The Purity of God’s Promises

“The words and promises of the Lord are pure words, like silver refined in an earthen furnace, purified seven times over.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭12:6‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

Silver is symbolic of redemption and seven symbolic of completion and perfection. The promises of the Lord are completely redemptive! This is the new covenant and all the promises and words of the Lord spoken to you will redeem you from one level of glory to the next. The promises of God will transform your life and perfect that which concerns you. I bless you with greater expectancy and belief in your heart today; all His promises are yes and amen. 🌈🤍🕊

FINDING HOME

For many years the Holy Spirit would speak this verse to me. It happened so often that I began to wonder if the Lord was calling me to be a missionary on an island somewhere. This started in my late teens and lasted over a decade.

“Hear the word of the LORD, you nations; proclaim it in distant coastlands: ‘He who scattered Israel will gather them and will watch over his flock like a shepherd.’” Jeremiah 31:10

When I was in Bible college my degree was in Biblical Studies with an emphasis in Counseling, and close second & third in credits were Missions & Pastoral. I had no doubt I was called to full time ministry – yet nothing fit at the time. My parents thought I was crazy declining three pastoral positions directly out of college but I couldn’t say yes yet. Even way back then there was a mold the Lord was not wanting me to fit. And quite honestly my path since would appear to be ‘all over the map’. You’ve heard me say before, I live assignment lead. Jesus simply asked his disciples to follow Him. They didn’t have a laid out trajectory of where His leading would take them – they just obeyed, learned from Him, and became transformed along the way.
To the best I’ve known how I have set my heart to follow the Holy Spirit.

Maybe your map looks similar to mine with the dots spread out far and wide. And though I don’t claim that all my endeavors have been perfect I know the Lord is the great Redeemer. I believe many have longed to be planted but you have also been pinoneering and living assignment lead. I believe this next season many will find ‘home’. You probably have life long friendships and connections but with the continual movement it’s difficult in the solitary day to day. I see a picture of the earth underground and all the places and systems planted have roots that are now reaching out to each other and connecting across the earth. I see the roots reaching and twining together as if they are ‘holding hands’. You will grow deep and experience the community you have longed for.

I was looking at my website and the statistics show me the daily visitors from various countries. I released a prophetic word for July recently and it was published on another platform yesterday. When I started releasing the words publicly the Lord would have me scribe a year and a half ago I had no idea the reach they were going to have. I just obeyed. I literally ‘heard the word of the Lord’ and through modern advancements of broadcasting, email and media it is ‘proclaimed in the nations and distant coastlands’.

Yesterday and this morning I’ve had visitors reading the prophetic word from United States, South Africa, Malaysia, New Zealand, Australia, United Kingdom, Canada, Indonesia, Philippines, Figi, Germany, Ireland, Trinidad & Tobago, Singapore, Cameroon, France, Jamaica, Netherlands, Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe, Japan, India, Switzerland, Uganda, Mexico, Ghana, and Ecuador.

I am intentionally being specific to say never underestimate “how” the Lord will fulfill His Word to you, just know that He “will”. “Then said the Lord to me, You have seen well, for I am alert and active, watching over My word to perform it.”
‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭1:12‬ ‭AMPC‬‬

Don’t look at the map with your natural eye, simply obey, trust the word of the Lord and believe He is gathering His Body together and their roots are growing deep.

July, A Month To Take Hold Of The Completed Promise

On May 29, 2021 I had a prophetic dream about the month of July. The Lord showed me that many have birthed their promise, but have yet to take hold of it completely. In the dream I was holding my friends baby and was specifically asking to go down to the lake to take a photo of the baby and I. My friend responded that I had to wait for her sister to go before me and that I would have to wait until July to take the picture with the baby. In the dream I was wearing a v-neck bathing suit with a coverup from the waist down, the bathing suit was white with light pink polka-dots. I was dressed and ready to go, holding the baby, and standing where the lake was in visible distance but I had to wait until July. I then immediately went into another dream that confirmed what the baby or ‘promise’ represented.

