Who is the Antichrist? The Answer May Surprise You!
This is a vital message for the true church of Jesus Christ to hear.

In my communion with the Lord, this is what I heard this morning:
In my communion with the Lord, this is what I heard this morning:
Son,
this is a day and time to draw near to the Lord, to hear my voice
speaking to you and to help others learn to listen to my voice, too.
I have the answers to the myriads of problems facing your world, but
the way itself is narrow, the path small. Many look for a broad way
that they believe will be “the answer” for their nation, but
these ways, although not bad in themselves, are inefficient to solve
the deeper problems facing man today. I am the way, the truth and the
life. If men could only see this and come to me, I would give them
true solutions and answers to the most perplexing problems. Men of
science from the past sought me for answers, and I gave them my
revelation to change the perceptions and perspectives of those around
them. They were not afraid to call me Lord, and to give me credit for
the revelation. Today men are often full of pride, thinking that they
have found solutions in and of themselves. But all Truth comes from
me and if men would seek me early rather than as a last resort, they
would find that many solutions to disease, sickness, early death
could be found in me, in learning to meditate on my word, which has
all the answers for life and godliness, that men and women could be
thoroughly equipped to do service for me and the Kingdom. In the
Kingdom to come, these answers will be revealed, because the Lord
will reign in Jerusalem, and the nations of the earth will be truly
blessed. Those of my family will rule the nations and will bring
light and life to all who dwell on the earth. It will be a time of
peace and safety, because the Lord will return to Zion with great
joy, and there will be true peace on earth. Learning to come to me
now, would hasten the coming of the Lord. Oh, how I long to be with
my bride, and to truly satisfy the longing heart, and dwell among my
brethren, and eat the marriage supper of the Lamb. The day is soon.
Encourage my brethren to come to me for revelation, for
understanding, for all their needs. My provision is perfect, my love
deep, and my fellowship sweet. Tell them, by every means possible
that I am coming soon, and my reward is with me. Tell them I love
them, tell them, tell them.

Serious Place of America in the End Times - Billy Graham article
BILLY GRAHAM’s PROPHETIC WORD
-extracts by Troy Anderson, Charisma News. (BGEA).Famed evangelist Billy Graham’s letter calling America and its “deceived people” to repentance is one in a series of escalating warnings that the nation is in growing danger of God’s judgment, prominent faith leaders told Charisma News…
“This may be our last chance to call the nation to pray,” says Anne
Gimenez, national chairperson of America for Jesus—America for
Jesus—The Awakening, which expects hundreds of thousands of
people to gather at Independence Mall in Philadelphia Sept. 28-29
to pray and intercede for the United States…
In his letter, “My Heart Aches for America,” the 93-year-old Graham
wrote that he recalled how his late wife, Ruth, once expressed
concerns about the nation’s “terrible downward spiral”—exclaiming,
“If God doesn’t punish America, He’ll have to apologize to Sodom
and Gomorrah.”
Graham, who has preached to more people than any other
Protestant in history—2.2 billion—wrote that he wondered what
Ruth would think of the country today where “self-centered
indulgence, pride and a lack of shame over sin are now emblems
of the American lifestyle.”
“My hearts aches for America,” wrote Graham… “The wonderful
news is that our Lord is a God of mercy, and He responds to
repentance. In Jonah’s Day, Nineveh was the lone world superpower—
wealthy, unconcerned and self-centered. When the Prophet Jonah
finally traveled to Nineveh and proclaimed God’s warning, people
heard and repented. I believe the same thing can happen once
again, this time in our nation.”
Graham’s letter calling America to repentance comes as a growing
number of highly respected Christian leaders have issued similar
warnings in recent months, noting that the nation is in a downward
spiral of economic decline, immorality, corruption, growing secular
humanism and attacks on religious liberty.
Jack Hayford, the founding pastor of The Church on the Way in
Van Nuys, Calif., says Graham’s letter comes as the nation is in
a “very grim hour as we approach the election this year.”
“What we need is something on the order of shock troops at this
hour, and I can imagine that can be raised,” Hayford says. “I don’t
feel despairing. I do feel the urgency. We are at a point that
desperate action is needed…”
Wrote Rick Scarborough, chairman of 40 Days to Save America…
“Today, our nation faces multiple crises—pending economic
collapse, moral disintegration and international terrorism—but all
have spiritual underpinnings… The crises confronting us are
beyond the power of human beings to resolve without divine
guidance. Nothing short of a Third Great Awakening can save us.”
For another Great Awakening to occur, Hayford says the church
and believers must engage in “gut-level, spiritually-impassioned
intercessory prayer”—something lacking in most churches today,
few of which even hold prayer meetings anymore…

Is the End of America close?
America
'via Blog this'
'via Blog this'
This is an incredible and eye-opening book. Every Christian in America needs to read and study it. Our future is determined by God, and our only hope is repentance as a nation. The refiner's fire is burning. Are we listening to the voice of God today, or are we dull of hearing? You decide.

