Loving Lions in Heaven & (Your Hearts Desires)

   
                                      

The Lord is so close to us, Heartdwellers, and so solicitous for our care and taking care of us and preparing our hearts.

 Most people don't realize what the enemy is doing when they have a real fascination and affection for something, be it a hobby, animals, people, whatever. It brings them comfort to engage themselves with it. But there comes a time when it is no longer healthy but an escape from reality.

"This is why I have warned you all that temptations are being prepared for you. If the enemy can get you off what is important, then opportunities I give you for souls will go by without you taking advantage of them and bringing them to the Me, giving them comfort, and a word that could turn their hearts towards Me."

You know, guys, just as an aside. I remember now. I've been one of these people ... You know? Probably everyone has a side like this, where I'd get fascinated with something and I'd just dive into it, whole hog, headfirst. And REALLY get off on a tangent. I'd just take it and go and RUN with it! Then I'd get tired of it, and I'd wonder, 'What in the world was I so taken up with about that??' And I'd realize, wow. That was a sidetrack, that was pulling me away from something else I should have been doing. For a while I thought music was going to be something like that, so I was very, very careful, along with Ezekiel, to discern whether I was supposed to be sitting and writing music. Because I didn't want it to be another thing that just drew me off and I was sidetracked direction, wasted time. So, I can see what the Lord is saying, you know. There's a tendency to find comfort in things outside of the Lord.

The Lord continued and He said, "Suffice it to say, My Bride, if you deny yourself now, I promise that in Heaven, soon enough, you will have all you ever dreamt of or wanted. Instantaneously! And it will never be taken from you. I know you have seen your Collie in Heaven and she is waiting for you, in fact, very impatiently!"

Yes, I had seen her behind Jesus and to His right barking and jumping from right to left. Obviously excited to see me!

He continued, "Oh, the wonders of My Creation...they abound like nothing you've ever experienced and they are yours to enjoy forever. So, My Brides, if you deny yourself just a little bit longer, you will all have your dreams come true when I bring you to the place I've prepared very individually, very especially, just for each of you.

"Is it too much to ask for you to wait just a little while? Oh, that sacrifice is so pleasing to Me. I'm not saying there will be no more comfort from creatures. I'm just advising you not to allow the enemy to use compulsion to distract you away from each of your missions.

"I have marvellous heart-warming surprises laid up for all of you...and they are just as eager to see you as you are to see them."

And after the Lord said that, a Scripture was quickened to me:

Romans 8:22-23 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the first-fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption to sonship, the redemption of our bodies.

The Lord bless you all. We truly have some wonderful things to look forward to!

February...A Month of Testings

                                        

Clare du Bois:  May the Lord bless us all with wisdom and peace, Heartdwellers.

JESUS:  "This next month is very, very key and important for those you are leading. They need to be appraised of the situation. The devils suspect this will be their last opportunity to drag souls down into Hell, so much more than ordinary vigilance is necessary to preserve your souls.

"They are going to come after you from all directions. Temptations you never even thought you were vulnerable to. My advice to you all is lay low, low, low - lower than ever before in your lives. Don't have any proud flags flying they can attach themselves to and they'll go right by you. They are looking to stir up pride in your hearts any way they can do it. Refuse to buy into that. Simply dodge the bullets. Your vigilance will save your soul and perhaps even those around you. When the devils target you, they also target those around you. They rejoice when they can use you to bring others down as well.

"Don't allow yourselves to be drawn off into vain reasonings, empty arguments, critical spirits. Oh, they have set landmines before you, My people. Your only hope is to lay low in humility, confessing My Blood for protection and refusing, and I do mean flat-out refusing, to be engaged in useless arguments that will cause your soul to fall into unrest and confusion.

"Little do they know, or expect, that I will strengthen you in humility, your greatest protection. As you remain vigilant and obedient, they will have no place to manifest.

"This is a critical time for all of you. As you move through this month, be expecting grenades to fly in your face. When they do, catch them before they detonate and steal your peace."

"You're nesting. Please, be at peace. You are aware of what's going on, that is enough. To focus on yourself would not do anyone any good. Better you should just look forward to opportunities to prove your love for Me. Better for you to move on now, Clare."

How do I do that, Lord, when my heart is so heavy?



"Refocus on Me, Beloved."

I'm still Your Beloved?