As I began to interpret with the Lord on this, I looked up the names of the individuals in the dream and then the meaning became crystal clear. My friends name means “God is my oath” or “God is a vow”, her husband’s name means “God is my judge”, the baby’s name means “completely”, their last name means “fire”, and my friends sister’s name means “Christ” or “anointed one”.  Therefore the interpretation of the dream is as God is my Judge, and as God is my Oath, He is watching over the promise and all that He has vowed, and by the power of His Word, Christ is going before to bring it to completion. 

This timing is pivotal because many are going through the last fires before beholding their promise, do not relent even if these fires carry over in July, as you are almost there! July is the seventh month, and seven represents completion and perfection in the Bible.  My birthday is July 1 and the baby will turn seven months July 31. The Lord is going to bring His promises to completion in your life during the month of July, from beginning to end, watch in this window as many will finally be able to see the picture with clarity and with physical reality. I hear the Lord say, “this is the promise that has been refined in the fire” which symbolically ties into the last name of the mother and father of the baby. 

In the dream I wanted to take a picture at the lake with the baby.  My friend and her family live in Michigan, and Michigan is also the state I was born and raised, home of the Great Lakes.  Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world by surface area. July will be the beginning of the refreshing of your soul, as you synch with the Lord’s timing and wait for Him to go before you, the Holy Spirit will then totally immerse you into this new land and will work a far superior outcome for you.

The time stamp of the dream was 5.29.21 and coincides with Genesis 5:29, “When Lamech was 182 years old a son was born (vs 28). He named him Noah, saying, This one shall bring us relief and comfort from our work and the [grievous] toil of our hands due to the ground being cursed by the Lord.” Lamech named is son Noah, which means “rest”. Like a Noah, this promise you are holding represents the long awaited rest, new covenant, and land in the new era the Lord has vowed to you. Lamech lived 777 years and 7×3=21; dream date 5.29.21. Additionally, three represents the number of the Spirit and there are (3) 7’s at the end of Lamech’s life and 3 trimesters in pregnancy, not to mention water and the Spirit are closely connected. Symbolically the FATHER is both washing away ties to the old season by the Spirit, reseting you by the Spirit through rest, and bringing to completion that which was born of the Spirit!

ROLLING AWAY EGYPT 

“Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.” Hebrews 4:11.  The example of unbelief in this passage is the Israelites who wandered in the desert for 40 years.   As I prepared to release this word on a broadcast recently, the Lord led me to the book of Joshua. The Lord showed me that many have crossed over “the Jordan” from “the 40 years of wilderness” and into their promised land but they had not fully taken possession of it yet. You are in the last stages of healing, so wait on His time! Like the dream, I was holding the baby but had to wait to take the picture. 

Even if the Lord called you to Egypt for a season, He still has to cleanse you from Egypt, and even if the promise was birthed in the desert He still has to cleanse it before you bring it with you and take total possession of your new season and promised land. He is totally cleansing you of your past (even if He called you there), He is removing the dust of the wilderness – those places that no longer serve you, any remaining bondage from the atmosphere, the shame, rejection, fear, and the pain you experienced while waiting. There is a new consecration to walk in holiness and carry the weight of His call and message. I heard the Lord say, “He wants to deliver you, so that He can deliver through you”. You are so close, yet it is crucial you wait out the last stages of the healing! You have crossed the Jordan, you are in the promised land nearly ready to take possession! 

The below scripture is referencing Joshua and the Israelites after they crossed the Jordan. They were in their promised land, though had not taken possession. It was imperative they waited in the camp to heal (from circumcision for consecration) at Gilgal. Once they were healed, then their next assignment was given to them – the strategy for the fall of Jericho. 

