2.22.22

“THE LORD IS RELEASING KEYS TO UNLOCK THAT WHICH WAS ONCE HIDDEN, HE IS SHARING SECRETS AND GIVING SOLUTIONS” ~ from prophetic word I released March 19, 2020 “THE HOUR OF MYSTERIES REVEALED”.

I’ve had several dreams recently about Jesus coming to rule and other dreams that confirm the hour of this word; earthly Kings at war and the games are just beginning. We are in a time of the changing of the guards. Exposure, Revelation, Revealing, Keys, etc. All of which I had written about in this word, and though it has been ‘revealing itself’ over the last two years, today I believe as Scripture writes in Isaiah 22:22 there’s another defining moment in TIME, in history on this very date 2.22.22. The Lord is marking this day with His Word, “I will give him the key to the house of David—the highest position in the royal court. When he opens doors, no one will be able to close them; when he closes doors, no one will be able to open them.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭22:22‬ ‭NLT‬‬

This Is A Time For Kingdom Advancement

If you follow prophecy, wisdom will lead you to wheels and more wheels within the wheel if you have eyes to see. With our consumption driven culture, we often overlook what the Lord has already said, and CONTINUES to say.

May this word bless you!

THE HOUR OF MYSTERIES REVEALED
March 19, 2020
Amy Sutherland

This morning, March 19, 2020, as I felt the pull to go into the Word of God I opened my Bible and thought I was going to one book and when I looked down I was in another (Daniel) that I had not turned to – though immediately, “The secret is revealed to Daniel” was highlighted to me. I could feel the Spirit of The Lord hovering here, and my eyes went to Daniel 2:19 “Then the secret was revealed to Daniel in a vision of the night and Daniel blessed the God of Heaven.”

After reading more of the surrounding scriptures in Daniel chapter two, I went to the woods to pray and ask the Lord what He was wanting to say as I could sense there was more, there was a certain and unusual weight on these Words today. After making stops here and there to take notice of a mix of new buds on trees and small emerging flowers along with muddy terrain and areas of stagnant waters, when my walk was almost over, very clearly I heard the Spirit of Lord say, “These things will spring forth this spring”. I then googled when the first day of spring was thinking it was some time away, and consequently very surprised to see that is was in fact TODAY, and according to the farmer’s almanac is earlier than it has been in over a century! It was then I knew this was a “now” word, and there is a springing forth and quickening of that which has been hidden and dormant. “It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness, And the light dwells with Him” Daniel 2:22

As I continued to press into the Lord’s heart over this and wait upon Him I had a vision. And in the vision I saw roots exposed upside down, I was looking closely at the root system and the vision began to pan out and I saw giant trees coming up from the earth but they were upside down with root systems exposed suspended in space. The trees were so large that the root systems could connect to the roots systems of other trees in other countries. Then the vision panned in closer again in an “extreme close up” and I saw (what looked like phone, usb, etc) wires twined in the roots connecting to other nations. Then I began to pan out again and saw the whole earth orbiting in space with trees all around the globe upside down.

As I began to research the trees and their root systems, I came across this commentary. It is as if creation, science and God are prophesying back to us. “Globally, trees are often recognized as the ‘lungs of the world’ because they exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with the atmosphere. However, this is an understatement. If we think in these terms, trees are also the kidneys of the world as they regulate the flow and use of water by intercepting rain and releasing it slowly to the ground where it can either run off into rivers, or enter the groundwater. Plants can then absorb it for use in photosynthesis. This absorbed water is then transpired back to the atmosphere and blown on the wind until it falls as rain somewhere else. Finally, they are like the heart of the world, as they drive the ecosystems that make the world healthy and function properly.” Quoted from commentary by Roger Leakey (Vice Chairman, International Tree Foundation). I believe this is a divine hour where the Lord is flipping upside down and turning inside out to expose compromised ‘systems’ in the heart of the world. In our created bodies, the lungs protect the heart, and the kidneys help pass waste and help filter the blood before sending it back to the heart. As roots of trees mimic the lungs in actual function and appearance this is divine exposure to ultimately protect the heart of His created. There has been a “running off’ of tainted waters, but the Lord is exposing so the cleansing may begin.

Isaiah 42:8,9 “I am the Lord, that is My Name; My glory I will not give to another, nor my praise to carved idols. Behold, the former things have come to pass, and new things I now declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.”

