Admonition For The Weary

Sep 12, 2003

Come unto Me all who are weary and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest, for I AM gentle in nature, and My yoke is light and My burden is easy to bear. Cast off all that has been sent from the evil one to weigh you down. Be wise as serpents and gentle as doves, that is full of grace and truth. and have keen discernment in all things for the enemy is coming in as a flood in ways you least suspect.

You need to be watchful at all times, because when you let your guard down, he moves in to try to steal, kill and destroy your joy and the anointing you have upon your life. For the enemy is always watchful and waiting for that slip up, that chink in the armor, that careless move. Be on guard at all times for yes, you are in a war zone, and there is constant battle going on around you that involves you and your loved ones.

Be sure that I have angels round about watching out for your safe keeping, but you have to live at all times covered with the power of the blood of the Lamb and seeking to walk in the perfect will of the Lord at all times. Be consistently watching and praying that you will stay fit for the battle, a watchman at all times. For this is the time and the hour where I will pour out My power with abundance of signs and wonders to draw in the lost and to restore those are backslidden. For I will move through you in the market place, as you visit with your families, as you live side by side with your neighbors in every day life.

For I will use you mightily, but you must be ready. You need to be covered with your armor at all times and alert to the tactics to divide you from the Body and to diminish your credibility as one who I will move through to bless the Body. For the enemy wants to bombard you at every move, and he wants to sidetrack you from your highest calling which is to minister to Me with your worship and your praise. He wants to distract you so that you will not be nurtured and strengthened by My fresh manna and meat coming forth through the minister of My word. Please be aware. Do not be careless of his tactics to separate you from others I have called to lift you up and support you in your faith and vision I have given you to press in for.

Resist the devil and he will flee. Repent of your carelessness. Pick up the pieces and go on for you are not broken to the point of no repair. Humble yourself before Me, and I will lift you up and restore you. For even your mistakes work for your good if you remain humble and teachable. For this is the day of salvation, for repentance, for restoration. Lift up the hands that hang down. Raise your head high for you are children of the King.

You are mighty warriors. Today is a new day for the old is passed away. New mercies await you daily. Cheer up for the best is yet to come. The enemy is under your feet. And you will stand and make it to the end victoriously because I say so. A mighty conqueror you, are and you will take the land. You will thrive, you will soar, you will overcome by the blood of the Lamb, the word of your testimony if you love not your life unto death.

If I AM for you, who can ever come against you and overcome you? Resume your position and move in on the enemy. Be aggressive with head set like flint. Move in and take the land and do not leave the spoils. Reap all the fruit of the land. Fear not for I AM with you. I AM your rear guard. I AM your Captain leading you on, and My glory is round about you. Be sure for you have ample cover. There are many more who are for you than those against you.

So prepare your gear, armor up, and move in on your enemy, and take back what the enemy has tried to steal from you. Take it all back and much more. Let out a victory shout, join ranks, and move on in for this is the day of Jubilee, a time of great rejoicing. Yes, shout and rejoice for you have the victory, says your Lord and King.

Be sure, My child, that I AM doing a deep work in you of My Spirit and grace. I AM calling you to a higher plane of revelation concerning My Word and of My will in these latter days. I AM preparing you to be able to come apart from the cares of the world, and even of its enticements, and to be able to just come before Me in the Spirit of truth and holiness, and just bask in My presence.

Your heart is to know Me to the fullest, but this will take time. Relationship is not an overnight thing, but a process of opening up to one another in trust and honesty, so that each one can truly reveal that which is of their deepest soul. And I truly want to open up to you, and reveal that which is of My deepest part of My heart. I know that I can trust you, because I will pour out My wisdom upon you. And I will engrave upon your heart that which I have need for you to travail for, and to stand in the gap for. Yes, I will use you mightily, but you must always yield to Me in obedience no matter what the price or what man may say. Be bold and be strong for I AM with you, and I will accomplish through you My mission that I've called you to.

My people are so caught up with the cares of the world and its distractions that they don't have the time or desire to come away from it all and just be with Me. And this hurts Me deeply not only because I lack their fellowship, but because they aren't being prepared for the coming holocaust upon this earth. They need the strength of My Spirit to be able to stand. They need to be prepared for it by having spent much time before Me where it has become a way of life for them, to where it has become a delight and a thing to look forward to, to be able to spend time with Me.