Fellowship with God
In my devotion time today, the Lord gave me this word:
Son, welcome today. I bless you today. As you sense my presence, know that I bring security, safety, and my love extended to you and to your family. I direct you by my Word and by my Spirit. As you hear my words, you understand that I often give meanings that are in the natural. But there is always a spiritual component. I use comparisons and analogies, so that you can understand in the natural, the spiritual truths that are unlocked for those who seek Me. This space is "reserved" for those who come to Me and wait upon Me. I delight to give understanding, and my wisdom to those who ask in faith. Don't doubt, just believe. You will see amazing things with your natural eyes in the days to come. It is my great joy to give you the Kingdom. Walk in Kingdom authority. Walk in Kingdom humility. These characteristics are part of my nature which I give to you as part of my endowment of Grace. Be clothed with righteousness. You are a son in whom I am pleased. I see you for what you are in your heart, and what you will be as you grow and mature. Fellowship and intimacy with you are my delight. Walk with Me today. I will lead you and guide you along the path of righteousness.

What about Doubt and Unbelief?
Journaling
10-10-11
Lord,
what do you want to say to me today about doubt and unbelief?
Jym,
it makes me happy that you are coming near to me with all your heart.
I delight to take you deeper in my presence and teach you my ways.
Doubt and unbelief are enemies of faith. When you doubt, you simply
take your eyes off me and turn somewhere else. Learning to trust my
voice is a key to the Kingdom. I have many things to teach you and
show you, and you are learning to tune to the flow of my Holy Spirit
this is very good, because we are making an important connection. I
can flow thorough you to meet your needs and the needs of others who
desperately need to come to the Light and remove their doubt and
unbelief. Let My Light permeate your heart and the Light will flow
out of you to bring glory to me and bless others.
Thank
you, Lord.

“The
entrance of thy Word brings Light.”
“Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path...”
“Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path...”
Lord,
please give me light and illumination of your Word and your Ways. I
want to grow and to know your ways; wisdom from above.... Wisdom is
seeing all of life from your perspective. I want to write
Spirit-anointed books, articles, and develop media, to teach, preach,
and train others in your commands.
From
the time I spoke, “Light Be” light has been. Its sources of power
and effulgence are from my heart— I am the Light of the world.
Light has come into the darkness. The world was at one time in
darkness, but Light has come into the darkness. The world was dark,
void, and formless, until I spoke, “Light Be.” The whole earth
received that balance of light and darkness in order to bring forth
the vegetation and to provide the matrix for life to be sustained. I
always prepare the way before you. My Light shines into the darkness
and gives revelation and illumination so that you can move forward in
faith, hope, and love. I illuminate all that has its roots and
foundation in my Word, because I am the Living Word. My words are
Spirit and they are Life!
Wisdom
has its origin in Me—if anyone lacks it, he can ask me and I will
give it liberally. Even the heart that has not known my power to
change it can receive wisdom from above. I am a teacher, and so I
want all my “class” (students) to receive understanding and
light—not all have taken advantage of the Light and the revelation
of wisdom. But to those who have, it is the power of God unto
salvation.
Yes,
son, the cross was that pivotal revelation. To those who receive it,
and testify about it, receive wisdom from above! This confuses those
who seek wisdom from the world. This wisdom never gets you anywhere.
My “hidden wisdom” - a thing withheld from the worldly wise, but
to those who receive and who understand it is life transforming.
Those
who receive spiritual wisdom from me, take from me and impart to
others bring life, dispel the darkness, and root out, throw down,
destroy, overthrow and then have the foundation of wisdom to build
and plant (Jeremiah 1:10).
You
are awesome, Lord! Your revelation is worth waiting for!
Riches, Honor, and Life
Journaling
9/22/11
This
morning I was meditating on Proverbs 22. Various verses stood out and
land upon my spirit:
22:4
– The reward of humility and the fear of the Lord are riches,
honor, and life. I asked the
Lord to share his thoughts and insights about these verses.
Humility
is greatly honored in the Kingdom (let
this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus – Philippians 2:5). A
humble man has a teachable spirit. He is slow to get angry, patient
and kind. Meekness and humility are attitudes of the heart. What a
man is really, is what is in his heart. Men can act out in the
physical, but they cover their internal motivations. Most men regard
physical strength, mental sharpness and prowess to be characteristics
of a “real” man. But the Lord looks at the heart of a man. This
is what he is really. A humble man has nothing to hide. He can be
transparent with God, with those he loves, and with others around
him.
The
fear of the Lord is a quality of reverence and respect. It is
reflected in faith and works. As a man humbles himself before Me, he
is demonstrating the fear of the Lord. Willingness to receive
instruction and grow from it are characteristics of this quality.
Riches
both spiritual and physical – true provision
Honor:
a man who walks in
humility and the fear of the Lord is honored by God and by his
fellowman. These are natural byproducts and fruit that will grow and
reproduce.
Life:
fulness of life, living it to the full—enjoying life and all it
brings. Enjoy the creation, your family, and the blessing of friends.
This kind of life is infectious. Others will come to your light.
Thank
you Lord! Awesome insight.
22:6
– Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he
will not depart from it. What
would you say to me here, Lord?
Training
is a very difficult challenge, because it requires consistency and
devotion. Many leave the training of their sons and daughters to
others, to tutors and governors. But really, your children should be
your delight and training them “in the way” should become a
central focus of their growth years. Busyness and other stresses can
often short-circuit the training process. As a father, make sure sons
and daughters are taught the Living Word of God. Show them by example
how to trust Me. Often a child has more spiritual insight and wisdom
then adults, simply because his faith is pure and there is not a
history of unbelief that has to be overcome.
Lay
a strong foundation in the early years, and your sons and daughters
will rise up to engage their full inheritance and find their purpose
quickly in My Kingdom. When they are old, they will have learned to
teach their sons and daughters “in the way” they were taught and
so on to many generations.
Thank
you so much, Lord!