"Still, always and forever. Did I not tell you that I chose you for this job because you were such a poor soul? Did I not tell you that I looked and could find no one else to match you in pity? It is always the ones who think they are something, when they are nothing, that are truly to be pitied. Reality is a rough landing. Better that you figure that out now rather than at the very end of your life.

"I looked to you, Clare, because I knew your weaknesses so very well. And yet your heart is for Me - so life is a struggle for you. I knew your struggles are the same as other's and helping you gain the victory would help them as well. You are perfect for this job, especially if you remain teachable and steal a glance at yourself now and again in My Mirror.

"There's no need to nest..."

Lord, I am so afraid of failing You.

And I began to cry at that point. I know my weakness, guys. My weaknessES. They're bad...

He replied, "I know. I know. But you have Me on your side. You have Me and My graces and as long as you take hold of that rope of grace and never let it go, you will make it. It has to become second nature to you, My Love. Every day you are presented with opportunities to go with grace - or go with the flesh. Little things mean a lot. Your love for Me is the cornerstone. All the things you give up for Me - and especially charity - are the building blocks. You are given opportunities almost every moment of your life. The more frequently you choose Me, the stronger you will get. It's just that simple.

"The blocks of granite are My grace, self-denial, charity, humility. The blocks of adobe are your flesh, your desires, appetites, preferences; things that ultimately mean nothing and do not hold up under pressure. Building with those causes massive instability. Always choose the granite, My Love. It will stand in eternity. The others will crumble back into the Earth they were made from.

"Go now, My Love, knowing you are forgiven and restored. Cleave to Me and show Me how much you care."

Lukewarm...Little Foxes Spoil the Vine

                                                             

Clare du Bois:  May the sweet presence of our Lord Jesus be with you, Heartdwellers.

Jesus:   "It's the little foxes that spoil the vine, My Love." Jesus began. "The little things you do that you know you shouldn't do. They are proofs of self-love and lukewarmness towards Me, you know?"

"You know how it feels when you knick your finger and it bleeds. It takes a few days to heal, especially if it's on a knuckle. In the meantime, it hurts. It makes your whole hand hurt. Even though it's not life threatening, it mars your body's performance. And it's a distraction.

"Same way in relationships. Little indifferences hurt. When they accumulate they do damage, and that damage has to be repaired. You've been given so many graces, Clare. There really is no excuse for you taking liberties that injure our relationship. Although you do have a very real enemy egging you on into these things, still you can say, 'NO!' when these little indiscretions are proposed to you.

"It's not like you're under a strong physical or chemical compulsion. It's more like 'I want that.' You could deny yourself as a sign of your love for Me. I honor each time you do that. So, you see indifference leads to lukewarmness...and you have it in your power not to allow that."

So, Lord - how do I get out of this?

"Deny yourself more, go deeper. Eventually you'll have a breakthrough and a restoration of My Sweet presence. Show Me that you care, Beloved. I know you've made serious life choices to honor Me. But understand: it is the little foxes that spoil even the finest of vines. The higher you go, the longer down the fall, the more damage that is done to yourself, to Me and to others."

Stupid flesh, it seems like I am forever fighting it.

"When you make the decision to renounce yourself, in total, then the walk will be easier. It's the little allowances you make for the flesh that are not strong compulsions, that are so damaging. For the compulsions, I give grace as well. I understand when your body needs something like chocolate. I give you slack at those times, because you are simply too weak.

"How marvelous it would be if you weren't that weak. But I use it to help with humility. Now, I know how badly you feel, but you are not out of the woods yet. Not until you totally renounce yourself. And I might add, even when you've done that, you can still fall.

"Much is tied up in humility, My Love. You need to practice mindful humility. In other words, take every thought captive, lift up others deliberately and abase yourself. Then abstinence will become easier. The lowlier you become, the more protection and grace I will impart to you.

"You have been catching yourself in pride lately. That's always a sign that a downgrade is on the way, so to speak. Littleness, littleness, littleness. The littler the better. You should have experienced My mother's littleness. It's not like anything known on Earth, it is so far from what you call humility now. If anyone could have been any tinier in My eyes, I would have chosen them.

"It was truly her knowledge of the Father that caused her to abase herself. She saw herself much as I see her. Very, very, very little, insignificant and void of every merit. She attributed every good thing to the Father and kept nothing for herself. She saw all others as more virtuous than herself and not for one moment did she dare to look up and pass judgement. She was steeped in charity and compassion.

"All of you, My Brides, could have learned from her example. But you have My example of continual brokenness, humility, charity and understanding. Although I could have passed judgment on the harlot, I chose not to. You see? That's the Father's job.

