Conversations With God  April 1994

#1

    Put on a garment of praise for a spirit of
heaviness.  Do not allow the cares of this world to drag you
down, for they are for a brief moment of eternity.  Do not
shoulder responsibility for the warfare because the battle is
mine, says the Lord.

   Rather I would have you yield to the work of my
Spirit in you.  Surrender everything to me and see the hand of
your God move in your behalf, says the Lord.  I AM the God your
provider.  I AM the God your healer. I  AM the God your
righteousness.   I AM the God your provider.   I AM the God your
banner.   I AM the God who is always there for you.

   Is not my very name reflective of my divine nature?
Have I not said that I would never leave you nor forsake you?
Am I not the God who changes not?  Why then do you allow the
cares of this temporary season of eternity to rob you of the
peace I have given you?

     It is not necessary for you to know what I am
working in you right now, says the Lord.  Rather seek to know me
and accept my work in you.  I am doing deep cleansing within you
that might become pure and spotless.

     For my bride will be holy unto me, says the Lord.
And I am shining my light into the deep resources of your heart.
 I am doing a quick work, for the fullness of time is fast
approaching,  says God.

    So yield and obey, says the Lord and see how quickly
I will establish you in the work to which you are called. Seek
me first and the cares of  this world will melt away.  I have
called you.  I am equipping you.  I will establish you and you
will lack no good thing, says the Lord.

     You have asked to see my Glory, says the Lord, yet
you do not tarry for it.  I desire to manifest my Glory in your
midst, yet the intensity with which you pursue me ebbs and flows
as the ocean tides.

     You must pursue me with unwavering singleness of
vision, says the Lord. There can be no greater desire of your
heart than to know me.  For I am the Alpha and Omega  Nothing
happens but that which I allow, says the Lord.  If you lack
wisdom, ask and I will grant you wisdom.  If you need
understanding, then seek my face.

     I am your supply.  Out of the abundance of my
storehouse will I pour out my provision in due season.  Do not
be deceived, you are not to be a source of supply but rather a
channel through which I will meet the needs of the body.

     If you desire to see my Glory manifest in and
through your life, and throughout the earth, then you must tarry
for it.  Those that wait upon me will run the race and not grow
weary because they will have the anointing.  Do not step out
until you have received my anointing, says the Lord.  If you
tarry it will come and you will reflect my Glory to a world that
needs the power of  God evident in their midst.

     I am preparing a move of my Holy Spirit that is
unprecedented in human history, says the Lord.

     My servants have polluted the work of the Holy
Spirit by allowing my people to look at them instead of looking
to me.  My prophets speak words of convenience and not words of
conviction.  My preachers rehearse canned messages that were
inspired for a former season.  And my body selfishly clings to
the things of this world.  I am going to change these things,
says the Lord.

    I am going to move throughout the earth in spite of
the stumbling blocks.  I will pour out of my Spirit and do great
and mighty works that the whole earth will know there is only
one, true God.  I am Jehovah and I will have no other gods
before me.

    I will no longer use ministers who have become
puffed up by the flow of my Spirit through them.  No, I will use
vessels emptied of themselves and filled with my Glory, says the
Lord.  They will not seek status and fame, but will seek to
remain hidden behind my Glory.

    I will establish them among you and anoint them to
bring great spiritual blessings to  my body.  They will be
instant in season and out of season.  They will bring wisdom and
understanding to the vision at hand.  And they will remain calm
and at peace by my Spirit throughout the coming chaos as the
world's self-sufficient systems collapse.

     So look to me only, says the Lord.  I AM the way,
the truth, the light, and the life.  I AM the one who is able to
complete the good work I  have begun in you.  I AM the author
and finisher of your faith.  There are no other gods before me.
And only I am able to perfect my plan and will for your life.
You can not do it in your own strength.

     Many voices will arise in these last days which
would seek to convince you that you are able to prosper and
control your own destiny.  They would say to you that there are
many roads to heaven.  But I say to you that there is one,
narrow road and it begins at the foot of the cross of my Son,
Jesus.  It is His blood that has cleansed, healed, delivered,
and restored you.  There is no other way.  Do not be deceived in
this.  Salvation comes in Jesus Christ , and in Him alone.

     I am anointing my prophets and teachers to call you
to repentance, says the Lord.  They will not compromise and
twist my Word for their own gain.  I will establish them among
you so you will know what I am doing in your midst.  And as in
the past, I will destroy the prophets of Baal and cause their
words to be as unintelligible babble.

    The warfare is intensifying and you must be armed
and prepared at all times for battle.  Put on my whole armor and
be faithful watchmen.  Be instant in prayer, ready in season and
observant of the enemy's work against you.  I will reveal and
destroy the works of Satan.  I already have the victory,  but I
have called you to overcome the devil on the battlefield of
life, says the Lord.

     I am about to unmask the accuser of the brethren
that has come like a plague among you, says the Lord.

     For I am the good shepherd.  I jealously guard my
sheep from ravenous wolves and other predators who seek to
devour my flock.

     Tune your ears to hear me, says the Lord.  My sheep
hear my voice and are comforted by my Words.  They follow when I
lead in green pastures and beside still waters.  They follow
when I lead through the valley of trouble.  Those who hear my
voice and follow after me will be safe.

