 NIV “The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.”
Revelation 12:8-9 “So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.”
II Timothy 3:12-13 “Yea and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution. But evil men and seducers shall grow worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.”
II Thessalonians 2: 7-14 NIV “And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming. The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with the work of Satan displayed in all kinds of counterfeit miracles, signs and wonders, and in every sort of evil that deceives those who are perishing. They perish because they refused to love the truth and so be saved. For this reason God sends them a powerful delusion (FEARS; Isaiah 66:4) so that they will believe the lie and so that all will be condemned who have not believed the truth but have delighted in wickedness. But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God chose you to be saved through the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through belief in the truth.”
Matthew 13:58 “And he (Jesus) did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.”
Note: I am capitalizing the word darkness in this chapter because I have seen in the spiritual realm that Darkness is an entity of itself, just as God is light.
In this world of Darkness, men have a saying that says that there are two things that are certain in this life: death and taxes. But there is also another certainty for those who would hear the truth of God’s word, and that is that they can always expect to receive his word with some manner of affliction to follow it. We have an adversary in Satan, and from the very beginning with Adam and Eve, he has always been devising lies in his attempts the words that God speaks to his people, lest his words be understood and believed, lest they bear the fruit of God’s works. Jesus spoke the parable of the sower to address this very issue. The understanding of this parable is so crucial to the Christian walk that Jesus also said that if you do not understand this parable, then you will not be able to understand any of the other parables either. This parable identifies several of the devices that Satan/Devil uses to overthrow the word of God after it has been heard. Tribulation, the cares for one’s own life, persecution, the riches of this world, and the pleasures of this life are just some of the devices that Satan uses in his attempts to overthrow the word of God that was heard. Many times in my own walk, I have fallen in weakness to every one of Satan’s temptations when I was afflicted by them. But every time that I have taken it to the Lord, and confessed my weakness before him, I have witnessed the incredible grace of his love remove the weakness of my flesh and empower me with the Spirit of his Son. Many times he has strengthened me so that I might keep and hold fast to the words that he has given to me.
Mark 4:13 NIV “Then Jesus said to them, “Don't you understand this parable? How then will you understand any parable?”
1 Thessalonians 1:6-7 NKJ “And you became followers of us and of the Lord, having received the Word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit.”
Matthew 26:40-41 NKJ “Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
II Corinthians 12:9-10 NIV “But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
Psalm 34:19 NKJ “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.”
The parable of the sower reveals that if a man is not watching after he hears the Word of God, then Satan is able to come and take that Word of God that he heard right out of his heart so that it cannot be believed on. If the Word of God is believed on, then it allows for God himself to come and perform his word in those who heard it and kept it. If Satan did not have enough devices at his disposal, one of his strongest temptations comes when Satan tempts those who do that which seems right in their own eyes, and that is, to sow that word to the flesh. That is, he deceives those who lean to their own understanding into believing that they are able of their own selves to perform the words that they heard. These are they who through good intentions and their best efforts try to bring forth fruit through the will of their own flesh rather than believing in Jesus Christ who said in John 15:5 “I am the vine and you are the branches; he that abides in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit; for without me, you can do nothing.” Those who sow the word to their flesh are only able to bring forth the works of iniquity, heavy burdens, vanity, and hypocrisy. Those who sow the word of God to the Spirit are those who surrender their hearts and minds unto God, asking for him to write the nature and character of his words in their hearts and minds. These sow the Word in the belief that God is going to perform for them that which they have heard; and these are they who bear forth the fruits of the Spirit. You shall know them by their fruits; for if the Word was sown to the flesh, they will speak of themselves, but if the Word was sown to the Spirit, then shall they glorify God for the wonderful works he performs for them.
II Timothy 1:13 AMP “Hold fast and follow the pattern of wholesome and sound teaching which you have heard from me, in [all] the faith and love which are [for us] in Christ Jesus.”
John 1:1 NIV “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
Luke 8:11-15 NKJ “Now the parable is this: The seed is the Word of God. Those by the wayside are the ones who hear; then the devil comes and takes away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved. But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no roots who believe for a while but in time of temptation fall away. Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity. But the ones that fell on the good ground are those who, having heard the word with a noble and good heart, keep it and bear fruit with patience.”
Galatians 6:7-10 NKJ “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life. And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.”
Psalm 57:2 “I will cry unto God most high; unto God that performs all things for me.”
Now in these last days, the Lord is not speaking those words that will bring forth and bear fruit 30 fold, or 60 fold, or even 100 fold, but rather he is speaking and revealing the words that will bring forth the fullness and perfection of God in Jesus Christ that is to be manifested in the Sons of God. If Satan has fought so relentlessly in the past to keep the church from bearing 30 fold, 60 fold, and 100 fold fruits of the Spirit, then how much more is he going to attack the words that God is speaking to his prophets in this hour, seeing that the revelation of Jesus Christ is that which is going to bring an end to the kingdom of Darkness?” Thus says the Lord, “Woe (grief) to those who reject my Words in this hour! Woe to those who make light of my Words in this hour! Woe to those who do trust to hold to my Words in this hour! Woe to those who do not allow for me to be their Lord and God in this hour! Woe to those who see me, but refuse to believe on me in this hour! Woe to those in this hour who surrender their hearts to fear and dread! The seals are being opened, the Words are coming forth, and judgment begins now. But who is he who sees and understands what I have planned for this hour? Satan sees! The demons see! The powers and principalities of Darkness see! The wicked and unclean spirits see! They all see and they are all trembling! Now all of the forces of Darkness have gathered together in their attempt to overcome and destroy that which I am about to birth in all those who are holding on to and believing my Words. Satan and his demons have known from the beginning that their kingdom is only for an appointed time; and the end of their time comes when Jesus Christ is revealed in all of his glory in the Sons of God. Those who are equipped with my name to call upon in this hour are those who will endure and overcome. Do not be afraid; only hold fast to my Words. You know that you have the victory in me; now believe it, lest you allow Satan to steal it from you!
Revelation 12:1-5 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars; and she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born (that which was sown in the Spirit). And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
Ephesians 6:10-13 NKJ “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the Devil; for we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
I John 5:4-5 “For whatever is born of God (that which was sown in the Spirit) overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world -- our faith. Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?”
Luke 22:31-32 NIV “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you Simon that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”
John 14:23 NASB “Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our abode with him.”
Surely, the name of the Lord shall be your strong tower in this day. Take heed and watch; for the spirit of antichrist goes forth, seeking to conquer and devour all who would receive of the love that I am going to birth through the revelation of Jesus Christ. Be not overcome with the enticing and deceitful lies that turn you away from the precious love of God that is being revealed. Those who allow themselves to be overcome and deceived by his lies are those who will transformed into deceivers. Those who are deceived will seek to spread their fears and dreads, their judgments, their doctrines, their doubts, their foolishness, their vain opinions, and their unbelief of my Words to any who will listen to them. Let not their words become your words lest your own tongue defile and condemn you. Let not your tongue defile you with any slander, or cursing, or judging others, or accusations, or blasphemies, or finding fault with others, or condemning any man that I have died for. Is there any that I did not die for? Take heed, but woe to the inhabitants of the earth, for Satan’s wrath and hatred towards all men is also coming forth into its fullness.
James 3:6 NKJ “And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.”
Revelation 12:12-13 “Therefore rejoice you heavens, and you that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the Devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has but a short time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.”
Galatians 4:29 “As it was then, that is, he who is born after the flesh (carnally minded Christians who are deceived) persecutes him that is born after the Spirit (spiritually minded), so also is it now.”
Satan only uses words in his attempts to overcome Words. Remember Adam and Eve allowed his Words to be overcome by Satan’s words. Remember that Paul held fast to my Words as he endured relentless attacks from the forces of Darkness when they tried to separate him from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus. Paul did not allow for his faith in my name or belief of my words to be overcome by their lies. As it was then, so also shall it be now for those who will see my love, receive my love, and believe on the love that I am yearning to reveal in this glorious hour. Satan is sending forth legions of lying spirits that will bring with them the deceitful words as they intend to overcome my elect.” The Lord then gave me vision of these legions of Darkness that are coming forth under the banners of UNBELIEF; and, SCORN; and, LOGIC; and, DISCOURAGEMENT; and, IMPATIENCE; and, DOUBT; and, THREATS; and, MOCKING; and, PERSECUTION: and HESITATION; and, CONTENTION; and, CONFUSION; and, UNWILLINGNESS; and, STRIFE; and, INTIMIDATION; and, FEAR & DREAD; and, STRESS & WORRY: and, HYPOCRISY; and, PRIDE. Those who allow for themselves to be overcome by their lies shall bear the nature, the character, and the authority of their lies. Take heed that you do not believe any of the counsels of these lying words lest you make these spirits of Darkness to be your friends in this hour. This is the hour that I am judging my people according to all that which they believe on. I called Abraham my friend because he believed only on me.”
Romans 8:35-39 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter”. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Daniel 7:25 “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.”
James 2:23 “And the scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.”
I have now opened the first of the seven seals in Lakeland; and now you have witnessed with your own eyes how Satan was able to overcome those who did not make me to be their strength or their strong tower. Just as you saw my love blessing many in Lakeland, so also did you witness the Darkness attacking many with their slander, with their blasphemy, with their fault-finding, and with all manner of accusations. Did you not also witness division, and contention, and strife arise among those who were to shepherd my flock? Did Satan relent or show mercy in any of these attacks? No! Did you see how Satan sent in more of the forces of Darkness that tempted many with the desires for pride, for self-exaltation, and for self-glory? Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might so that you may withstand and bring forth that which I have purposed to birth in this hour. Though all of the forces of the Darkness are coming together in their attempts to overcome you, I shall keep you and protect you because of your faith in me. Remember that there are far more that are with you than there are with them.
Nothing shall be able to stop that which I am birthing in this hour. Nothing shall be able to withstand the move of my Spirit towards those who will see me, receive me, and believe on me. The first seal is the first labor pain, but the birth is not yet. Nothing shall be able to stop the revelation of Jesus Christ that will be birthed in my Sons. Nothing shall be able to prevent me from manifesting my Sons in this hour. Even so, some will allow themselves to be deceived and overcome by these lying spirits that are coming against me in this time; for the forces of Darkness are desperate to save themselves and their kingdom. Once again I tell you, I am Love, and I possess power. Therefore, when you look for me, look to see my love. If you do see my love, then you will clearly be able to see my power. If you do not see my love, then whose miracles and wonders are you seeing?
Matthew 24:24 “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
Revelation 13:13-14 NKJ “He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. And he deceives those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived.”
I John 4:16 “And we have known and believed the love that God has for us. God is love; and he that dwells in love dwells in God, and God in him.”
Psalm 62:11 “God has spoken once; yea twice have I heard this, that power belongs (is a possession of) to God.”
I want to remind you once again: “I am coming for judgment; to open the eyes of the blind, to reveal myself to all who desire to see me. To see me is to see the light of the truth; and the truth is that which sets my people free from the blindness of the Darkness. I came into this world to give sight to the blind, to turn them from Darkness to Light, from the power of Satan to the power of God. The righteousness of man is blindness, and in his blindness is the dwelling place for all sin. All of the good intentions and best efforts of men are blindness. All of man’s doctrines, and laws, and traditions are blindness. Man’s wisdom and understanding is blindness. Opinions of God are blindness. Hypocrisy is blindness. All self-justification is blindness. Idolatry is blindness. Lies are blindness. Judging according to appearances is blindness. Unwillingness is blindness. Unforgiveness is blindness. Unbelief and doubts are blindness. Fears are blindness. Anxiety and worry are blindness. Hopelessness is blindness. Confusion is blindness. Strife and divisions are blindness. Arguments are blindness. Intimidation and control are blindness. Hatred is blindness. Fornication and adultery are blindness. Envy is blindness. Bitterness is blindness. The desires of the flesh, the desires of the eyes and the pride of man is blindness. All blindness is sin because blindness is the vision of the Darkness. They have eyes, but they do not see! Blindness is man’s captivity to sin. For judgment I came into this word so that those who do not see may see, and that those who think they see will be made blind. If I do not open the eyes of the blind, then who shall free them from these works of the Devil? Can the blind see my love? How shall you be set free unless you ask for me to judge your blindness? If you do not ask for me to judge your blindness then will not your sin remain with you also? Those who sin have not seen me nor known my love.
John 9:39 NKJ “And Jesus said, “For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind.” Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, “Are we blind also?" Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, “We see.” Therefore your sin remains.”
