I’ve got you right where I want you, eh?
You are just learning to be still,
To be at peace and to love me.
You are made for better things,
Not for people who DO NOT VALUE YOU!
You deserve better…..
You are not perfect…..
But many of these people are being ‘selfish’
And project it onto you.
Are you selfish? Yes, to a certain degree you are.
But not as much as some might make you.
You are, at least, willing to change and make changes
Being teachable is a big deal
Now if only we can get you to not procrastinate
Now get out of your shell….that’s really the big deal
This whole selfish thing is infuriating because
It’s the wrong diagnosis………you are afraid, not selfish
You are filled with fear and taking shortcuts.
That’s where the problems come in
What you need is CONFIDENCE
You need to believe in who I have made you to be.
You are alive with possibilities,
And that is what needs to come out.
Once your fear is dealt with,
A lot of your so-called ‘problems’ will vanish
And you will be the better for it.
Keep your focus.
Keep your focus on me.
Keep confident.
See the broken and hurting…help them.
See your friends and support and love them
Love them in spite of themselves.
Love them anyway….faults and all.
Love me and my church,
Yeah they are going around the mountain again
But enjoy the ride, and love them.
They need you
Your silence is deafening……you must speak
Even if your words have warts……they need to hear you.
You have the word of this generation……
Let it out.

What if the impossible were possible?
I am not saying I will do it…….
But get a mindset for impossible things.
How would you position yourself?
How would you lay the ground work for success?
Be like Patton and lay plans for the crazy things
That God could do……
Don’t let them get too involved, too complex
Just something you could do…..”if”
Don’t expect the worst………….
Expect the best…..expect hope…….expect love……
Good things are coming…..Good things……Love, Love,Love…….
Love for you……….
because you are worth having………
And I am about to show you……….
the depths of your value……..
And My heart for you……
NOW, be about your father’s business…
Do his will……..love him and do good to others
I will do the rest.

No hope whatsoever in this race……
I’ve already lost……..I guess….
But that’s okay…..I am going on with you
It’s not about my expectations, but your vision
And My willingness to follow……..
O’ Lord…..I am willing to follow, to listen, to learn
“Sure seems like it’s over, doesn’t it?
But it’s not……..just in the process…….
You have to stay firm here……in the unknowing middle ground
This no mans land of faith……….
This is where you prove yourself…..and demonstrate your love for me
Listen To My Heart and stand……..
This process has been long and hard,
But we are finally nearing the end
When you are done, when I have finished forging you
You will be a spear in the hand of the Lord
A dread champion of the faith
And you will be able to penetrate through anything
You can do that even now, but with ill effects
When I am finished with you,
You will have the wisdom to be directed properly
To be effective with what I give you
Because now you have your Jacob’s limp
You know you need me…..and My Blessing
Without me, you have nothing….and that’s a good thing
Because it gives you balance under pressure
Self control is a good thing,
Especially for you…….
Now for self-discipline……
You have quite a bit…..but it needs to be re-focused
To the right place………
You don’t need more as much as a re-arranging of what you have
Once it is aligned properly, everything will come into place
and it will not take you long to catch up
It never does………
Keep your eyes on Me, Keep moving
Keep trusting, Keep being a light to your friends
And you will see the truth of who you are
In this moment and the one to come.
And don’t count yourself out
You are not out of the race yet!
Keep your eyes on me
Stay Holy, Stay True
Keep Loving your God and others
And you will see the end of this
It is Good!”
I choose you in this moment
I choose your love,
Your light will be my guide
I will show myself approved
Your love will pour like rivers for the lonely
For the depressed and weary
For the sick and bound
We will set them free
We will set them free
For Your Name’s sake
And Your Glory.
Amen.

