"POWER TO ENDURE"

DON'T BE SO NAIVE AND SELF CONFIDENT

YOU'RE NOT EXEMPT.

YOU COULD FALL FLAT ON YOUR FACE

AS EASILY AS ANYONE ELSE.

FORGET ABOUT SELF-CONFIDENCE,

IT'S USELESS.

CULTIVATE GOD-CONFIDENCE.

NO TEST OR TEMPTATION THAT COMES

YOUR WAY,

IS BEYOND  THE COURSE OF WHAT OTHERS HAD TO FACE.

ALL YOU NEED TO REMEMBER IS GOD WILL

NEVER LET YOU DOWN;

HE WILL NEVER LET YOU BE PUSHED PAST YOUR LIMIT;

HE'LL ALWAYS BE THERE TO HELP

YOU COME THROUGH IT.

1 COR: 10:13 (THE MESSAGE BIBLE)

"GOD IS FAITHFUL, TO DO FOR YOU TODAY, BEYOND YOUR ASKING, BEYOND YOUR THINKING. ACCORDING TO HIS POWER THAT IS ALREADY IN YOU...AMEN."

"THE FOUNTAIN GOD"

MY PEOPLE HAVE TRADED

MY GLORY

FOR EMPTY GOD-DREAMS

AND SILLY GOD - SCHEMES

STAND IN SOCK, HEAVENS,

AT WHAT YOU SEE!

THROW UP YOUR HANDS IN DISBELIEF

THIS CAN'T BE!

GOD DECLARES.

"MY PEOPLE HAVE COMMITTED A

COMPOUND SIN;

THEY'VE WALKED OUT ME,

THE FOUNTAIN

OF FRESH FLOWING WATERS,

AND THEN DUG CISTERNS-

CISTERNS THAT LEAK,

CISTERNS THAT ARE NO BETTER

THEN SIEVES.(CAN NOT HOLD WATER)

JEREMIAH 2:11-13

JESUS SAID; "IF YOU KNEW THE GENEROSITY

OF GOD,

AND WHO I AM,

YOU WOULD BE ASKING ME FOR

A DRINK,

AND I WOULD GIVE YOU FRESH,

LIVING WATER."

JOHN 4:10

DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; WHERE ARE YOU DIGGING FOR LIVING WATERS ?

HAVE YOU MADE A TRADE, FOR EMPTY DREAMS AND SCHEMES ? THESE VESSELS WILL LEAK WITH DISAPPOINTMENT AND FAILURE. YOUR THIRST FOR PEACE AND REST WILL BE FLEETING.

GOD IS YOUR FOUNTAIN, DRAW FROM HIM DAILY, CONTINUOUSLY, AND HE WILL GIVE YOU FRESH, "LIVING WATER."

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?"

"BEHOLD, I AM COMING SOON! 

 BLESSED IS HE WHO KEEPS THE WORDS OF THE

PROPHECY IN THIS BOOK.

"BEHOLD,

I AM COMING SOON!

MY REWARD IS WITH ME,

AND I WILL GIVE TO EVERYONE

ACCORDING TO WHAT HE HAS DONE.

I AM THE ALPHA

AND,

THE OMEGA,

THE FIRST

AND THE

LAST,

THE BEGINNING AND THE

END."

"BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO WASH 

THEIR ROBES,

THAT THEY MIGHT HAVE THE RIGHT TO

THE TREE OF LIFE,

AND MAY GO THROUGH THE GATES

INTO THE CITY.

OUTSIDE ARE THE DOGS,

THOSE WHO PRACTICE

MAGIC ARTS,

THE SEXUALLY IMMORAL,

THE MURDERERS, IDOLATERS

AND EVERYONE WHO LOVES

AND PRACTICES FALSEHOOD.

" I JESUS, HAVE SENT MY ANGEL TO GIVE YOU THIS TESTIMONY FOR THE

  CHURCHES,

  I AM THE ROOT AND OFFSPRING OF DAVID,

  AND THE

 BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR."

REV: 21:12-16

DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; THIS MORNING AS I MEDIATE ON THESE WORDS OF JESUS, I FEEL SO UNWORTHY TO ADD ONE THOUGHT TO THIS DIVINE AND HOLY TONGUE.

SO INSTEAD, I JOIN YOU IN THE BOWING OF MY KNEES BEFORE OUR GLORIOUS KING,

AND PRAY THAT TOGETHER, WE MAY STRENGTHEN EACH OTHER, AS WE TRAVEL TOGETHER TOWARD THE CITY OF THE GREAT KING!...AMEN!

"LIVING STONES"

AS YOU COME TO HIM,

THE LIVING STONE REJECTED

BY MEN,

BUT CHOSEN BY GOD

AND PRECIOUS TO HIM

YOU ALSO,

LIKE LIVING STONES,

ARE BEING BUILT INTO A

SPIRITUAL HOUSE

TO BE

A HOLY PRIESTHOOD,

OFFERING SPIRITUAL SACRIFICES

ACCEPTABLE TO GOD

THROUGH JESUS CHRIST!

1 PETER 2:4-5

CHURCH!  "YOU ARE HIS HOUSE!"  LIVING STONES, HOLY PRIESTHOOD. OFFERING SPIRITUAL SACRIFICES AT THE ALTER OF YOUR PRAYER ROOM. SHOUT TO HIM! WEEP BEFORE HIM, BECAUSE ONCE YOU WERE NOT A PEOPLE BUT NOW, WE ARE THE PEOPLE OF GOD!

YOU ARE ACCEPTABLE TO THE LORD OF LORDS, AND KING OF KINGS!  YOU ARE HIS PRIESTS, AND HIS HOUSE OF WHICH HE DWELLS...THINK ON THESE THINGS.