1 John 5:17 “All unrighteousness is sin…”
Ephesians 4:17.18 “Therefore I say and testify in the Lord that you should henceforth no longer walk as the Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having their understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them because of the blindness of their hearts.”
Psalm 13:3-4 “Consider and hear me, O Lord my God: enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death and my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him (kept him blind); and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.”
Job 34:32 AMP “Teach me what I do not see [in regard to how I have sinned]; if I have done iniquity, I will do it no more?”
I John 3:6-8 “Whosoever abides in him does not sin: whosoever sins has not seen him, neither known him.”
I came to my own, and my own did not receive me because they were blind. If they had seen me, then they would not have rejected me, or mocked me, or made light of me, or crucified me. If they had seen me then they would have also seen my Father, and they would not have had any sin. I presented myself before the priests of Israel, but they refused and despised me because they were blind. I preached to the scribes and Pharisees, experts in the law as well as the scriptures that testify of me, but they were blind and could not see me. All who have not seen me abide in the Darkness of their blindness; and whosoever abides in the Darkness abides in the sin of self-righteousness. Even now, in this very day, there are many who are under the blood that say they have no need for me because they are blind and do not see that they are miserable, naked, wretched, blind, and poor. Therefore, just like the Pharisees, their sin shall remain with them, though they think that they see and know me. Where blindness is, there is darkness; and where the darkness is, there is sin; and where sin is, there is no light; and where there is no light, there is no life; and where there is no life, there is only a separation from God. Where there is separation from God, there you will find blindness, the people who do not know that God loves them. Blessed are the eyes of those who see the faithfulness and the grace of the great love that I have for them.
Jeremiah 4:22 “For my people are foolish, they have not known me. They are senseless children, and they have no understanding. They are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge. I beheld the earth (earthy body), and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens (the carnal mind), and they had no light.”
Revelation 3:14-19 “And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, “These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot: I wish that you were cold or hot. So then because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of my mouth. Because you say, “I am rich (in your own righteousness) and increased with goods (righteous works), and I have need of nothing; but you do not know that you are wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked. I counsel you to buy of me gold (the judgment of Christ that opens the eyes) tried in the fire, that you may be rich; and white raiment, that you may be clothed, and that the shame of your nakedness does not appear; and anoint your eyes with eye salve so that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore and repent.”
Luke 10:23-24 “And Jesus turned him to his disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see; for I tell you that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear and have not heard them.”
Now the storms come. As it was it the days of Noah, so shall it be now. Forty days it rained without ceasing. Those who labored and built the ark were saved by grace in the ark they built. Now the great tribulation comes. Now comes the winds of uncertainty, chaos, disorder, and confusion. Now come the relentless waves of doubt, and unbelief, and fear come to beat against the house. Now the wise who built their houses on the faith that stands in the power of God shall by grace be saved through their faith in my love. The faith that stands in the wisdom of man shall fail them for fear at looking at the things that are seen coming on the earth”, says the Lord.
1 Peter 3:20 NKJ “…when once the Divine longsuffering waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water.”
Genesis 6:8 “But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.”
Ephesians 2:8 “For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God.”
I Corinthians 2: 3-5 NKJ “And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.”
Then the Lord gave this vision to me:
I saw a large beautifully green valley that looked to be somewhere between 75 to 100 miles long and 20 to 25 miles wide. I immediately observed what appeared to be like this massive battle that was taking place throughout this entire valley because I saw this very large cloud of dust that was being continually stirred up. It reminded of fights that I saw in cartoons when I was a child were two or more beings were fighting so hard against one another and kicking up such a cloud of dust that you could not even see who was actually doing the fighting. This was certainly no small battle seeing that this dust cloud stretched from one end of the valley to the other end as well as from one side to the other side. It was then that I also began to hear much shouting, yelling, squeals, as well as screams of agony, distress, pain, and anguish. Then this cloud of dust began to clear away so that I could see what the events were that were causing so much pain and anguish. I saw what appeared to be all of mankind in this valley because I saw multitudes and multitudes of people from every race, nationality, creed, and color. I then saw countless and various kinds of arguments, fights, murders, strife, rapes, terrorism, bitterness, chaos, contention, vicious accusations, hatred, riots, malice, and wars. Even though these evil and wicked works have been around since the fall of Adam, I sensed that there was something very different about what I was seeing before my eyes; but I could not yet discern what it was. It was if there were no longer any laws or any order that was able to restrain men from freely doing any of these wicked deeds to one another. It seemed as though there was absolutely no place in this valley for any mercy or compassion. What even seemed more amazing to me than that was that I did not see anyone in this valley that desired any kind of peace or escape from these evil works. It was as if everyone was delighting in that which he was doing. Because there seemed to be no end to that fighting, it made it appear as though this was truly going to be a battle until the last man was standing.
Matthew 24:21-22 AMP “For then there will be great tribulation (affliction, distress, and oppression) such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now--no, and never will be [again]. And if those days had not been shortened, no human being would endure and survive, but for the sake of the elect (God's chosen ones) those days will be shortened.
Daniel 12:1 NKJ “At that time Michael shall stand up, the great prince who stands watch over the sons of your people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation, even to that time. And at that time your people shall be delivered, every one who is found written in the book.”
II Thessalonians 2:6-12 NKJ “And now you know what is restraining, that he may be revealed in his own time. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the brightness of His coming. The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders, and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie so that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.”
Then my eyes were opened and when I looked back into this same valley, I not only saw all of mankind there but I also saw what appeared to be all of the forces of Darkness to be there as well. I saw countless numbers of demons as well as those lifeless, dark, haunting spirits that I first saw in the “Castle Vision”. I also saw thousands of these small clouds or mists of Darkness, each one being only about foot square in size. I then knew that these were the powers and principalities, the rulers, and the wicked spirits that formed the forces of Darkness; the forces that Paul identified as that which the true church would be battling against rather than other men. I then observed the Darkness as it just seemed to be able to engulf the bodies of men at its own will and leisure, as easy as a shark devouring a minnow. The Darkness appeared to cling to the souls of men like a very tight fitting sweater; or even better, like a scuba diving wetsuit. I then saw demons just stepping in and out of the bodies of men as easy as one would step in and out of a shower. I also observed these small clouds or mists of Darkness as they moved in to compass the heads of men. This scene reminded me of the tall mountains that you cannot see the tops of when they are compassed with clouds. I then saw wicked spirits just flying through the bodies, as well as in and out of minds of men. I observed that whatever the nature was of that wicked spirit, it became the very nature of the thoughts of the man that this spirit passed through; and somehow, it continued to be that man’s nature even after that spirit had departed from him. As amazed as I was to see how powerless anyone was to prevent or to stop these forces of Darkness from taking possession over their bodies and control over their thoughts, I was more amazed to see that no one in this valley even seemed to be trying to resist any of these wicked or evil thoughts that these spirits were conceiving in their thoughts. It was as if the peoples were mindless zombies that were completely enslaved to do that which the Darkness instructed them to do.
Proverbs 23:7 NKJ “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he….”
Ephesians 6:10-13 NKJ “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the Devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God so that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
II Corinthians 10:4-6 “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ; and having a readiness to revenge all disobedience, when your obedience is fulfilled.
II Timothy 2:24-26 NKJ “And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, in meekness instructing those that oppose themselves if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the Devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.”
It was here that the Lord began to open my understanding to comprehend what I saw that was taking place in this valley. Again, let me say this; I did not see any wicked or evil works being done in this valley that have not been continually done by man since the fall of Adam and Eve, but there was something definitely different about the manner that these wicked and evil works were being done. Here now is the understanding that the Lord gave to me: “There is shortly coming a time when there no longer be any wisdom in the hearts of those who have not sought for the wisdom that comes from above. Wisdom is that which allows for a man to consider and meditate how he is going to react to the situations and circumstances that rise up around. Then the Lord showed me that man, without any wisdom, is a….Beast! A beast cannot discern between good from evil or right from wrong. A beast is not able to consider or mediate on the consequences of its actions because there is no discernment without wisdom. Without any discernment to consider the consequences of its actions, there can be no consciousness of sorrow, or regret, or grief, or shame, or repentance for that which it does.
Revelation 9:20-21 NKJ “And the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk. And they did not repent of their murders, or their sorceries, or their fornications, or their thefts.”
Revelation 16:8-9 NIV “The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was given power to scorch people with fire. They were seared by the intense heat and they cursed the name of God, who had control over these plagues, but they refused to repent and glorify him.”
Revelation 16:10-11 NKJ “Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom became full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues because of the pain. They blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and did not repent of their deeds.”
When wisdom is taken from a man, then there can be no instructions, or doctrines, or traditions, or laws, regardless of whether they be man’s laws or religious laws that will have any power to restrain that which carnal man is led to do. Laws only have power when men have the wisdom to regard and honor them, and when that wisdom is taken away, then man will become completely enslaved to immediately do that which these wicked or evil spirits instruct their thoughts to do. I even saw in this valley that without any wisdom, man will not even be able to regard, or honor, or respect the most cherished of relationships, whether it be friendship, or in a marriage, or in a business relationship, or in any other kind of family relationship. What I saw in this valley brought to me a whole new definition to the word “lawlessness”. In other words, when these wicked counselors enter into the minds of men, there will be nothing within them that will be able to stop or restrain that man from immediately performing that which the Darkness counsels him to do.
Ecclesiates 3:18 “I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that God might manifest them, and that they might see that they themselves are beasts.”
Revelation 13:4 “And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war (resist; refuse) with him?”
As I was continuing to watch the sufferings, the madness, the hurt, the offenses, and the death that was occurring throughout this valley, the Lord spoke to me and said, “Without wisdom there can only be obedience to that which has power over you.” I then watched as these forces of Darkness continuously and relentlessly filled the thoughts of men with evil and wickedness; and they all immediately became subject to perform that thought which had just entered into their minds. I saw that there was no one that was able to stop even for a second to consider that which they were about to do. I saw men becoming subject to such thoughts as all manner of fears and paranoia; all manner of bitterness; all manner of hatred and desires for revenge; all manner of confusion; all manner of abuse and intimidations; all manner of jealous rages; all manner of helplessness and frustrations; all manner of loneliness; all manner of greed and lust; all manner of self-condemnation and self-hate; all manner of arrogance and boasting; all manner of fornication and adultery; all manner of theft and corruption; all manner of malice and unforgiveness; all manner of rebellion; all manner of hopelessness and depression; all manner of anxiety, stress, and worry; all manner of drunkenness and addictions; all manner of vicious accusations and slander; all manner of agony, and pain, and suffering; and all manner of killings and murder. Of all these thoughts, without any doubt, the paranoia seemed to be the worst because all who were afflicted with this paranoia were so unpredictable in what they did. Suicides began to greatly increase. This entire valley was full of insanity, but it then seemed like it to turned into complete and utter madness. There were many who were killing their own family members without any consciousness of what they were doing. Truly, just as Jesus, and Daniel, and John prophesied, there has never been nor shall there ever again be a time of great tribulation as this.
Matthew 24:8-13 NIV “All these are the beginning of birth pains. Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.”
Romans 6:16-17 NIV “Don't you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves, you are slaves to the one whom you obey-whether you are slaves to sin, which leads to death, or to obedience, which leads to righteousness?”
Mark 13:12-13 NIV “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death. All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.”
II Timothy 3:1-6 “But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!”
I then began to observe what appeared to me to be the very entity of Darkness itself; that Darkness that I described before as compassing the bodies of men as tightly as a scuba diving wetsuit. This Darkness brought with it all manner of debilitating sicknesses, or fatal diseases, or even death itself. It seemed as though this Darkness was able to inflict more suffering and pain upon the peoples in the valley than all of the rest of the forces of Darkness because I began to hear multitudes and multitudes of loud voices coming from this valley that were taking the Lord’s name in vain; voices that were cursing God, or blaspheming God, or mocking God, or swearing at God, or accusing God, or that were blaming God for all the sickness, the chaos and the madness that had come upon them. I was then shocked to realize that there was not one person in the valley that could discern or see that, though God is sovereign in power, it was still not him that was bringing all this sickness, or chaos, or madness upon them. Because they were blind and without any wisdom, no one was able to call on God for help, but rather they were only able to curse him instead of repenting of their blindness. All of these miseries that I saw in this valley were nothing but the evil and wicked works that was coming forth from the wrath of Satan and the forces of Darkness. But no one could see this.”
Ps 116:3-5 NIV “The sorrows of death compassed me, and the pains of hell gat hold upon me: I found trouble and sorrow. Then called I upon the name of the LORD; O LORD, I beseech thee, deliver my soul. Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; yea, our God is merciful.”