Daniel – Hebrew “God is my judge” (by definition: pronounce sentence [for or against] to vindicate or punish, to govern, contend, defend, execute judgment – needs, plead, reason, rule); “strength”

THE BLESSING OF THE LORD IS IN THE YIELDING – HE IS COMING AS JUDGE BUT OFFERING STRENGTH

This is a time in history when the pendulum is swinging publicly, God is judging for or against, removing and establishing kings. He is appointing in this hour for His purpose. This is not a time to resist, but to yield. When we yield to who or what The Lord is for or against, we will be under rooted in strength. In Hebrew, “Strength” is the under meaning of Daniel, “God is my judge”. Symbolically, just as I found myself in the book of Daniel and I did not resist reading the word although it is not what I was going to choose but it was where I was led, America and the Nations will find themselves searching out a different chapter in their lives, they will be interrupted by God their Judge, and if they yield to the change Elohay Mauzi – God Of My Strength will be their undergirding.

He removes kings and establishes kings. Daniel answered, “Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and power belong to Him. “It is He who changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and establishes kings. He gives wisdom to the wise And [greater] knowledge to those who have understanding! “It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things; He knows what is in the darkness, And the light dwells with Him. “I thank You and praise You, O God of my fathers, For You have given me wisdom and power; Even now You have made known to me what we requested of You, For You have made known to us [the solution to] the king’s matter.” Daniel 2:20,23

THE LORD IS RELEASING KEYS TO UNLOCK THAT WHICH WAS ONCE HIDDEN, HE IS SHARING SECRETS AND GIVING SOLUTIONS

The Lord is sharing these secrets and give solutions with whom He can trust. The consecrated. The Beloved. (Daniel 1: 8-20) Those who have not been heard in the past will now have voice. Those long hidden will now be seen. Many false prophets have been established as kings, but the Lord is making way for the voices of the Pure. I heard in the Spirit, “Misfits you haven’t missed it, God is about to make you His modern mystic”. Like in the vision where the wires were twined in roots, as this cleansing is taking place man made wiring (voice, communication) will be detangled and make way for proclamation of the pure voice of the Lord to be heard throughout the earth. You haven’t missed it, the wait was divine orchestration; as some kings fall, now the priests of the Lord will rise to reign. There will be more unity in the five fold than ever before, because now is the time the Spirit of the Lord will pour out His Spirit on all flesh.

‘And it shall be in the last days,’ says God, ‘That I will pour out My Spirit upon all mankind; And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, And your young men shall see [divinely prompted] visions, And your old men shall dream [divinely prompted] dreams; Even on My bond-servants, both men and women, I will in those days pour out My Spirit And they shall prophesy. ‘And I will bring about wonders in the sky above And signs (attesting miracles) on the earth below, Blood and fire and smoking vapor. ‘The sun shall be turned into darkness And the moon into blood, Before the great and glorious day of the Lord comes. ‘And it shall be that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord [invoking, adoring, and worshiping the Lord Jesus] shall be saved (rescued spiritually).’ Acts 2:17-21 (Joel 2:28-32).

THE LORD WILL GIVE YOU AUTHORITY OVER THOSE WHO OPPRESSED YOU

“The king answered Daniel and said, “Most certainly your God is the God of gods and the Lord of kings and a revealer of mysteries, since you have been able to reveal this mystery!” Then the king promoted Daniel [to an exalted position] and gave him many great gifts, and he made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.” Daniel 2:47,48

Babylon in Hebrew translates “confusion”. The rulers of this air communicate with confusion (Ephesians 6:12), and thereby the earthly kings rule underneath it. Through this divine exposure there will be a shift, and those who once opposed you will seek you for clarity, those who once suppressed you will seek you for wisdom, those who once despised you will favor you.

Finally, It is not coincidental that we recently celebrated Purim, and it is not coincidental that Passover is upon us, as “It is He who changes the times and seasons.” Daniel 2:21 Let us not forget that Esther found favor with the King, was promoted to Queen and saved an entire race. Let us not forget Daniel was shown secrets from the Lord and was able to interpret the Kings dream thereby saving his own life and his brothers, and later survived the fiery furnace and the lions den. Let us not forget Jesus the sacrificial Lamb has come and resurrected.

Exodus 13:14 “And it shall be when your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What does this mean?’ you shall say to him, ‘With a strong and powerful hand the Lord brought us out of Egypt, from the house of bondage and slavery.”

