Hidden Power of Love in the Family

January 17, 2017

Let us pray that the Lord will grant us love, patience and courage as we live our day to day lives in our families and that we will fulfill His will for us as husbands, wives and parents.

I asked the Lord what He wanted to talk to me about tonight, and He said:

"Love. There is no better remedy for all your ills and all the ills of mankind than love that has no conditions and bears with contradictions, misunderstandings, disputes, and sins of all kinds. It is still love that is the antidote.

"Many of you have learned through example and experience that Love is the fail-safe way to handle all situations that are headed for disaster. Love is patient, love is kind, love does not show off nor arrogantly defend its position. Love never fails. It never fails to hope and eventually, though you see it not, I bring all things back around to love. The only exception is for those who have chosen to hate and want nothing to do with Me or with Love. 
 
"Those are the lost souls, who could not bring themselves to agree with anything heavenly. They had to stand against all that did not serve to enlarge their bitterness and hatred. These souls can be made to comply on the outside, but at the first opportunity, hatred and bitterness will out and they will oppose all that is good, healing and forgiving.

"This is why I have told you, 'Don't let the sun go down on your wrath.' Because if you allow those seeds to send roots into the soil of your heart, by morning you will be fighting not just thoughts or seeds, but strongholds. Yet there are times when you sleep that I take you aside and bring healing and in the morning's first light you are anxious to make amends in the situation that before had caused you bitterness. This is My supernatural help for My Beautiful Bride when she is deeply wounded.

"In fact. I do much with your souls at night. Sometimes your dreams will reflect what we did together with family members and you will awake with a fresh perspective on their prayer needs. Clare, the dream you had this morning was one of those times. There is a soul crying out for your intercession. Do not neglect this."

Oh, thank you Lord, for confirming it.

"So many times your intellect has already given up on an area of your family that is far from hopeless. I bring you dreams and experiences in the spirit with them in order to resurrect those feelings you once had between you. I know you do not want to look at the failures of the past, but remember that, while you are growing, so are they - and they need your prayers.

"The substance of your dreams, My Bride, has to do with your spiritual work. I'm not talking about senseless dreams or nightmares, but those epic dreams you have that reflect an area of your consciousness that you are involved with the world in. Sometimes they are prophetic; sometimes they are from lying demons. It is up to you to discern the source. The signature of the Holy Spirit is always peace. A peace that transcends understanding, a clarity and understanding that brings peace.

"Many try to compartmentalize symbolism in their dreams. It's not that easy. I speak to each individual on the levels of their own understanding and familiarity, rather than in a set pattern. There are a few exceptions to the rule, but I ask you not to assume that a symbol means to you what it means to others. Again, I am speaking with you and giving you insight - and each symbol I use has a history behind it that only you understand.

"Now an exception to that is prophetic dreams that have to do with the world. In which case, many symbols are common across the prophetic sphere and it's safe to assume that certain symbols in your dream have prophetic meaning that recurs throughout history.

"Always ask My Holy Spirit to give you insight into your dreams. Bring them before Me in your dwelling prayer and lay them at My feet to provide you with the necessary insight.

"Beware of dreams that cause you to be angry, resentful, jealous or judgmental. These are from the enemy. My Spirit is one of peace and understanding, never fear or condemnation, although I will warn you in dreams not to get involved with certain people and situations. Visitation dreams are very, very special, because they are so real."

And I'd just like to say here, that a visitation would be a dream where you had an experience with Holy Spirit or God the Father or Jesus. Or Elijah or one of the prophets. Very, very special. And something definitely worth remembering and making a memorial for.

"My People, build an altar there when you have a dream that is a special grace. What I mean by building an altar is to make a memorial stone, whether it be an entry in your journal with Rhema cards that you will use at a future time, or an object reminding you of the dream. I will very often confirm dreams, messages and thoughts with an object in the physical world. It may be a heart-shaped fruit, a smear of butter, the way an egg cooks or one of your animals insisting that you allow them to groom you."

I love those kinds of confirmations!

"I very often use your animals and things in nature to get your attention. Cloud formations, rocks that cry out with a message in their shape, birds, flowers blooming out of season - oh, so many many ways I try to get your attention. If you see something that edifies you and confirms a thought or direction, you are wise to assume it is My sign to you. Take a photo of it and keep it in your journal. That is an altar honoring My promises to you."

And what I've noticed about that is, when my faith wavers or I'm under attack, I go back in my journals and I look at those altar stones, so to speak. It give me strength and courage and reminds me that the Lord is faithful.

He continued, "I speak to you in many ways during your day. You perceive less than half of them. Especially when it is something you'd rather not hear. But understand, My dear ones, I am trying to divert you from things that are not healthy and will cause pain.

"At such times, it is always best to sit quietly with Me and give Me your full attention, wait until My presence becomes clearer. Then listen, very carefully. I do not stop you in your tracks for no reason at all, there is always a reason. Your corresponding to My invitation to listen will bring you into the sweetest kind of intimacy with Me and save you many painful losses.