The Armor of God
I have been reflecting on the passage in Ephesians 6 concerning the armor of the warrior. Each piece of the soldier’s armor, as described by Paul the apostle, has a special significance for each and every believer. Lord, will you help me understand more about this armor and it’s importance for the believer?
A soldier’s armor is is outfit of protection and readiness to do battle with his adversary. Paul described the armor because he was chained to a Roman warrior during his imprisonment. His reflection came out of his reality. The armor and its weapons are designed for defense, and offense. Each piece is a functional piece for protection, warfare, and implementation of a battling spirit.
Eph 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might...
I enable you to draw from my strength as you face the battle. your strength will give out in time, but mine is perfect. So why not draw upon my strength to face the evil day?
6:11 Put on the full armor of God, that you may be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil...
Remember it is MY STRENGTH, and it is my armor. You must be proactive and suit up for the battle. My armor will fit perfectly, and protect faithfully. My desire is for you to stand firm and have discernment to know the schemes of the wicked one. Your adversary attempts to derail you and cause you to move in a direction contrary to mine. You need the FULL armor of God to prepare yourself for war. Each piece of the armor is essential to insure victory. The belt of truth gives a security and protection to the inner most part of your being. The heart, and the bowels are protected from enemy swords and spears. My desire is for living water to flow out of your innermost being, but your adversary wants to permanently disable you from the flow of my Spirit because this is a great threat to his kingdom. He is a deceiver,. but the belt of Truth, combats and stands against his onslaughts of error that cause the heart to be sick. Your loins are your ability to bring forth seed and multiply upon the earth. Satan’s desire it to kill the godly seed and take you out, so that you do not reproduce after your kind. The breastplate protects your heart, your motives, your passion, your intensity to fulfill the mission. Satan wants to keep you from fulfilling your destiny. Make sure to protect your heart, and keep it with all diligence. The helmet protects the mind from wicked intruders. The vital functions and directives come from the head. This helmet is the salvation of the house.
The sword and shield are offensive/defensive. They allow you to move forward into the NEW and take back the ground that was captured by the enemy. Don’t be afraid or dismayed. I will teach you how to use your weapons successfully. You make me very proud of you for taking a stand for me.
Prayer is one of the most important weapons in the arsenal. Because as you commune with Me, you are learning to hear my voice and then simply obey what you hear. As you make petition for the saints, I clothe them with my armor as well and give them the covering of victory. So pray constantly in the Spirit. Father can detect and discern what is your heart’s desire. Don’t worry. Just move in Me and with Me to the battle. I am faithful to help you to overcome by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of your testimony. Prepare for War, and succeed in mounting the charge when it is time.
Thank you Lord, for your continued direction and teaching in my life. I love you and bless you.