Esther 9:1 “Now in the twelfth month on the thirteenth day when the king’s command and edict were about to be executed, on the very day when the enemies of the Jews had hoped to gain power over them and slaughter them, it happened the other way around so that the Jews themselves gained power over those who hated them.”

The Lord is looking to you son and daughter, He has given you His authority and I hear His voice saying, would you rise up Esther? Would you rise up Daniel? Would you rise up Deborah? Would you rise up Joseph? Would you rise up Rahab? Would you rise up John? Would you rise up Mary? It is time to rise up in the spirit of Elijah and testify to the Spirit of Jesus. Would you prepare the way?

Kindness, The Armor Bearer Of Love

Kindness is not weakness, it is the armor bearer of love!

This statement relates to all areas of our life, but I still believe the Lord is dealing deeply within His body. I wasn’t planning to ‘go here’, but alas I am. I think we need to seriously consider who the “armor bearers” are in own lives.

Honestly, I’ve been to the glory and revival meetings and sought the Lord among His finest. And truth be told I have found the fruit of kindness is often lacking. Where there is a lack of kindness, there is a lack of transformative love. It doesn’t matter how gifted you are if your character and fruit are immature. How is it that we demonstrate His joy in service and laugh until our hearts are full but just minutes earlier shun someone in line waiting to get in service, give judging and haughty looks under the guise of discernment, give way to jealousy and territorial spirits? Why do we think we are better than others, why do we think we deserve closer proximity to ministers, why do we think we deserve more than someone else when we come into the House of the Lord? We are supposed to be among brothers and sisters in Christ – and if this is how you treat a sibling, you must be an orphan because in God’s Kingdom there is always enough.

The Church systems are still like the worlds. And if we continue to let this type of narcissistic attitude go unckecked, we will not change and further reproduce unruly and entitled sons and daughters regardless of age. Ministers, some of your leadership are smiling and praising you to your face while rude and insensitive to those around them. This isn’t for your protection, it’s rejection of Gods created.

This correction is critical as we rebuild the new model of the church and it’s growth. All of us within the Body need to take responsibility and cease from making excuses for the behavior of ourselves & others; it’s not ‘just the way they are’ or only their personality – it’s a character issue. To be a true disciple, we must also walk in discipline. The Lord disciplines those He loves – because there is a more excellent way. 🤍

“By this shall all [men] know that you are My disciples, if you love one another [if you keep on showing love among yourselves].”
‭‭John‬ ‭13:35‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

“Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily.”
1 Corinthians‬ ‭13:4‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

“But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there.”
‭‭Galatians‬ ‭5:22-24‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Loving Our Enemy

We are seeing a lot of unrest in the nations, there are poor and even evil choices being made across the global board by those in leadership – it seems as if there’s no escaping it. However, even in our anger, sadness or even ‘prophetic decrees’ it’s important to remember that it is not the person who is our enemy.

People are never your enemy because people are made in the image of God. It is the spirit they have allowed to rule them you are witnessing and thereby deciding for or against, drawing boundary lines, etc. The greatest love is when we don’t agree with these individuals but because we know Who paid the price for their eternal freedom, we walk in love toward them. They don’t hate you, they hate Christ in you. Loving our enemies doesn’t mean allowing them to abuse us, and putting our safety at risk as much as it is knowing Jesus paid the price for their lives to receive them as His inheritance. When we adopt this mindset, our approach toward them moves from one of defense to offense as we see them rightly through God’s eyes. The true enemy are the spirits of the world that control them.

““You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭5:43-48‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”
‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6:12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Rubies and Pearls

Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. I stopped and let myself think about it for a moment, my mind pondering the subject through old posted memories that had just surfaced on social; varying from humorous ones to the real origins of the holiday- the life of St. Valentine who was a martyr. Oh, and what love verse should I share? And … I was fine, and then I was not. The thought of never having had a valentine suddenly took the wind out of my sails. Not because I feel like I am missing something, but rather as I imagined trying to write an encouraging note around the subject I could feel the typical and familiar judgement I have sensed in the past – “What’s wrong with you?”.

While I know my stance on the matter, I could feel this suggested deficit try and linger to see if I would take hold. Classic story of “as a man thinks in his heart, so is he” and I wasn’t willing to let these unfavorable thoughts lead the day. Recognizing that I don’t identify with these feelings as the truth (although there where times I once had), I knew the Lord wanted me to pause and look at this because He wanted to express something through it.