     You who are not attuned to the sound of my voice
will not know when I move the flock to another place.  You will
be left behind and exposed to those who will feed on the flock.
And there will be no one to protect you, says the Lord.

     The accuser of the brethren seeks to imitate the
voice of your shepherd, says the Lord.  They often look  like a
shepherd and speak soothing words of comfort, yet they are
deceivers, says the Lord. If you listen to them you can not hear
me, says God, and you will not keep up with the rest of the
flock.  You will be alone with the destroyer in the valley of
trouble. And you will not be able to find the green pastures,
says the Lord

     I will expose the accuser of the brethren among you
and you must reject their words.  Do not speak out against those
who I have anointed to serve you, says the Lord.  Test the
spirits and know from whence they come.  I will give you
discernment that you might quickly resist those who seek to
devour the flock.  And you must walk in unity as you stand
against them.  For I would have you all enter in to the green
pastures and rest along my still waters, says the Lord.

     As the first disciples were called to watch and
wait, so also I say to you to watch and wait,  and see the hand
of the Lord.

     I am moving throughout the earth and raining my
Spirit upon all flesh.  The righteous are seeking a greater
measure of  holiness and relationship with me.  The unrighteous
are walking in a greater measure of rebellion against em, says
the Lord.  These things are, as they are to be.

     For I am changing nations before your very eyes,
says the Lord.  Global powers are collapsing,  and the baser
nations are becoming as thorns in the flesh to the world.  My
instruments of justice are arising to their appointed places,
and I am getting ready to unleash my judgment worldwide
simultaneously, says the Lord.

     You ask when these things are to be, and I say to
you to watch the times and seasons,  and I will give you
discernment.  You ask why it seems that the just must suffer,
and I say that only I know the heart of man.

    Fear not for these things must surely come to pass
before the bride is gathered to the bridegroom.  These things
will mature you  into a pure and spotless bride.  You have not
yet resisted the evil one to the shedding of blood nor the point
of death.

     My church is not yet walking in unity.  There is
much yet to be refined, says the Lord, and so I will use the
unrighteous to refine my bride further.  Purity comes from much
time in the refining fire, and I will consume everything that is
not eternal.  So get ready for the fire of Heaven.  But do not
be afraid for I will be with you in the fiery furnace, says the
Lord.

     Some of you have commented about the "spiritual
hospital" mentioned in previous Conversations.  In addition to
"...the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry,
for the edifying of the body of Christ" (Eph. 4:12), our
churches are to be spiritual hospitals.

     In addition to the teaching and equipping of the
body that is a part of church (body) ministry, we are to provide
a place for the hurting and spiritually broken to come and find
healing at the cross.  However, too often we proclaim a watered
down, milk toast gospel that says "just come to Jesus and
everything will be fine!"  I don't know about you, but since I
came to Jesus, everything has not been just fine!

     Receiving Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior is the
beginning of a body-soul-spirit healing process that continues
until we are with the Lord.  And it is often a rocky road that
we travel as we "run the race" set before us.  Too often our
pews are filled with hurting and broken people who are too proud
to admit to the rest of the body that they are hurting and in
need of spiritual healing.  Instead, they stuff their problems
because they fear that the rest of the body will not accept them
as they are...warts and all!

    We are also seeing unprecedented numbers of
ministers returning from the "battle front" all beat up, battle
scarred and burned out.  They too need to be attended to in a
spiritual hospital setting.  What usually happens, though, is
that when they show up on our church doorstep and we find out
they are ministers, we make demands on them to minister.  What
they really need is time to rest,  wait on the Lord,  and
remount up with wings as eagles.

    Finally with the increase in Satanism, New Age,
Humaninsm and other  "ism's"  that stand opposed to the Most
High God, new converts often need special ministry, deliverance
or long term care.  Again, where are they going to go if not to
their local assemblies where they are accepted, loved, trained,
healed, restored, equipped, and sent forth.  We need to get back
to the basics...

    Paul was sent to the Gentiles "... to open their
eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the
power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of
sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith
that is in me" (Acts 26:18).  So likewise are we to go forth
and....

    "...preach good tidings unto the meek, bind up the
brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the
opening of the prison to them that are bound; to proclaim the
acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our
God; to comfort all that mourn; to appoint unto them that mourn
in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes,  the oil of joy for
mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting
of the Lord, that he might be glorified" (Isaiah 61: 1-3).

     Someone  calculated how a typical lifespan of 70
years is spent: Sleep, 23 yrs. (32.9%); Work, 16 yrs. (22.8%);
TV, 8 yrs.  (11.4%);  Eating, 6 yrs. (8.6%); Leisure, 4.5 yrs.
(6.5); Illness, 4 yrs.  (5.7%); Dressing, 2 yrs. (2.8%)  and
Religion, 0.5 yrs. (0.7%).

When Jesus comes back will he find us ministering
Holy Spirit  empowered body, soul, and spirit  healing to the
sick, or will we just be fulfilling the above status quo?  And
will your church be a spiritual hospital,  or will it merely be
a hiding place for the spiritually proud?


Conversations With God are from my quiet times with
