Milk And Honey

I Am Pouring Out Milk And Honey
Dec 23rd, 2003
I am cherishing My time with you. Closer and closer-I want you to come close and hide yourself in ME. I am drawing you to My chest that you may hear My heartbeat and know My most intimate feelings and the secrets of My heart.
Then I saw a vision of milk being poured from a pitcher and mixed with Honey also being poured out in a similar way…and it just kept flowing and flowing.
I am leading you into a land in the Spirit, flowing with milk and honey. Flowing with the nurturance of the milk of My word, and the sweetness of My love. Those who come and drink of this outpouring will be made new and never be hungry or thirsty again. Just as mother’s milk provides so many immunities, My milk and honey will insulate you against all that would come against you. It is only in MY presence that you can receive this nurturance. Not just by ROTE memory of verses of scripture. My WORD is LIFE, but I AM THE LIVING WORD. He who comes to ME personally will never thirst!
John 5:39-40 AMP 39 You search and investigate and pore over the Scriptures diligently, because you suppose and trust that you have eternal life through them. And these [very Scriptures] testify about Me! 40 And still you are not willing [but refuse] to come to Me, so that you might have life.
It is My worshippers that bring healing and deliverance. Those who know how to come into My presence with abandonment and not leave. Those who know how to sit at My feet like Mary. I have too many Martha’s in my house. I need the Mary’s who will sit and learn MY WAYS. Who will drink of ME and discover what is on My heart – who will KNOW ME and My ways, that they might teach them to others with wisdom and understanding.
I will sustain the heart that seeks to know MINE. I will uphold the heart that desires to worship ME. I have a huge treasury of gifts I want to pour out. Many jewels and pearls, and gold and silver. There is enough for everyone. No one will be left out who truly wants to come higher. I see the heart of man. I know what motivates them. I know every thought and action. Nothing is hidden from Me.
I AM the ultimate RESOURCE of everything you are NOT. Come to ME and be filled with glory this season. It is a time for communion with ME. Come My Beloveds and let ME kiss you with revelation and wisdom, and understanding and pour out MY LOVE till you are overwhelmed in My presence! I am longing for this. This is MY GREATEST TREASURE! To have communion with My Bride.

I Am the Defender of the Lame!
I Am the Great Physician!

I Am a harbinger for the weak!
I Am the anchor that keeps you stayed in Me.