Men and women alike, your heart is not for everyone to handle and that is ok. This world is inside out and upside down and so are its practices. We have long placed value on the wrong things, which is why we end up calling evil good and good evil. Now, I am not suggesting this Hallmark holiday is evil, but from an overhead perspective there are subtle suggestions from elementary to adult hood that we are rewarded IF we are deserving of love. And therefore if I don’t have someone rewarding me, that must mean I am not worthy of love. Well, if I may be so transparent it is true I have never had a valentine, nor have I received flowers, gifts, etc from admirers with the exception of my boyfriend in high school who gave me a Christmas gift, and one male friend gifted me flowers on my birthday. And there’s some creepers in there which I’ll choose to overlook, but I have had some really nice dinners though. 😀 In context, I don’t really date, nor have I had many boyfriends. But does this mean I am actually not “worthy” to receive? Who knows, you may be reading this now and thinking, “There must be something wrong with her then!”

In some ways it is a blessing; I am free from attachment, in possessions and persons. I don’t have to give away or sell items because I am reminded of a person that no longer loves me or who I no longer am in love with. But more than not being wasteful with material possessions (it’s not like I don’t like gifts by the way, lol) I am not wasteful with someones time, emotions, finances, and heart. And for the record, I am a romantic and am pro-marriage, so this is the longest wait of my life. But what about a shift in perspective, and honoring what is truly admirable within hearts wether single, married, dating, or engaged? The most admirable thing about any of us is that we have already been chosen, each one of us created in the image of our Heavenly Father. This world will tell you everything you are not, but the Lord reminds you of everything you are. As a matter of fact the world has our hearts so undervalued that for countless years integrity, morality, and love for God is regarded as meaningless when our hearts are the very place from which our identity is formed. “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” Proverbs 23:7.

I recently came across a story on National Geographic of an Iceman who lived in the European Alps. “Otzi the Iceman” was naturally mummified and discovered by German hikers in 1991. The article states he had died 5,000 years ago and has become Europes most famous mummy, the subject of science, books, and documentaries. Otzi is kept in a custom cold chamber, his remains are attended to five times a year and he averages 300,000 visitors as year. Otzi is “one of a kind,” an only tie to that point in history and therefore great care is taken to well preserve his remains. The city where he is housed (Bolzano, Italy) is even planning to upgrade to a new archaeology museum for him. As much as I find history fascinating, how much more our living, beating hearts that imprint the world today! When something is special it must be preserved; if it holds high value, is rare and precious, great lengths are taken to ensure its protection such as human guards, security systems, special chambers, and sometimes even the temperature at which it is stored is taken in to account with great care.

An original piece of fine art in the same way is irreplaceable, and cannot be touched by the public’s hands. While many people can gaze, admire and learn from our hearts, they are not for everyone to handle. The book of Proverbs, also known as the book of Wisdom writes, “Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life” 4:23 (NLT), “Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life” 4:23 (NKJV). Another interpretation to this verse is the “issues” that flow from your life are determined by how well you guard your heart. When you don’t understand your value, you “sell out” or are undersold for less than value. You are not someone’s good deal, you are treasure, and the outcome of this truth is also determined by what you believe. This bit of wisdom applies to exceptionally more than love relationships, as healthy heart flow is connected to beloved identity in Jesus. “For skillful and godly Wisdom is better than rubies or pearls, and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.” Proverbs 8:11 AMPC

A man like St. Valentine had to have known his beloved identity in Jesus as he emulated Christ through his selflessness and commitment to covenant love. At the time in Rome the Christian Church was facing persecution from an emperor named Claudias who had released an edict prohibiting marriage. St. Valentine being a priest secretly married the Christians, and helped persecuted believers. It is said that while imprisoned he prayed for one of his judges, Asterius’ daughter who was blind. The daughter was healed which led to Asterius’ salvation as well. In 269 AD St. Valentine was sentenced to death, and was beaten, stoned, and beheaded for marrying Christians, he was martyred for love and marriage, as was Christ. I love this account of St. Valentine, though how much more powerful that Jesus made the way through His shed blood for us to be worthy to receive Him.

I want to leave you with a powerful short vision I had March 24, 2021 entitled “A Worthy Heart”

This morning I had a powerful vision I pray blesses you. I was praying in the Spirit and I sensed I was in the courts of Heaven. There was a weight on my heart, and I very much felt the accusations of the adversary. I had bound these spirits to the foot of the cross in English, and broke any agreement that they were part of my identity. However, there was still something being prayed through me. As I yielded to the Spirit I went into a vision and saw Jesus’ hand (index finger) writing w o r t h y in His blood over my exposed heart. I asked the Lord for Scripture and two passages came to mind.

