There are times when you have a plan and the HOLY SPIRIT says STOP AND WORSHIP. You pray and pray, but just STOP AND WORSHIP. You set the timer for 90 minutes to get everything done before your next thing but STOP AND WORSHIP. It’s Saturday Lord and I don’t have much time..but STOP and WORSHIP. And so I STOP AND WORSHIP because what is really more important? There is nothing more I need to tell Him, there is nothing more to say, He knows who I’m praying for, He knows the burdens of my heart and so I stop to realize it’s already done and now I worship to usher in the manifestation of His promises. Sometimes He just sneaks up on you at 12:30 on a Saturday afternoon.

So speak to it, speak to this and speak to that but speak. Let My words join with your words to bring about change and power. But, if you don’t speak what do I join to? First steps,  baby steps, not alone steps just speak steps.

Me:  I’m calling out to you because “You’re a good, good father. That’s who you are”
Never leaving, never alone even in the darkest times. You always stay and are always present.
His reply:
I’m always here in the deep recesses, sometimes silent, watching but always present.
Keep pressing, you just can’t stop. You are pushing the boulder uphill but it’s rolling now, don’t stop. I’m there pushing, you are not alone.

Me:  thankful🙏🏾

The anointing is now, the power is Me. Lifesaver –even November 1983 that’s what you were, that’s what was called out in you. Why? More will be revealed. You are a lifesaver in a way you don’t even understand, you save lives through prayer. There are times when the heavens are silent but you prayed. Teach prayer. Pray always.

Chains breaking and falling off, prayer breaks the chains, prayer is the power to break the chains. Even this day the chain broke. The limits on the mind are broken. Wasting away has been a plot of the enemy, wasting callings, wasting gifts, wasting anointing. No more. You see, the enemy can pronounce something over you and everyone treat you according to that pronouncement but then he wakes up ONE that sees you differently; that dares to look at you with a new vision and anointing. Be the one of second chances. Peer through the curtain, pierce the veil and see the truth

Right now it doesn’t matter the device, it doesn’t matter the money, it doesn’t even matter the entry, all that matters is the spirit man and if it is strong enough to resist the devil; resist the temptation. Wake up that man and all else flees.

Reminders, life is full of reminders. Reminders of My faithfulness, reminders of My promises and reminders of mistakes. Focus on the positive and call it forth. Isn’t it amazing how much the enemy is in your head and your thoughts and you think “will I ever be free”? Free is like an exercise, a muscle you have to work to be free. Work it.

In this case, in this situation, silence is not golden …its deadly. Go back to see how many times I’ve told you to speak to it, to declare. Not just declare to me, to the heavens, to the open spaces, but to the actual people affected; to the ones for who you are praying. Call it forth in their face, in this presence be bold and very courageous. Silence is a killer but words bring life. I’m so proud of your courage. I know it’s not easy and you would rather bury yourself in the sand. You’d rather come to me than face this giant. But you will face it. You will stare it down and you will not flinch. You will smile and pursue and take him out.

(I love that I will smile while taking out the enemy)

You see? You now know it’s all in My hands. I’ve laid out the instruction and you were faithful to get it down, document it. You wondered why you didn’t push it out but now it’s time to push it out. Now it’s time. The oppressor will leave because you will stand at the threshold and tell the enemy –come in, get comfortable and find rest and then you will defeat the enemy.

Stand in the doors take authority at the thresholds.

(Years ago as we were randomly selecting pieces of paper, believing that each slip would describe who we are in the spirit, I selected the slip with the name Jael.)

The next time, the next year when you pull into this spot, this place, there will be a difference. How much to bare up..the load, the stress, the weariness?  Breathe in deep breaths and soak…
