Word submitted for your
discernment
PRESENT DAY
MARCHING ORDERS
Captains, Trim
Your Lamps!
Even though
things don't always go the way you would like them to go, just know that I am in
control, and that I am working it all out the way that I know would be best for
you. When you don't understand My hand, trust My heart of love for you in that
I only allow those things that are best for you for your maturing, your purging
and perfecting that which concerns Me in your life.
This is the day
of the great apostasy, the great falling away of many from Me and the faith that
I have placed before them. For the testing of men's hearts will prove if they
were ever Mine to begin with. For many will say, "Lord, Lord, didn't I do all
these things in your name? And I will say, "depart from Me for I never knew
you!". What things they had done was in promoting self and their kingdoms, for
worldly gain, and for their fame, and not in loving Me.
I want you to
test your own heart to see if whether what you are doing is of Me. What is
motivating your actions, your attitudes, your goals. Are you truly lifting Me
up in what you are doing, being led by My Spirit, or are you trying to promote
yourself? If you judge yourself, you won't be judged for those things that are
not built upon My words, My truth, My purposes, will crumble.
Yes, this is the
day I will test the hearts of many to see whether their ministries were truly of
Me. You can tell them by the fruit produced in them. Are these ministries
truly encouraging My people to overcome, or are they just giving out words that
they know they will want to hear? Yes, are they just vain, empty words that
don't produce any life in them?
For yes, this is
the season where many are just building a kingdom for self to dwell
in. Building a name for themselves and a kingdom to dwell in only separates
them from My highest goal in their life and that is for them to live the
resurrected life which only comes from dying. Yes, from humbling themselves at
My feet, seeking My perfect will in all things, to please Me alone no matter
what the price.
So make sure
what you are doing stems out from having a pure heart and pure motives in
serving Me alone. Make sure that the stream that is flowing is seeking to flow
to the lower depths in humility and servitude to My bride. Make sure that the
words flowing through you are Mine and that you have a heart of compassion. In
seeking My perfect will and seeking My face, know that you will find it. For
this is the day of weeding out, for purifying, of purging, of separating the
wheat from the tares, the goats from the sheep, the pure from the
vile.
Yes, this is the
day I am gathering together those who are Mine to do a mighty work through.
Yes, I am gathering together My bride, those who are sincere in serving Me alone
and not their self in what they are doing.
Yes, this is the
day for war, but you must be ready. You must be getting the troops ready those
who are in authority. Yes, those who are captains must prepare the troops with
the words they need to hear for this is a serious hour in order to promote My
kingdom purposes. This is the day to gather together in
unity, with one mind to seek My face like never before.
Buckle down,
press in, overcome, let out a victory cry for We win!! And those who truly
believe it will live like it. My Kingdom will come!! My will be done on earth
as it is in Heaven.