"But as I began this message with love I want to close with love. Right now many of you are in conflict with your families and spouses. I have never called you to be so holy that you are unapproachable or indifferent to their needs. Go out of your way to meet the desires of your spouses and children. If you spurn their needs because of your relationship with Me, you will cause them to resent Me in your life, and drive them further away. 
 
"I'm not talking about sin; never give in to any sin. Stand against it with gentle resolve, never harsh condemnation or judgement. 
 
"I'm talking about the innocent things your husband and children need you to be present for. You are a light shining in the darkness. You bring Me with you everywhere you go and My presence should bring joy, peace and brotherly love. But if you are harboring resentment for the time you must give them, you will not reflect those things. Rather there will be an underlying tension and a sense that you're really not there for them, that other things are more important. 
 
"May I say, nothing is more important in a marriage than making your family and especially your spouse feel loved and honored without any trace of resentment hiding in your heart or thoughts?"

And here I know from previous lessons from the Lord that He's not excluding prayer and proper conversation. For instance, no gossip or judging between the two of you. Those are super poisonous things that will destroy a marriage, because it opens so many doors. But He's also talked about, of course, the importance in prayer and putting Him first in your heart, your mind and your life. What He's talking about here is the allowance He wants you to make for your family. Even though, sometimes you want to be in prayer. Sometimes it's more judicious and it's better to take care of the needs of your family, and it'll go farther towards their conversion than if you lock yourself up and remain remote.

Jesus continued, "Nothing turns a man off to 'religion' as fast as a self-righteous, super-spiritual wife. It is degrading and belittling to him and rather than compete with you to be holy, he will run the other way. Rather you should be engaging him and honoring the place I have given him in your life. Many times I will speak truth and correct direction through an unbelieving spouse. Why? Because I honor and confirm his authority in the family. That does not mean that you are bound to indulge in sin, there are delicate ways to back away from anything that troubles your conscience.

"Yet you must learn the difference between a spirit of religion or religious spirit, and My tender Spirit leading you to do things that will endear you to him and build him up. It is not easy to build up a man who is not pursuing Me with his whole heart. But part of what I created you to do is to make him feel capable of hearing from Me by honoring him, and complementing him when he turns to Me. 
 
"This is why I exhort you to do everything from a spirit of love. Many have ruined their marriages beyond repair by being super-spiritual and doing all kinds of 'big' things for Me, when all I wanted was for them to love their families as an example of how I love them. When they feel loved and honored they are drawn to Me because you, indeed, are flowing freely from rivers of living waters which I have cleansed and nourished you with.

"They will desire the headwaters of this river because it is Love. And Love does its work silently in the soul until they are tired of the world and its rewards, at which point they hunger for authentic love. Be that love to them, My Beautiful spouse. Be that love to them and never, ever make them feel little or insufficient before Me."

Defensive Power Unleashed in Giving Thanks

December 1, 2016

May the peace of Christ reign in our lives and make this season holy as we gather our families together.

Well, my dearest family, the Lord has truly brought forth His wisdom for this time when families see one another again. We know that for some, this may be the last time we see them on this Earth and so it is a perfect opportunity to heal and love one another.

The enemy, every year, sends out armies of demons to cause division, misunderstanding and wounding in the family. First between husband and wife and then between siblings and relatives. Knowing this ahead of time, we can be prepared both by spiritual warfare and strengthened in virtue, knowing that only love and its fruits will conquer evil.

So, yesterday when I had my communion service, the readings were from Colossians 3, and they truly brought home everything the Lord has been teaching us about our relationships with others and how easily we get seeds of resentment, with which the enemy builds strongholds of unforgiveness. I've been monitoring myself very carefully and notice I have 'buttons' or 'hot spots,' places where I recoil inside and begin grudging and complaining internally. Although I don't let it show externally, most of the time, I feel it inside and it takes the joy out of whatever I was doing.

Paul addresses this very thing in Colossians 3 beginning at verse 12. Because you are God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with heartfelt mercy, with kindness, humility, meekness and patience.

I've had to come to terms with the truth that I am the Lord's Beloved and Bride before I am my mother's daughter, a niece, a sister or mother of children. Therefore, the Lord is calling me to act as His disciple before any earthly office, and my heart must be His towards my family. This calls for exceptional self-control, and/or a healing of memories that are painful and profound forgiveness. You may be the only example of Christ's love in your family. How important then is it to set aside all grudges and painful memories of past misunderstandings and injuries.

The Scripture continues, Bear with one another; forgive whatever grievances you have against one another. Forgive as the Lord has forgiven you.

In addition to this, we are called to demonstrate our love by deferring to one another, showing respect and preference to their concerns. For instance, which home we will gather in, who will make the preparations? I can't count the number of times there was strife over who deserved to have Christmas at their house, Christmas at someone else's house - and how you don't want to leave out one set of relatives for the other - and so on. We can't possibly please everyone, but we can defer to some and give an example of generosity and love.