Revelation 16:10-11 NKJ “Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom became full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues because of the pain. They blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and did not repent of their deeds.”
It was then that I began to observe these forces of darkness as they began their attack against the carnally minded church also, for their carnal wisdom had also been taken from them. These were not only attacked in the same manner as the rest of the peoples in this valley were, but they were attacked in what appeared to be in a much more vicious manner. These forces of Darkness had gathered together like packs of wolves to attack a defenseless flock of sheep that have no shepherd. Not only were they attacked with the same evil and wicked thoughts as the rest of the people, but they were also attacked with doubts, with hypocrisy, with fears, with finger pointing and unmerciful accusations, with hopelessness, with iniquity, with heavy burdens, with divisions and strife, and with unbelief. I saw that there was no fear of God among them nor was there any of faith that keeps us protected by the power of God. And when these were deceived, they also began to immediately obey the thoughts that the Darkness had brought upon them; and they did not repent. These appeared as defeated, and dazed, and confused sheep that had completely lost their way.
Revelation 13:4-10 So they worshiped the dragon who gave authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?” And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, and he was given authority to continue for forty-two months. Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven. It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given him over every tribe, tongue, and nation. All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” If anyone has an ear, let him hear. He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.”
I Corinthians 3:1-3 NKJ “And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?”
Matthew 24:19 “Woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck (the carnally minded that only feed on the milk of the word) in those days!”
I Peter 1:5 “Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”
Jeremiah 33:40 “And I will make an everlasting covenant with them so that I will not turn away them, to do them good; and I will put my fear in their hearts so that they will not depart from me.”
Isaiah 29:13 “The Lord said, “Forasmuch as this people draw near to me with their mouth and honor me with their lips, but they have removed their heart far from me, and their fear towards me is taught to them by the precept of men.”
Malachi 3:16-18 “Then they that feared the Lord spoke often one to another: and the Lord hearkened and heard it; and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name. And they shall be mine”, says the Lord of hosts, “In that day when I make up my jewels and I will spare them, as a man spares his own son that serves him. Then shall you return and discern between the righteous and the wicked (Luke 19:20-27), between him that serves God and him that serves him not (Rom.1:25)”.
I then observed that it was also of these forces of Darkness that came forth all kinds of natural disasters like floods, hurricanes, droughts, and tornadoes; and that these things increased in intensity as Satan’s wrath towards man increased in intensity. It was not any global warming or Mother Nature that was bringing these things intense and violet storms, but rather it is the prince of the power of the air. As I continued to observe this attack throughout this entire valley, I perceived that all that which I was witnessing was that which Jesus spoke of when he said in Luke 21:25-26 “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking on those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.” There was no peace anywhere on earth, nor was there any peace or rest in any who were earthy minded. No longer were men empowered with that earthy wisdom that deceives them into believing that they can be their own lords and gods, but they were now nothing but wild beast that were slaves to this Darkness.
Revelation 12:12 “Therefore rejoice you heavens (the spiritually minded) and you that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and seas (the carnally minded)! For the Devil is come unto you having great wrath because he knows that he has but a short time.”
As I continued to observe all madness raging throughout this valley, I grew more and more amazed at how powerful the blindness was in that there was not one soul in this valley that could see that the forces of Darkness were behind all of madness and suffering that was coming forth. It seemed like every minute that I continued to watch what was taking place before my eyes, the stronger and more intense these attacks grew. Men began to respond to these counsels with more and more intensity and viciousness, including those in the carnally minded church. It was as if the power and the authority that Satan had received to kill, steal, and destroy was being fully transferred to the people in this valley to do the same thing to others was well as unto themselves. Where men had been simply jealous, that jealousy was now growing into jealous rages. Where men had been in depression and despair, there were now suicides. Where there had been arguments, they were now growing into fights with physical responses. Where there had been slander, there were now attacks of vicious accusations. Where there had addictions, there were now overdoses. Of all that I witnessed, the worst responses that I saw came from those who were completely overcome with the fears of paranoia. Those that were paranoid responded in the most unpredictable and violet manner because they responded to those around them as though everyone was trying to harm or kill them. As hate began to grow stronger and increase, I saw families, and friends, and churches completely split apart and destroyed.
John 10:10 NIV “The thief comes only to kill, steal, and destroy…”
Revelation 13:4 “And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like unto the beast? Who is able to make war (resist; refuse) with him?”
Though no man was able to see these forces of Darkness, the fruit of their lies were clearly seen in how men responded to their counsels without any resistance. It was as if Satan was taking his wrath and anger out on man without him lifting one finger because all he had to do was to fill the thoughts of men with these awful and horrific thoughts, and they then executed his wrath on their neighbors and friends. I myself tried to cry out to those around me, and I as astounded that no one could even hear my voice as I tried to warn them about what I was seeing. It was scary to see that even though it was not man himself that was behind any of these wicked or evil works, man was still willingly consenting to do all that which the Darkness was bringing into his imaginations.
Psalm 52:2-4 “Your tongue devises destruction, like a sharp razor, working deceitfully. You love evil more than good, lying rather than speaking righteousness. Selah. You love all devouring words, you deceitful tongue.”
I then realized that when the Lord gave me the first vision of this valley, I was looking at with my natural vision, but this second vision where I could see all of the forces of Darkness, I was seeing things as they truly are, through spiritual vision. I just helplessly stood there as I watched the Darkness unmercifully pound away against all of mankind. Then, when it seemed like all hope was lost, I was taken up in the air until I was at distance where I could not only see this entire valley but all of the mountains that completely surrounded this valley. Suddenly I looked, and then I shook my head, and I looked again, and I just about could not believe what I seeing. Just on the other side of these mountains, standing in military type of formations, was what looked like to me to be the armies of the entire heavenly hosts. They were so great in number that they easily surrounded this entire valley, and they went at least 50 deep in their ranks. This heavenly host was lined up just at the outside base of these mountains, and they were all facing this valley. They were quietly standing there, row after row, after row, after row of them, looking just like legions of Roman soldiers that were just itching and waiting for their signal to enter into this valley.
Then the Lord said, “This is Megiddo (place of troops): the place of the final battle for the souls of men. This is not a battle between good and evil, but rather it is the final battle for that which men are going to believe. Woe be to the carnally minded who are not able to resist the lying counsels from the Darkness when they are attacked. Blessed be the remnant, the spiritually minded that have taken up their crosses and crucified the wisdom of this world, the enmity of the carnal mind; for none of the powers of Darkness shall be able to overcome them with their lies. Blessed are they who desired my wisdom more than riches of fine gold and the glory of their own name. Just as Satan has gathered his forces to kill, steal, and destroy, so also have I gathered my elect together to save and give life. I have anointed and equipped my heavenly hosts for the battle that is before them, and I am preparing my sons who will lead them.
Isaiah 29:13-14 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honor me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men: Therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall be hid.”
I Corinthians 1:18,19 “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
Proverbs 2:6 “For the Lord gives wisdom….”
Proverbs 8:11 “For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.”
Matthew 25:1-5 NKJ “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.”
I Corinthians 3:19 “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God….”
After I considered what the Lord had just said to me, I then asked, “Lord, what is your heavenly host waiting on? What is hindering them from entering into this battle now?” The Lord answered and said, “You! My elect! Remember that which I spoke to you in *Houston when I told you that you could throw every book out of the window that has ever tried to interpret the book of Revelation because not one of them has been able to show the impact that the Sons of God are going to have during these times? I will now begin to show you the impact that my sons are going to have in the days to come. Did I not say that whatever you loose on earth, it shall also be loosed in heaven; and that whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven? I have loosed my armies in heaven and they are now upon earth, just as you see. But my elect have yet to loose them on earth. Know and understand this. I have anointed my heavenly host with authority and power to fulfill only my will on earth, but my elect have not yet fully come to understand and know my perfect will. That which I have loosed from heaven cannot yet be done on earth until that which is on earth, my elect, comes into agreement with my perfect will. It will only be after you come to understand and know my perfect will that heaven and earth will then be in agreement; and then when earth has come into agreement with heaven, then authority will be given to my elect to loose the armies of my heavenly host on earth.”
*That which was spoken in Houston can be found in the word given to me entitled “First Love Versus First Born” Page 35 (http://www.etpv.org/2007/flvfb.html)
Amos 3:3 “Can two walk together (or in the case, fight together) except they agree?”
Romans 12:2 NKJ “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”
I Timothy 2:3-4 “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.”
Matthew 6:10 “Your kingdom come; your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
Matthew 16:10 “And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
Understand clearly; the armies of my heavenly host cannot be loosed to perform your good intentions, only to perform my will. My heavenly hosts are waiting for my elect to come into agreement with my will; for once there is agreement between heaven and earth, then my kingdom shall come and my will shall be done on earth as it is in heaven. Then shall the kingdoms of this world shall become the kingdoms of God. I have anointed my armies with the power of my word; and my word always accomplishes that purpose which I send it to perform. When you, my elect come into unity and agreement with my will, when heaven and earth agree, then I will surrender my authority into your hands; and when I render my authority into your hands, then shall you, my elect be enabled to summon all of my armies into the battle that rages in this valley. All things in heaven are now waiting on you, my elect! While the heavenly host waits, the children of this world shall begin to greatly suffer at the hands of Satan’s wrath like the world has not seen before nor will ever see again. I do not tell you this to bring any heavy burden upon you, but I tell you this because it is simply the truth.
Romans 8:19-22 “For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, because the creature itself shall also be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.”
Daniel 12:1-4 “And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which stands for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book. And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever. But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.”
Matthew 25: 1-2 NKJ “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish.”
I then asked, “Lord, what are we lacking to come into agreement with your will?”
“Love”, said the Lord. “I Am love. I Am the love that the Darkness blinds to keep hidden. I loved you when you did not love me. I have loved the world when the world has not loved me. My love is alive and well. I Am a living love. I Am a living giving love. I Am a living passionate love. I Am the love that thinks no evil. I Am a living merciful and forgiving love. I Am the love that does not judge, or accuse, or condemn, or criticize, or that keeps account. I Am the love that delights in showing mercy and compassion. I Am a living intimate love. I Am the love that makes all things one. My love is pure. I love you, and my love for you is pure. My love for your family is pure. My love for all of your brethren is pure. My love for your enemies is pure. Until now, you have only tasted of the love that I have prepared for you; that is, you have only experienced and received my love when you allowed for me bless you; as well as when I saved you; when I forgave you; when I corrected you; when I delivered you; when I worked in your heart; when I showed my favor towards you; when I healed your hips; when I showed you mercy; when I cast out your fears; when I taught you; when I gave you gifts; when I took away your pain; when I answered your prayers; when I multiplied and increased you; when I worked all things for your good; and when my presence is with you. Have you not delighted in tasting me? Is not my love good?
Psalm 34:8 NKJ “Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!”
Philippians 4:19 “But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
Have you seen me? Have you seen my love? If you cannot love your brother who you do see, then how shall you love me who you do not see? He who sees my love has seen me. Did you see me when tears ran down my face for those who persecuted me, who spit on me, who scourged me, and those who crucified me? Did you see me when the tears ran down my face for those who have rejected me, who have ignored me, who despised me, who mocked me, and who doubted my love for them? Did you see me when the tears ran down my face for those who delight in believing and trusting in their false religions, men’s traditions, vain opinions, and false doctrines; those lying words that shut the door on my love? Did you see me when the tears ran down my face for those who saw me naked but did not clothe me? Did you see me when the tears ran down my face for those who saw me hungry and did not feed me? Did you see me when the tears ran down my face for those who saw me sick and in prison, and would not visit me? Did you see me when the tears ran down my face for those who refuse to forgive or forbear with the sins and the weaknesses of others? Did you see me when the tears ran down my face for those who judge and accuse the prostitutes, the weak, the murderers, the addicted, the deceived, the poor and needy, the adulterers, the unlovable, the thieves, as well as the rest of the sinners of this world? I so the loved the world that I became as the world.
1 John 4:8-12 NKJ “He that does not love does not know God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. No man has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwells in us, and his love is perfected in us.”
