Good Morning Christian Family,

You have not heard from me in some time but please believe and trust that you have been in my heart, spirit and prayers. Before I begin let me say that I do not consider myself an eloquent writer and have never desired to be. As a reader and a writer I have always enjoyed getting to the sentiment, the matters of the heart of a story. I would rather have the time spent in deep thought over the Word not words. “Make it plain” I have heard this from more than one of my mentors consisting of professors, newspaper editors and preachers. In other words this message is not for admiration of my writing skills but for the sole purpose of conveying a revelation. So if it is okay with you, can we just talk? I would just like to talk to you, from a sister to her family.

As I was saying you have not heard from me in some time, you know there are times when we need to just get away with Jesus, have that one on one relationship with the Counselor. We need to spend intimate time with the Master; this has been one of those times. As we begin a new year it is important at least for me to contemplate on how willing am I to be “what” the Lord has chosen me to be for His pleasure. In probing for the identity or the nature of my purpose on a higher dimension, I had to question my strength. How willing was I to be re-born in this higher dimension of God’s Image? Was I willing to take myself, all of me and become this sacrificial offering to my Lord? I realized that to become deeper in Him required a deeper commitment of trust and faith which I had not fathomed. You see almost two years ago I got this idea for a book “The Chronicles on the Path of a Prophet”, well at that time, silly me I thought it was ‘my idea’. Anyway later on I started hearing God’s voice more frequently and ‘I had this idea’ of writing these messages down. Did you hear me, “I had”? By now it should be obvious to some that I have to be God –led to speak to you in this manner – for it should also be obvious how foolish I was in my thinking. I thought I had a clearer understanding of being a prostrated servant in total submission and service to God but this was not the case. I found that in order to reach this elevation I had to relinquish all traces and traits of me. So with this in mind I stand naked and transparent to be used as a vessel!

Below is one of the messages that the Holy Spirit gave me in 2008 which will bring us to the lesson I learned. Hopefully some of you will gather some insight or perhaps some of you will remember when you began to ‘truly trust’ and why you ‘truly trust’ the Lord, even when you don’t understand, even when it doesn’t make any sense and even when it just seems too far out there to have any connection to reality.

Message:
“The situation after five years is almost over, the strategy for victory is that you stay prayerful, extremely watchful and rely totally on God for your total deliverance. That the true victory is not the accomplishments you have made while suffering in woe”. I heard " though you walk free upon this land because you still have not grown to your true belief and station you are as “If” in captivity, believe in the prism’s facets of who I AM .The true battle will be won, when all will see; believers and unbelievers how God will manifest Himself through this triumph".

Lesson:

Thus saith the Lord …

23 But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. 24 God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth. John 4:23-24
We can be imprisoned by our own hurts and pains of the past; shackled and bound to UN fulfillment. These frailties of insecurity are attached to the spirit of fear which is a device of the enemy. The word execute has a double identity and an opposing meaning. We can chose to live in fear which will cause us to execute “put to death” our own gifts or we can chose to execute “to perform “in those gifts. We can rid ourselves of this prison with the Word of God which says in Romans 8:15 for ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.

For instance God has given me the gifts of exhortation, poetic scribe, prophesy and tongues. Do I choose to quench the Holy Spirit and these gifts because of Nay Sayers? I remember that once my drama professor asked our class if we had one gift to give the world what would it be. I replied “compassion, for with compassion comes tolerance, understanding and finally love for others”. So what now, since I now find myself in a setting where I am under a constant microscope? Do I suppress this natural instinct of showing appreciation when it is as much a part of me as the breaths I take? Do I not give reverence to my leaders and comrades who without their prophetic teachings, sermons and prayers my journey to God’s ultimate purpose in my life would be a rocky and slippery climb; or do I exalt my God’s Glory through acknowledging them without fear of being seen as a sinister flatterer? Do I choose to quench the Holy Spirit because of the fear of rejection or scrutiny or do I trust in the knowing that we are creatures created for the pleasure of God .I will trust God for I recognize and hear His voice and I choose to do His bidding.

But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that his life may be revealed in our mortal body.
2 Corinthians 4:7-11


I know all of us at one time or another has walked an uphill climb if we truly love the Lord. I know every time we have walked up that mountain it has been a struggle and we have left doubt, resentment, anger, debt, illness, strife and fear at the altar ; we have gone up full of self and come down full of God . But the climb becomes the roughest of terrain when you are carrying upon your shoulders the heavy burdened spirit of offense. One might ask why is the spirit of offense so grievous? I surmise because it is human nature to be offended when you have been wronged by your neighbor, especially when all you are doing is “thus saith the Lord” loving thy neighbor as thy self. This spirit not only becomes a back-breaking spiritual burden but also one of heart breaking magnitude. There is a carnal validity to be offended when you are walking in love wishing only joy , peace and prosperity for others and rewarded with malicious treatment. I now fully understand my elders saying “Now that is a hard hill to climb”; you see it’s easier to remember and obey a “thus saith the Lord” when you have wronged your neighbor in some way, for the conscience will convict you. But what if you have not harmed that neighbor, what then? I stand before you and say “I am a living witness that the climb becomes even harder and more excruciating when you must remember and obey the “thus saith the Lord” Matthew 5:44 But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which spitefully use you, and persecute you. We have no chose in the choosing or obeying of what says the Lord. In Romans 12:1 the Apostle Paul says “I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship”. I had to surrender all even after I had thought I had given all. I had to understand it was prevalent to fulfilling God’s Will according to God’s mandate for my life. Until I could do this I was an idolater of my own will and adulterer to God’s Will. Until I could do this I was unable to see within the multi- facet prisms of the Great I AM. Until I could do this I was unable to climb this metaphoric Mt Moriah in an Abraham spirit and lay myself in an Isaac spirit on the sacrificial altar and trust God. I had to cry out “If I’ve got to hurt, I’ll hurt; if I’ve got to cry I’ll cry, I lay as a living sacrifice for Your Will to be done in my life! Lord rid me of everything, EVERYTHING that is not pleasing to you”. In the Holy Scriptures we are taught we are created for God’s pleasure. We read in Revelation 4:11, Apostle John has a vision of Heaven and witnesses the four elders prostrate before the Lord of all Creation, saying: “Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”

So this is my message this morning …No matter what you are going through, Trust God. Even if the storms of life are creeping at the door of your house, the place where the soul resides; the stormy waters are seeping in, Trust God. Whether you are ankle deep in sorrow and hurt, or you are waist high in resentment and fear or the floods of debt have overtaken your house and all that dwells within, Trust God. Even if it seems you can barely keep your head above the waters and it appears you will drown at any minute with offense and UN forgiveness, Trust God. Cry out as King David in the book of Psalms “Rejoice in the Lord, O my soul”. Climb your Mt Moriah and build your altar as Abraham. Trust Him for the rages and ravages of the enemy will not be able to overtake you. Lie as a living sacrifice, obey and be rewarded there is a pre destined ram waiting in the bush. Your journey down the mountain will be full of praise and peace … “for you have trusted in the Lord with all your heart and have not leaned to your own understanding, you have acknowledged Him in all ways and He has made you paths straight”. Ps 3: 5-6