"Go now, My love, and get some rest. we will begin anew tomorrow."

Lord, I'm willing to be made willing. I just hope You don't have to use a crowbar to straighten me out.

"My Love, I always choose the most gentle way to guide you into holiness."

You Will Experience Ecstatic Freedom

                                             



Yes, the reality of what is to take over the world is too much for human understanding - even by those who planned it. Once begun, it will have a life of its own and soon be out of their control. They cannot see that now. And when it happens, it will be too late. But you see, I am allowing it. Nothing is beyond My control.

"There will be terror on all sides. That is why I am taking so much time to prepare all of you. You cannot even begin to understand what will be transpiring around you and around the world. But you have been prepared to stand strong. Yet, some will crumble under the pressures. I will meet them there with My mercy. You cannot begin to understand the enormity of the changes this Earth will go through.

"You saw Me with a transit, marking out boundaries."

Yes, Lord. I did. (That was the other night when I was falling asleep. Ezekiel had seen me out on the polar ice cap with the Lord. He was marking out boundaries and I was helping Him.)

He continued, "Well, that area will no longer be at the North Pole. Rather, more at your latitude. So many surprises. But that doesn't matter now. What I'm more concerned about is the readiness of My people and My Bride. I want them to understand that the body matters not. Rather, it is the spirit-man, the being who is their identity and lives on. I don't want them to be terrified along with the rest of the population, but to be very cognizant that their time in eternity has arrived at last. Soon, they will be free to live on with Me. No longer encumbered by earthly limitations.

"There needs to be a point of recognition, a fail-safe, a realization that this is NOT their end - but only their beginning. Once this is established in their hearts, nothing will terrify them. I need you to turn over your fears to Me, My people. I need you to trust Me as never before. I have prepared you. I have told you what will be. I have promised I will be with you, and you will be with Me.

"You will experience ecstatic freedom in that moment. I want you to remember and trust that. My words are true, My promises are sure. Neither is there anything I have said that I won't deliver on, that I will not bring to pass.

"When terror falls upon the Earth, you will stand tall and strong, for your redemption has at long last arrived. You will have nothing to fear. This will be a sign to all that I have set My people aside. I have prepared them. I am with them. When the rest of the world goes into shock, you will have peace. This is My guarantee to you.

My angels are stationed even now in preparation for that hour, but you all must be mindful that I am indeed living within you and beside you. Psalm 91 must resonate with every beat of your hearts."
And what I just wanted to say here is, for the most part the Lord is going to rescue His Bride off the Earth, but some of us are going to get caught in the midst of whatever happens. And what He's telling us here is not to be afraid in that hour. That's our freedom, that's our ticket to Heaven. He'll take care of us, and I believe even having us leave our bodies before we feel ANYTHING - we'll indeed be with the Lord.

So, I felt led to go ahead and write down Psalm 91 in such a way that we could relate to it, one on one:

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, "You are my refuge and my fortress. My God, in Whom I trust. Surely You will save me from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence. You will cover me with Your feathers, and under Your wings I will find refuge. Your faithfulness will be my shield and rampart. I will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day. Nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness. Nor the plague that destroys at mid-day.
"A thousand may fall at my side, ten thousand at my right hand, but it will not come near me. I will only observe with my eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. If I say, 'Lord, You are my Refuge and I make You, the Most High, my dwelling - no harm will overtake me. No disaster will come near my tent."
For You will command Your angels concerning me, to guard me in all my ways. They will lift me up in their hands, so that I will not strike my foot against a stone. I will tread on the lion and the cobra. I will trample the great lion and the serpent.

"Because You love Me," says the Lord. "I will rescue you. I will protect you, for you acknowledge My Name. You will call upon Me and I will answer you. I will be with you in trouble. I will deliver you and honor you. And with a long life I will satisfy you and show you My Salvation."

And the Lord continued after that, "And here I would say, with eternity I would satisfy you, and show you the glorious wonders of My Kingdom. Your eternal reward that I have stored up for you. Joys forevermore at My right hand. Be at peace, My people, My Bride. When terror strikes, grasp My hand all the more firmly. Settle into My wings. At last, you are free! In that moment, you will experience ecstatic freedom! Remember this."

War Drums Are Beating in Heaven

                                                 
"War drums are beating in Heaven."

In Heaven?

"Oh yes, they beat, for My Father's Heart is sickened by what the enemy has done to His people and creation. He is sick of the suffering of the innocent and is preparing an end for the wicked. This is every bit as much a spiritual battle as it will be in the physical."