7 Things the Lord says He hates...
Journaling
September 6, 2011
I was meditating this morning on Proverbs 6, and noted particularly the seven things that the text says that the LORD hates, or are an abomination to him:
1. Haughty eyes
2. A lying tongue
3. Hands that shed innocent blood
4. A heart that devises wicked plans
5. A false witness that utters lies
6. Feet that run rapidly to evil
7. One who spreads strife among brothers
Lord, this is a tough passage this morning. Would you please teach me, and show me your ways?
A man that walks in these conditions is disjointed, diseased in heart and spirit. He is focused on self, rather than focused on me. Deceit, pride, arrogance, gossip--these all stem from the same spirit that drove Lucifer to mount his rebellion in heaven. His whole “MO” is deceit. The truth is not in him. Whenever a man lives out of this motivation, he can not come to the light because his way is full of darkness. His purpose is to deceive, cover, twist, and turn the truth of God into a lie. This is his motive and his practice. Many are religious, but it can be a cloak to attempt to cover the inner motives of the heart. But i see into a man’s heart. I see the hidden things.
When a man acknowledges this darkness and confesses his sin and deceit, he opens the door to my healing and restoration. I can make him pure in heart, cleansing and purifying him by my blood. A man has to full surrender, in order to truly begin this process.
This is the default mechanism that works in the sons of disobedience. My truth brings light into the darkness. Darkness tries to hide, but it can not hide from me. I shine light into the dark corners of the earth; into the recesses of the hearts of men, so that there is no excuse. When a man chooses this way of darkness, he becomes that man, so that he lives out from what he believes. Attempts to hide are futile. I expose darkness, in order to redeem. But a man who refuses to submit to the light, chooses to remain in darkness--his leaf will wither, and whatever he does is cursed.
When one comes to the light, he is changed through and through, so that his life can become a light, transparent, holy, pure, and innocent; all permitting my light to shine through so that others may come to the light. The light in them will push back the darkness and create and establish a place where life can flourish. Purity of heart, purity of motive, and purity of mind is a reflection of my own nature. For I have given everything that pertains to the divine nature so that men who have embraced light and revelation from me will be changed from glory to glory. I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; I AM the Light of the world!
Hallelujah, and praise your name! Lord!
What are the opposites of the things you hate? What do you love?
1. Humble hearts. Humility is honored in the Kingdom.
2. Truthful lips, motivated from a truthful heart.
3. Hands that labor to protect the innocent and bring true justice
4. A heart motivated and delighted to do my will
5. a truthful, faithful witness, that courageously proclaims truth in my kingdom, before babes and kings.
6. Feet that are moving to spread truth, peace, and love
7. One who lives in unity with brothers and others, who protects relationships from damage; a peacemaker, wound healer, a restorer and repairer of the breach, and a restorer of the path to dwell in. (Isaiah 58).

Anything
else? Lord? I want nothing to be hidden from you. Expose and bring to
light that which is in my soul. Remove from me all that is unlike you...
Son, when a man’s ways please the LORD, He will cause even his enemies to be at peace with him.
No place of darkness in me, Lord...
This
is the light of heaven on earth--my light shines upon you, and in you,
and through you. My life and light are synonymous. These are both facets
of my nature. I created light and separated the light from the
darkness.
Are we in the "last days?"
September 7, 2011--Journaling
In the last days perilous times come (2 Timothy 3:1-5). “Since we are accountable for our every word and deed, we must make these choices that will bring forth the fruit of the Spirit.” “And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and sinner appear? (I Peter 4:18). “And the Lord said to Moses, whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book (Exodus 32:33). “He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father and before His angels (Rev. 3:5).
So Lord, will you teach me concerning matters of judgment at the end?
My disciples asked me concerning the end. You have read the words inspired by the Holy Spirit to Matthew, Peter, Luke, and John. the judgment is a place where men recognize the supremacy of my Father’s will. Every mean will be judged. Judgment is not a fearful thing to those who have their name inscribed in the Lamb’s book of life--those who have repented and turned from their sins. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God. Your adversary has a goal: to keep you from life, from discovering the keys to eternal life, and to kingdom life itself.
This life is in the Son and He gives life to those who ask. Without the Son, there is no life at all; only a fearful dread of what is coming. For those who have made adequate preparation, the future is bright and full of hope. Paul was right when he said that we have hope because we have life itself. Your hope is built on nothing else, than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. This hope does not make one ashamed. “Hope deferred makes the heart sick.” So many do not know the way or have been blinded from the truth. “If your gospel is hidden, it is hidden to those that are lost.” his agenda is to stand in the way of light, to block it from the eyes and ears of those walking in darkness. your mission is to shine the light of the truth into the darkness so that men will come to the light. It is a voluntary action on their part, in order to come to the knowledge of the Truth. For they will know (ginosko) the Truth, and the Truth will set them free!!!