Over all these virtues put on love, which binds the rest together and makes them perfect.

Without this love, kindliness and meekness, even the finest preparations go sour when there is strife and insensitivity. We can pray against demonic strongholds in family members and make their demons wait outside the door while we enjoy sweet fellowship. Make 'em wait outside the door with our own demons! But Christ's peace must reign in your hearts - the Scripture goes on to say - since as members of the one body you have been called to that peace.

The next verse in the Scriptures was what hit me the hardest, and I have a favor to ask of you guys along with it. "Dedicate yourselves to thankfulness." Wow. That really struck me, because thankfulness is the first line of defense against demonic attacks mentally, emotionally. If you're in a state of praise, worship and thankfulness, it's very hard for them to penetrate with resentment, strife, bitterness. It just can't enter when you're in the sweet space of Thanksgiving!

The Lord's even teaching us to give thanks for those resentments and bitterness - things that CAUSE that. And that, in turn, will cause the demons to flee, because they cannot get a foothold in our hearts - they'll look for someone else to bug!

I've been finding that each morning when I come before the Lord to repent of anger, unforgiveness, selfishness and pride that I end thanking the Father for all He has done for us. It just pours out of me, I'm so grateful. During the day, when I am tempted to lose my patience, somehow I begin singing thank you songs!!! I know this is the Lord because my attitude quickly drifts to impatience and thank you is the furthest thing from my mind!

It continues, Let the word of Christ, rich as it is, dwell in you. In wisdom made perfect, instruct and admonish one another. Sing gratefully to God from your hearts in psalms, hymns, and inspired songs. Whatever you do, whether in speech or in action, do it in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Wow! Drive this car to the grocery store, in the name of the Lord Jesus, I won't be cutting people off - I'll be very, very deferring to the traffic around me.

And then the last part is, Give thanks to God the Father through Him. Wow! The really explains why I've been so riveted on the Father in the morning, thanking Him profusely for loving and caring for us.

And of course, this ring that He gave me reminds me of His tremendous kindness.

Knowing the stress that this season can generate, I'm going to ask a favor of you, Heartdwellers. Would you please post all your favorite thank you songs and we will put a "thank you, God" playlist together that you can add to your collection of songs so that you can stay in a place of thanksgiving when the waters get rough. I can't put the songs up, that would be dishonest, but I can at least list the artists and names of the songs. What first comes to my mind is Julie True's song Thank You. I find myself singing that when I get up in the morning. I have this terrible habit of singing with my mind and not singing with my vocal chords, which I have to change. But it's really a sweet, sweet song. Once I have collected all the thank you songs together, I will make a playlist in PDF format and we'll put it up on the Website where the other PDF's go.

Let's all sing gratefully to God from our hearts in psalms, hymns, and inspired songs, and stay free from the seeds of strife and bitterness these seasonal demons are out to incite us with, to steal our peace and joy.

YAHSHUA Gives All

 

Yeshua:  Child, there is much I say to you:

1. Do not fear. All I have been given, I give to you, let that truth sink in.

        So I began to pray and say, Holy Spirit, I really want that truth to sink in,    that all that Yeshua has been given, has been given to me. I spent about three days just really contemplating what Yeshua had spoken to me and then Holy Spirit led me to the Gospel of John, chapters 14 through 17.

So I want to share with you 14 things that Yahweh gave to Yeshua and He gave to me and He gave to you if you are a born-again Christian:

1. Revelation.

 We see that in John 15:15 "No longer do I call you servants for a servant does not know what his master's doing but I have called you friends for all things that I've heard from My Father, I have made  known to you."

So Yeshua gives revelation in these ways. He gives us revelation through His Word revealing things to our spirit as we pray in tongues, through dreams and vision, through words of knowledge and prophecy. He places His thoughts in our minds. He gives us strong impressions or gut feelings or if He should choose, He could even send an angel with His message.

  2. Provision and blessing

We see that in John 16:15 "All things that the Father has are mine. Therefore, I said that He will take of mine and declare it to you.

John 16:23 "And in that day, you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly I say unto you, whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you."

You see, we have rooms of blessings in heaven that Yeshua wants to release to us. And I have seen my room of blessings in heaven.

What are some of the reasons that we don't receive our blessings from heaven?

      a. all we don't ask our heavenly Father in the name of Yeshua. Scripture says we have not because we asked not.

     b. The enemy is stealing our blessings because we are not wearing the full armor of God,  the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of righteousness, the shield of faith, the belt of truth, our feet shown with the gospel of peace and the sword which is the Word of God.

    c. Another thing that stops our flow of blessings is known sin in our life.If we are continually sinning, it will stop the blessings of Yahweh.

   d. Sometimes our financial blessings can be stopped because we are not obeying the principle of tithing.