“At that time the Lord said to Joshua, Make knives of flint and circumcise the [new generation of] Israelites as before. So Joshua made knives of flint and circumcised the sons of Israel at Gibeath-haaraloth. And this is the reason Joshua circumcised them: all the males of the people who came out of Egypt, all the men of war, had died in the wilderness on the way after they came out of Egypt. Though all the people who came out were circumcised, yet all the people who were born in the wilderness on the way after Israel came out of Egypt had not been circumcised. For the Israelites walked forty years in the wilderness till all who were men of war who came out of Egypt perished, because they did not hearken to the voice of the Lord; to them the Lord swore that He would not let them see the land which the Lord swore to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey. So it was their uncircumcised children whom He raised up in their stead whom Joshua circumcised, because the rite had not been performed on the way. When they finished circumcising all the males of the nation, they remained in their places in the camp till they were healed. And the Lord said to Joshua, This day have I rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you. So the name of the place is called Gilgal [rolling] to this day.” Joshua 5:2-9 AMPC

COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION 

 What you are waiting on is the completion of a transformation. It will be worth the wait! Once Joshua and the newly consecrated men observed Passover after being healed (the death of the past being covered by the blood), then Joshua encountered the commander of the army of the Lord. Symbolically the Lord instructed Joshua to remove his sandals because the land he was about to possess was holy and set apart to the Lord (Joshua 5:10-15). Next the Lord would reveal the plan to conquer Jericho (and it’s great wall) but first the Lord asked Joshua to SEE. “The Lord said to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the mighty warriors.” Joshua 6:2.  I believe the Lord highlighted this passage to me to say we need not look at the wall, natural obstacles, and giants in front of us.  Some are even in the spirit in their promised land, though focusing on their spiritual opponent verses on what the Lord has said. This is a pivotal hour to be raised up in the Spirit and SEE with your spiritual eye what the Lord has given you, not the obstacle in front of you.

The Lord has been using the number four to speak to me for some time now.  Four represents the fulness of the earth, times and seasons, transformation and authority. In complete metamorphosis there are four cycles of life that yield a complete transformation.  The Lord highlighted Joshua 6:4 when speaking of the instructions for the fall of Jericho. “Also, seven priests shall carry seven trumpets [made] of rams’ horns ahead of the ark; then on the seventh day you shall march around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow the trumpets.” There are (4) 7’s listed: 1) seven priests 2) seven trumpets 3) seventh day 4) seven times. The Lord said there is a complete transformation happening within the consecrated Body right now, and you must wait for that completion to be revealed before moving ahead. As 1 Peter 2:9 writes, God’s people are a royal priesthood. The four seven’s can also be interpreted these are the times and days the voice of the Lord will be heard from His priests; those who 1) have consecrated hearts  2) listen to the voice of the Lord  3) see in the Spirit [faith] 4) obey the wisdom of the Lord 5) move at His authority (march)  6) carry the presence and message of the Lord  7) declare He is Lord. 

GOING OUT WITH JOY

Reconnecting the dream, I was wearing a white v-neck bathing suit, with pink polka dots. In the dream I had an awareness of a desire in my heart, because of the v-neck style and when I asked the Lord about it He said, “nurturing”.  White represents purity and consecration and light pink is typically associated with love and romance. Pink is created by blending the colors red and white (passion and purity), it stands for nurturing femininity, symbolizing youth and good health.  Men and women alike have longed to nurture this promise the Lord has given, this promise that many are holding now. I hear the Lord say, “He is making all things new again, there will be no fear to nurture for the vision you are carrying shall come to pass”. 

Polka Dots are symbolic of happiness. The iconic song writer Frank Sinatra had his first hit in 1940, “Polka dots and moon beams”. Though the 1940’s are known as time of war, they are also remembered for commitment, unity, love and romance. The name Frank means “free man” (wikipedia.com), I believe the Lord is liberating the forgotten song of your heart to sound again, as you release this song you will radiate and beam again from the touch of Love. The Lord is restoring the innocence and the nostalgia that was warn away in the desert, He is restoring your pure and innocent love for Him, and the way you relate to others. In the consecration He has cut away the rough edges, and has smoothed over the past seasons with new oil of gladness and joy. 