This day was made to praise you
It was made to serve you
It was made to demonstrate your love
You love me…..you pour out your grace
and I choose you in this moment
To believe, to love, to know your ways
You open up doors, you make plans
You show me the way through
You lead me on…….
You are a light dwelling deep inside of me
Shining forth to those in need.
Lord, teach me to submit myself to you
To be disciplined….
So that I can help those in distress….
So that my prayers can change the course of people’s lives…..
“Remember son, some things cannot be altered,
For whatever reason,
For they involve my son’s destiny in the earth…..
You must trust that I know what I am doing….
And You must not beat yourself up for failing at something
You could never succeed at in the first place.
You have to believe that I have set you up for success
But not the success you are expect.
Have faith IN ME……not in your faith, or your ability
Or the circumstances…..IN ME and My Process….
Remember, disillusionment is part of the process
It precedes true vision.
You can make it, son.
You can make it.
You can be the champion
You can be the hero
You can be the light
You can be the truth
You can see the great things of God
Only step in today
Step into this process and I will show you
It’s not over, its just beginning
You are in the right place, and it is about time
To get started.
You will find love, acceptance and mercy
You will see hearts broken and ready to see
And I will open their eyes and give you favor in their eyes
And at long last they will see you as I see you.
Now it will happen because you are at the end of yourself.
Keep your focus on Me and watch what happens!”
You are radiant, full of glory
You are light, full of truth
You are a river of Love flowing forth
You are a wind, blowing out the dust in this temple
Awaken me to you, Awaken me to you
And I will rise up in your presence and go forth.
“Today is the day when these things will begin.
Today you will see the beginnings of the promise fulfilled
Now you will see what I MEAN……not just your notion of it.
You will have a lot of work ahead of you,
But it will be good…..you will see……
you are not out of the running……
Just in the process………now don’t give up……..
On me or on your friends……Believe the best about them
Forgive them and have faith in them…….
I will mend up the brokeness…….
and it will be stronger than ever……..don’t lose heart
You will see……”
Today is a good day…..a bright day…..
A holy day………..
Hard things will come……but better things will come to
Bigger promises and dreams mean bigger demons
But we can take them! because He is with us
Don’t lose heart………in this moment.
I have nothing to look forward to in the natural,
But I know in my spirit something has shifted
And now the Lord is moving……He is moving on our behalf
Now good things will come, love will come
Light will come, the River will come, the fire will come
The wind will come…….
The prisons will fall…..and the people will go free
Let me be there to show them the way home.
“Love me in this moment,
Abide in My love and I will show you
The depths of My heart
The breadth of My Visions
and the height of My purpose for you
Listen to Me and do not doubt,
Do not fear……..Today is a good day
No, nothing ugly is going to happen!
So no dreading……..just worship and truth.
Trust me……….”

“Life happens and Love happens. Death and parting happens. I am always in the middle of it. I am here to save you, to bring you in, to redeem the years the locust has eaten and the worm has destroyed. Do not fear, for there is a design and a pattern to all these things.
Listen to My Voice in these moments. It is a voice of hope and life and peace. Listen to Me and stretch out your faith to believe in the impossible. Align your life with my will……….and you will see the incredible feats I will do…….you will see what is possible to him who believes in His God.
Most of all, Love. Love your brother and believe in Him. Live righteously, but not self-righteously. Don’t be religious, but understand the point of the principles I give you for holiness……see what they are FOR…….see each point as a part of a process that is designed to make an overcomer.
Have faith in your God to deliver the impossible. walk without fear or trepidation…….rise up in your heart in the hope that is in Christ. Stay your mind on the things I have planned for you and be thankful for the things I have already done and given. Awaken to the possibilities of YOU and Christ in YOU. See Heaven working through your life in the here and now…….
Wake up and see that YOUR GOD is already working……..even now……still……….after all these years he has not let up……………I will redeem these years……..in a moment I will do it…….Be Still……Be Patient……Know that I am God.”
The face of destiny…. July 22, 2009