Much is going to happen soon that if you haven't developed that "secret place" within your heart, that place that you can withdraw into at any time, that all that is around you will overcome you and overwhelm you with fear, frustration, and defeat. So, do your part to encourage others to prepare by coming apart from the world and to draw into My presence. I need to be the number one focus of your lives, that which you live for, to worship Me and to serve Me in accomplishing My will and not your own.

I said if you would seek My face and My righteousness, all these things will be added unto you. All the world strives for will be your blessing if you only obey. Do your part to stand for truth, righteousness and integrity. Cast down and break covenant with all that is of the evil one. Laugh not and entertain not yourselves with that which grieves Me, but feed on that which is pure and wholesome, of good report, is of virtue which is Mine, and that which edifies yourself and others. Lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Me, and I will direct your paths.

Those who wait upon Me I will renew their strength. They will mount up as eagles. They shall run and not get weary. They shall walk and not faint. Always seek Me, and I will show you how to wait, to be still, and to know that I AM God, and that I AM faithful to preserve you, to keep you, and to make you strong so you can stand.

Be bold, and know that I AM God, and that I AM with you always, says the Lord. With My favor upon you, you can never be defeated. Just know I back you up every step of the way. If ever anyone comes against you, they are coming against Me, and I will be your defense. Just keep your heart right before God and man, and My favor will be upon you always, and you also will receive the favor of men.

Now, be blessed, and I will be your strength this day and always, and My love will flow through you to repel evil and to draw in those lost. Be blessed and be in peace, says your God.

I feel the Lord admonishing us to step out and overcome the hindrances of the enemy upon our lives. Here is a ministry we all can be a part of. Blessings to you! Yolanda

Walk In Prayer

Although there might not be any signs in the air of a coming storm, there is one on the horizon. And I warn you this day to obey My voice, keep My commands, and walk with Me closely, and I will keep you safe. Walk and pray even around the area that you live in and claim the land. If you don't, who will, for I AM looking for even one who will stand in the gap for My people for whom I gave My life for?

As you walk the streets, claim them for My kingdom. Yes, walk the streets, and take note of areas that reek with many forms of oppression for I will make you aware of these. Yes, take notes literally in a notebook, and go over them in your prayer closet. As you walk, pray for My will to be done in the lives of the people and that I will pour out great grace and mercy endlessly. Be a good neighbor just like the Samaritan who put his life out for one left on the streets unwanted and not cared for. For this is the time and the hour to reach out like never before.

Be led by My Spirit. Do not go out only as an act of obedience or even obligation for you need My anointing for it to be of any effect. Watch Me and pray, and assume the responsibility of one who would give their life for others who I have died for. If you don't, who will? Be open to My leading at all times for I will move mightily though you to touch the lost. When you go out, put this high on your list of priorities.............to reach the lost!

When you go to the market place, as you go to work, at the library or even the post office, keep your eyes open for that open door to walk through, that opportunity to share My grace, to spread My good news that I gave My life for them.

And as you obey My leading, I will pour out even a stronger anointing upon you. And signs and wonders will increase in your life. Do the work of an evangelist. Heal the sick, cast out demons and yes, raise the dead. Freely give what you have received. Yes, be as a free-flowing fountain springing up unto new life. For you reap what you sow. Plant seeds of new growth and watch what I will do.

Be faithful in your walk with Me by being open to My will, for your life is not your own. I paid the price for you. You are My Body, and I want you to go out and claim the land. Assume the responsibility of an evangelist, and walk and pray, and plant the seeds of faith wherever you go, for this is the time and the hour where I will pour out My power, and through you, My people. Do yourself a favor, and step out and see what I will do.

Yes, come out of your caves, even those who say they don't have the time or a ministry that amounts to anything. Do not receive the lies of the evil one for all My people are important and very valuable to Me and My kingdom. So this day right where you are, step out and take a walk, and breathe in the fresh air, and claim new beginnings for you and your whole household. For what you plant for My kingdom, I will abundantly pour over and touch you with blessings immeasurable. As you put My kingdom first, I will supply all your needs. I will heal your land, and touch your loved ones with My grace and mercy. I will heal your body and renew your mind. Walk in My will, and I will bless you, says your Lord and Redeemer.