AMEN.

"THE BATTLE CRY OF THE LORD"

THE LORD WILL MARCH OUT LIKE A MIGHTY MAN,

LIKE A WARRIOR HE WILL STIR UP HIS ZEAL;

WITH A SHOUT HE WILL RAISE THE

BATTLE CRY,

AND WILL TRIUMPH OVER HIS ENEMIES.

"FOR A LONG TIME I HAVE KEPT SILENT,

 I HAVE BEEN QUIET AND HELD MYSELF BACK.

 BUT NOW,

 LIKE A WOMAN IN CHILDBIRTH,

 I CRY OUT, I GASP AND PANT.

 I WILL LAY WASTE THE MOUNTAINS AND HILLS

 AND DRY UP ALL THEIR VEGETATION;

 I WILL TURN RIVERS INTO ISLANDS

 AND DRY UP POOLS".

 I WILL LEAD THE BLIND BY WAYS THEY HAVE

 NOT KNOWN,

 ALONG UNFAMILIAR PATHS

 I WILL GUIDE THEM;

 I WILL TURN THE DARKNESS INTO LIGHT BEFORE

 THEM

 AND ROUGH PLACES SMOOTH.

 THESE ARE THE THINGS I WILL DO;

 I WILL NOT  FORSAKE THEM.

 BUT THOSE WHO TRUST IN IDOLS,

 WHO SAY TO IMAGES,

 YOU ARE OUR GODS;

  WILL BE TURNED BACK

  IN UTTER SHAME.

 ISAIAH 42:13-17

DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; IF THERE WAS EVER A TIME YOU AS A HOLY NATION  TO BOW YOUR KNEES IN PRAYER, FOR YOUR NATION IT IS NOW. ONCE A PEOPLE CHOOSE OTHER GODS, AND IDOL BELIEFS; GOD LIKE A WARRIOR WILL RISE. LIKE A WOMAN IN CHILDBIRTH .HE WILL SAVE THE BLIND AND HELPLESS IN THE MIDST OF WICKNESS. HE WILL LEAD THEM, AND MAKE THE ROUGH PLACES SMOOTH.

MOUNTAINS AND HILLS WILL BE LAYED WASTE;

DRYED UP VEGETATION;

RIVERS INTO ISLANDS;

DRY UP POOLS.

THESE ARE THE THINGS HE WILL DO TO A NATION

WHO HAS TURNED TO IDOLS.

THE VALLEY OF DECISION HAS BEEN PASSED, THE TIME FOR THE CHURCH (HOLY NATION), HAS COME TO REPENT FROM HER SINS. TIME TO WEEP AT THE ALTER, BEYOND THE VEIL.

"GOD BLESS AMERICA"

"THE BATTLE IS GOD'S"

"DO NOT BE AFRAID OR DISCOURAGED

BECAUSE OF THIS VAST ARMY.

FOR THE BATTLE IS NOT YOURS, BUT GOD'S.

TOMORROW MARCH DOWN AGAINST THEM.

THEY WILL BE CLIMBING UP THE PASS OF ZIZ,

AND YOU WILL FIND THEM AT THE END

OF THE GORGE IN THE DESERT OF JERUEL.

YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO FIGHT THE BATTLE.

TAKE UP YOUR POSITIONS;

STAND FIRM

AND SEE THE DELIVERANCE THE LORD

WILL GIVE YOU.

DO NOT BE AFRAID; DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED.

GO OUT TO FACE THEM TOMORROW,

AND THE LORD WILL BE WITH YOU."

2 CHRONICLES 20:15-17

DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; GOD NOT ONLY REVEALS IN THESE VERSES THAT YOUR BATTLE IS NOT YOURS, BUT HIS. HE REVEALS YOUR ENEMY AS OPEN TO HIS EYES, NOTHING HIDDEN, NO SURPISES TO THE ONE WHO WATCHES OVER YOU. 

"THEY WILL BE CLIMBING UP THE PASS OF ZIZ

  AND YOU WILL FIND THEM AT THE END

  OF THE GORGE IN THE DESERT OF JERUEL."

GOD SEES THE ENEMY, AND THE BATTLE YOU ARE IN WITH HIM.

SO GOD HAS ONE REQUEST OF YOU;

"TAKE UP YOUR POSITION," BY WHICH YOU WILL VIEW THE GREAT VICTORY HE WILL GIVE YOU.   TOMORROW ?  WAIT ON HIM.

"THE VALLEY OF "IF".

IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY

MY NAME,

WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES AND PRAY AND SEEK

MY FACE,

AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS,

THEN WILL I HEAR FROM HEAVEN

AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SIN AND HEAL THEIR

LAND.

NOW MY EYES WILL BE OPEN AND MY EARS

ATTENTIVE TO THE PRAYERS IN OFFERED

IN THIS PLACE.

2 CHRONICLES 7:14-15

DEAR PRECIOUS BELIEVER; IN 1 PETER 2:9 WE ARE  CALL A "HOLY NATION". OUR NATION IS A PATIENT ON THE LIFE SUPPORT OF FAILED UNHOLY PHILOSOPHIES. SO THERE ARE TWO NATIONS, THE FIRST IS THE CHURCH,(LIVING STONES), THE SECOND IS THE PHYSICAL NATION THAT THE "HOLY NATION," HAS BEEN CALLED TO DWELL, AND TO CULTIVATE HOLINESS FROM ABOVE.

THE ONLY MATTER STANDING BETWEEN THESE TWO NATIONS, IN ORDER FOR THE NATION TO BE HEALED IS THE WORD, "IF".  "THE VALLEY OF IF."   "IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME".............