The Lord prompted me to look at the Hebraic calendar, and I found the month of July holds two different celebrations. “The name of the fifth month on the Jewish calendar, Av, literally means “father.” It is customary to add the name “Menachem,” which means “comforter” or consoler” – so Menachem Av.”(chabad.org). On the 15th Av, 5781 (July 24) “The end of dying in the desert” is celebrated (chabad.org). This end of 40 long years of dying correlates with allowing Egypt to be rolled away from us and complete transformation written above. The Lord is  transitioning you from old covenants to the new covenant during this time. I also found the celebration of Tu B’Av, the Jewish Day of Love celebrated on the same day. When Tu B’Av was celebrated as an ancient holiday, the unwed daughters of Jerusalem would dress in white (sometimes borrowed linen garments) and dance in the vineyards and whoever did not have a wife would come to find his bride. Differing from the 1940’s V day’s of WWII (victory in the war), and the V-neck in my bathing suit, the modern Israeli celebration of Tu B’Av is similar to the V-day of St. Valentine’s Day. I believe the Lord is saying this is a time and season to receive the Father’s nurturing love toward you as He redeems your promised land, and makes you victorious over His enemies. “Never again will you be called “The Forsaken City” or “The Desolate Land.” Your new name will be “The City of God’s Delight” and “The Bride of God,” for the LORD delights in you and will claim you as his bride.” Isaiah 62:4 (NLT)

As you wait upon the Lord walking in the Spirit with careful yieldedness to His leadership, you will be sure to not only birth but behold your long awaited promise! Prepare to take the picture! “You will leave Babylon with joy; you will be led out to the city in peace. The mountains and hills will burst into singing and the trees will shout for joy.” Isaiah 55:12 (GNT)

Promised Land 🍷🍇

What a prophetic picture, named the “Caleb cluster”; in the Bible Caleb was willing to face the giants to inherit his promised land! Caleb in Hebrew means ‘whole hearted’, if you want to drink the new wine, you will have to enter the new era with your whole heart, fearless and devoted, captivated by Love to capture what has been sworn to you. When branded by this fiery Love, intimidation is consumed by its flames and giants are slayed! 🔥⚔️

“Fear and intimidation is a trap that holds you back. But when you place your confidence in the Lord, you will be seated in the high place.” Proverbs 29:25 TPT

PREPARING FOR BATTLE – INTIMACY OUR GREAT WEAPON

Spiritual Warfare 101 ~ Intimacy

The Church and the Bride has been a message the Lord has been cultivating in my heart since my early twenties, though more recently in the last two years there has been a clear directive from Him to focus my attention here, and as a result He has been speaking to me in greater detail regarding. In February of 2020 I released a word that the Lord was preparing us ‘for the hour of power’. In August of 2020 through a vision of the Bride becoming unattached from Jesus’ heart, the Holy Spirit gave me His revelation regarding the Global Church. “We no longer look like the Church birthed in Acts baptized in fire, we have become a weak church because she has lost her power. She lost her power because she unfastened herself from her first love’s heart. Unfastened from God’s heart she lacks understanding and her beloved identity. She does not understand the weapons of warfare. Intimacy is the gateway that will bring understanding to the meaning and capability of each piece of armor. The power of God is deposited in those who have heart postures rooted in purity. From purity to power – the pure in heart see God (Matthew 5:8). We are empowered through our union with Him (Ephesians 6:10). We cannot be in union with someone we do not fellowship with. Union is a connection formed in the secret place. Power is activated in the knowing: to know Him is to have intimacy and to have intimacy is to know Him – “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine” Song of Solomon 6:3. In the knowing you receive His power.”

Many “know” and are familiar with Psalm 91 as a prayer of protection. Psalm 91:1 “He who DWELLS in the secret place of the Most High shall REMAIN STABLE and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand].” You may “know” the scripture, but do you know the Most High? Your stability will come through abiding in the secret place and knowing Him.