synonym see FORERUNNER
Some of you have been forerunning what is about to come for others. Some of you have already paid the price for the glory that is about to come. You have been rejected of men, but praised in the heavenlies.
Men have spurned you and tried even to destroy you with their words, prayers, and actions, yet I HAVE SUSTAINED you, for I AM for you and not against you.
Even as they tried to destroy ME and my reputation, and even as they tried to murder Me before My time…they have and will try to do so to you. But I have foreseen, and I will protect you until the time that is appointed for you to come home has come to fruition. I am your Keeper! I am the One who sustains you and empowers you, and lodges you deep in My heart.
Come and let Me touch you with My love some more, my sons and daughters.
For I am transitioning you to the next level of having your being in ME. In this new level, you will find a need even more for self-control and death to self. You will have to decide if you will go all the way with ME. Are you willing to be completely hidden in ME?
Will you die to your plans?
Will you take up your cross and FOLLOW ME?
I am waiting for the heart that earnestly desires only ME.
The heart that dies, is resuscitated and filled with ME and My power and authority.
Do you want YOUR opinion to count more than Mine?
How about looking to MY OPINION? Am I not wiser than you?
Am I not omnipotent? Am I not the Creator and you just the created?
Why do hold on to your pride and opinions? Is it not that you desire prominence? Is it not that you still have insecurity weighing on your soul?
Is it not that you still have a need to prove yourself to man?
Who do you have to stand before when you die? Is it man that will judge you or ME? To Whom will you give an account?
I AM purging and I am bringing MORE of My FIRE and I will purge My threshing floors, until they are spotless and free of all debris.
There is no more time to procrastinate!
I have said “enough”. And that is what I mean!
There is swift judgment now for those who oppose MY WILL!
Truth is more noble than the honor of men.
Forgiveness more honored than the stench of bitterness and hate.
Choose this day WHOM you will serve sons of men!
Time awaits no man!
ANCHOR yourselves in Me…and listen for the still small voice.
I am calling, I am teaching, I am counseling, I am directing, I am changing you into the perfect bride for My Son.
I am the Source. I AM THE SOURCE OF ALL YOU NEED!
LOVE is the highest, the greatest, the most overcoming of all!
Be filled with MY LOVE, that you can be filled with the FULLNESS of ME.
Come unto ME…I will purge, and I will heal, and I will fill you up!
Come away NOW!
You Are My Delight
Priscilla Van Sutphin
Dec 28th, 2003
Beloveds, You know that My delight is in YOU. You are the delight of My heart. When you say yes to Me, it particularly delights My heart. Even if your flesh resists the yes on your lips and in your heart, I know that your desire is for ME.
You are dark, but lovely in My eyes. When will you understand that I don’t condemn you? I correct you, but I do not condemn you. I know all that made you who you are today! I know the ravages of every heart. I know who has been bruised…and a bruised reed, I do not break! The one who wants to confuse you and break you, is not of ME at all…He is from below, and the Father of lies.
Did I not say, that if you delight yourself in ME, that I would give you the desires of your heart? I am a good Father, Who gives good gifts to His children who love Him. I said, if you love ME, obey ME! But I also know that it takes time for many who have had their trust defiled and bludgeoned to learn to trust. I am also PATIENT and KIND. I AM KINDNESS. It is MY LOVE that leads to repentance!
I have also said that lack of hope makes the heart sick, and that people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. The truth will set you free, but only if you know and understand the truth! This is why sanctification is process…grace to grace, and glory to glory, based on knowledge of the truth which brings freedom to your soul. When the soul is still occupied by enemy lies and strongholds, then the enemy can still have a grip on your emotions, and freedom to receive all I have for you.
Prov 13:12 NKJV Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life. Hos 4:6 a NIV 6 my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge.
The good news is, that I am coming to PURGE his hold on your soul, that you may be set FREE from his influence, and therefore, obey ME alone. When I shine My GLORY on you, it will burn. It will not be pleasant for some who have hidden their sins, and not been honest with ME even. When I sent My glory to fill the ancient temple, they could not STAND in My presence. Many do not understand the weight and power of My glory! They think it is something to play with, or to be taken lightly. Yet one was killed when he grabbed the holder of the ark, when he was not prepared as a priest to touch it! THAT is why I have been preparing you, and urging you to come into My presence. I WANT to pour out My glory measure by measure to heal and to restore, that when I come in full power, you will be able to come forth as gold refined in the fire.
Mal 3:2-5 NKJV 2 "But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner's fire and like launderers' soap. 3 He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer to the LORD an offering in righteousness. 4 "Then the offering of Judah and Jerusalem will be pleasant to the LORD, as in the days of old, as in former years. 5 And I will come near you for judgment; I will be a swift witness against sorcerers, against adulterers, against perjurers, against those who exploit wage earners and widows and orphans, and against those who turn away an alien — Because they do not fear Me," Says the LORD of hosts.
I am wrestling with some of you, for you have too much on your plate. You continue to fret and worry, busy, busy, busy with the things of life, so much that you won’t spend time with Me. I have said, seek FIRST the kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you. THIS is how you enter My rest. CAST all your cares upon ME, for I care for you. THIS also the road to HUMILITY. Pride is thinking you can be independent from ME in doing anything! Pride is thinking you are less or more than what I have made you. Arrogance is thinking you know better than I what is best for you!
Did you create the heavens and the earth with a word? Did you cause the grass and trees to grow? Did you name the stars? Have you not known, Have you not seen, It is I Who sits above the universe and all things are in MY HANDS. AM I so small to you? Your confidence needs to be in ME, and what I can do in your weakness. My strength is made perfect in your weakness.
If you could do it all because of your superior talent and effort…then I am not in it, am I? How can others see ME in you, unless they know that you alone could NOT do it? Is your faith in your ability or MINE? I AM the Great I AM!
Put your confidence and the FULL of your TRUST in ME. REST in ME. I AM your resting place. I AM your place of safety, your strong tower! LET ME touch you, LET ME provide all you need. If you can do it all, then why should I do ANYTHING. FAITH is the substance of things HOPED FOR, and the evidence of things UNSEEN!!!!
Surely, I am a God close at hand, and not afar off. It is I, Who loves you and adores you, and Who is able to do all I planned from the beginning of time in you to make things happen. You have but to say “YES”, and I will do it in you. Whatever you need, ask for , and I will do it. If YOU do it, then to whom does the glory go? Lay down all the self-effort and TRUST ME!
You will JUMP for JOY when you see all I am up to! BEGIN to rejoice NOW, for I am coming to set you free, and nothing will ever be the same. YOU will never be the same! Rejoice and be glad, put on garments of PRAISE for your LORD draws nigh to His Bride!