3. Glory

We see that in John 17:22 "And the glory which you gave Me, I have given them that they may be one as we are one."

You see we carry His Glory wherever we go.
Isaiah 62 "But the Lord will arise over you and His glory shall be seen upon you.

Sometimes when I am in the market place, I know that I am carrying His glory because I get different reactions from different people. People that are not born again and have a demonic spirit, they will glare at me sometimes. And sometimes when I'm in the marketplace, people will be drawn to me because they are born again and they can also see the glory of the Lord upon me.

So, how can we release His glory? We can do that in these ways: By reading the Word out loud,by worshipping Him,by praying and singing in tongues,

4. Yahweh gave Yeshua His Word

We see that in John 17:7-8 "now they have known that all things which you have given Me are from You for I have given to them the Words which You have given Me and they have received them and have known surely that I came forth from You and they have believed that You sent Me.

You see, Yeshua has given us His Word through Yahweh and it has been recorded in what we call the Bible. So, if you really want to spend some awesome time in the Word of God, go to the Gospels and read the red letters of Christ because as you contemplate on the Words of Christ, they are truly Yahweh's Words spoken through Him.

The scriptures I've been reading in the Gospel of John, they are all Christ's Words.

5. Eternal Life

We see that in John 17:2 6:21"You have given him authority over all flesh that he should give eternal life to as many as you have given Him.(Yeshua speaking to Yahweh at that time).

So, what is the best definition of eternal life?
Yeshua answered that in John 17"3 when He says this: "and this is eternal life that you may know the only true God and Jesus Christ whom You have sent."

So, you see, eternal life is knowing that Yahweh is the one true God. There is no other God but Him and knowing that Yeshua was sent from Yahweh. Knowing that and believing that in your heart, that is true eternal life. 

6. Yahweh has given Yeshua believers

We see that in John 17:6 "I have manifested Your name to the men whom You have given Me out of the world. They were yours and You gave them to Me and they have kept Your Word."

The hallmark of the true believer is keeping the Word of Yahweh. Yeshua was given true believers to follow while He was on this earth, and He was given the true believers as a gift from the Father. Also, what Yeshua has given to each other, to us, He has given us other believers. So often we think that we are a lone ranger or an island, but the Lord has given us other believers to come alongside of us to help us.

7. Yeshua was given the Holy Spirit also called the Spirit of Truth.

We see that in John 14:26, "but the helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you."

John 16:13 "However, when He the Spirit of Truth has come, He will guide you into all truth for He will speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak and He will of things to come. 

8. Love

John 14:21 "He has My commandments and keeps them. It is He who loves Me, will be loved by My Father and I will love Him and manifest Myself to Him."

The Father has given Yeshua His love and in turn Yeshua shown us His love by dying on the cross for our sins.

9. Greater works

John 14:10  "the Father who dwells in Me does the work"
John 14:12  "most assuredly I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I will do He will do also. And also greater works than these will he do because I go to My Father."

You see, Yahweh gave Yeshua great works to do while He was on this earth. But Yeshua says to us that we will do even greater works than what was He was given to do.

Yeshua spoke these words to me about the greater works, He said this: : It is recorded in scripture that I raised three people from the dead. You will raise more people from the dead. It is already happening through My disciples. Many blind eyes have been healed and continued to be healed. Limbs that have been  amputated are being restored, hearts that have stopped began beating again, infectious diseases are being stopped in their tracks, marriages are being restored, finances are being released, wars are being stopped even before they begin.

10. Mansions or rooms in heaven

In John 14:2-3 it says "in My Father's house are many mansions. If it were not so, I would have told you I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself that where I am there you may be also."

So when our work is complete on this earth and when we die, it says in scriptures that we will have mansions or rooms in heaven that are prepared for us.

11. Intimate knowledge of the Father

John 14:7 says "If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also. And from now on you know Him and have seen Him."

We have that intimate knowledge of the Father through our intimate knowledge of Yeshua because Yeshua says if you know Me, then you know My Father. If you've seen Me, then you have seen My Father

12. Peace

John 14:27 says "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you, not as the world gives I do not give to you. Let your heart not be troubled neither let it be afraid."

The peace that Yeshua gives us is a supernatural peace that transcends all understanding no matter what circumstances we go through and no matter whatever trial we are going through, we can have the supernatural peace of Yeshua.

13. Joy

John 15:11 says "These things I have spoken to you that My joy may remain in you and may it be full."

Have you ever known someone that was a joy robber, that every time that you're around them, they are complaining, they are always in a bad mood and they seem to strip you of your joy? No one wants to be around someone like that.

Yeshua has given us His joy and it's such a joy that no one can take it away from us no matter how hard they try.

14. Oneness with Yeshua and oneness with other believers.

We see that in John 17:11 "Now I am no longer with the world, but these are in the world and I have come to You holy Father. Keep through Your name those that You have given to Me that they may be one as we are one.