 "There will be rescues, spectacular supernatural rescues because of your prayers, My Brides. Yes, judgment must come to Earth, but My Heart is soft for My Bride and I have hearkened to her prayers for her families. I wish for you all to be at peace that I am faithful and have noted down all of your tears for your families. Angels are already assigned. So much mercy will be granted the loved ones of My Bride, because she of all people has been hardest hit with family members. She's been targeted and while free will still has the last say, I know how to move on the hearts of men. Is it not written, "The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turns it wherever he will." Proverbs 21:1 "That stands for those who are dear to you, also."

Thank you, Lord, I know so many will be relieved to hear that.

"There is nothing easy about what is yet to come, but I do not want the hearts of My Loved ones distracted by the fate of family members. Remember that I love them more than you ever possibly could and I never give up, even on the hardest hearts. You may take solace in the fact that the Rapture will jar many into the reality they've been avoiding.

"There is preparation in the hearts of your loved ones that I have done. You cannot see or hear it, but I have laid a foundation of sorts so that when confirming events happen, the hard shell will indeed be broken and they will give their lives to Me with much remorse. One of the greatest things you can do to prepare them is to be exceptionally loving and forgiving. That carries a sweetness that is the key to anyone's heart. The worst thing you can do is to preach condemnation and Hell.

"You would be surprised how many already know they are headed towards Hell, but simply can't bring themselves to the point where they are willing to change. The Rapture will change that. It will be solid proof that I exist. Hell is real, just as real as you were, only moments before when I removed you from earth.

'The harder part for Me, Clare, is the lives that will be lost during the catastrophes and wars. Lives of souls that never repented, never cared about anything but the body's needs and never had time for Me. As you were musing while I was speaking to you and you didn't know it, all soldiers are inoculated with a chip that affects the way they think. Not only does the culture in the armed forces shape a man, there also is now a chip that affects their sensibilities about Me and about love."

"There are exceptions to the rule, but the fact is, it is much harder for them to get in touch with the more delicate and spiritual feelings. Don't you know...I don't leave them on their own, but override this device. Nonetheless, it has an impact. There is no soul I abandon to the deceits of the governments, not one. I find a way to touch them, I find a way to bring My light into the darkness of their minds. Those who read the Scriptures daily are strengthened and cleansed, just like everyone else."

I thought to myself when He said that, 'I wonder why You are telling you these things, Lord?'

And He said, "Why am I telling you these things? Because they weigh heavily on My heart, Beloved. I share them with you because you are My Spouse and I want you to understand some of what I must deal with each day.

"Wars are being waged in the heavenliness right now to bring souls to Me at this last hour. Much that is taking place in migration has shaken the very foundations of life and caused them to cry out to Me more than ever. I am touching them with My love, they are clinging to Me as never before and there is a harvest to be had in their camps. All of this is part of My plan to use the evil the enemy has planned, to do good and bring the lost home to Me.

"Keep your focus, My Brides, keep your hearts solely for Me, that our reunion may be a Joyful one."

"I'm Not a Mannequin" (Focus in prayer and worship)

                                          

Clare du Bois:  The presence of the Lord enwrap you like a warm blanket, dear Heartdwellers!

JESUS:  "Heaven is in your eyes, on your lips, in your heart. Commune with Heaven, My beloved. Commune with Me there, tap into the living waters flowing forth from the Father's throne and pouring into your heart for souls. This is where the anointing flows from, the very wellsprings of life; our life now and forever. When you tap into these you are granted insight into the Heart of Your God, insights to share with a broken world which is confused beyond measure.

I wish for My Bride now to keep her eye on the Heavens, knowing and expecting Me to come any time. I expect her to be expecting Me. I expect her to spend substantial times making ready for the hour of her visitation.

"Yes, Satan will try to counterfeit it, but I will not allow it for the pure of heart.

"So much attention is paid to so many words, when all I desire is the attention to be put on Me and Me alone.

Resist Gossip & Judgment, Nations of the World Deteriorating

                                         

The Lord be with you, Dear Family.

The Lord began: "I love the way you have tuned yourselves into My messages, Heartdwellers. I am so pleased with your focus and obedience. Know that in this last few weeks there will be many, many attempts to throw you off.

"The enemy is plotting waves of discouragement and distraction. Discouragement comes first, leading you into seeking distractions. Do not fall for his ploys, rather stay secure in what I've given you - not only your prayer times but the messages also. Keep your focus like the captain of a great ship on the ocean. One degree off can result in the wrong destination.