“So now the case is closed. There remains no accusing voice of condemnation against those who are joined in life-union with Jesus, the Anointed One.” Romans 8:1 TPT

“Your hearts can soar with joyful gratitude when you think of how God made you worthy to receive the glorious inheritance freely given to us by living in the light. He has rescued us completely from the tyrannical rule of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom realm of his beloved Son. For in the Son all our sins are canceled and we have the release of redemption through his very blood.”Colossians 1:12-14 TPT

The blood of Jesus closes the case in the courts! The enemy uses his index “pointer” finger to accuse the body, Jesus uses his index finger to authenticate truth over your heart and prophetically point you to the legitimacy of your identity. The enemy lies to intimidate with ‘all that you are not’, while Jesus speaks truth into all that you are.

Revelation 12:10 writes that the accuser of our brothers and sisters (who are the body of Christ) relentlessly accuses us before God day and night. As we grow and mature in our spiritual journey warfare shifts in awareness and intensity, but one thing will remain; the truth of God’s Word. Sometimes we will find ourselves in the courts of Heaven (and not always on the defense) but when your heart is pure and united to Christ’s, you can remain confident you will “win the case”, for the release of redemption is through His very blood. His blood made you worthy to receive this beautiful inheritance- beloved identity in Him to rule and reign with Him.

May we look to Jesus beholding all that HE is, may we incline our ear to His voice and hear the words of life from the Author and finisher of our faith. (Hebrews 12:2)

He is Love! Happy Valentine’s Day!

Desiring Holy Spirit

Just as Moses could not stand to be away from the presence of the Lord so I will petition the same of the Holy Spirit; I will not move without Your presence, I am fully dependent upon You, AND I need more of You! As Jesus prayed for His disciples, they were sent and then led and directed once the Holy Spirit was with them. To receive the Holy Spirit is to yield to Him, to yield to the Holy Spirit is be led and directed by Him, to be led and directed by Him is be in communion with Him.

“And Moses said to the Lord, If Your Presence does not go with me, do not carry us up from here!” ‭‭Exodus‬ ‭33:15‬ ‭AMPC‬‬. In other words, do not send me, I am not prepared without You! ‬

“Then Jesus said to them again, Peace to you! [Just] as the Father has sent Me forth, so I am sending you. And having said this, He breathed on them and said to them, Receive the Holy Spirit! [Now having received the Holy Spirit, and being led and directed by Him] …” John‬ ‭20:21-23 AMPC‬‬

Jesus gave details – He told the disciples what would happen next, but it was after receiving the Holy Spirit. We can do nothing without the Holy Spirit, for He is the one that equips us!

Restoring The Garden

This is the message from my dream yesterday morning ~ when we are willing to risk all, even our life (our will & desires) for the beauty of the Lord then we will be fruitful and bloom in and out of season. Our abandonment to His heart causes us to hit the mark and lead us right to the Promised Land. Where ever the Son shines, there will always be a garden; He is Paradise.

There are inheritances the Lord is trying to restore to you, but it will require risk, faith, and it will be the glimpse of His overwhelming beauty that causes you to leap toward the Promise Land. He is your reward!

“And the Lord shall guide you continually and satisfy you in drought and in dry places and make strong your bones. And you shall be like a watered garden and like a spring of water whose waters fail not. And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of [buildings that have laid waste for] many generations; and you shall be called Repairer of the Breach, Restorer of Streets to Dwell In.” Isaiah‬ ‭58:11-12‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

New Beginnings

Today is 2.2.22, equaling the sum total 8, and the number eight is symbolic of New Beginnings, Restoration and Redemption. And in a full interpretation we have 5 (2’s) counting the unabbreviated year 2022, with a sum total of 10. Grace for the testing, and now a double portion recompense.

After having several very recent dreams on the above topics, I believe today is a culmination point with a message that says in summary these dreams are marking a time and season of new beginnings, even this very day.

