A Threshold

Bill and Marsha Burns

There is a threshold before you, and I invite you to step through without hesitation. Come boldly before the throne, for entrance has been given to you. Fear not, little ones, but come into My glory for the times of refreshing. Step through the door. I declare to you that a new door in heaven is being opened. This is a new season that I have prepared and called forth and released by My Spirit. I say to you that the only way to enter in is by the door, and you do this by faith and as you trust in Me.

This is the year of the open door. I have called you for such a time as this, and I have prophesied and spoken to you through My servants of this season and the fresh oil and the wine that is being poured forth. I am filling your cups to overflowing. Come and step through.

Leave the past behind, the heartache of old, for you have been in a wilderness, but I say that the wilderness has a purpose. It is in the wilderness that you get to know Me. In the wilderness I strengthen you. In the wilderness I feed you with heaven's bread. In the wilderness I bring forth the water from the Living Rock. In your wanderings you have learned of Me and found Me in a fresh way. Because you have not let go of the promise or left the vision now you will cross over the Jordan. Through the waters you shall come and receive the promise.

You must now rise up and walk in obedience, for it is written that the children of Israel refused to follow My direction because of unbelief. I say now, gird up the loins of your faith and get ready to cross over. I am sounding the trumpet, and the door is open and the threshold is before you. It is but a small step of faith, and you will be transported into the newness of life and into the place that I am taking you in this season, says the Lord.

In this place I will give bread, and I will give living water. You shall be transformed. You shall be renewed. You shall be healed. You shall walk into your destiny, for I have ordained it and spoken it forth. Now I am revealing it to you that you may simply belief and receive that which I am giving in this season, says the Lord.

I have had a sense of us being divided not from one another, but having a division within ourselves. I have been asking the Lord what it is. I believe He has shown me that we have spent much time masking our insecurities and living in a realm of superficiality. There has also been a real relationship with God all this time, but now there is a division, and it is a divine division, for God is separating out that which is superficial and not real (that which has been masked, that part of us that has been striving after affection and achievement ) so that we can see it for what it really is. This process is going to bring spiritual maturity that we have never had. Suddenly we will begin to see truth because of the humility that is the result of this process. God is bringing us to a place of humility so that we can actually house the Holy Spirit and allow Him to move through us in greater power and anointing. This divine division has been disconcerting and uncomfortable, but it is necessary to bring to light those things that we have been leaning on as a crutch, which has no substance. God will show us what we have depended on apart from Him. This process has had an effect of disorientation, but it has been necessary. We are not to seek comfort from anything or anyone besides the Lord, but we are rather to lean on Him for wholeness. We must let go of the things that we see in ourselves that need to be separated out before we can move forward in the power of God.

The Depth Of My Love

You have not yet experienced the depth of My love, says the Lord. You have not yet found the outer reaches of it, for there are none. I would have you come unto Me with a heart to know Me and a heart to search out and find My love, for if you knew and understood the power of My love you would never allow the enemy to hold you. My love covers a multitude of sins, and My love brings My people through always. It was because of the love of My heart for you that I went to Calvary and suffered its torment and humiliation. You must also take up your own cross and follow after Me, and you will find the abounding glory of My love. I pour it out upon you now to sustain you and strengthen you and keep you in the abiding glory, which I have spoken of, which is the power of restoration that your joy may be filled with the consciousness of My glorious love which is extended to each one, says the Lord.

Marsha Burns

Beloved, do not allow discouragement or despair to take you away from My purposes. You must rise up out of this dungeon and remember that your way of escape is believing the promises of My word. Do not allow broken dreams and regrets to steal the joy that I have set before you, for truly the joy of the Lord is your strength. Rise up and receive the fresh outpouring of My Spirit upon you that will produce the joy that will bring you through to victory.

I am the Lord that heals you, and I come to quicken your faith and that you might know that in this season I will demonstrate the power of healing once again as it was in the 1950's. There shall be a people who understand, who know and desire to see My glory manifest in the earth. To that people, I say, there is coming the abiding glory upon My people, a glory that will not lift or be removed or be diminished in any manner. You are a people who are abiding in Me, and those who abide in Me and are obedient to My word and to that which I have ordered in your lives shall find the glory cloud of My presence and power. It is spoken, and it shall come to pass.