Trusting the LORD in Tough Times
Journal
Entry
August
20, 2011
In
Psalm 20, at the beginning in verses 1-5, David is giving a prophetic
blessing to the chief musician. He is encouraging him by reminding
him that the Lord will answer in a day of trouble; will give strength
and help from his dwelling place. He blesses him and encourages him
by saying that the Lord will answer all his petitions and desires. In
other words, don't sweat it, God is in control. Our trust is in the
name of the Lord our God and He will never fail us. What would you
have to say to me Lord in this regard this morning?
Jym,
sometimes the laborers get weary, and seem to lose heart in the
battle. David was encouraging the worship leader in the battle. His
answers were in Me. Even in times of trouble and difficulty, I
delight to help and bring the victory in the lives of my people.
Worshipers have a unique purpose. They bridge heaven and earth and
bring my people to the place of trust and confidence in the Lord.
These times in which you are living are difficult, but I will be your
constant help, if you seek me and come to know me.
David went on to declare in verse 6,
“Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He will answer him
from His holy heaven with the saving strength of His right hand.
Anything here Lord?
Nothing
builds faith and hope like experience. David was a worshiper and a
warrior. He was first a worshiper. He had personal knowledge of Me
and My presence. He knew from experience that I could be trusted to
bring an answer from the realms of heaven into the realm of earth. My
dominion into his dominion. David's delight was to know me. He was a
man after my own heart. But he desired for others to know me as well.
This brought great joy to My heart. This is the chief end of man, to
love the LORD your God and to worship Him forever. In this place, is
my help and provision.
David finally declared that “some
trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name
of the LORD our GOD! Others fall, but we will stand! Then he cries,
SAVE LORD! May the King answer us when we call.
Many
nations and individuals trust in the strength of their armies to save
them. Some in their economies. But those who have my heart are those
that trust in ME to deliver. I will answer from heaven as you call
upon me. So call...
So Lord, my pastor says that I need to
shift my thinking from the small church mentality, to the large,
corporate church mentality. I want to submit to this and trust you
for the growth you would like to give in the house I'm responsible
for. I know that it is not in the numbers where there is success, but
in the depth of the people to be able to trust in you and your Word
in the times ahead. What would you have to say to me concerning this?
Jym,
I am concerned for the one. Even the little sparrow that falls from
heaven, I see. I loved the whole world, but sent my Son into the
world to save the world, one person at a time. Don't forget the
one...the many will come to the light as you let your light shine in
the darkness. Continue to come to Me and see ME, then you will
minister from this place of knowledge, true intimacy. This is the
power to transform individuals and nations. I have called you to the
nations. So don't worry about the how, just come to Me and you will
see...
I worship you LORD. You are all my
hearts desire. I love you, LORD. Please enlarge my capacity to
receive from you, and cause me to be enlarged in spirit. I want to
worship you in Spirit and in Truth. Help me to press into your
presence and abide there. For you said if you abide in Me and my
Rhemas abide in you, you can ask what you will and it shall be done
unto you. Increase my faith, LORD. Bless the LORD O my soul, and all
that is within me, bless HIS name!!!
Meditations on various Psalms
Journal Entry
September 1, 2011
Reading
from Psalm 1, 31, 61, 91 this morning. Noted that the Lord discusses
with David that He is a shelter and a refuge for his beloved. I love
the beginning of a new month and these first day Psalms are such a
blessing.
Anything
that you want to say to me here, Lord?
I
give my counsel to those who wait upon Me. I delight to give wisdom
and direction to your life on a moment by moment basis. Living in the
counsel of God prepares you to enter into the NEW in fresh ways. My
mercies are NEW every morning. That is why I have given a portion for
each day. Fruitfulness and success are drawn out of a life that is
surrendered and one that waits on the LORD. Your strength is renewed,
and your way becomes smooth. Circumstances don't matter at all. You
learn to taste and see that the LORD is good. Delight yourself in my
law, and meditate in it, and you will see a fruitful harvest.
What of, “his leaf will not wither, and whatever he
does prospers”...
True
prosperity is in knowing Me. My supply never runs out! My provision
