Blessings and peace upon you this day. As promised, here are the words that were given on Februrary 25th and now available for your spiritual edification.
Be blessed and may these words uplift your spirit and prompt you to stand on His direction as we move forward building for His kingdom.
Love,
Sister K.D....
Turn from evil and do good.
Be holy and righteous in all your ways and you will be rewarded. For at this time I am raising up a new people that will bring new ways in an old system. A system once ran by the forces of evil. Take my scepter of righteousness and walk in victory into the land I have promised your forefathers to this day. For I am passing a torch engulfed with flames of fire that will consume the land. This is my spirit I speak unto you. With power, might and joy the righteous will inherit my promises.
Like the olive, I press and like the wheat, I sift to produce a refined version that can be of use to many and for the many ways I have purposed. Each season there is labor to gather the harvest of those who have faithfully allowed my pressing. Faithfully allow my sifting.
Do you not know that it is for your good and not for your harm? Where is your faith? If it is in lack, ask me for more faith. Ask and it will be given unto you. Receive when it has been given. So many reject what has been given out of their own comfort within a season. I say unto you this day, the sun knows when to set and the moon knows when to rise. That which I have touched does not perform out of comfort. No, that which I have touched performs out of obedience. Abide in me and rest in knowing that I have your comfort. Your comfort rests in me alone.
Those that have ears to hear, hear these words and receive them.
Yours will be a delightful land.
Scripture meditation:
Psalm 131, Psalm 124, Psalm 125, Psalm 126, Psalm 128
I received these words a few days ago and now have a bit of time to post. There are more words that came yesterday. I'll post those this weekend, if there is time...
When will you surrender all?
You are trying to save this in your own strength but my house is built on The Cornerstone.
Where have you been lately?
I watch your routine but where is your heart? What happened to ears that hear me?
This is a season of humilty and eating my Word. I am requesting more of you at this time. Yes, you are learning but you are not drawing your strength from me completely.
Do you think I would let my house fall? You think that the inevitable storms will tumble the House of the Lord?
When you draw neigh to me, when you draw deep to me and listen, there is revelation. The door will open but it will open in a way that only they will say that I have done so.
Continue to pray fervently and seek me in the Holy of Holies.
Stand on my Word. Stand on my words and watch me move.
Malachi 3:12
It has been a whirlwind lately. The other day I went to Wednesday fellowship and it was the first time the Lord spoke through me in a church setting to the rest of the group. I had no fear under His glory and I think He obliged to the group because there was an element of expectancy during fellowship. I just let Him have His way and say whatever He wants. I still remember when the fear of speaking was so great over me... God has brought His people a long way, and the journey has not been easy, but I am grateful and remain steadfast under His refuge.
Here are words that came the other day. I was too busy to post when these words came....
Be consistent in responding with love, grace and humility.
Consistency will be key. Don't give up.
I will open the doors but you must do your part and be consistent in your responses and actions and gentle manner.
Do things without having them ask.
They will respect your initiative and you will be rewarded. The lazy are not rewarded. The dilligent worker will see their inheritance and continue to toil to possess the land and the inheritance I have given to their forefathers.
(next, this scripture came to me- Matthew 12:28-30)
Stay in my spirit. This is key. If you crucify your flesh and let my glory rest upon you through obedience and righteousness you will be able to get through this test. Stay low and abide in my vine. I will fight for you, you will hold your peace.
Amen!
How God Uses Pain
TGIF Today God Is First Volume 2, by Os Hillman
02-04-2009
"I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things" (Isa 45:7).
God will use pain in order to create a love relationship with His creation. This statement may challenge your theology. However, consider that God allowed Jesus to experience incredible pain in order to create an opportunity to have a relationship with His creation. Consider how Jesus created a relationship with Paul. He blinded him and used a crisis in his life in order to bring him into a relationship with him and use him for God's purposes. Consider how God recruited Jonah for the mission He had for him.
This is not God's first choice for His creation. Romans 2:4 reveals that God's preference is to show mercy and kindness: "Or do you show contempt for the riches of His kindness, tolerance and patience, not realizing that God's kindness leads you toward repentance?" The problem is there are few people who respond to the goodness of God. God loves people more than He loves their comfort. He invests a great deal into mankind. He desires relationship with us and will go to great lengths to create such a relationship in order for us to receive the rewards and inheritance He has for us.
I have observed this process in the scriptures in working with people through years of ministry. I have noticed three distinct stages. First, we live based on convenience. Our obedience is largely based on circumstances in our lives. We choose to obey based on the circumstances.
The second stage is the crisis stage. God allows a crisis to come into our lives. We are motivated to obey God in order to get out of the pain of our situation. Many times God allows us to stay in this condition in order to demonstrate His love and faithfulness during our pain. Gradually, we discover something knew about God and often have a personal encounter with Him that changes us. Our very nature is affected by this God-encounter.
This begins to move us into a third phase that is a relationship that is motivated now by love and devotion instead of pain. This is where God desires us to be. Another way of saying this is we are no longer seeking His hand. We are seeking Him. We want to know God personally.
Obedience will not last when the motivation is only the removal of our pain. Obedience only lasts when the motivation is loving devotion. Where are you in your obedience and what is the primary motivation? If it isn't love, why not tell the Lord you love Him today and want to know Him for who He is and not for what He can do for you.
