Word from the
KING OF KINGS AND THE LORD OF LORDS:
Quiet Consecration
Be quick to listen. Slow to speak.
This is a great and important discipline.
For the tongue is full of deadly poison.
I will be a spirit of justice who sits in judgment, and source of strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate. (Isaiah 28:6)
Rejoice. Rejoice. Rejoice.
Sharpen discernment through prayer and fasting and by seeking me in my Word. I am the Word.
There is nothing new under the Son, except the New Song, which is as ancient as the days and as eternal and infinite as my love.
Hear my simple song in your heart. Hear me sing and exult over you as your Father who loves you. Mercy is better than sacrifice.
Remember the pious man, who thanked me that he was not like others, for the works of his hands and was therefore, cast off. (Luke 18:11) Posture your heart in contrition, and simply ask as the tax collector and thief, "What a wretched sinner I am!"
Remember the Passover.
Attune to my Spirit and remove all that I say, without question, opinion or understanding. Trust me. I am healing you. I am riding against every burden from the enemy that you are powerless to see with eyes that are perishing.
My daughter, it is time to share the vision.
(YHWH is referring to a time that I was swept up in the Spirit, after he told me to prepare the armory. I was blinded by the pulsing power and light of God and taken into the war room of Heaven. It was spectacular, but the experience was so awesome and the weight of glory so heavy, that I was sweating and trembling.
By the time it subsided, two hours had gone by. I was preparing for how I would explain myself to those around me, but it was as if it never happened and no one noticed a thing. I was in awe. It's the only time I've seen Jesus. The war room was busy and full of life, excitement and activity. Jesus was wearing a red robe and he was dispatching and delegating angels and beings that I didn't even recognize.
There was something so awesome and holy about the "humanness" of his his facial expressions and interactions with others, like a perfect Holy One, with a vibrant personality, without anything fallen or corrupted.
He poured over “plans” as angels and people were coming and going. His brow was furrowed, with vindication and decisiveness about the devil's plans in the lives of many believers, which brought me great peace. Every tiny, seemingly insignificant detail was overseen by Him. Every single one. His authority was powerful, and terrible and mighty. I could feel the wind on his red robe, as he turned to storm away, to get something or to do something, in response to something that a huge angel was reporting. The indignance and power of his turn on his heel was both frightening and soothing.
As you are learning to wait on me, you have seen that you need my wisdom and discernment and that no detail of your life is too small. As I am quieting the rioting of the suffering souls of my people, that rage against my perfect plan, expect the increase of my voice in your ears, as on the day of your testimony of my manifest power.
I will be your sovereign strength. I will make your feet like the feet of a deer and enable you to tread on the heights.
Beware the skandalon, the spirit of offense, that ensnares hearts and attention. It will only serve to blind.
Listen carefully, my people:
You cannot enter my rest while you are yoked with those who have not entered it.
There are landmines and snares, beneath the spring soil that will allow a brief flourishing and then will languish as in parched land, for their roots can reach no further into the soil to draw from the nourishment of my Word. Like oak trees on shallow soil, they are top heavy, and will fall when the wind comes, because their roots have wrapped around the snares of the enemy above my living water.
Beware the leaven of the Pharisees. The witchcraft is in their words. Reject enchantment. Test every spirit, how I lead you and do not be ensnared by love and compassion through the bondage of others. I have given eyes to see. The day I struck you blind, with the light of my glory, was for the scales of pride to fall, to see eye to eye with me, the schemes of the enemy. Cease to doubt my vision, oh my people! Don't despise the eyes I gave you to see with!
Yes, the time is at hand for the fulfillment of all things. But, do not make a God of time, like the pagans do. I AM eternal and it is in ME that you live and move and have your being. In me, day is like a thousand and a thousand years, like a day. For those around you, did not even notice that you were gone. I will do many strange and mysterious things as you humble yourself and quiet your soul and flesh and the world to hear from me. Wait on me without growing restless or impatient. Are you in me, or are you watching the hourglass wane? Don't make an idol of the ticking clock, for I am about to confound all that is left within you that is proud, wise, prudent and strong. You are my body, and that requires much death to the vanity of your own thoughts, opinions, and works.
Do you know me? If you know me, then you know love. For those who do not know love do not know me. Narrow is the gate and few find it. Many will strive to enter, but will not be able to.
From where comes your striving, there be your destination.
Striving from pressure, condemnation, accusation and fear is profane. It is a Jezebel spirit of control and the network of operations is older and greater than the number of men.
Strive to enter my rest, before you go, or otherwise hear from me, or many will be infected with the leaven that I must remove in this place of quiet communion and consecration. Carry no burden into the gates. You can carry no burden into the gates. Many have entered a wider gate, that is not my Son, because they did not wait on me to unburden them, to be sent. Do not burden others. The stumbling block of offense to those who are perishing is the tripping over their own burdens, because my sheep won't pick up their own captivity. Misery loves company. Peace needs none. In the time of transition, beware the wolves that cat call after the pain of all that I am healing, to draw you into their den of iniquity. Listen to and obey my voice. Embrace silence. I have prepared for my people, a table and a feast, in the presence of their enemies. Deafen your ears to the snarl of envy, where confusion and all manner of evil abound. Sing the song that I have given you. Pray for those who persecute you. Laugh without fear of the future. Immediately look to meet my gaze, when you are struck, and I will dissolve the arrows in the light of my perfect peace, sovereignty, foreknowledge and love.
There is a feast prepared for you. My sheep appear lean to the religious, but are fat in the abundance of all spiritual blessings. My kingdom is not of this world. There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. Strive to enter it. Strive to enter my rest. Simplify. Get your house in order. Behind many treasures, you will find lurking, much darkness. Rejoice in your mourning.
There is much weight that my bride must lose, spiritually and practically, so that she can tend to the oil in her lamp and wait on me, like Mary did. Choose what is better. I cannot carry you across the threshold of what is narrow, with the bulk of many.
The son of man has no where to lay his head.
Be still and know that I AM that I AM.
But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2 Cor. 11:3
Compare the scriptures below, for a fascinating portrayal of the true "144,000" (*not a literal number, but symbolic of governance, understanding, and perception, in strong's concordance.)
The undefiled "first fruits" (the "144k") is the remnant, who works the harvest in the last days, in the spirit of the two witnesses, with the sackcloth and ashes of suffering, rejection, love and humility. One of these witnesses is the prophesied outpouring of the spirit of Elijah to call for repentance and reconciliation unto God, YHWH, through Jesus, alone (Malachi 4:5-6).