I want to conclude this message with full message of Yeshua that He gave me.

"Child, there is much I want to say to you. First, do not fear. All I have been given I give to you. Let that truth sink in. You will do greater works than I because I am with My Father. Stand in truth, I am truth. I love you My child, stay the course. The end is near. "

The Invitation to Overcome Temptation

                                                      ---

The  Invitation  To  Overcome  Temptation

November  11,  2015

Clare du Bois: The  blessing  and  peace  of  our  Lord  Jesus  is  with  us,  Heartdwellers.

JESUS: It  is  My  love  that  will  lead  you  to  repentance  and  abandoning  your  sins.    And  it  is  there  for  you  when  you  want  it.    I'm  not  your  father,  nor  your  pastor,  nor  your  wife  or  husband,  or  any  relative  that's  treated  you  with  disrespect,  contempt  and  harsh  legalisms.    I  am  your  loving  and  tender  God,  committed  to  helping  you  through  this  earthly  journey  and  into  My  arms  in  Heaven.

“You  cannot  do  it  alone,  you  must  have  My  Grace. You must  know  My  Love  before  you  can  Love  others.    You  say  you  love,  but  you  are  full  of  condemnation  of  others.    Why  is  that?   Because  you've  never  known  My  love,  because  those  who  were  to  love  you  as  I  do,  failed.    They  condemned  and  bullied  and  coerced  and manipulated  you  into  religion, because  they  didn't  know  My  Love  either.    They  have  caused  you  to  live  by  a  rulebook not by love.    What  does  My  Word  say  about  that?    "If  I have  the  gift  of  prophecy  and  can  fathom  all  mysteries  and  all  knowledge,  and  if  I  have  a  faith  that  can  move  mountains,  but  do  not  have  love,  I  am  nothing."    I  Cor. 13:2

 

“Come  to  Me.    I  am  calling  out  to  you. Please,  lay  down  your weapons  against  My  Body  and  embrace  Me  for  who  I  AM.    I  did not  come  into  the  world  to  condemn  the  world, but  to  save  it.   I  permitted  My  hands  and  feet  to  be  nailed  to  the  cross  to  present  a  picture  of  My  Love  for  you,  but  men  have  distorted  My  Love  into  a  cold-­‐hearted  religion  full  of  do's  and  don'ts.    

“I  only  have  one  ‘do’ and  one  ‘don't’: don't judge your  brother  and  love your  brother  as  I  have  loved  you.  But  if  you  still  do  not  know  My  Love, how  then  can  you  love  your  brother?    It  is  My  Love  that  is  calling  out  to  you,  and  it  is  My  Love  you  have  been  shutting  out  and  condemning.    Love  is  patient,  love  is  kind.  It  does  not  envy,  it  does  not  boast,  it  is  not  proud. It  does  not  dishonor  others,  it  is  not  self-­‐seeking.  I  Cor.  13:4-­‐5

“Consider  your  ways  children!  Consider  your  ways  and  the  fruits  of  your  lives.    Consider  those  things  you  are  terrified  others  will  find  out  about  you.    Consider  that  I  came  to  deliver  you  from  evil.  But  you  must  come  to  Me  unconditionally,  with  open arms  and  open  hearts  and  receive  My  unconditional  love  for  you.    Then  you  can  go  out  and  love  everyone, even  as  I  have  loved  you.

“I  DO  NOT  SAY  THIS  LIGHTLY.    YOUR  TIME  ON  THIS  EARTH  IS  COMING  TO  A  CLOSE.  THE  FINALS  ARE  TAKING  PLACE  NOW.  THE  ONLY  QUESTION  YOU  MUST  ANSWER  CORRECTLY  IS  SIMPLY, “DID  YOU  LEARN  HOW  TO  LOVE?"

Bible verses on marriage

1 Corinthians 7:1-40 Now concerning the matters about which you wrote: “It is good for a man not to have sexual relations with a woman.” But because of the temptation to sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife and each woman her own husband. The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband. For the wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. Likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does. Do not deprive one another, except perhaps by agreement for a limited time, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, so that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. ...

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Ephesians 5:22-33 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands. Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, ...

Genesis 2:24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

Proverbs 18:22  He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.

Hebrews 13:4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.

Ephesians 5:25-33 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, ...

Proverbs 21:9 It is better to live in a corner of the housetop than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.

How we Shut out our Blessings

“Blessed are those, who obey our Precious Savior, for the peace of the living God comes to the obedient.  These are the true peace keepers; for the gift of peace is given to the truly obedient, and this gift of peace is theirs to keep through the worst of times.  How blessed are the true peace keepers; for they are the obedient ones.” – Linda Newkirk

From  The Mountain Prophecies

Book 12, Chapter 82, CON’T

How we shut out our blessings

Oh, how we shut out our blessings by groaning and complaining, by making unreasonable demands, and by having an undue sense of entitlement. Remember how angry our Savior was with us in the wilderness? For, the people whined and they complained? They provoked the Lord, our God, with their complaining, whining, with their lack of gratitude and great selfishness. How they pitied themselves, even in the face of such great and wonderful miracles! (Deuteronomy 14) They thought that they were entitled to so much more! Even the great miracles of our Mighty God were not enough to please them!

