FREEDOM IS COMING - May 17, 2023

“Repent, then, and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord.”

Acts 3:19

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.”

Hebrews 12:1

Press into Me. Press in and press on. The trials you are undergoing are temporary and soon Satan shall be crushed under your feet and you shall move out in great demonstration of power and authority. This authority is Kingdom authority, released unto you by your Heavenly Father who has chosen you and set you apart for such a time as this. Be willing and obedient to receive of Me, to lay down your life for Me, to stand up for Me under persecution and accusation and I will reward you greatly. Keep your eyes and your heart fixed on the Father and Son and you will be taken to great heights in My Spirit, says the Lord. Continue to throw off the things that dog your feet. Continue to stand against the temptations that come. Listen for My voice and counter the voice of the enemy. Tune your ears to hear My voice, for in this way, you are able to walk through the fire and not get burned. My word is a light for your path and it will guide you through.

Seek Me in every situation. Do not be discouraged by what you see, but put your trust in your Heavenly Father. You have not been this way before and this ground is unfamiliar to you, but trust Me to win the victory. Stumblings and fallings will come, but with each encounter, a greater depth of understanding of the things of the Kingdom is coming. Be encouraged. Know that everything is in My hands. Bring every area of concern before Me and know that I hear your heart’s cry and that I will answer. Be willing to put everything into My hands and I will honor this, for My desire is that you surrender everything to Me and let Me heal you and raise you up. Let go of those things that try to dictate to you. Let go of worldly wealth and pleasure and you will see My hand move on your behalf to take you higher up the mountain. Sing a song of love unto your Savior. Abandon yourself unto Him. This world is passing away and all things are becoming new, so be willing to let the things of the world go.

Hold fast to what I have shown you. Keep these secrets in your heart. This is the day of justification for the elect. Multitudes are in the valley of decision and in this day, the harvest is coming in. The sound is the sound of the trampling of the nations. I am threshing the nations in this day, says the Lord, and the enemy is being trampled underfoot. Rejoice in your God, for He is coming in vengeance to cut away the hold of the enemy on your life. You will be released to dance and sing unto your God. A release of the power of My Spirit is going forth in great waves. The waves are roaring forth with the vengeance of God. Sing a new song unto the Lord. Bring Him the sacrifice of praise. Enter His gates with thanksgiving, for He has placed your feet upon the Rock and you shall not be moved.

I am pruning away the dead branches and the process is painful. The trunk of the tree will not be harmed. It will remain and when the pruning is done, new growth will come forth. Branches that do not bear fruit are being removed. Dead, dry limbs are being plucked off. The debris is being pruned away, for the time is short. Much is about to be accomplished in the realm of the Spirit and a great harvest is about to be plucked out of the hands of the enemy. Prepare for abundant growth in the Kingdom of God. The hearts of men need to be softened and the Word of God needs to be planted in them. Pray for the River of Life to come and flood over, a great refreshing, a revival of the soul.

Look to the Lord. Seek His face. Walk in His way. Follow after Him. Leave worldly ways behind. Ask Him to come and wash away what is not of Him. Let Him purify and hone till the stone becomes a gem of great worth. Walk in the Spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. Separate yourself from evil and do not let yourself be defiled. Take the Word of God and go forth into the world, taking the light of God with you.