Stare into the face of your destiny……because that is it……….get beyond your fears……and yourself……..see yourself and a living breathing, vibrant expression of who I am to people……….see yourself as radically in love……pursuing purpose and destiny—-without fear or restraint………..See yourself rising up beyond yourself and becoming a light unto the world………
YOU are the champion…….YOU can turn this around…..because of who I Am in YOU…….and who you are called to be in the earth………if you see it…..all these other things will fall into place…….
The world is waiting for you to become YOU…….the real YOU I see you to be………not the YOU you see yourself to be……….be still long enough to see it…….and believe it……..
Take one step May 2, 2009

Oh Lord……I have a long way to go…..
A lot of growing, learning and seeing….
I thought that I thought that I thought
Once I knew………now I know not
But I trust your judgment and put my hope in your love
You can make something grand out of this
and yet you say…..”It is finished”
You have done it?
What does that mean………..
“Do not look to the left, nor to the right
Do not compare…..it will not make sense
Nor look good.
You are not shaped for small things, but great things
And great things require methods that are, at best,
Unusual.
Remember Noah, remember Abraham, Remember moses…….
He starts to do the thing at 40…….then boom!
40 years in the wilderness with me not saying a word to Him
He’s 80…….THEN I come back…..in my own good time…..
And call him………and he is looking for a way out now…….
Saying…..go look up the 40 year old moses……I’m retired…….
But I won’t have it………because he is NOW ready…….
A broken vessel…….a burnt stone……..He is ready for use……
“I AM WHO I AM” is now sending you………
There will be no sending of yourself……….no doing it your way….
But a following after Christ…….that is the truth……..
A waking up to the reality of your life laid down in love
A harvest of true love and lost lives……….
A reawakening of a people….
A re-energizing of my church
A turning back to the truth……from lies…….
And half realities…………..
All that you saw was true…….all that you proclaimed will come to pass
The arrogant will be humbled, the self righteous exposed,
The words of slander will be dealt with……..
Wounded hearts will be healed………in my love, in my love son……
And you will be there to see……to lead……to demonstrate my goodness
And my mercy to them……….a light in a dark place………..
Just come….come and see………come and see…..
Come in and see what I am………..
Not religion…….this form is indeed passing away……
But do not hurry in the transition……..soon enough people will have
To let go of their crutches and walk…….but trust the Spirit…….
One step at a time……one heart at a time……..one life at a time….
One hope at a time……..one step…..one step…..one step…..
Take one.”
Who are You, Really? May 1, 2009

“Do you understand who you are…….where you are…..and the moment in time that you are in? If you did, you wouldn’t do the things that you do………but because you have no revelation, the enemy takes advantage of your blindness and causes you to stumble as he assaults you with hopelessness and fear.
But there is nothing to fear…..but there is much to hope for…….do you see? Look UP! and see the heart of God towards you……..it is for good and not ill……..not a perpetual processing of your faults and failures, but an open door to run after the blessings and territory God has given to you as an inheritance. You have come so far, so fast, and yet the only thing you see is what you cannot do, what you cannot have, and what you are not…….instead of what I have done and what you really are right now, and what I have called you to be in this moment of time.
You are a hero, a champion, a speaker for God and a stormer of impossible strongholds. Your mind can penetrate the strongest of illusions………Your heart can reach the heights of heaven and bring it down to the people to eat. Do not minimize or diminish My work in you……that is not humility, but stupidity and self pity……which is a form of arrogance and pride.
You are better than this…….You have better days ahead of you…..you know this and you have seen this……..self pity and fear and unbecoming of you. Withdrawal is an admission of defeat and allows the enemy to attack your friends unaware. You must take your place and hold it. Stand still, my son, Stand still.
Yet in all of this I say this to you: To you has been given the greatest of promises…….and the greatest of rewards…..because you have followed and been willing to take the greatest risks…………you have not missed what I am saying……..you have heard correctly……….you are not called to do the logical and reasonable thing…….you are called to follow me……and that is an affair of the HEART not the head. Your life has been prepared as an offering to ME……and so it shall be…….because that is where your desire is the most………
You say you lack discipline……but I say you lack focus and a proper revelation…..as anyone can see……when you see the goal, you are the most focused and disciplined man on earth………but you must see it to pursue it……..without the right vision……men perish.
So………Come to Me………Seek My Face and get the proper vision and I will show you what you are truly capable of in this moment in time………You were made for this hour…….the tools you need are prepared and ready………..the hearts of men are ready……….
All that is left is the revelation of ME that unlocks the door……………
Come.”
You Will Overcome March 12, 2009

“Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe your God can turn the captivity of Jacob in a moment……in My time…..not yours? Do you understand the passion He has to restore you to the place you belong……..near His heart, hearing His heartbeat and feeling His breath?
Why so downcast O’ you tired and fearful soul……..Put your Hope in God…….for I am a light in the midst of the darkness…….a hope that makes a bridge to a new place and a new land……….You Can. You Can. You Can…….and I have a plan…….a design……….I am sending you help……..I am opening a door for you to Run through and be preserved.
And you will forget the past and walk in a new day and a new light…….in the hope of your calling and the Joy of the Holy Spirit. But you will also have a depth and a strength and a wisdom that only comes from the winter season………This will keep you in perfect peace in the midst of the storm.
Do not worry or fear, for I am with you. I speak Psalm 91:7 to you………
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you
And so it will be……..your imagination will be worse than the reality…..it can be your friend……but also your enemy……submit it to Me and be focused on My heart………the struggle is in your head…..the battlefield in your mind…………Peace is won here in the quiet places before the soul…………..Rest in Me and I will show you how much you mean to me and how much your heart has changed lives and transformed hearts. You have done so much…..come so far, so fast……….do not think you are being disciplined as you are not……but you are being prepared for promotion……for the new place in which you will run…….Which requires clarity……..which requires rest…………….
You are like a strong willed warhorse………..you want to run……..and it is so hard to be still………I understand…..but do not fear! Everything will come together very shortly………..but rest precedes revelation……and clarity………..It’s coming………..very quickly.
Be of Good cheer……I am on your side……..and you will make it! I have overcome the world.”

“Reality is a tough thing to take…..isn’t it?
But it isn’t about being who you think you ought to be
But co-operating with me in the assignment I have for you.
Forget about measuring up……or even making money or being important
But see these things in the context of Who You Are
And Where I want to take you.
You do them, because I have a plan to use them for my glory
You seek these things, not because your self worth is wrapped up in them,
But because it is an outflow of my love for you,
And My love through you to others………..
Do not pursue them like a man beating the air………
That means without seeing the context I am putting them in.
See them in the context of what I have called you to be.
Come to Me and let me show you the shape of things
All of this is not hopeless…..but in the mode of being formed in you.
You are trying to hard to become something instead of learning to REST And simply Be with Me, letting my presence be in you and through you to others…….
In other words, for crying out loud will you be yourself and love yourself,
Will you be in me, and love in me, and dwell in me
And let my presence and heart show you the you I see you to be….
BE STILL……….its not about success or failure…….but obedience
Be Still and listen to My Heartbeat……….find those things in me that I want you to concentrate on and do them……….
Intimacy first……then action through intimacy………see My heartbeat in the middle of your situation. When you learn to be you will see that I can get you to anywhere from here……..like joseph you can be in a dungeon one day and be in a palace the next……..you just have to learn to listen and be good at what you do……….
In other words…….be you………and do not be distracted from the You I have called you to be……….You do that by coming to me and being with me……..for In My presence I show you the Word you are called to be even as I am the word of God, so you are My Word…….and you are in the process of being shaped…………so co-operate and learn to abide in me……..then do from that abiding and you will see doors open and lives changed……….stop doing these things on your own terms and see My heart and My will in this situation.
Most importantly…..do not be something you are not……….Be YOU……..come to me and learn to be that YOU I see you to be……”