1 Corinthians 13:4-5 NKJ “Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up. Love does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, and thinks no evil…”
My will is to be your Lord and your God. My will is to be your Father. My will is that you allow for me to be the Father God that loves you. My will is that you allow for me to be the loving Father that raises up his sons to be just like him. My will for you is that you allow my perfect love to be released to you. My will is that allow for my love to supply all that which you lack and to provide for all of your needs. My will is that you allow for me to be the loving Father who will care for you and protect you. My will is that you allow for my love to perform great and mighty works for you. My will is that you abide in the presence of my perfect love so that my perfect love may always abide in your presence. My will is for you to be my son. My will is to make my sons to be equal with me. I Am love. I am perfect in love and those who I make to equal with me shall be made perfect in love. Perfect love only equals to perfect love. If my love is not perfected, then it is not perfect love, and you shall not be as I Am. The truth is, there are none that loves you as perfectly as I love you. Those who love me with all of their heart, with all of their mind, and with all of their soul are those who know my perfect love; and they know that I love them with all of my heart, with all of my mind, and with all of my soul. My will is perfected in perfect love.
Matthew 22:36-40 “Master, which is the great commandment in the law? Jesus said unto him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.”
Hebrews 13:20-21 “Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.”
Philippians 2:5 “Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God thought it not robbery to be equal with God.”
Know this, except for that one taste of my love that I gave to you for another, you have only experienced the living love that I have for you. You have my love in your own box; a box that only contains your own experiences with my love. Surely you now know that my love towards you is perfectly pure, but so also is my love towards all of my creation just as perfectly pure. I Am love; therefore my will is to love and to be loved; and my will for you is for you to love and to be loved just as I Am. My will is not separate from the desires in my heart to love and be loved. My will is the key that opens the doors of my love; the keys that will then allow for you go outside of your box so that you might experience my love for the world as I have. Yield your heart into my hands, and I will work to tear down the walls of your box. I shall make you to be a partaker of my love; a love that does not have any width, or length, or height, or depth as a box has. There is no box that is able to contain my love. Ask for my will to be done in your heart as it is done in heaven, and I will remove the limitations and boundaries that you have put on my love. If you will allow for me to tear down the walls and remove all the boundaries and the limitations, then shall you love as I love it. Do you desire to fulfill your destiny? Do you desire to be like me?
Romans 8:29 AMP “For those whom He foreknew [of whom He was aware and loved beforehand], He also destined from the beginning [foreordaining them] to be molded into the image of His Son [and share inwardly His likeness], that He might become the firstborn among many brethren.”
Did you hear me when I said that I Am love and my will is to love and to be loved; and my will for you is that you love and be loved? How many times have I told my prophets to tell my people that if you give yourselves to me, then I will perfectly give myself to you? Did you not know that I love all those that have sinned against you, that have hated you, that have offended you, that have persecuted you, that have slandered you, that have judged and accused you, as well as all those that account themselves to be your enemies? The perfect and acceptable will of God is the perfect love of God. My will is perfected in you when my love is perfected in you. Be you perfect because I Am perfect. There is none righteous, but I have loved all, even when they were not righteous. There are none good, but I have loved all, even when they were not good. There is none that understand or that that seek for me, but I have loved all, even when they have not known my love for them. I have loved all when all did not love me. If my love fails for one, then my love will fail for all; but my love never fails because I Am love, and I Am never change. My love towards all of my creation is perfect. My love is pure towards all those who have sinned against you, and my will is that you be as I Am. My love is pure towards all those who have offended you, and my will is that you be as I Am. My love is pure towards all those who have persecuted you, and my will is that you be as I Am. My love is pure towards those who have slandered you and that have spoken all manner of evil against you, and my will is that you be as I Am. My love towards all of your enemies is pure, and my will is that you be as I Am. My love towards this world is pure, and my will is that you be as I Am.
Matthew 5:43-48 NKJ “You have heard that it was said, “You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so? Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.”
Do you know what my love looks like? My love looks just like you when you bless those who curse you. My love looks just like you when minister to the poor in Spirit. My love looks just like you when you show grace to the sinners. My love looks like you when you forgive and forget the sins of those who have offended you. My love looks just like you when you do good to those who hate you? My love looks just like you when you believe that all things are possible. My love looks just like you when you lay down your life for your others. My love looks just like you when you love your enemies. My love looks just like you when you bless without desiring any recognition or reward in return. My love looks just like you when you clothe the naked and visit the sick. My love looks just like you when you show mercy instead of judgment. My love looks just like you when you lay down your life so that you may receive the life of my love. Do you desire to be like me? Does your heart belong to self, or does it belong to me? You do now that the only way that you can look like my love is for you to ask for me to make you to be like me? Would you let me adorn you in my love? Could you believe that I am able to adorn you in the same love that will allow for you to love the world just as I love the world?
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Would you be willing to believe that I am even able to raise you up in my love so that you will even be able to love a man in the most wicked state that a man can possibly be in? Look at the valley of Megiddo. Do you see all of the wickedness and evil that man is doing to one another, or do you see the Darkness oppressing man to do wickedness and evil to one another? There was a young man who was brought before me that was continuously being pounded on and beat down by a wicked demonic spirit. He was a wild man whose strength was so great that he was able to pound on and beat down several men at a time. He could not even be restrained by others. He not only harmed others but he harmed himself also. He was so wild that he intimidated, and frightened and terrified all those who came around him. He foamed at his mouth and he bounced off of walls. He was such a wild man that many had judged him to be beyond any help. Did his neighbors bring him before me? Did his brethren bring him before me? Did the religious bring him before me? Do you not think (reason) that if it had been given to his neighbors that many of them would have cried out, “Lord, I call fire down from heaven to destroy this wild and wicked man who threatens and terrifies me.” It was a father’s love that brought this man before me; and by the power and authority of my Father’s love, I cast out that wicked demonic spirit out that had so tormented him as well as all those who were around him. A father’s love working in unity and agreement with my Father’s love was able to cast out the forces of Darkness; and then I was able to restore him to a sound mind. Was he a wicked and wild man, or did he have a wicked and wild spirit in him? What do you see in the valley of Megiddo, wild men doing wickedly or wild spirits directing men to do wickedly? It is not my will that any should perish but that all should be saved.
Mark 9:17-24 AMP “And one of the throng replied to Him, Teacher, I brought my son to You, for he has a dumb spirit. And wherever it lays hold of him [so as to make him its own], it dashes him down and convulses him, and he foams [at the mouth] and grinds his teeth, and he [falls into a motionless stupor and] is wasting away. And I asked Your disciples to drive it out, and they were not able [to do it].” And He answered them, “O unbelieving generation [without any faith]! How long shall I [have to do] with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to Me. So they brought [the boy] to Him, and when the spirit saw Him, at once it completely convulsed the boy, and he fell to the ground and kept rolling about, foaming [at the mouth]. And [Jesus] asked his father, How long has he had this? And he answered, From the time he was a little boy. And it has often thrown him both into fire and into water, intending to kill him. But if You can do anything, do have pity on us and help us. And Jesus said, [You say to Me], If You can do anything? [Why,] all things can be (are possible) to him who believes! At once the father of the boy gave [an eager, piercing, inarticulate] cry with tears, and he said, Lord, I believe! [Constantly] help my weakness of faith!”
I told you before that I do not see as man sees. I do not look on the evil or the wickedness that the children of this world have done, but I look on the good works that my love is able to do for them. My love is able to forgive, to cleanse, to correct, to heal, to sanctify, to transform, to prosper, to change the most wretched and wicked of men, and to give life. You hear the news, and you hear story after story of corruption, of wickedness, of perversion, of evil as well as many other horrible things that men are doing to one another, and to themselves. You look on these sins, these faults, these weaknesses, and these wicked and evil deeds, and you think that you have just discovered a reason why I cannot love them. But do you know what manner of Spirit that you are of? Do you think that I should send fire down for heaven to destroy those that I came to save? I do agree, they do greatly sin, and they do wicked and horrible things to one another, but I still love them. Have you seen the tears run down my face because your ignorance of my love? Do I not cause the rain to fall on the just and the unjust? Have you not also seen me with your own eyes bless both the righteous and the heathen? My will is to love those who love me as well as to love those who do not love me. Did I not love you when you did not love me? I love those who have made themselves to be my enemies. Have you not at times made yourself to be my enemy? Yet, I loved you. Would I ask you to love your enemies if I was not able to do the same? Will you receive your Father’s will? Will you receive your Father’s love for wild and wicked men? Will you receive a Father’s love for my creation that is in enslaved to the works of Darkness? Will you receive the love that allows for heaven and earth to come into agreement?
1 John 4:19-21 “We love him, because he first loved us. If a man say, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen? And this commandment have we from him, That he who loves God love his brother also.”
Because I do not change, can I tell you once more that I am love, and I love you. I have called you to make you to be my sons; to be the Sons of Love. Would you call me Father Love? Would you allow for me to name you “Love Jr.”? Do you not know that you are my sons, indebted to love all men, even those who hate you? Is this impossible for you? What is impossible for you is not impossible for my Spirit. It is not impossible for me to love any, and neither is it impossible for you to ask for me to give to you my Spirit so that you can love as I love. How shall any satisfy his indebtedness to my creation unless he allows for me to fill him with the spirit of my love? For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, and the sons of God will so love the world that they will love their enemies; they will bless those all who curse them; they will do good to those who hate them; they will forgive from their hearts all those who sin against them; and they will pray for those who have despitefully use them and those who defraud them. Do you believe that I can put such a love in you that you will delight and rejoice in loving all those who I love? Do you believe that I am able to such a love in you that you will delight in loving a man in the most wicked state that he can be in? Remember, the victory that I have given to you is found in the love that I had/have for you when you did not love me. Would you be willing to give the same victory to those who do not love you?
Romans 13:8 “Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loves another has fulfilled the law.”
I John 4:17 “Herein is our love made perfect that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.”
I have heard the prayers of my sons who call out, “Let your kingdom come so that your will/love be done on earth as it is in heaven.” I have listened, and I have heard, and now I am ready to answer my sons. You now that I said, “All men shall know that you are my disciples when you have love for one another.” I am now raising up my sons, those who will know no cursings. My love has tamed their tongues and I have taken away their judgments and accusations of others. My love has touched their lips and given them a tongue that blesses. Love does not judge, it blesses. Perfect love blesses; it never curses. Blessings are the words that come forth from my love. I will give them a new heart and a new tongue, and they will bless all without any boundaries or limitations. There will be no length, nor height, nor width, nor depth to the love that shall come forth out of them because I am bringing them out of their own boxes and filling them with my perfect love, the love that thinks not of itself. All of my thoughts and purposes are conceived out of my love; and all of the thoughts and purposes of those who I perfect shall also come forth out of my love. Love makes two to become one. My will is to love and to be loved; and when my kingdom comes on earth then shall my love be done on earth as it is in heaven. Can you even imagine what it would be like for my love to be perfected in you?
I Corinthians 13:5 AMP “…Love (God's love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong].”
Zephaniah 3:15 “The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shalt not see evil any more.”
James 3:10-12 NKJ “Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so. Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening? Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.”
Understand this: I desire to give to my sons my name: my nature, my character, and my authority. Do you desire for me to give to you my name? Is not my name above all names? Do you know anyone who is able to tell me what I should or should not desire to give to my sons? I desire to make my sons to be equal with me in nature, character, and authority. I desire to give my entire kingdom to my sons. I desire to give to my sons all authority over my heavenly host. I am not willing to give my kingdom to any that are not willing to surrender to my love. I Am Lord Love, and my love rules in the kingdom of Love. I am the Love that has authority over my kingdom. I will not release my authority into the hands of those who desire authority to satisfy their own desires for authority. I will not release my authority to perform the purposes of man or his good intentions. I will release my authority into the hands of all those who choose to do my will. I will release my authority into the hands of all those who agree with my will. Only love is able to bring your will into agreement with my will because I am love, and my will is love. Only love is able to unite your heart with my heart. Did I not say, “Only love is able to bring unity and agreement between heaven and earth. I Am the love that has no dimensions or boundaries; the love that the heavens cannot contain or limit. Do not be afraid little flock, for it is my good pleasure to give to you my name. Do not be afraid little flock, for it is my good pleasure to give to you my authority. Do not be afraid, little flock, for it is my good pleasure to give to you my kingdom” Did I not ask you to pray, “Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” How can my will be done on earth unless my sons are first willing to receive my name, my authority, and my kingdom?
Matthew 7:21-23 NKJ “Not everyone who says to Me, “Lord, Lord,” shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, “Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?” And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who work iniquity!”