Rise up, mighty warriors! Rise up and take the land for there is a mighty battle on the horizon, one that the enemy will try to use to persuade you to turn away, to lay down, to put aside all that I called you to do. And he will come as an angel of light in the form of deception to make you think that this is a time to take off from the regular things I've called you to do and take the time to lay back and rest. Even though in the natural a rest is very much needed, because the enemy has come on strong and long to beat down My people to wear you down to nothing. But do not give in.

Come into My secret place so that I can build you up and refresh and rejuvenate you. Come into My secret place so I can speak into your heart words of encouragement so you can go on in the battle. For this is an important time to keep pressing in on the enemy. He is losing ground and breakthrough for My kingdom is right at hand. So do not give into the episodes the enemy is using to dissuade you, to discourage you, and to pull you back. Do not give in. Look to Me the author and finisher of your faith. Look to Me, and I will sustain you and restore you to health. Didn't I promise in My word that no weapon formed against you shall prosper and nothing by any means can harm you? For this is My truth to you, and I AM faithful to keep My word.

Rise up, mighty warriors! Rise up and take the land! Press in on the enemy with forehead set like flint. Be bold, and be courageous, and do not look back for the strongholds of the enemy are crumbling in front of you. And yes, things look bad in many ways, because the enemy is panic stricken and is pulling in his troops ever stronger, because he knows this is the end of the race, and he wants to pull down with him all that he can. He knows his time is over, and that he is a defeated foe. He cannot deny it, because he knows I defeated him at the Cross when I gave My life for you. So rise up ever so faithfully, and keep on pressing in for the victory is yours, says the Lord.

Examine your hearts, My lovely ones. Know that what I have called you to do I have prepared you for. Do not walk timidly but stand bold in the face of the giants that come against you. Know that there are many more mightier than those that are for you than those against you. Examine your hearts to see if you are walking in all that I have called you to do, no holding back in any area. Rise up and be bold and know that I have equipped you for the warfare. You have everything that you need to stand firm to the end.

So draw close to Me and rise up, and be sure that I AM your rear guard. I stand before you and My glory is all around you. Yes, I have you well covered and protected and preserved from the foe as you walk forth in the battle ground and take the land. Those flaming arrows that come against you are shielded from your heart. No, they cannot penetrate the force field around you which is My love for perfect love casts out all fear. Your mind is covered with My blood. Those thoughts the enemy tries to plant in your mind will not hold power against you, because you have learned to walk in My will casting down all vain imaginations that come against who I AM. For you have the mind of Christ.

I have made you a mighty warrior, because you are covered with My very own armor. I have given you My sword, and I have given you My shield. I embrace you with My love and cover you, and encourage you now to rise up, go forth and take the land. Possess all that I gave My life for you to have. Do not settle for less than the best. You are to be strong and healthy for My will for you is divine health. And you are to prosper and have success in every area of your life.

Come soar with Me, My lovely ones, high above all power and principality for you are seated with Me at the right hand of the Father. So I encourage you this day, this very moment, to rise up in the strength of the Lord. Rise up in dynamic power of My Spirit. The same power that raised Me from the dead dwells in you! Yes, I have made you mighty for you are warriors of light, and no weapon formed against you can prosper. Rise up and take the land for this is the day of salvation, says your Lord and King.

I AM calling you to a deeper place in worship that you have never experienced before, a place where you can just bask in My presence like being by streams of living water continuously rushing from the throne room of God. Yes, I AM calling you closer than ever before to prepare you for what is ahead, for you need the refreshing that takes place only within the secret place of the Father's heart.

Come apart from the cares of the world. Leave them all in your Father's hands for He cares for you dearly, and He is more than able to take care of them all. Just rest in My presence, and concentrate only on those things that I have promised to you. Believe without doubt or wavering no matter what you see before you.

Believe only for the best, and see the good that can take place in every situation, for this is the time and the hour to choose who you will believe. Will it be the lying circumstances, because if they go contrary to My word and will for you, that is what they are.....lies. Or will you stand on My promises that will manifest in My perfect timing? Believe the good in every situation for truly all things work out for the good if you love Me and are called according to My purpose.

Now just rest in Me, and concentrate of My faithfulness. Be faithful and believing unto death, and I will give you a crown of life. Examine your heart if you are truly resting in Me. If not, then you need to realign your thoughts and actions according to My word. Cast down those vain imaginations of the worse that can possible happen when going through the fire.