Early this morning I had a dream I was helping a young woman I know get dressed and ready on her wedding day. Though she is not in a relationship currently, in the dream it was time and I was there to guide and assist her. The meaning of the her name is “white, fair, blessed ring”. This is a time of blessing to enter into new covenant with the Lord, and also with those who are your new destiny alignments. The point of view in the dream zoomed to her heels where a thick sliver line had been drawn right above the last bend line in the back of the heel near the achilles. I then watched her put her shoes on. This silver line connected to the shoes almost appearing like a drawn on “sling back” attachment to the shoe. There are multiple references in the Bible for the heel being used to describe the most vulnerable area of attack. I believe the Lord is saying He has placed His silver band of redemption over the most vulnerable areas His Bride has been attacked. The Father has drawn the line against the enemies hand, and the Lord will cause what the enemy used to harm you as a “sling back” to quickly propel you forward. Lastly in the dream my attention was checking over the Bride’s makeup. She chose red lip stick, and light browns for eye color. In show business we call this “last looks” right before the cameras start rolling. It is time the Bride of Christ arise for such a time as this; time her speech is marked with boldness, carried by passionate devotion for her Bridegroom King. Her eyes are adorned in a beauty named humility, it is a protective covering for the gates that guard purity of heart.

The Lord has prepared His fair ones, those with purity in heart, action, and speech. Arise now and walk into your new beginning! “The fig tree puts forth and ripens her green figs, and the vines are in blossom and give forth their fragrance. Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away.”
‭‭Song of Solomon‬ ‭2:13‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

“And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt; you shall raise up the foundations of many generations; you shall be called the repairer of the breach, the restorer of streets to dwell in.” Isaiah 58:12 ESV

“So we are convinced that every detail of our lives is continually woven together for good, for we are his lovers who have been called to fulfill his designed purpose.” Romans‬ ‭8:28‬ ‭TPT‬‬

The Purpose Of Encounter Is Transformation

Encounters are like emboss marks that become part of you ~ here your soul is stamped through seeing, knowing, and experiencing God in supernatural and undeniable ways that always lead us back to our true identity in Him. The goal of encounter is not experience alone, as each encounter should leave us with a longing to know more of God. It is through encounter that we behold, become, and transform into the likeness of our Savior.

“And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into His image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭3:18‬ ‭AMP‬‬

Kingdom Authority Is Granted Through Serving

Such is the way of the Kingdom~ it will always be a matter of the heart. You will not have authority over anything you are not willing to serve, authority in the Kindgom is granted through servant hood and stewardship; humility in attitude and action. The access point is heart connection to the King of Kings, the greatest servant of all.

“Jesus sat down, called the twelve disciples to come around him, and said to them, “If anyone wants to be first, he must be content to be last and become a servant to all.””

Beauty In Every Season

Instantly when I saw this man on my walk today I felt a fathers heart, and though focused it was merry on display through him. It was so clear the Father was speaking I turned back and asked if I could take this photo. I said, “this so symbolic of finding beauty in every season” and he replied confidently, “it’s hard not too”. What a picture of The Father, master Creator always working and appreciating what is being made, wether seen or underneath the surface!

I spoke to him for a few moments and thanked him, and went about my walk. A few steps ahead I heard in my spirit, “I know what it was, I know what it is, and know what it is becoming.” It reminds me of Revelation 1:8, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, says the Lord God, He Who is and Who was and Who is to come, the Almighty (the Ruler of all). [Isa. 9:6.]”

It may be hard for you to except, but today the Lord looks at you and sees beauty (even when you don’t have any leaves 😉). Many feel stripped right now but the Lord sees what you are becoming. He thinks your life is so valuable that He is even taking the time to remember you in this season and artistically paint a canvas. Maybe you feel strong in spirit but your circumstances have been bleak, well the Lord would say over them, “I know what it is but I know what it is becoming”. In every season, you are the Fathers artwork. The Lord also spoke to me and said He does not show us visions and dreams or make promises to disappoint us, and He is faithful to bring to completion. Genesis reminds us that He loves completion, as on the seventh day (seven means perfection and completion) He rested and called what He created good. “I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return].” ‭‭Philippians‬ ‭1:6‬ ‭

When we live our lives yielded to His Spirit and trust in His process of transformation we can not be put to shame. The art of transformation is change, becoming for the Lord. The Father knows what you are becoming for the One who is to come and I promise you it is all for the beauty of His Son. “For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy.” Hebrews‬ ‭10:14‬ ‭

It is the Father’s delight to fashion us into the image of His glorious Son. You are not a burden, you are His beloved. “And all of us, as with unveiled face, [because we] continued to behold [in the Word of God] as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are constantly being transfigured into His very own image in ever increasing splendor and from one degree of glory to another; [for this comes] from the Lord [Who is] the Spirit.” 2 Corinthians‬ ‭3:18‬ ‭‭‭
