Psa 91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; [but] it shall not come nigh thee.

Have I not said I would come to you in the early hours of the morning My Child - when you sought My face? Truly I AM a GOD that "KEEPS!" His word. My WORD is the same yesterday, today and forever!

You question My leading, but I say unto you I "HAVE!" gone before you and prepared a way for you. Though the world erupts in turmoil, keep your heart and your mind STAYED ON ME! I prepare those who you will meet along the way - and tell them of your coming; for you come not in your name - but IN MY NAME! I AM that I AM is sending you. I AM that I AM is bringing you forth.

Truly the enemy is roaming about seeking "WHOM" he may devour, but if you keep your eyes on ME, you have nothing to fear. FEAR NOT! I SAY…. FEAR NOT! For I will bring you through all of the struggles, all of the trials, all of the tests that lie ahead. Though a thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand - NONE will come nigh thee! Bring your focus unto MY PERFECTED WORK…. Bring your mind and your thoughts in line with MY WORD and you will move ahead on the "prepared path" quickly. Bend your will…. subject YOUR WILL to MY WILL! Lean not upon your own understanding in this day - for I AM is doing a "new thing!" A wonder to all who will STOP! gazing upon world events but LOOK at what I AM is doing in the midst of them. For though many have fallen and will fall - they are not lost to Me. Are not even the hairs upon your head numbered? Do I not know when a sparrow falls? Those who have fallen are not lost…. Nor forgotten by your God. Their families grieve but those who have been "lost to them" ARE with Me in paradise. If those who grieve will look unto Me - I will surround them and comfort and walk with them THROUGH the "Valley of the Shadow of Death." I will apply the Balm of Gilead to their hearts---I will uphold them and sustain them - bring them the OIL OF GLADNESS to replace what the enemy has taken from them. He is defeated - but they SHALL ARISE VICTORIOUS!

They ask and wonder - "HOW could GOD allow this to happen?" So many questions, so many fears, so many looking at the problem, instead of looking to "THE SOLUTION!" Where sin reigns, death reigns. Loss happens when the enemy has found a foothold and entered in. Those who commit such atrocities have "sin" residing within them, and love not their enemies…. But seek to bring death and destruction in the name of a "cause," for reasons they, themselves, do not even understand. But "sin" brought forth Ishmael! Unbelief was at the "root" of his conception. Yet, I "blessed" him and made of him a great nation - a great people, but a people who today claim to know ME, yet deny who I AM! How can ANY understand ME unless they are willing to come before Me and sup with me, REST in My Presence? How can they DENY MY SON-SHIP, but acknowledge that the power of MY NAME is such that they refuse to allow MY TRUE WORD entrance within their borders? How?? Because deep within themselves they RECOGNIZE that I AM that I AM, but they - as the Pharisees, would have to turn from their own self-righteousness and become humble before me. They are a people whose greatness has been lost by their own willful disobedience to "MY ways…." The enemy has so blinded my latter-day Ishmael's that they have "holy wars," and claim it is of ME! There will be wars, and rumors of war - but does it say that "I" have initiated them? NO! For I said: THOSE WHO PICK UP THE SWORD - WILL DIE BY THE SWORD… My ways are gentle and humble. I say unto you that "BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS! For "THEY" shall be called the "SONS OF GOD!" WOE!! WOE!! Unto those who "pick up their swords…" and claim it is of ME! Woe!! Woe!! To those who blindly follow the promptings of others and refuse to acknowledge the conscious that I AM PLACED WITHIN THEM that speaks of "doing good" and NOT "doing evil!"

Follow your heart - listen to your conscious! Don't be blinded by others into thinking that the war you call for - is holy unto the LIVING "HOLY" GOD! Sin begets sin…violence begets violence! Let he would breaks the peace KNOW that I watch over "MY CHOSEN PEOPLE" - the apples of My Eye and he who would "touch or harm" my little ones will answer to "THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, ISSAC AND JACOB!" Truly many have hearts blackened with malice and envy, greed and covet what their neighbor has. Truly, many call forth "FIRE FROM HEAVEN" but the "FIRE" they bring forth is a fire of rhetoric that besmirches the GOD - they "SAY" they serve! NONE who do such things have "ANY!" part of ME… nor do I recognize them, nor do I overlook their evil deeds. They follow one who was full of pride in "his" accomplishments, "full of deceit and malice" towards those who refused to follow him. He sought to build an empire - with himself at its "head." BUT I AM THE HEAD! Nimrod would build a tower - a tower that reached to the very heavens. He failed - for he failed to take into account that "I AM" the "GOD OF THE HEAVENS…" and so will others fail who presume to "REACH UNTO THE HEAVENS" and build their own "towers!" I AM YOUR HIGH TOWER… none other. You can ONLY come to the Father - "THROUGH ME!" There is NO OTHER NAME that will save… there is NO OTHER WAY to "REACH" into the Heavens!

Bring before ME "fruits" of repentance! Show ME that you are willing to forgo the enemies lies - and turn from your wicked ways. Fast and cry out to ME - and I WILL HEAR YOU! I will "reach down" from the Heavens and touch you - and fill you with MYSELF…and THEN! Will you understand that the god that you served was NOT the GOD OF THE HEAVENS, YOUR CREATOR, but the god of this world.
