Tried & True
A Prophetic Word

Repost: March 23-2011
Do you not know? Do you not see that I am calling forth a holy people…a people who will not bow the knee to another, a people whose great desire is for the truth and to honor the truth? I have called forth a people to be sound in doctrine, who will not only try the spirits, but who will examine the word spoken under the microscope of My Word…the more sure word of prophecy.
This people will not seek the favor of man, nor will they be ensnared by the fear of man. They shall walk together though miles apart, for they are one in Spirit and in doctrine…free of factions and dubious manifestations. These are the called-out ones, whose hope is not in man-made traditions, fine-appearing edifices, or cultic mysticism, but whose hope rests solidly on My Word, an unadulterated word, not that which pleases or appeases the flesh.
They will understand My judgments and agree with them. They will know when to pray for their fulfillment, or when a situation is the work of the enemy… although to all appearances may seem harmless, but detrimental to the work of the Holy Spirit and His work throughout the world. These believers will know when to leave a situation in My hands and allow Me to correct and reprove; to divide the wheat from the chaff, tearing down evil and upholding that which is good, pure and true.
They will not be partial because of outward appearance, but will discern by the Spirit who is Mine and who is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Darkness is being brought to light and My children will know and recognize their final destiny, their final resting place is not this world. They know that not all who call themselves “Christian” are My children. They determine the fruit of the Spirit not by quantity (numbers), but quality of character and adherence to My Word.
These courageously speak the unvarnished truth no matter the cost. Their love for Me is deep. They seek Me and My will above all, hungering and thirsting after righteousness.
Yes, I will have a true, purified people, who follow the way of the cross, who have willingly learned obedience through suffering, and are willing to lay down their lives, as did My only begotten Son, Jesus. The choice is yours. "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve..." Joshua 24:15
