JUST KEEP GOING







 
 
A couple of days ago I was thinking about a friend who I haven’t seen in a few months. As soon as she came to my mind I felt that the Lord had a word for her to “Just Keep Going”. I didn’t know what was happening in her personal life. I texted her and she replied saying that she was going through the most difficult time of her life. I was devastated when I heard what she had to say. She has been through horrendous battles in the past few years just as I have. We are both warriors and I know that we will come out victorious in the months ahead.

For those of you who are also going through tough battles I want to encourage you to “Just keep going”. In the book of John chapter six, Jesus fed five thousand people by supernaturally multiplying five loaves of bread and two small fish. When his disciples were in a boat, he walked to them on the water after they had been rowing awhile. As soon as he got into the boat they were “instantly” on the other side. They had seen all these miracles but when he spoke about eating his flesh and drinking his blood, the religious crowds became furious. Many of his own disciples left him saying: “this is a hard teaching, who could understand it”? But then he turned to his twelve disciples and asked them: “Do you want to leave also?” Simon Peter answered “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 

Some of you have also thought about walking away from the Lord but then you remembered that He is your creator and there is nothing to turn back to. No matter what battle you are facing, just keep going no matter how difficult things get. Then the Lord showed me a scripture in Psalms 89. The Lord was speaking to David and he is speaking the same thing over you. He has anointed you with His holy oil. You shall be established in his hand. His arm will strengthen you. The enemy will not outwit you, nor the son of wickedness afflict you. He will beat down your foes before your face, and plague those who hate you. His faithfulness and His mercy will be with you and in His name your horn shall be exalted. (Psalm 89:20-24)

Psalms 89:20-24
I have found My servant David; With My holy oil I have anointed him, With whom My hand shall be established; Also My arm shall strengthen him. The enemy shall not outwit him, Nor the son of wickedness afflict him. I will beat down his foes before his face, and plague those who hate him. “But My faithfulness and My mercy shall be with him, and in My name his horn shall be exalted.

Psalm 144:1
"Blessed be the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle."

John 6:66-69
From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more.Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

Walking In Demonstration of the Spirit and of Power

   October 16, 2014 Walking In Demonstration of the Spirit and of Power In the First book of Corinthians Chapter two, Paul told the Corinthian church that he did not come with eloquence of speech or carnal persuasiveness, but with the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. Paul did not speak mere words of man, but he ministered in demonstration with miracles, signs and wonders following. When Paul prayed for people they were healed, set free, delivered, and even the dead were raised. He told the people that their faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God. The Lord says; This is a new day. You are the generation who will walk in authority, power and demonstration of My kingdom. I am releasing My glory on this earth as it is in heaven. You have been created as conduits to be used in miracles, signs and wonders. I am looking for those who will speak to the mountains, rather than encircle the mountains repeatedly. I am lookin...

"HE MAKES HIS MINISTERS FLAMES OF FIRE"

Image
June 10, 2016 "HE MAKES HIS MINISTERS FLAMES OF FIRE" The Holy Spirit showed me a campfire that had died out but underneath, the embers were still red hot.  The embers radiated heat long after the fire was out and could easily ignite again if they were stoked, poked or if the wind blew upon them.  The embers were smoldering which means that they were still burning, yet without a flame. The Lord gave me this analogy from Leviticus 9:23-24 of how God supernaturally sent fire on the altar for the burnt offerings.  Although the fire was kindled by God Himself, the priests had to continually keep it from ever dying out.  This required a regular removal of the ashes and anything which would prevent the fire from burning. Jesus is rekindling the fires that have gone out of His people so that we will become a flame of fire for His glory. The Lord says I am igniting the lives of My people once again to go out into all the world an...

“The Desert Places and The Resting Places Encounter – January 16, 2019”

Image
                          As I lay down to rest, the Lord came and invited me to follow him. In the vision, I get up and follow him and find myself walking in a vast hot desert. All around us are sand dunes as far as I could see. The wind was hot and was blowing sand on us as we went. My feet were struggling to keep up with the Lord as He purposefully trudged forwards to His destination. I pressed harder in the soft sand and said, “Lord, where are we going?” The Lord just kept walking. After awhile, the Lord slowed down and I saw that we came to a place where there was an old well in a cleft among the dunes. It was ancient, well used, and it had old dry clay built up all around the sides. There was an old clay jar laying by the well that still had an old rope tied to it.   The Lord leaned against the edge of the well and asked me if I wanted a drink. I was amazed that He asked su...