An undue sense of entitlement

What is an undue sense of entitlement? An undue sense of entitlement is expecting things of others that we have no right to expect. 

These unmet expectations will then begin to eat away at one’s peace of mind and to create resentments within one’s heart and thoughts, thereby isolating one from loved ones, or causing burn-ups and blow-ups. For, the one, who feels wrongly entitled to something will have some sort of emotional melt-down when these irrational expectations are not met!  At the root of any undue sense of entitlement is one thing: SELFISHNESS.

SELFISHNESS BREEDS ISOLATION. SELFISHNESS BREEDS GREED. SELFISHNESS BREEDS AN UNDUE SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT. SELFISHNESS IS ALL CONSUMING. SELFISHNESS CUTS ONE OFF FROM OTHERS AS SELFISHNESS IS ALWAYS ALL ABOUT SELF. SELFISHNESS SHUTS OUT THE LIGHT OF GOD. SELFISHNESS ALIENATES ONE FROM THE LOVE OF OTHERS. SELFISHNESS ALIENATES ONE FROM THE LOVE OF GOD AS SELFISHNESS IS A BOTTOMLESS PIT, WHICH CAN NEVER BE FILLED.IN SELFISHNESS THERE IS NO LOVE. SELFISHNESS IS A BLACK EMOTIONAL HOLE.  SELFISNESS IS MANIPULATIVE AND CONTROLLING AND DOES NOT WISH TO BE SEEN FOR WHAT IT IS. UNDERSTAND? But, on the other hand…

Love is so precious!

Love thy neighbor as thyself

(Leviticus 19:18)

Most importantly, selfishness is the enemy of love; for my Dear Ones, love truly gives without expecting anything in return.  Love truly is kind. Love is full of true compassion and real concern for the welfare of others.  Love always wishes the highest good for others and is never controlling.  Loves gives and love heals.

Yet, at times, love may also be tough; for true love is the absolute flow of the purest light of God and it is true. Therefore, true love must also be true and must deal in truth, but even so, true love is absolutely forgiving; and when it forgives, it truly no longer remembers the wrongs.

True love covers an array of wrongs; for true love,  loves,  in spite of the faults and shortcoming of others.  True love looks past the sins and sees at a level, which is beyond this world; for true love is not based on anything of this world, but comes through us from the very source or all love, FROM THE HEART OF OUR LOVING SAVIOUR.

 BLESSED IS THE ONE, WHO TRULY LOVES OTHERS, WHO GIVES AND EXPECTS NOTHING. BLESSED IS THE ONE, WHO IS TRULY HIS BROTHER’S KEEPER, GIVING AND EXPECTING NOTHING.

BLESSED IS THE ONE, WHO WILL LAY DOWN HIS, OR HER LIFE, FOR HIS BROTHER OR SISTER, A SELFLESS LOVE, A LOVE, WHICH IS NOT  INTENT UPON SELF-PRESERVATION, BUT IN THE GIVING AND IN THE SUSTAINING OF LIFE.

YES, IN THE LOSING OF ONE’S LIFE IN SUCH LOVE, ONE WILL THEN FIND LIFE, EVEN LIFE ABUNDANT. 

Such terrible times are upon us all! Will you love your life unto death, fighting with guns and swords, or will you give your life totally to our Blessed Savior, loving Him above all, and loving others, even as you love yourself, that you might find your life, even life eternal?

“And the work of righteousness shall be peace;

And the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance forever!”

(Isaiah 32:17)

Blessed are those, who obey our Precious Savior, for the peace of the living God comes to the obedient.  These are the true peace keepers; for the gift of peace is given to the truly obedient, and this gift of peace is theirs to keep through the worst of times.  How blessed are the true peace keepers; for they are the obedient ones. 

Glory, glory, glory to the Lamb of God, forever and ever. Precious is the Holy Name of Jesus, the Name above all names.  He is worthy, worthy, worthy is the Lamb!

The Pure of Heart will see our Savior’s face

Are you ready to weep for your sins? Are you ready to plead with your whole heart for our Savior to heal your brokenness and to make you whole emotionally? Are you truly ready to forgive and to forget?  Are you ready to stop playing emotional barter games, which leave others tired and exhausted, who are shaking their heads and trying to figure out what the problem is? Are you ready to be brutally honest with yourself, really wanting to see the truths of all things, which are stored in your heart?

If you will not answer yes to all of these things and be extremely determined to overcome all of your hurts and sorrows and to have a clean heart, you will not overcome. And, if you do not overcome these negative things, which are stored in your heart and will not love and forgive others, regardless of what they have done to you, you will not have a clean heart.  The lack of forgiveness will surely grow a bitter root.