Hear me; I will not release my authority into the hands of anyone who delights in judging other men, regardless of what wickedness or evil that they may have done. I have told you before: “Love does not judge; love just loves”. Even so, the blindness of the carnally minded continues to look for reasons to judge others, while the spiritually minded look for purposes to love. My love does not think evil while the blind look to find evil so that it can justify itself to judge. In the valley of Megiddo, the blind will find countless and endless reasons to find fault with, to accuse, to point the finger at, to judge, and to condemn, while love only sees countless purposes to love. When blindness judges, then all manner of reasons come forth to put a stop to the flow of my love, my mercy, my compassion, my forgiveness, as well as all of the works of my grace. Those who judge cover the sins of others with guilt and condemnation, while those who love cover the sins of others with mercy and forgiveness. You are inexcusable O man whoever you are who judges others; for only blindness judges, and by judging your sin remains with you. Do not think for one moment that any of the accusations and judgments of the blind have any power to change me; for Satan has been standing before my throne with the same judgments and accusations, and they have done nothing to change me. I am love today, I was love yesterday, and I will be love tomorrow. The accusations and judgments of the blind are powerless to change me; that is, to cause me to cease from love. “Father, forgive them because they do not know what they are doing.” I cannot cease from love lest my entire purpose of being would cease to be.
Those who judge do not know what manner of Spirit they are of. Do you see me? Do you see the tears running down my face for those that I have called, but they are now in the valley of Megiddo because they do not know what manner of Spirit they are of? Do you see the tears running down my face when I hear one of your brothers desiring for me to send fire down from heaven to destroy and to kill those that I died for? Do you see the tears running down my face for those who are only bringing condemnation upon themselves by their own mouths because they do not care to know my love? The doors are before you/my elect; do you have the keys? You will not find any keys among those who see reasons for me to bottle up my love. I am giving you the eyes to my kingdom. Take the keys, open the doors, and let my love pour forth,” says the Lord.
Romans 2:1 “Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whosoever you are that judges: for wherein (of sin) you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you that judge do the same thing (sin).”
Matthew 16:18-19 “And I say also unto you, “You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it”. And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
Then the Lord ceased from speaking, but the vision did not end. I was still hovering in the air just above the mountains where I could clearly see the entire valley of Megiddo as well as the heavenly host that were waiting at the foot of the mountains. I was just staring at the scene before me, trying to comprehend and digest all that which the Lord had just spoken to me. Hardly a minute had gone by when suddenly I saw the arm of a man reach up and grab hold to one of the rocks at the top of the mountain that was right before me. He had been climbing up this mountain from the valley side, and I had not even been aware that anyone was even trying to climb this mountain until I saw his arm. I then watched as he pulled himself up onto the rock that was at the very top; and then he just collapsed in complete exhaustion on the very top. He then just laid there resting very peaceably. It was then that I observed this same scene repeat itself over and over as I saw others climbing and reaching the tops of all of the mountains that were surrounding the valley. I observed that each mountain had only one climber on it; no more, no less. I then perceived in my spirit that this meant that each man has his own mountain to climb. Then just like this man before me, once they reached the top, they would all lay down to rest quietly and very peaceably. Somehow or another, I perceived that all of these who had reached the top of these mountains were those who were able to escape the wrath of Satan in the valley of Megiddo because they had ceased from judging and accusing others.
I then asked the Lord who these were that made it to the top of the mountain. And the Lord excitedly answered and said, “These are mine. These are they who have sought for my kingdom and the righteousness of my life. They have not wavered nor turned aside from their journey. These are they who have desired to fulfill their destiny and be transformed into my image. They have diligently sought to know the intents and desires of my heart so that they might make it their own. They have asked for me to bring them up higher into my thinking and deeper into my heart. These are they that have hungered and thirsted to only have a heart that beats in unity with the beat of my heart; that is, when my heart beats in perfectly in love, they desire for their hearts to beat perfectly in love. When my heart beats in righteousness, they desire for their hearts to beat in righteousness. When my heart beats with desires to do good, they desire for their hearts to beat with desires to do good. When my heart beats with judgment, they desire for their hearts to beat in judgment. When my heart beats in giving, they desired for their heart to beat in giving. When my heart beats with mercy and compassion, they desire for their hearts to beat with mercy and compassion. When my heart beats with forgiveness, they desire for their hearts to beat in forgiveness. When my heart beats with the desire to save all men, they desire for their hearts to beat with the desire for all men to be saved. When my heart beats in holiness, they desire for their hearts to beat in holiness. When my heart beats with the desires to bless, they desire for their hearts to be with the desires to bless. And when my heart beats in abundant life, they desire for their hearts to beat in abundant life. These who you see resting on top of their mountain are they that have overcome the world, having taken up their crosses and crucified the beat of their own deceitful and wicked hearts; hearts that once only beat to satisfy their own desires and pleasures.
Galatians 5:24 NIV “Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires.”
John 17:20-23 Jesus said, “Neither do I pray for these alone but for them also which shall believe on me through their word so that they all may be one; as you Father are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that you have sent me. And the glory which you gave me I have given to them so that they may be one, even as we are one: I in them and you in me so that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that you have sent me, and have loved them, as you have loved me.”
These are they who have overcome Satan through the blood of the Lamb, through their testimonies of my love and my power working on their behalf, and they have hated the kingdom of sin and death that oppressed them. These are they who crucified the old master that rules over the natural. These are they who have crucified the enmity of the carnal mind, the wisdom of this world that fights to keep me out of the thoughts of their hearts through unbelief, logic, fear, pride, doubts, ignorance, and reasonings. These are they who have daily taken up their crosses and followed me, and not their own thoughts. These are they who have overcome the seemingly beautiful fashion of this world, hating all of the lies of hypocrisy and self-righteousness. These are they who have overcome all of the religious lies that glorify man for his best efforts, his outward appearances, and his good intentions. These are they who have crucified the hateful desires of the Devil, the father of their “old man”: the wicked desires to find fault with, to judge, to slander, to point the finger at, to accuse, and to condemn. These have crucified their judgments of themselves, their judgments of me, their judgments of their brethren, their judgments of their enemies, and their judgments of all men so that the love of God may be birthed in them. These are they who have sown much, and are now ready to receive much. Mine are they who have sown all, and now I am ready to birth my all in them. These are the first born of many brethren; the first born that shall receive the full inheritance of the first born. These are they who have overcome all things, and they are now ready to receive their full reward. These are mine. I am their reward, and they are my reward”, says the Lord.
I Corinthians 15:36 NIV “How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless it dies.”
Revelation 3:12-13 “Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name (nature, character, and authority) of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
Revelation 3:21-22 “To him who overcomes, I will give the right to sit with me on my throne, just as I overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
Revelation 2:26-29 NIV “To him who overcomes and does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations--He will rule them with an iron scepter; he will dash them to pieces like pottery”-just as I have received authority from my Father. I will also give him the morning star. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
Revelation 2:7 NIV “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.”
Revelation 2:11 NIV “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes will not be hurt at all by the second death.”
Revelation 2:17 NIV “To him who overcomes, I will give some of the hidden manna. I will also give him a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to him who receives it.”
Revelation 3:5-6 NIV “He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
Revelation 21:1-8 NIV “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son.”
2 John 8 NKJ “Look to yourselves, that we do not lose those things we worked for, but that we may receive a full reward.”
Fear not little flock, for it truly is the desire and pleasure of my heart to give my kingdom to you. But you think that you have been waiting on me to perform these things for you, but in truth, it is I who has been waiting on you. I have been waiting for my own to come into unity with my will; for when you come into the unity of my will, you come into the unity of my love. When the brethren come into the unity of love, then of the powers of Darkness shall be broken and pass away. When all of the powers of Satan are broken, then shall blindness be removed, and all will see and know that you are my disciples.” Then the Lord said, “These that you see on top of their mountain are they who have continued and persevered, having run the race set before them. They have suffered affliction, and persecution, and much tribulation, but they have endured, and turned not aside from the journey. I have given, and they have received many blessings and gifts along the way, but even these could not quench the passion that burns within them to have my heart. These take no thought for their own life, but they have cast aside their own desires, their own reputation, their own affections, their own works, their own feelings, their own righteousness, their own glory, as well as their own will so that they might win my heart.
John 13:35 “By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.”
Galatians 5:24 “They who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and desires.”
Again, I say unto you: I am love, and my will is to love and be loved; and my will for you is that you love and be loved. My will is one with the beat of my heart; for my will cannot be separated from the love that I Am. I have put my kingdom within all who I have called, but I have only found a few who have been willing to crucify the beat of their own hearts. It is the desires and affections that your heart beats to that rules the kingdom. No man is able to have his heart beat to two masters. I have sought for those whose hearts desire to walk after the beat of my heart; to walk in the love that makes all things one. My kingdom comes, and my will be done when your heart beats in oneness with the affections and desires of my love. Those you saw on the tops of the mountains, these are they who I have brought into my rest; who sought only after the beat of my heart. When my glory arises and shines upon them, then every beat of their heart shall be as the beat of my heart; and all the peoples shall know and see my love as I manifest my heart in my Sons. Just as they came to behold my wisdom when it was upon Solomon, so shall all come to see my Sons, the firstfruits of the beat of my heart; for a greater wisdom has risen upon them. Again, I say to you this day, “It is I who has been waiting on a people who are willing and desirous to walk in unity with the beat of my heart.”
Romans 8:13 “For if you live after the flesh you shall die; but if you, through the Spirit, do mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live.”
Colossians 3:2-5 “Set your affection on things above and not on things on the earth. For you are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall you also appear with him in glory. Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth….”
I then asked, “Lord, how were these able to escape Satan’s/the Devil’s wrath?” The Lord answered and said, “Every man is a slave to the desires of his heart. Like father, like son; as the desires of the father are, so also are the desires of his children. As you know, the name Devil describes a part of Satan’s nature, his character, and his authority. He hates all men, and all of his desire to kill, to steal, and destroy all, whether it be physically or spiritually. It is as it is written, “The first man is earthy, of the earth. At the fall, Satan was cursed to where he could only eat the dust of the earth; the very dust that the first man was formed of. When Satan walks about seeking who he can devour, he is only able to devour those who are of the dust, his own. You did not think for a moment that Satan could love his own or be fond of them, did you? I have put my hedge of protection around those who are faithful to me and sealed all those who walk in my Spirit. Mine have taken up their crosses and crucified the hateful desires of the Devil that are found in the first born of the earthy; the desires to find fault with, to judge, to slander, to accuse, to blame, to speak evil or, and to condemn. Those who do these things do not understand or know God, nor the nature of his Spirit. There is no desire in my Spirit to find fault with, or to judge another, or to slander, or to accuse, or to blame, or to speak evil of, or to condemn another. My spirit will not call for fire to come down from heaven to destroy or kill those that my love died for; all those who are of the dust of the earth. Mine have taken up their crosses and crucified the desires of the first born, the nature of dust of this earth.
DEVIL: ACCUSER; SLANDERER; FAULT FINDER
Micah 4:1 “But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it….5 For all people will walk every one in the name (nature, character, &authority) of his god, and we will walk in the name (nature, character, & authority) of the LORD our God for ever and ever.”
John 8:44 AMP “You are of your father, the devil, and it is your will to practice the lusts and gratify the desires [which are characteristic] of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a falsehood, he speaks what is natural to him, for he is a liar [himself] and the father of lies and of all that is false.”
Galatians 5:26 NKJ “And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.”
Genesis 2:7 NIV “The LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.”
I Corinthians 15:47-48 “The first man is of the earth, earthy: the second man is the Lord from heaven. As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.”
Genesis 3: 14 NIV “So the LORD God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this, “Cursed are you above all the livestock and all the wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life.”
I Peter 5:8-9 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
The fruits of Satan’s hatred towards men are seen in the manner that he treats men, constantly tormenting their thoughts with anxiety, bitterness, stress, depression, paranoia, confusion, anger, loneliness, uncertainty, malice, unforgiveness, as well as all manner of fears. The children of the earth are blind to see that they are kept in bondage to these miserable and wicked thoughts because they continue to walk in the desires of the Devil to judge one another, to slander one another, to argue with one another, to find fault with one another, to accuse one another, to envy one another, to blame one another, to condemn one another, and even kill one another. Is it not written, “By your mouth you shall be justified, and by your mouth you shall be condemned”? What greater spell can a man put on his own head than by speaking the words that give these forces of Darkness to freely enter into their hearts and minds? How much more deceitful can this spell be, seeing that all those who judge, accuse, and condemn others are confident they are righteous in the words they speak? Those who are of the dust of the earth are blind to see that the works of witchcraft against themselves come forth out of their own mouths. In their blindness, they are only casting spells upon their own selves; for all they who judge, speak evil, and accuse others are only bring condemnation on their own heads. Love does not judge, nor think evil of any, and neither does it condemn. No force of Darkness shall be able to touch mine because I have sealed them with my Spirit of my love. I Am love, and those who are mine walk in the desires of their Father Love. Through the daily cross, they have escaped out of the valley where Satan is now devouring his own. I will say again, “Love does not judge; love just loves.” Those who do not judge, they shall not be judged or condemned. What you see in the valley of Megiddo is Satan devouring his own because he hates his own.