In August of 2020 I heard in the Spirit, “The Lord is looking for His covenant keepers”.  Our natural key’s will not unlock the door to the secret place, but rather this key is seen with the spiritual eye, and it looks like a covenant ring and it is named the key of intimacy.  In the Hebrew, the word for dwells is yashab, Strong’s 3427; to sit, remain, dwell. Additional words used in the definition are married and marrying.  The secret place of protection is a place for those who are married to the presence of God. Many find themselves teetering from a stance of love and believing the promises of God back to fear struggling to ward off the lies of the enemy, they are unstable. But as we read above, our stability comes from dwelling. The wise warrior will choose the empowerment of union.  Paul wrote of this union and of its importance one verse prior to the instruction of wearing the full armor, and it is a small but most vital key in battle that is often overlooked. “In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides].” Ephesians 6:10. After union with the Lord is addressed, then Paul writes regarding the full armor.  “Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil. For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere.” Ephesians 6:11,12. 

The secret place will be the shelter where intimacy’s key unlocks mysteries, promises and dreams that position you to ‘conceive and carry out unique developments’ and blueprints for the next outpouring, the new wine. (Excerpt from prophetic word, “Wait Now, I’m Coming” https://ablazeglobalproductions.com/2020/09/01/wait-now-im-coming/) 

On November 3, 2020 at 1:32 a.m. I heard in the Spirit, “The global Church will be reformed through intimacy”.  Reformed defined by Webster’s Dictionary 1828 :  corrected; amended; restored to a good state; as a reformed profligate; the reformed church, formed anew, as a reformed profligate. Profligate defined, an abandoned man; a wretch who has lost all regard to good principles, virtue or decency. I believe the Lord is saying, through intimacy identity is restored and we will be formed anew, reestablished in virtue. We will abandon ‘abandonment’, as we are healed from the orphan spirit and take on our identity as mature sons and daughters, reformed through the rebirth of our salvation. The date I heard “The global Church will be reformed through intimacy,” was 11.3.20.  If we read the numbers Hebraically from right to left we have 2.3.11 and the Lord highlighted 2 Peter 3:11 regarding which reads, “Since all these things are on the verge of being dismantled, don’t you see how vital it is to live a holy life? We must be consumed with godliness”. In context, the Scripture prior is referencing the coming Day of the Lord taking everyone by surprise. The Lord is returning for a pure and spotless Bride, a Bride who has made herself ready, and there is an urgency in the Spirit petitioning to live holy and consecrated lives through the restoration of intimacy. 

Maturity Sustains Intimacy

As I have sat with the Holy Spirit’s words, “intimacy our great weapon”, and yielded to their life in me for months, I believe the Lord gave me a vital piece to releasing this word while attending a glory meeting on Pentecost Sunday, May 23, 2021. While completely engaged in worship I saw a vision of a bee hive flowing over with honey and bees surrounding. I saw this vision more than once, but it only became visible with my neck and head extending far backward with my face parallel to the ceiling – then I could perceive the honey flowing as if over my face. Soon after I saw a vision of a ripe or ‘mature’ yellow banana that was half peeled ready to be eaten. “His left hand cradles my head while his right hand holds me close. I am at rest in this love”. Song of Solomon 2:6

After the service I had an opportunity to share with the minister my two visions and part of the interpretation the Lord had given me.  Yellow banana’s are referred to as mature fruit when they are ripe and ready to eat, and one of the key ways the fruit is effective in the human body is through regulating blood sugar. The Lord was showing me that the hive was a sweet place in the secret place but the message of intimacy must be sustained with mature fruit.  In the same way, the Lord is maturing His Bride and as she remains in Him, the mature fruit she bears will regulate and balance the message of intimacy. 