But, if you are extremely determined, you will overcome. Blessed are the overcomers; for their rewards are great in the Kingdom of our Savior.

And, blessed are the pure of heart, for they will see our Savior. The pure of heart forgive and understand the need for forgiveness. The pure of heart will enter into the kingdom of our God. Do not put off this most important of works!  Don’t let this work slide!  The Kingdom of our God is truly at hand!

“The Harvest of the First Fruits”

The harvest of first fruits (pure souls)   is  imminent. BE READY! Heed the advice of Sis Linda Newkirk which follows:

“The Harvest of the First Fruits”

My Dear Brothers and Sisters, I send you my heartfelt love on this beautiful, but cold day in December as the very first snow heads this way, with subsequent temperatures predicted to be in the tens and single digits.  Truly, the words of our Lord and God about a very cold and harsh winter are coming true right before our very eyes!

My Dear Ones, you need to know about the on-going stream of visions, which our Lord and God is giving me about the soon, very soon harvest of the pure souls!  Not only has He given me almost daily visions about this imminent harvest almost daily for the last two weeks, but He has also given me a very prophetic dream! In this dream, He showed me that Satan is fully cast down now!  In this ream, He also showed me the return of our Saviour in the East and alongside Him was a full moon.  I do not know for sure the meaning of this full moon, but our Lord and God knows.  However, as I saw in this dream, the return of our Saviour is veiled! It is hidden! It is cloaked; and very few will witness it or know about it at all.  These clean souls, who are taken, will just simply vanish, some as they work alongside others!

The harvest of these clean souls, the harvest of the first fruits, signals the beginning of the last three and one half years. Simultaneous with this harvest, I also expect to see something very terrible happen in this Earth, whether calamities in the Earth, or military attacks, or both.

This first harvest is just that, the first harvest. Read our Father in Heaven’s previous words in Book Twelve about this on-going harvest of the pure souls. He tells us that He will take others according to His good pleasure!

Dear Ones, times are about to get very bad in America and in the whole world. Live not for this world, but for your great and beautiful inheritance in the most beautiful world to come!  Love others and forgive them for everything!  As you do this, you will walk in such freedom! 

Get ready, my Dear Ones, and stay ready; for you truly do not know when our Lord and God comes for you!

I send love and big, big hugs to each you!

Jesus is our Most Beautiful Way home,

Your Sis, Linda

Go to Harvest for more. 

The Dog and the Father, Tearjerker

"Life is too short for drama or petty things, so laugh hard, love truly and forgive quickly. Live While You Are Alive. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time."{

A Father, a Daughter and a Dog- A true story by Catherine Moore

"Watch out! You nearly broad sided that car!" My father yelled at me. "Can't you do anything right?"

Those words hurt worse than blows. I turned my head toward the elderly man in the seat beside me, daring me to challenge him. A lump rose in my throat as I averted my eyes. I wasn't prepared for another battle.

I saw the car, Dad . Please don't yell at me when I'm driving.."

My voice was measured and steady, sounding far calmer than I really felt.

Dad glared at me, then turned away and settled back. At home I left Dad in front of the television and went outside to collect mythoughts..... dark, heavy clouds hung in the air with a promise of rain. The rumble of distant thunder seemed to echo my inner turmoil. What could I do about him?

Dad had been a lumberjack in Washington and Oregon . He had enjoyed being outdoors and had reveled in pitting his strength against the forces of nature. He had entered grueling lumberjack competitions, and had placed often. The shelves in his house were filled with trophies that attested to his prowess.

The years marched on relentlessly. The first time he couldn't lift a heavy log, he joked about it; but later that same day I saw him outside alone, straining to lift it.. He became irritable whenever anyone teased him about his advancing age, or when he couldn't do something he had done as a younger man.

Four days after his sixty-seventh birthday, he had a heart attack. An ambulance sped him to the hospital while a paramedic administered CPR to keep blood and oxygen flowing.

At the hospital, Dad was rushed into an operating room. He was lucky; he survived. But something inside Dad died. His zest for life was gone. He obstinately refused to follow doctor's orders. Suggestions and offers of help were turned aside with sarcasm and insults. The number of visitors thinned, then finally stopped altogether. Dad was left alone..

My husband, Dick, and I asked Dad to come live with us on our small farm. We hoped the fresh air and the rustic atmosphere would help him adjust.

Within a week after he moved in, I regretted the invitation. It seemed nothing was satisfactory. He criticized everything I did. I became frustrated and moody. Soon I was taking my pent-up anger out on Dick. We began to bicker and argue.

Alarmed, Dick sought out our pastor and explained the situation. The clergyman set up weekly counseling appointments for us. At the close of each session he prayed, asking God to soothe Dad's troubled mind.