Revelation 12:10-12 NKJ “Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, “Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the Devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”
John 8:10-12 “When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, “Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said to her, “Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more.” Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”
I Corinthians 3:1-3 NKJ “And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to babes in Christ. I fed you with milk and not with solid food; for until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able; for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?”
Matthew 7:1,2 AMP “DO NOT judge and criticize and condemn others, so that you may not be judged and criticized and condemned yourselves. For just as you judge and criticize and condemn others, you will be judged and criticized and condemned, and in accordance with the measure you [use to] deal out to others, it will be dealt out again to you.”
Job 15:6 NIV “Your own mouth condemns you, not mine; your own lips testify against you.”
Matthew 12: 37 NKJ “For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”
Romans 2:1 NKJ “Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.
Zephaniah 3:15 “The LORD hath taken away thy judgments, he hath cast out thine enemy: the king of Israel, even the LORD, is in the midst of thee: thou shall not see evil any more.”
Just then, something strange began to happen. I felt like time was folding up all around me, in a fashion just like a piece of paper would being folded up, one piece over another, over and over. It was as if in a moment, minutes had passed, but it was also as if hours, and days, and even many, many years had also passed in that same moment. I then realized that there was no way possible for me to determine just how long the elect had been resting on top of their mountains. Some could have been there for many, many years, while others for only just a few minutes. Even so, it felt as though they had all been there for the same amount of time. It was as if an hour was a day, and a day was as a year. It was certainly something that I do not have the intelligence of the understanding to explain. I did perceive that this spacing of time was something along the lines of that which is written in II Peter 3:8-9 “But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” I still do not know exactly what the Lord was trying to show me other than time is not a law that has any power over God; for God only dwells in the now.
My attention was still focused on these men at the top of the mountains when I heard a loud voice come from heaven with a shout saying, “Arise”. Then all that had been resting stood up; and when they stood up, there came a loud explosion of brilliant light that shined from the tops of all these mountains. Though there were many explosions, it appeared as though there was only one huge one. Then the glory of God shined upon each one of these men, and they were all transfigured and gloried as the Sons of the Light. I saw that the glory of God first shined upon them, but then this same brilliant light began to shine out of them. The brilliance and the brightness of the glory that arose upon them was far greater than the glory that I had seen upon the heavenly hosts that were waiting at the base of the mountains. I have heard prophesied before that a greater glory was coming, and I was now convinced of that. I then observed that when this explosion of light occurred, the men in the valley as well as the forces of Darkness, they all quickly responded by turning their heads instantly towards the mountains that were around them. The men seemed to respond to this event in a manner that was similar to how the men that where with Paul on that road to Damascus responded when the glory of God shined upon him; with a sudden great fear. I then observed that even though there was no man that could discern what had just happened, all of the forces of Darkness knew exactly what had happened because they all trembled in great fear “knowing” what had happened.
Isaiah 60:1 “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.”
Matthew 17:1-7 “And after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up into an high mountain apart. And there he was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was as white as the light. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here: if you are willing, let us make here three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. While he was speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.”
Acts 9:3-7 “And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven: And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” And he said, “Who are you, Lord?” And the Lord said, “I am Jesus whom you persecute: it is hard for you to kick against the pricks”. And he trembled and was astonished and said, “Lord, what will you have me to do?” And the Lord said to him, “Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told you what you must do”. And the men who journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.”
II Thessalonians 1:10 “And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that do not know God, and that do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power, when he shall come to be glorified in his saints…”
Hebrews 3: 18-19 NIV “And to whom did God swear that they would never enter his rest if not to those who disobeyed? So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief.”
Romans 8:18-22 “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. For the earnest expectation of the creature waits for the manifestation of the sons of God; for the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now.”
I then realized that the Sons of God had just seen Jesus in all of his present glory, and then they were transfigured into the exact likeness of Jesus, just like the scriptures prophesied that we would. I could clearly see that the perfection of God’s love had risen upon them. I then remembered that the Lord had said to me, “I Am love, and I possess power.” I then perceived that all of these had not only been glorified in the perfection of Father’s love, but they had also received all of the authority and power that accompanies the love of God. The most amazing thing about this explosion of light was that even though it shined forth more brightly and brilliantly than the sun, it also shined forth with more colors than you would find in a rainbow. The second thing that was amazing about this light was that the brilliance of it did not at all dim after the initial explosion, but it continued to shine brightly everywhere. The forces of Darkness, as well all those who remained in the valley cowered in great terror and fear. It reminded me of how Israel cowered in fear when Goliath appeared.
I John 3:2 NKJ “Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.”
Matthew 17:1-3 NKJ “Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves; and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.”
Then the Sons of Light turned their faces towards the valley of Megiddo, and they looked upon all of the evil and wicked works that the Darkness was inflicting and oppressing all of mankind with. They saw the great torment, great fears and paranoia, much depression and hopelessness, much worry and stress, hatred and malice everywhere, great suffering and pain, extreme bitterness, confusion and chaos, and much anger and rage. It was then that I realized that though none of the people in the valley could see that all of these wicked and evil works came forth from these forces of Darkness, the Sons of God could clearly see that they all were. Just as clearly as Jesus saw that dumb spirit that had possessed that young man to do wild and mad things, so also could the Sons of God literally see that it was these forces of Darkness that were oppressing men to do these wicked works to one another. The Sons of God could also see that it was the spirits of infirmity that were afflicting men with all manner of sicknesses and diseases. After seeing all this, the Sons of God, with one heart, began to greatly grieve for the children of men; and then their hearts were filled with great compassion for everyone of them, even for those who appeared to be the most wicked among them. Then, in one accord, they each turned and summoned their part of the heavenly host that had been waiting for this very moment; and each one of them directed the heavenly hosts to attack.
Immediately the heavenly hosts raced into the battle, and the glory of God went before them. The first thing that I saw was that as the light of the glory of God came into this valley, all of the mists or clouds of Darkness just completely dissipated. The most striking thing that I observed was just how much larger, how much stronger, and how much faster the angels of God were than the fallen angels. They were at least twice as big and tall as the demons were, and they were so much quicker that the demons that they easily ran circles around them before they could even move a foot. I then perceived that this disparity in size, in speed, and in strength came from the anointing that Father had equipped his heavenly host with just for this battle. Also, the heavenly hosts outnumbered the forces of Darkness at least 10 to 1, if not 20 to 1. It was not a grueling battle that lasted for hours or days, but rather it was a battle that could be measured in seconds. In fact, what I saw did not even look like any battle of Armageddon, but rather it looked more like a rodeo where the cowboys chase down the fleeing steers, lasso them, and then tie them up. The angels of God did not come riding on horses but rather they swooped in like hawks and eagles; and they were all swinging chains in the same manner that a cowboy swings his lasso. These angels of God immediately bound up all of the demons and wicked spirits with their chains, and they carried them all away with them. It truly was a battle that was over before it really began. I then realized that there was not one man in this valley that had been able to see what at had just happened. Even so, every man was aware that something cataclysmic had just occurred.
II Kings 6:16 “And he answered, “Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them.”
Jude 6 “And the angels which kept not their first estate but left their own habitation, he has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.”
1 Corinthians 6:3 NKJ “Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?”
John 12:31-32 Jesus said, “Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men unto me.”
I then saw that even though the oppression of the Darkness was now gone, there still remained a great residue of their wicked and evil works in the hearts and minds of all the people in the valley. I then observed that the Sons of God had been perfected and filled with the perfect love of God that blesses all, that grieves for all, that forgives all, that gives all, that cares for all, that reveals all, and that loves all now. I then remembered the time that I was taken in the Spirit, and I was allowed to come before God. I literally saw the different characteristic’s of God’s love flowing out of him as streams of different colored lights, which was exactly what I was now seeing in the lights that were now shinning forth from the Sons of God. I could clearly see the love of God in his Sons in the same physical manner that I saw in Father’s body. Then the understanding entered into me that what I was seeing was the fulfilling of that which is prophesied in Isaiah 40:5 “And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it”. I had always thought that this glory would be seen when Christ physically appeared, but now I was seeing and understanding that this glory is going to be seen when Jesus Christ manifests himself in the Sons of God. Jesus is the glory of God.
Romans 8:18 NIV “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.”
2 Thessalonians 1:9-10 NIV “They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out (see Matthew 25:1-9: the unprepared) from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.”
I then saw Sons of Gods begin to move through the valley, to begin to heal the bodies, the souls, and the spirits of all of the residue of the Darkness that remained in the hearts and minds of those left alive. I then found myself turning a corner and walking right into the midst of a large group of men that seemed to be randomly shooting and killing one another with guns. I walked right in front of them while they were still blasting away, and the bullets went through my body in the same manner as if it was passing through a cloud; no effect whatsoever. Suddenly, the eyes of all these men saw the glory of Father’s love shinning out me. Then, without me even saying one word, they all dropped their guns and just stared at the perfect love of God that desires to forgive all, that desires to bless all, that desires to cares for all, that desires to give life to all, and that loves all “now”. Great shame came upon them as they could clearly see the truth about God’s love; that he truly loves all with the same pure love. The Darkness was gone, and the curse of blindness was now lifted. Then miraculously, their bodies, their souls, and their spirits were healed of all sin, all death, all infirmity, all corruption, and all mortality. Though they were all changed and made new, they did not appear in the same glory that the Sons of God did; but I perceived that they were all changed and restored into the same likeness that Adam and Eve had before they fell.
I Corinthians 15:45 AMP “Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit [restoring the dead to life].
I then turned and faced all those around me that had been wounded or murdered. And again, through the very love of God that was shinning out of me, the dead were raised and all they that were wounded were completely healed. It was not one thing that I was doing of myself, but it was as though the love of God shinning out of me was giving life to all who saw it. Not only had their bodies been healed but so also were all the wounds that had wounded their minds also. These were also changed and made new just like the others. Of course, all of these were praising, and thanking, and worshipping God. Everywhere that I walked, as well as everywhere the Sons of God walked, the same type of scenarios were taking place over and over.
Acts 5:14-16 NKJ “And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them.16 Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.”
At the time that I was writing these things, the Lord gave my daughter Ansley this vision: A Touch of Love
Ansley: I was praying for His Heart, so that the Lord could enable me to love man in his most wicked state, and the Lord showed me how it is going to be. I saw people doing horrible things, but I just walked up to these people with pure love for them. It was a beautiful thing. The love that was in me was so sweet towards all of the people that were doing these terrible things to themselves and to others. As I got close I would touch them and speak words of love and they would be set aright. No more tormented by the demons, they were free just from the touch and the love that just rolled off of me. I would touch the victim and they would be healed from the horror of what had been done to them.
The next thing I saw was I was walking into like a hostage situation. There was absolutely no fear in me, just the sweet love of Jesus. I walked through bullets and went to the gunman who was just insane, and he kept shooting at me. I then touched him and smiled at him. He fell to his knees and wept. I just held him. He knew that Jesus loved him. They all did. I wish that I could describe the love because it was just so pure and so sweet; incredibly sweet.
The Lord told me that just as there is coming an acceleration in his Spirit, so also is there coming an acceleration of evil. Then I saw the mountains that Dad had spoken of in the valley of Megiddo where the saints are. I saw us climbing this mountain when I suddenly felt this gentle wind come and take us; and we rode the wind up to the top of the mountain. In no time at all we were at the top. End of Ansley’s vision.
1 John 4:16-20 “And we have known and believed the love that God has towards us. God is love; and he that dwells in love dwells in God, and God in him. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the Day of Judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love. We love him, because he first loved us. If a man says, “I love God”, and he hates (thinks evil of) his brother, he is a liar: for he that loves not his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?”
I then walked into some kind of office building, into a room that had 6 or 7 people that were busy working. When I entered into that room, they all turned to look at me, and as soon as they did, they all began to vomit up what looked like thick streams of liquid tar or heavy black oil. Even though these were streams were as heavy as tar or oil, they would only project out about 2 feet before they would completely dissipate in the light of the glory of God that was shinning out of me. The Lord then spoke to me and said, “This is the pride and the self-righteousness of man. No man is able to receive of my love that is infected with these abominations. All shall see, all shall be healed, and all shall be able to receive my love. Then all who were in that office building were changed just like all of the rest were. Again, I was just walking around the streets of that city, and all who were sick or diseased were instantly healed as soon as they looked on the glory of God’s love. For the first time, I was really beginning to grasp that Jesus really meant what he said, “The works that I do, you will do greater.”