While I was describing what I saw, I spoke out that the first vision was honeycomb to the minister, although what I saw a hive.  Later I asked the Lord why I did that, knowing the difference between the hive and honeycomb and He said it was because I was perceiving the intimate structure. The honeycomb is found within the hive and serves as its internal structure; it houses the honeybee, the comb forms cells for larvae, and also contains beeswax, pollen, and honey. Beekeepers will remove the entire honeycomb when they harvest honey. Symbolically, I believe intimacy cultivated in the secret place will be a carried message in this divine hour to cross-pollinate, fertilizing fruit and seeds that will develop and mature into an end time breed of Jesus lovers who comb the earth, as intimacy will be a key factor acting as ‘fertilizer’ for the end time harvest. The two visions work in tandem together as one, and is symbolic of the end time Bride becoming the dwellers, or ‘married ones’ as the two become one, thereby demonstrating Oneness with the Bridegroom King. 

“How satisfying to me, my equal, my bride. Your love is my finest wine—intoxicating and thrilling. And your sweet, perfumed praises—so exotic, so pleasing. Your loving words are like the honeycomb to me; your tongue releases milk and honey, for I find the promised land flowing within you. The fragrance of your worshiping love surrounds you with scented robes of white. My darling bride, my private paradise, fastened to my heart. A secret spring that no one else can have are you— my bubbling fountain hidden from public view. What a perfect partner to me now that I have you. Your inward life is now sprouting, bringing forth fruit. What a beautiful paradise unfolds within you. When I’m near you, I smell aromas of the finest spice, for many clusters of my exquisite fruit now grow within your inner garden.” Song of Solomon 4:10-14

HAVE YOU DIED TODAY?

In the world of the Spirit, dreams are fulfilled through dying to them in the natural world and giving the Spirit precedence in your life. When I graduated Bible college many years ago, the Lord told me to “die to your dreams and visions so I can resurrect them”. And there began my journey as a young woman of dying to myself to learn how to allow Christ to live through me, and one of my founding messages I share often.

Death has become a center point of my testimony because here I have found resurrection life. “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.” Revelation 12:11. In my love of word studies, long ago I discovered the word testimony used in this scripture reference in Revelation is the Greek word marturia (evidence given) from the word martus which is where we get the word martyr. So many people want a “testimony”, and while it is good to testify of ones overcoming – the true testament or evidence given of life is of ones dying to self. So if you want a testimony you need to die and ‘let the Overcomer out‘, for it is because of the victory of the cross, we have life.

“Jesus said to all of his followers, “If you truly desire to be my disciple, you must disown your life completely, embrace my ‘cross’ as your own, and surrender to my ways. For if you choose self-sacrifice, giving up your lives for my glory, you will discover true life. But if you choose to keep your lives for yourselves, you will lose what you try to keep.” Luke 9:23-24 TPT

“My old identity has been co-crucified with Christ and no longer lives. And now the essence of this new life is no longer mine, for the Anointed One lives his life through me— we live in union as one! My new life is empowered by the faith of the Son of God who loves me so much that he gave himself for me, dispensing his life into mine!” Galatians 2:20 TPT

When you allow the life of Christ to flow through you, Heaven and earth align to see His love and powerful works readily move through you. You will be in sync with the Lord’s plans and purposes and divine alignment will become the standard as you walk in the footsteps of the Resurrected King who has gone before you.

Have you died today?

The Church needs to get in the tub … scrub a dub dub 🛁🧼 It’s time to wash off the residue of the old systems, ways of thinking, sin, ungodly character, the effects under witchcraft and Jezebel rule including jealously, fear, and control. The Lord is returning, and it’s time we cleanse ourselves.

“Therefore, since we have these [great and wonderful] promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, completing holiness [living a consecrated life—a life set apart for God’s purpose] in the fear of God.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭7:1‬ ‭AMP‬‬

“But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap; [Rev. 6:12-17.] He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver, and He will purify the priests, the sons of Levi, and refine them like gold and silver, that they may offer to the Lord offerings in righteousness.”
‭‭Malachi‬ ‭3:2-3‬ ‭AMPC‬‬