But the months wore on and God was silent. Something had to be done and it was up to me to do it.

The next day I sat down with the phone book and methodically called each of the mental health clinics listed in the Yellow Pages. I explained my problem to each of the sympathetic voices that answered in vain.

Just when I was giving up hope, one of the voices suddenly exclaimed, "I just read something that might help you! Let me go get the article.."

I listened as she read. The article described a remarkable study done at a nursing home. All of the patients were under treatment for chronic depression. Yet their attitudes had proved dramatically when they were given responsibility for a dog..

I drove to the animal shelter that afternoon.. After I filled out aquestionnaire, a uniformed officer led me to the kennels The odor of disinfectant stung my nostrils as I moved down the row of pens Each contained five to seven dogs. Long-haired dogs, curly-haired dogs, black dogs, spotted dogs all jumped up, trying to reach me. I studied each one but rejected one after the other for various reasons too big, too small, too much hair. As I neared the last pen a dog in the shadows of the far corner struggled to his feet, walked to the front of the run and sat down. It was a pointer, one of the dog world's aristocrats. But this was a caricature of the breed.

Years had etched his face and muzzle with shades of gray. His hip bones jutted out in lopsided triangles. But it was his eyes that caught and held my attention. Calm and clear, they beheld me unwaveringly.

I pointed to the dog. "Can you tell me about him?" The officer looked, then shook his head in puzzlement. "He's a funny one. Appeared out of nowhere and sat in front of the gate. We brought him in, figuring someone would be right down to claim him. That was two weeks ago and we've heard nothing. His time is up tomorrow." He gestured helplessly.

As the words sank in I turned to the man in horror.. "You mean you're going to kill him?"

"Ma'am," he said gently, "that's our policy. We don't have room for every unclaimed dog."

I looked at the pointer again. The calm brown eyes awaited mydecision. "I'll take him," I said. I drove home with the dog on the front seat beside me.. When I reached the house I honked the horn twice. I was helping my prize out of the car when Dad shuffled onto the front porch... "Ta-da! Look what I got for you, Dad !" I said excitedly.

Dad looked, then wrinkled his face in disgust. "If I had wanted a dog I would have gotten one. And I would have picked out a better specimen than that bag of bones. Keep it! I don't want it" Dad waved his arm scornfully and turned back toward the house.

Anger rose inside me.. It squeezed together my throat muscles and pounded into my temples. "You'd better get used to him, Dad. He's staying!"

Dad ignored me.. "Did you hear me, Dad ?" I screamed. At those words Dad whirled angrily, his hands clenched at his sides, his eyes narrowed and blazing with hate. We stood glaring at each other like duelists, when suddenly the pointer pulled free from my grasp. He wobbled toward my dad and sat down in front of him. Then slowly, carefully, he raised his paw..

Dad's lower jaw trembled as he stared at the uplifted paw confusion replaced the anger in his eyes. The pointer waited patiently. Then Dad was on his knees hugging the animal.

It was the beginning of a warm and intimate friendship. Dad named the pointer Cheyenne . Together he and Cheyenne explored the community. They spent long hours walking down dusty lanes. They spent reflective moments on the banks of streams, angling for tasty trout. They even started to attend Sunday services together, Dad sitting in a pew and Cheyenne lying quietly at his feet.

Dad and Cheyenne were inseparable throughout the next three years. Dad's bitterness faded, and he and Cheyenne made many friends. Then late one night I was startled to feel Cheyenne 's cold nose burrowing through our bed covers. He had never before come into our bedroom at night.. I woke Dick, put on my robe and ran into my father's room. Dad lay in his bed, his face serene. But his spirit had left quietly sometime during the night.

Two days later my shock and grief deepened when I discovered Cheyenne lying dead beside Dad's bed. I wrapped his still form in the rag rug he had slept on. As Dick and I buried him near a favorite fishing hole, I silently thanked the dog for the help he had given me in restoring Dad's peace of mind.

The morning of Dad's funeral dawned overcast and dreary. This day looks like the way I feel, I thought, as I walked down the aisle to the pews reserved for family. I was surprised to see the many friends Dad and Cheyenne had made filling the church.. The pastor began his eulogy. It was a tribute to both Dad and the dog who had changed his life.

And then the pastor turned to Hebrews 13:2. "Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for by this some have entertained angels without knowing it."

"I've often thanked God for sending that angel," he said.

For me, the past dropped into place, completing a puzzle that I had not seen before: the sympathetic voice that had just read the right article... Cheyenne 's unexpected appearance at the animal shelter ....his calm acceptance and complete devotion to my father. . and the proximity of their deaths. And suddenly I understood. I knew that God had answered my prayers after all.

Life is too short for drama or petty things, so laugh hard, love truly and forgive quickly. Live While You Are Alive. Forgive now those who made you cry. You might not get a second time.

Do share this with someone. Lost time can never be found.

God answers our prayers in His time........not ours..