Then I was again taken in the Spirit into midst of this old, low income, government housing complex that has a bad reputation for crime and drugs. I found that I was no longer walking through the midst of these apartments, but rather I was hovering between 15 and 20 feet above the ground. Even though it was around midnight, the glory of God was still brilliantly shinning out of me, lighting up the entire place as though it was the middle of the day. People began pouring out of their apartments, and I was speaking the gospel of the kingdom with power. Every word that I was speaking was immediately coming to pass in that very moment; and every word that I spoke kept bringing forth eternal life into the bodies of all those who were before me. Again, they were all changed and made new, just like all of the others. I then realized why the scriptures say that prophesy will be done away when the perfect love of God comes, and that is because there is no foretelling of what “is going” to happen because the words spoken actually come to past as soon as they come forth.
I Corinthians 15:45 AMP “Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit [restoring the dead to life].
I Corinthians 13:8-10 NIV “Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.”
Then an incredible thing happened to me. In the very same moment that I quit speaking to these people, and faster than a spilt second, I suddenly found myself about 35 miles away from where I had just been. I then asked, “Lord, what was that all about? How did you do that?” The Lord answered me and said, “As long as you are surrendered to my will, to love and be loved, then be prepared to travel at the speed of thought. If you desire to move with my love, then my love will move you as she is moved.” Whoa! Now that is the way to travel, being able to traverse miles, or continents, or the earth, or universes, or even heaven itself at the speed of thought: awesome.
Acts 8:39-40 NKJ “Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing. But Philip was found at Azotus (at least 20 miles from Philip at been the moment before) And passing through, he preached in all the cities till he came to Caesarea.”
I just meditating on the Lord one morning when the Lord gave me a vision of the most perfectly grilled porterhouse steak. Now steak is one of my most favorite of all foods; so at first, I thought that this vision came to by my own imagination. But when the vision did not go away, I realized that it was a vision. I then asked the Lord what he trying to show to me. The Lord then spoke to me and said, “How many people do you want to feed with this steak: 5,000? 50,000? 5,000,000? The power, and the authority, and the love is going to be given to you to bless multitudes.” Of course, the first thought that came into my mind was of the time that Jesus had the authority to feed the 5,000 with a couple fish and few loaves of bread. Then the Lord showed me that the currency of the kingdom of God is going to be “blessings”. I was really blessed when the Lord then showed to me that I would not be blessings others with bread and water, but with that which was the best.
The kingdom of God is coming, and it is now a lot closer than any of us really believe. It is a kingdom that is unlike any kingdom that has ever been on earth. There will be no more presidents, or czars, or dictators. There will be no more money as we know it, nor love of money. There will be no more corruption. There will be no more arrogance or pride to be offended. There will be no more hypocrisy or pretenses. There will be no more lies, or deceit, or falsehood of any kind. There will be no more arguments, or fighting, or warfare. There will be no more envy or jealousy. There will be no more threats or intimidations. There will be no more accusations, or pointing of the finger, or slander, or judging others, or condemnation. There will be no more disappointments or failures. There will be no more embarrassments, or shame, or guilt. There will be no rejections or loneliness. There will be no more boredom or worthlessness. There will be no more fears or dreads of any kind. There will be no more sickness, diseases, decay, deafness, blindness, or oldness. There will be no more betrayals or broken promises. There will be no more pain, or sorrow, or grief, or suffering. There will be no more feelings of loss or good-byes. There will be no more darkness. There will be no more death. There will be no more curses of any kind. In other words, all that a man is familiar with in this world will not even exist in the kingdom of God.
The kingdom of God is not of this world and neither does it resemble any government of this world because there is no government of this world that has God for it’s head. It is a kingdom where the government will rest on Christ’s shoulders, and it is God’s head that rests upon his shoulders. The body is Christ’s, and his Spirit shall continually be in the hearts and minds of the Sons of God and the children of God; for Jesus Christ is the law of life that shall rule over his body. The presence of God will be everywhere; the presence that will eternally bring forth abundant life and purpose for all. No longer will God say your thoughts are not my thoughts; for joy, trust, peace, excitement, goodness, blessings, faith, care, humility, belief, and love will be as natural in your thinking as Satan’s thoughts of evil, fear, pride, accusations, worry, doubt, sadness, and stress were when you were carnally minded, because God shall be your head. Love will be the law of the kingdom, but it will not be as a law that his children shall have to make an effort to obey or to serve because the desires of love shall be written in the hearts and minds of all. All will be of their Father God, and the desires of his love shall be that which they yearn to do. Love cannot rejoice unless it can be received; and all shall delight in receiving love from all. In the kingdom of God, there will be no more vying for attention because all shall have great value and purpose because all will love and be greatly loved. The currency of the kingdom of God is the love that blesses; for love desires to freely give. There will be no lack or need anywhere in the kingdom because God.
Impossible will not be found in the thoughts of the children of God because love believes that all things are possible. There will be no thought that shall not come to pass because all thoughts will be in agreement with Father’s love. There shall be no word spoken that shall not be performed. There will be no musical instrument that cannot be played by all, and neither will there be any imagination that cannot be created. Nothing will be done for one’s own accomplishment, but everything will be done for the enjoyment of fellowship and life with Father God and his son Jesus Christ.
John 18:36 NKJ “Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here.”
Matthew 6:33 NKJ “But seek first the kingdom of God…”
Luke 17:20-21 AMP “Asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He replied to them by saying, The kingdom of God does not come with signs to be observed or with visible display, nor will people say, “Look! Here [it is]!” or, “See, [it is] there!” For behold, the kingdom of God is within you [in your hearts] and among you [surrounding you].”
Romans 14:17-18 NIV “For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.”
1 Corinthians 4:20-21 NIV “For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power.”
Hebrews 12:25-29 NKJ “See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” Now this, "Yet once more," indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.”
Your destiny, as well as my destiny, it all lies in our own hands. The destiny of all mankind lies now lies in the hands of the Sons of God.
Your fate and your destiny, as well as my fate and my destiny, is in our own hands. Not to long ago I would have completely disagreed with statement, declaring that my fate as well as my destiny were in the hands of God. Then the Lord revealed to me that he determined our destiny before the beginning of this world, that we should all be conformed to the image of his son Jesus Christ. Whether we fulfill our destiny is our choice; for God has given to each one of the freedom to choose what we are going to believe. What we choose to believe will then determine our own fate. Armageddon is truly the last battle; the last great battle for that which men will choose to believe. I do not know how any Christian could think that this battle would be between flesh and blood see that the scriptures reveal that our battle is only with powers and principalities, rulers of the Darkness, and wicked spirits in the high place of our minds, with Christ himself casting out every imagination of thought that contends and opposes the counsels of his words. There is only one thing that Satan and God have in common, and that is that they both desire to have each one of us. Satan comes to deceive with words that flesh desires to hear; Jesus comes speaking the words of Father’s love that the soul desires to here. One tempts you with his desires to judge, to accuse, to condemn, and curse, while the other desires to show mercy, forgive, and bless. The battle of Armageddon takes place between a man’s ears.
Ephesians 6:10-13 NKJ “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the Wiles of the Devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand.”
II Corinthians 10:4-5 “For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds, casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.”
1 Peter 2:11 “Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly desires (the desires of the Devil to accuse), which war against the soul.”
After the working of all of Satan’s deceitful lies, then comes Jesus Christ to manifest the glory of his love to those who have overcome all of Satan’s lies. All of Satan’s lies hide in the blindness of men so that they cannot discern his true intention to minister his hatred to them. The light of God’s perfect love will then come be manifested in the Sons of God for all to see, because there is intent in the love of God that he desires to keep hidden. Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened to see the love of God in Christ Jesus manifest his Sons. To see Jesus is to see the light of the truth of God’s love; and the truth of his love is that which sets men free from the blindness of the Darkness. As the Lord said, “I came into this world to give sight to the blind, to turn them from Darkness to Light, from the power of Satan to the power of God. The righteousness of man is blindness, and in his blindness is the dwelling place for all sin. All of the good intentions and best efforts of men are blindness. All self-justification is blindness. Lies are blindness. Idolatry is blindness. Hypocrisy is blindness. Judging according to appearances is blindness. Unforgiveness is blindness. All of man’s doctrines, and laws, and traditions are blindness. Man’s wisdom and understanding is blindness. Opinions of God are blindness. Unwillingness is blindness. Unbelief and doubts are blindness. Fears are blindness. Anxiety and worry are blindness. Hopelessness is blindness. Confusion is blindness. Strife and divisions are blindness. Arguments are blindness. Intimidation and control are blindness. Hatred is blindness. Fornication and adultery are blindness. Envy is blindness. Bitterness is blindness. The desires of the flesh, the desires of the eyes and the pride of man is blindness.
Ephesians 4:17-18 “This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind, having the understanding darkened, being alienated from the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.”
All blindness is sin because blindness is the vision of the Darkness that seems right. They have eyes, but they do not see! Blindness is man’s captivity to sin. The kingdoms of this world are ruled by the Darkness that blinds. When blindness is removed, then shall Daniel’s seventy weeks be fulfilled, the eyes of all will be opened to see him, and sin shall come to it’s end. All shall see the Lord arise in all of his glory in the Sons of God, and when they see him, all shall know him, and the love that God has for them. Never again shall there be a kingdom of this world, nor any remembrance of it, after the light of the everlasting kingdom of God shines forth in the brilliant righteousness of God’s love”, says the Lord. After the Lord showed me all these things, I then a voice come from heaven, whether it came from God or from an angel, I do not know, but it said, “It is done; now the rulers and lords of this world have been judged and cast out. Now the Darkness has been exposed as well as the wrath that it imposed. Now the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of God”.
John 9:39-41 “And Jesus said, "For judgment I have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be made blind.” Then some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, "Are we blind also?” Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remains.”
Isaiah 60:1-3 NIV “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.
See, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the LORD rises upon you and his glory appears over you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.”
I John 3:6 NKJ “…Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.”
III John 11 NIV “…Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God.
Daniel 9:24 NJ “Seventy weeks are determined for your people and for your holy city, to finish the transgression, to make an end of sins, to make reconciliation for iniquity, to bring in everlasting righteousness, to seal up vision and prophecy, and to anoint the Most Holy.”
Now speaking for myself, what is really interesting for me to see is that when the world and the ignorant speak of these last days, they seem to only speak of the wrath of God and the apocalypse as though this word means complete and utter destruction. That is really ignorant to use this word in this way because apocalypse means “revelation”. The only thing that revelation can possibly destroy is the blindness of ignorance; the ignorance that blinds the eyes of all so that they cannot see, or know, or understand the love that God has for all of his creation. This apocalypse will occur in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, when God manifest the glory of his love to all the world through his Sons. It is in that moment that the Darkness of this world will be judged, all blindness removed, and all Gentiles shall see.
The Wrath of God & The Wrath of Satan
Why is that no one seems to be able to connect the wrath of Satan with these last days, seeing that it is only desires to do evil to man? Other than wisdom be taken from the carnally minded, the also Lord showed to me that there is one more thing that will make separate this time from all other troublesome times, and that is since the beginning of time, mankind has never been caught between both the wrath of Satan and the wrath of God. The Lord has brought forth several words recently in which he says that the gates of grace are now beginning to close in heaven. Even so, man is still not without some hope, and that is because God is transferring the love and authority of his kingdom from heaven to earth, to the Sons of God; and all the works, the blessings, the gifts, and the grace of Father’s love will no longer come from above but from earth. The scriptures are about to be fulfilled, that his kingdom comes, and his will be done on earth as it is in heaven; and it is the will of God for all men to be saved, and for all to love and be loved.
God has chosen us to make us to be ministers and priests….to him. I never really could comprehend how any of us could actually function as a minister or a priest to the almighty God, but the Lord recently changed my thinking. What I am about to share has certainly confirmed to me that old saying that God works in mysterious ways, and it will also begin to reveal some of the impact that the Sons of God are going to have in the days of the wrath of God and the wrath of Satan. First, of all we all know that it is impossible for God to lie. Secondly, we all know that the scriptures reveal and describe the judgments of God, as well as the wrath that will come against those who refuse and reject him. It is for this reason that we would all do well to reverence and tremble before our God who is a consuming fire.
The Lord woke me up one morning at 3 am, which is the time that Father usually wakes me up when he has something specific to speak to me. I went to pray and said, “Father, I am here; speak.” The Lord then gave me a vision where I could see the entire city of Dallas, Texas. I have never been to Dallas, Texas, nor do I even know anyone in Dallas. In fact, I do not even know how I knew that the city that I was seeing in this vision was Dallas, except that the Spirit of the Lord told me that it was.