"All of you are great ships, loaded with treasure, spices, gold and silver, perfumes and precious stones from afar. All of you are also targeted by the pirates of wickedness wanting to steal from you the treasures I have imparted. Therefore you must stay the course and be vigilant.

"There will be more attempts to discredit this channel and cause you to abandon the vessels who have served you with all their hearts. Continue to honor, protect and support them, knowing that they are vulnerable just like the rest of you and the devils want to despoil them as well. You have been taught well to refuse to get involved in quarrels and useless arguments. Even just one step...one sentence into gossip is dangerous to your souls. Please, continue to avoid all forms of gossip and deprecation of My ministers. Not only Clare, Ezekiel and Carol, but other faithful servants who have been preparing you for this time.

"The enemy's bottom line is divide and conquer. Cause disputes and controversies provoking others to take sides so that ultimately the nourishment I have given you and continue to give you, can be taken away from you. Know that this is in the wind, the enemy is planning assaults against you and other faithful vessels unto honor. Blessed is that servant who hears and obeys. Please, no matter how tempting, do not decry other ministers or people who attack this channel. Rather pray for them and I will remove the weapons from their hands and make them no longer effective.

"Your greatest safety is in holiness and refusing to judge others. Many have many opinions, and unfortunately much of what is proposed is opinion and not from Me. So remember your tools of discernment and if you are caused to lose your peace be wary; this is the enemy's number one form of attack. To continue to listen to those who detract from others is truly a leak in your vessel. The graces pour through that leak and are lost because of this serious fault. Judgement is Mine and your safest stance is to avoid these poisons and cleave to what is righteous and good, even showing mercy to your enemies - but not taking in their poison.

"My Brides, you are stunningly beautiful and the enemy hates the very mention of you. That is why he is waging war on this channel. He cannot stand to see the beauty of brotherly love, patience and caring for one another. He hates you for it. On other channels, he has succeeded in causing division, strife and calumny, but here he is a miserable failure; that is why you are being targeted. Your vigilance and obedience will keep you in My Peace.

"Things continue to fester and advance behind the scenes like a well-oiled machine. Evil is taking ground quickly around the world. You will see the fall of every great nation as the Trojan horse of migration continues to penetrate the governments of Europe. Do you understand? This is deliberate, this is planned, this is succeeding. What you are witnessing in the world right now is the destruction of national sovereignty around the world. The leading nations must fall for the one world government to be established. The stage is being set for Anti-Christ to come forward and rule the entire world, destroying all cultures and governments so that one law, one faith and one nation can be inaugurated.

"It will never succeed of course, for any length of time, but this is the plan as well as the destruction of the poor on this planet. Yes, the poor, the lame, the elderly are targeted for destruction. Those who will not support this worldwide regime are also targeted. The individual will be crushed and those who have been prepared to rule will come into power.

"I will come and restore national sovereignty and the faith of the nations will acknowledge Me as their savior and ruler. We will enjoy unprecedented peace for as long as the enemy is kept at bay. You will learn the ways of laughter and joy, especially in those places that have been most heavily oppressed and deprived.

"All will enjoy an equitable standard of living and justice will reign. Keep your eyes on this goal, My Beloved ones. And for you who are reading this after the Rapture, keep it in mind: joy is coming after this long trial, joy and true prosperity of spirit and life is coming. Do not despair, for at the darkest hour I will come and restore righteousness to this Earth. In the meantime, cleave to Me, learn and follow My ways alone. Man's ways are futile and only lead to death. This world is now living the results of man's ways. That is why I entreat you to follow My ways no matter what the cost.

"I will amply reward you at the right time. Injustice and corruption will not reign over you forever. I will establish My Kingdom and you will live in peace, joy and prosperity of soul. So, do not give in to depression. Rather, stand your ground, knowing the final outcome: the Victory is OURS.

"Seek Me until you find Me. Rely on My instruction and it will go well with you. Have no fear of those who can kill the body; rather fear the One who can assign you to eternal torment where the worm never dies, the fire never goes out and cries of agony are heard down the corridors for eternity.

"This place is a last resort for the lawless ones, not for you. It is a place of torment for evil spirits, not My glorious Creation: man, who is made in Our image. So, do not allow the enemy to steal from you your citizenship in Heaven. Cleave to Me no matter what the cost and you shall find rest for your souls."
