"The Earth is Mine", Says the Lord

A spiritual shift has taken place. Things are not as they once were. God is saying, "Hey, the earth is Mine and the fullness of it, and I'm setting up My Kingdom on it!" We are on new ground and new instructions are being given. Instructions to let God be God. Our assignment is humility and trust.
 

"My son, do not forget my law, but let your heart keep my commands. For length of days and long life and peace they will add to you.  Let not mercy and truth forsake you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart, and so, find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones. Honor the Lord with your possessions, and with the firstfruits of all your increase; so your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will overflow with new wine. My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, nor detest His correction; for whom the Lord loves He corrects, just as a father the son in whom he delights." -- Proverbs 3: 1-12

God is sending warnings and direction words from Heaven. There is a huge shaking going on, and more is coming. We are being asked to leave things and embrace things, departing from evil and turning to God with all of our hearts. Daily dependency on Him is not a suggestion; it is essential. God is setting His order on this earth that belongs to Him.


Seek Righteousness, Seek Humility
 

"Seek the Lord, all you meek of the earth, Who have upheld His justice. Seek righteousness, seek humility. It may be that you will be hidden In the day of the Lord's anger." -- Zephaniah 2:3
 

Righteousness and humility won't seek us out; we must seek them out. The word "seek" literally means "to go in search of." There is a strong purification coming to this land. God is setting His order. Unity, purity and humility will be the standard set in the earth.

"For then, I will restore to the peoples a pure language, that they all may call on the name of the Lord, to serve Him with one accord. From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia My worshipers, the daughter of My dispersed ones, shall bring My offering. In that day, you shall not be shamed for any of your deeds In which you transgress against Me; for then, I will take away from your midst, those who rejoice in your pride, and you shall no longer be haughty In My holy mountain. I will leave in your midst, a meek and humble people, and they shall trust in the name of the Lord." -- Zephaniah 3:9

Unity brings strength. As we come together in unity, God commands His blessing. We become strong, as His body purposes to be single minded, honoring and preferring one another. Our intent is to bring about the Kingdom of God in this land, joining our strength and vision with the strength and vision of others. Not depending on ourselves alone, but actually seeking out others to be joined to.

Purity gives us the ability to see God. We need to see God, in these days. If we see Him, He can instruct us. If we see Him, we can understand His ways and do what we see Him do. That is what Jesus did on the earth. He only did what He saw the Father do, and the power was with Him to heal and deliver. When we allow God to pull things out of us that we are blinded to, our eyes become opened and our vision is not hindered.

Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God (Matthew 5:8).

Humility opens the door for God's nearness and embrace. He is near to those who are of a broken and contrite heart (Psalm 34:18). Humility brings God's presence, pride causes His resistance. It is a very fearful thing to be resisted by God in this hour. Humility takes the pressure off of us and puts it on God. When God is near, there is comfort in the midst of the storm. He is the source of all comfort. It is also where the fullness of joy is, and the joy of the Lord is our strength.


New Assignments

A repositioning is taking place -- promotions and demotions. God puts down one and raises another up. There are new watchmen being assigned to certain places on the wall for specific vision and authority. These watchmen will sound alarms of warning and shouts of victory. Intercessors are receiving much more strategic words and insights, as the mysteries are being revealed and uncovered.

Many are being ushered into the war room of Heaven at this time. Old prophets are training new prophets who have the Elisha anointing to accomplish double in this hour. Teachers are receiving specific assignments to instruct those who have teachable hearts, and these who are taught will teach others. Children will astound us with what comes out of their mouths. They really will be used of God to lead us at times. Foolish things are going to confound the wise.


New Allegiance

In the next few months, there will be a re-alignment of allegiance. True prophetic voices are arising, totally exposing the false ones that have held so many people captive. God is getting ready to release the Josephs and Daniels of our day, to stand in strategic places and deliver the word of the Lord. Whole movements and church structures are going to choose who they will follow.

"Therefore, fear the Lord and worship Him in sincerity and truth. Get rid of the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and worship the Lord. But if it doesn't please you to worship the Lord, choose for yourselves today the one you will worship: the gods your fathers worshiped beyond the Euphrates River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living. As for me and my family, we will worship the Lord." -- Joshua 24:14

It will become very clear, who is listening to the voice of the Lord and who
is listening to the voice of another. As God's servants, the prophets,  speak, the ears of the truly spiritually hungry will listen intently. Many are in the valley of decision in this hour, and the voice of the Lord is shouting from Heaven to deliver and save. But, make no mistake, those who speak for God in these days will abide by a much stricter standard. It is important that we choose not to despise prophesying in this hour.


Everything We do in God is Tandem

Exceedingly abundant above what we dare ask or think. Healings, miracles, signs in the heavens, and wonders on the earth -- this is the greatest display of God's power the earth has ever seen, and we can do whatever He asks us to do, if we know He has strapped Himself to us.

Even in the midst of purification and purging, God is sending us out into dark places to display His light and life. Faith silences the mouth of fear, and we can move boldly into places He has designed for us to go. The volunteers of the Katrina hurricane disaster demonstrated the heart of God in their determination to risk their own safety to bring help to those who couldn't help themselves.

It's hard to think that other things will come upon our land like this hurricane, but we are all feeling that other things will happen. Matthew 24 is pretty specific about the end times. The warnings are going out, but God is preparing Himself an army of men and women, young and old, that He can mobilize in these days of uncertainty. There are a few things to keep in front of us:

1. Increased levels of faith are being imparted that require increased
action on our part. Faith really pleases God.
2. Our comfort will increase, as we put our ears to His mouth and listen
to His words -- daily bread, not day old bread.
3. We have to move in and occupy the secret place of the most High.
4. As we repent and rest, we will be saved, and quietness and trust
will be our strength (Isaiah 30:15 NAS).


The Lord is on His throne -- Majestic and Mighty. He will not be moved.
 

Bless you,