Remember My faithfulness of My deliverance and restoration to others, and all the times I have set you free before. I never waver from My promises. I AM always constant. You can count on Me to keep My word. Maybe not the way you expected, but believe that My ways are perfect. I know what it takes to transform you into My image. Don't you know that I AM your Father, and I know what is best. Just trust Me always.

Yes, believe Me and stay faithful, and I will give you a crown of life. And there will come a time when you will bow before My throne and cast it before Me. I will always bring you health and good fortune if you trust in Me. Remember this is the day of salvation. This is the hour to choose whether you will rest in Me or just strive after the wind.

I love you and want to bring you into a deeper place in Me, but you must learn to be still and to take every opportunity to come before Me. Don't let the cares of the world discourage you. Don't worry about the timing of things whether you will meet that debt deadline. Didn't I say that My people will never beg for bread? I will always fill your mouth with good things if your heart is stayed on Me.

For this is the time of the last trump, so be ready by resting in Me. As deep cries out to deep, every hindrance will dissipate as the rain upon the field. For the great catching away will come when many are caught unaware, but to those who are ready, they will know the time and the hour for they have made themselves ready in the secret place. They will know the tug in their spirit "come up higher," and they have followed closely My call.

So when I call you to come apart from the cares of the day, follow Me, for I will surely lead you by those streams of living water, and I will prepare you by the refreshing of My Spirit. And My joy and My peace will be your strength, for this is the final hour for the catching away of My saints.

Be still and know that I AM God. Clothe yourself with My armor of light, and march out to fight the evil one. Take back what the enemy has tried to steal from you, for I AM for you and no weapon formed against you can prosper. For this is the time for the end time harvest. Do not allow the enemy to sidetrack you from what really matters, and that is to draw the lost into the net.

Reach out and know that I AM faithful to anoint you and to give you the words to say so that you may touch their hearts with My love and glory. Reap that which you have sown by faith for now is the time to march in and take the land back from the evil one. Rise up and be bold and join ranks. Yes, you are to be in unity for you cannot make it on your own.

Submit to those I have assigned over you to care for your soul. For yes, I have raised up true pastors, those who will stand with you in this great end time battle. For yes, you must trust them for I have spoken wisdom into their hearts on your behalf and for your loved ones. For I have given them the Father's heart on behalf of His flock. They love you with a passion to see you free and that you rise up as mighty warriors against the evil one.

Once again I beseech you to cast down the vain imaginations of suspicion and doubt for I AM not out to rob you of your calling but to prepare you for a double portion of My Spirit. So humble yourself before My throne of grace, and open your heart to receive a deeper revelation of My plan and purpose for your life. Reach out and know that I AM faithful to complete the work that I have begun in you.

Do not look at the circumstances in the natural. Stand on My word alone, and trust Me to keep My promises to you of healing, of prosperity, of spiritual abundance in your life. Do not doubt but believe and receive all that I have for you for this is a time of restoration. Yes, it is a time of healing and to take back all that is yours. Rise up and be bold and rest in Me and I will take you to the other side.......to the land flowing with milk and honey, of abundance for I have promised you a life of abundance. Do not settle for less than the best.

Be excited, My holy ones, for you are not defeated. You are just going through transition, a time of restlessness, a time of not knowing how to handle what is happening, a time of travail and of birthing. But you need to cry out to Me for the strength you need. Cry out for My presence and My anointing to take you through. For you are My warriors and I AM preparing you for the next level of warfare. Greater breakthrough entails greater warfare, but you will press through and succeed for it is I who has called you and raised you up.

You are Mine and I will lead you in the battle and together we will draw in the multitudes. Rest in Me, My holy ones. Reap a harvest untold of until this day, the greatest ever! So be ready for an empowering of light that will blind the evil one, those of his camp, and will draw in those I gave My life for. For yes, I died that all will have life, but My remnant must rise up and be the end time conquerors to bring it all forth. Be faithful to your calling. It is not time to slack off. Do not go by feelings but by faith and you will succeed in Me.

Cast your cares upon Me. Let the past drop away and step into new beginnings for today is the beginning of a new day to rise up as the over-comers I have called you to be. So march on, My holy ones, and rest in My joy, My strength, to carry you through for yes, this is a new day in Me, says your God.