The next thing that I saw in this vision was the night sky, and coming out of the darkness was this incredibly large tsunami like wave of fire. It looked just like a large wave that was violently churning and constantly breaking; except it did not consist of water, but fire. The face of this wave of fire was at least 200 feet tall, and it could just as easily be at least 500 feet tall seeing that I did not have much to measure it’s height against. Then the Lord told that this was the wrath of God, and it was headed for Dallas. My heart immediately sank with despair and hopelessness for Dallas because I knew that there was nothing that would be able to save this city from this wave of fire. I also felt extremely helpless because I could see that the speed this wave of fire was moving so rapidly towards Dallas, there was not even enough time for me to go and warn the inhabitants to immediately flee, much less to warn them to repent. I was grieved beyond description, wanting desperately for the Lord to bring this vision to an end so that I would not have watch what was going to happen.
Suddenly the Lord spoke to me and said, “Mitt, what would be easier for you to do; to go to Dallas before my wrath comes, and change the minds, or for you to come to me and ask me to change my mind?” What? Surely I did not hear what I just thought I heard the Lord say. Nevertheless, I answered, “Lord, you are God Almighty; I am but a man. Who am I to think that I could ever change your mind?” The Lord then answered me and said, “Did not Moses and Aaron change my mind? Were they not able to avert the wrath of the judgment that I had decreed?” As soon as I heard how the Lord answered me, I said, “Wow, Lord, they did. By their request and supplication, and by your mercy, you undid the wrath of the judgment that you had decreed and purposed.” I have not ceased from that moment to this day to offer up supplications and prayers, day and night, for Dallas, Texas. I now that there is not one man or woman that lives in Dallas that even has a clue that a man in South Carolina is praying for them in this manner. But that is okay, because God would not have taught me how to pray in this matter if he was not going to hear my prayers.
It is like God, in the midst of his anger and wrath, needs someone to minister to the grace of his love, reminding him of his mercy. With my measly little understanding, I could not think of another reason why the Lord would come to me and actually give me the prayers that will lead him to change his mind, and turn away his wrath away from an entire city. Recently a man quoted that which a friend of his said to him, “It has to come to pass because it is written”; and I perceived that that because of the context that it was spoken in, that he was speaking of the judgments and the wrath of God. I then remembered that the scriptures also say that mercy triumphs over judgment; like God is giving to us a trump card, a card that can be used for his mercy to triumph over his judgment. The only thing required of those who use it is for them to believe that the mercy of his love is greater than the wrath of his anger. I then began to understand that one of the greatest impacts the Sons of God are going to have in these last days is minister to the Lord, to turn the wrath of God away through their prayers and supplications. I then remembered the third seal: The Forgiveness of God’s love”; and that the justice of the Lord is forgiveness.
Jeremiah 5:1 ASV “Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that doeth justly, that seeks truth; and I will pardon her.”
Recently I got a prayer request from a woman on my mailing list. She began by explaining that she had two sons. The oldest son owned a restaurant/pub. It was mainly a family type restaurant until around 9 pm; then it changed into a pub that was visited mostly by local people. She then explained that one evening, several people came to the pub that had had a little to much to drink. Her oldest son then called his younger brother and asked him to come and help out, like being a bouncer if needed. As it turned out, nothing rowdy occurred. Then after closing, when the younger son was beginning to drive away from the restaurant, he stopped at stop sign. When he did not see any cars coming in any direction, he began to drive straight ahead. As soon as he pulled out, a motorcycle appeared speeding from his left. He immediately turned his car to the right as fast as he could, but the motorcycle still hit him in the driver’s door. If he had not been able to turn lie he did, the motorcycle would crashed directly into his door. But because he had turned, the motorcycle bounced off of the door. His airbag deployed, and this woman’s son was okay; but the driver of the motorcycle was killed.
Then shortly after this accident, this woman and her family found out that the man who got killed had a brother that was what is called a “full-patch” Hell’s Angel. “Full-patch” in some gangs means that you completely all initiations, including have actually killed someone. Then they heard that this man was “rolling” to their town. In some gangs, when one rolls, they all roll, especially when it is a full patch member. This entire e-mail dripped with fear, and at first I thought this woman was going to ask for me to pray for her, that the Lord would deliver her from her fears and give her the faith that he was completely in control over this situation. Instead, she just asked for me to pray and ask the Lord for me to protect her family. Later on, when I was praying, I began to ask the Lord for his mercy and to intervene on behalf of this woman and her family.
Suddenly the Lord spoke to me a said, “I do not want you to pray for this family’s protection, but rather I want you to pray and ask me to protect the “Hell’s Angels”. Whoa! I then paused and meditated on what the Lord had just asked of me, and immediately the vision of the “Valley of Megiddo” came into my mine, where I saw carnally minded man carrying out Satan’s plans against other carnally minded men. I then realized that this scenario was the perfect situation that could open the door and allow for Satan and/or his demons to come forth with his counsels that would instruct these Hell’s angels to kill, steal, or destroy. I then realized that if the Lord protected the Hell’s Angels from these wicked and evil counsels, then this woman’s family would also be protected. So I began to pray exactly according to what Father had asked of me, that his love would protect the Hell’s Angels from the angels from hell. Awesome! I then started to e-mail this woman and tell her how the Lord instructed me to pray in this matter, but the Lord stopped me saying, “Because of her fears, she will not be able to hear or receive this word at this moment.”
Several days went by with me anxiously checking to see if this woman had sent me an e-mail testifying of what the Lord had done. I knew that whatever this woman’s fears were prophesying in her imaginations, they were only going to be nothing but lies sent to torment her. I knew that the Lord would not have given to me the instructions of how to pray unless the love of Father God fully intended to protect these Hell’s Angels. Then about 5 days later, I got an e-mail from this woman, and to my surprise, it was another prayer request about some other situation. I immediately e-mailed her back, asking her to share with me what had happened in this situation with the Hell’s Angel. She then sent me an e-mail that basically said, “Oh, that. Well, the guy came to house all by himself. He was really friendly and sat in the living room with is. He then began to describe to us that his brother had a big drinking problem, and that his entire family tried to help him, but without any results. Then when this guy was leaving, he gave her husband a hug, and then shook hands with her son. End of e-mail.
I was really surprised that there was no mention of God, nor was there any giving of thanks for the way that this event had turned out, especially after having her fears forecast this certain doom and gloom situation. The love of God had turned this situation into a “non-event”; an event where the counsels of the forces of Darkness were not able to come forth to torment and trouble. Even though this woman did not know it, I knew what God’s love had just done for all them, and I praised and thanked him for turning this situation into a non-event; an event where none of Satan’s wrath could come forth to kill, or to steal, or to destroy. Glory be to God for his love; the love that allows his power to intervene and help us.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NKJ “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
I have just testified of two separate events that the Lord has allowed for me to partake in: the wrath of God that was/is coming to Dallas, and the wrath of Satan that was desiring to come against the Hell’s Angels and this family. In both of these instances, all the Lord taught me to do was to intercede and pray; but the intercession and prayer that allows for Father to show himself great and mighty in power, as well as to show forth the greatness of his mercy and the grace of his love. This is the hour that God is raising up a very interesting priesthood; a priesthood that will minister to the mercies and grace of Father’s love, that will stand in the gap, that will pray for the justice of forgiveness to come to entire cities, and that will be battling against all the forces of Darkness for the souls of all men. The fate of all men is soon to rest in the hands of the Sons of God, and it is for that reason that God is going to perfect them in his love and empower them with all of his authority. If all Father desired to do was to manifest his sons, then it would have pleased him greatly to manifest them in heaven, in his presence. But God is manifesting his Sons on earth so that he might recover his creation from all the blindness that the Darkness has ruled over his creation with. The Lord has performed many wonderful works on my behalf. He has changed my heart and transformed the thoughts in my mind. He has cast out my fears, and I have seen demons cast out. I myself have received two physical healings from the Lord. As wonderful as these blessings are, and they are all surely wonderful, I would still not dare put any of these works into the category of the “great and mighty” works of God; miracles yes, but great and mighty, no.
When I see mercy triumphing over the judgments that have been written in the very scriptures themselves, and love triumphing over certain death and destruction, then I rejoice at being allowed to witness the move of the great and mighty works of Father’s love. It was written in the law that anyone who committed adultery should be stone to death, and the judges and accusers love to satisfy their desires to do just that. But God, through his son Jesus Christ, showed to the world that the grace of his love is greater than the laws that are written. When Moses and Aaron cried out for mercy on behalf of Israel because of the curses that God sent upon them for disobeying his words, again the grace of Father’s love prevailed. Many times I myself have cried out to the Lord when the lies of Darkness told me that God could not forgive me for the evil that I had done, yet Father has not once failed to show me the grace and mercy of his love when he forgave me.
This is the hour that Satan has set out to bewitch all who are carnally minded to play his game. This is the hour that evil, and corruption, and wickedness, and falsehood, and injustice, and perversion have already been increasing, and will increase until the beast is fully manifest. This is the hour that Satan is going to tempt all to do as he does when he stands before the throne of God, to point the finger, and judge, and accuse all of their wicked and evil deeds. Those who fall to his witchcraft will be then find themselves in the valley of Megiddo, being unmercifully assaulted by the forces of Darkness. What greater witchcraft can be cast upon the souls of men than to be bewitched into believing the lies that entice men into doing the very deed (to judge and accuse) that will bring condemnation and destruction upon their own heads. Love never points the finger, or judges, or accuse. Those who are enticed to play Satan’s game in this hour will soon find themselves in the valley of Megiddo, where flesh and blood will be battling flesh and blood, as objects of Satan’s wrath. If it were possible, even the very elect who are being sealed in God’s love, would also be deceived to play his game. Those who God perfects in love will not battle against flesh and blood, but they will battle for the souls of all those who have been overcome by Satan’s lies.
God is presently raising up a priesthood of believers; a priesthood of lovers because it is love that believes all things. These are they that will glory in knowing and understanding a Father’s love for them, as well as the love that God has for all men. These are they who will not see the wickedness and evil that men do, but they will see the Darkness oppressing men to do wickedly and evil. Even though the world or religion may not know who these are, God knows them because they are continuously before him, interceding for others, worshipping and praising him, and blessing and ministering to the Lord himself. Their impact may not yet be known, but the results of their priesthood will be experienced by all. Though no one may yet know exactly who these are, God is about to manifest them; not to show off to the world how special this priesthood is that he has raised up, but so that the world may see in them the love of God that is in Christ Jesus; the love that is able to love and care for men when they may be in the most wicked and evil state that men can be in; even when they are Hell’s Angels. The world cannot change until the blindness that covers the hearts and minds of men is first removed. Then shall the eyes of men be opened, and they shall be turned from Darkness to Light, from the power of Satan to the power of God. The revelation of the perfect love of God, manifest in his Sons, is that which will soon come forth to accomplish and finish this very work. Then shall the hearts and minds of all be changed who see the Sons of God. Then shall the world be changed, and the kingdoms of this world shall be become the kingdoms of God. Then shall it be finished.
Jeremiah 9:23-24 “Thus says the LORD: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom. Let not the mighty man glory in his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches. But let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,” says the LORD.
Revelation 21:6-7 “And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcomes shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.”
I have now testified of all that which the Lord has revealed to me concerning how the Lord is preparing his people to receive him in these last days. I have come to see that this world is only able to exist, even though it is compassed fully in Darkness, because of the love that has for all of us. The longsuffering, the forbearance, and the patience of God’s love cannot be measured or understood by any; for how God has endured a world and even his own people who walk in unbelief, in love of self, in doubts, in reasonings and logic, in rebellion, in mocking, in pride, in being afraid to approach God, in division and strife, as well as every other wicked and evil characteristic that comes forth from the enmity of the carnal mind, is far beyond any comprehension that I have. It is easy to for to understand for ourselves the word that says, “God loved us when we did not love him.”; but do we understand that this truth, the God loves all men, even when their hearts and minds are in the most wicked and evil state they could ever be in; even towards their Creator and Maker? Truly, our victory is found in his love; and now that victory is soon going to come forth for all when that same love is manifest in the Sons of God. Oh, how awesome God’s love is that commands his mercies to stand forever.
Now it begins…for now there is nothing restraining God from performing any of his words, seeing that he has been revealing all of his secrets to his prophets in this hour.
May the Lord greatly bless you with hope, increase your faith, and cause you to abound in belief of his words, that you may be raised up in the fullness of his glory, and be like unto him, for all the world to see him.
“Father, as your word is, so let it be done unto us.”