is always just what is needed. I supply an abidance for every good
work. I see the future, so that when you are investing time in my
presence and listening to Me, you are multiplying your harvest. Just
as seed brings forth an abundance even in one generation, so in the
generations to come, the harvest is greatly multiplied. There is an
exponential effect on the planting and harvesting. Everything you do
will succeed, if the plans grow out of My heart, and are sown into
your heart. Your life will be fruitful, and what you produce will
last into the next generations.
Praise your NAME LORD! In Psalm 61 David was saying that
you preserve the life of the King and his years will be as many
generations. Can you explain?
Life
begets life. There were times when men’s lives were as trees.
Consider Methuselah. But when a man's ways please the LORD, I long to
be closer. Consider Enoch. As you are learning to yield to Me, and
come into my presence, your life is preserved. Consider Moses on the
mountain of God. He was in my presence for 80 days, and yet he didn't
need food or water because I sustained Him. Such is the man who draws
near to Me. Provision is the resource of heaven. In my presence is
FULNESS of joy. O taste and see that the LORD is good. The time will
come again when mien’s ages will be like trees. I sustain youth,
and yours is renewed like the eagle's. Wait upon the LORD, and you
will renew your strength.
In Psalm 91, you inspired David to write about the
results of a life fully committed to YOU and one who is walking in
your presence. “For you have made the LORD, my refuge, Even the
MOST HIGH your dwelling place...therefore...
David
understood the important thing in life, was learning to dwell in my
presence. Abiding in ME is not only a privilege, but life itself.
Nothing can touch you in my presence, because you are protected by my
covering. A shelter, a rock. A place of peace and prosperity.
Dwelling here keeps you from ultimate harm. Sometimes I lead you to
in dark pathways, not only to test you, but to bring glory to the
Father through your defeat of snakes and scorpions. I have alreay
overcome the wicked one. As you move in my Spirit, and get
comfortable with flow, you will see many of his kingdoms fall. No
stronghold can withstand the force of my presence. I can simply
breathe, and they will all fall down. No enemy can hide from my
presence. So why should you be afraid. I give victory over the
battles, and remember WE WIN the WAR of the ages, too. David was a
worshiper and a WARRIOR. Learning the ways that I do spiritual
warfare against the strongholds of the enemy will bring you into a
new fighting position. My weapons are many. I do have secret weapons
of mass destruction to take him down, and ultimately destroy his
kingdoms. Nations will come to the knowledge of the LORD. As my
people learn to dwell in ME, abiding in my presence, they will know
no defeat. Only Jericho’s, and not Ai's. Listening is the key.
Here. Clothe yourself with my armor. Walk in ME and ultimately MARCH,
to the beat of my drum. War is immanent. But I’ve already given you
the picture of the end. Stand on your ground and fight, and win over
the wicked one. My weapons are mighty. Pull down strongholds, and
take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ, and you will
see many victories in the days to come!
Hallelujah! Selah!
Psalm 121 is a blessing, too. The promise is that YOU
don't slumber or sleep, and YOU keep us from evil. Any light?
David
lifted up his eyes, looking for vision, looking for answers. He
realized that help comes not from the strength of men, nor how many
horses he has, but rather, one who has placed his trust in ME, shall
not fall. I do provide protection from the wicked one, and he cannot
touch you. My protection is real. Do you believe this? Yes,
Lord, I believe... many have given their lives in sacrifice
for the testimony. They are lights in my glorious kingdom. Lights
that will not be extinguished.. they continue to shine even today.
You see, your life on earth is only a vapor; but I made you to
inherit eternity. So the short time you have on earth is only an
investment in your future. What you do can bring honor or dishonor.
It is how you dedicate it, and separate it unto ME. I redeem your
life from destruction, and allow you to experience your highest good,
because I dwell in you, and lead you in the way everlasting. You will
be with ME forever, in my kingdom. Learning to live as a citizen of
that kingdom, often takes a lifetime in your years, to just begin to
understand all the things that I have prepared for you. I have many
surprises awaiting you and your kindred. Be faithful to proclaim my
NAME among the nations. You will see a harvest that will “blow your
mind” as you say.
I rest in that provision, protection, and prosperity...

Hearing the Voice of God
Journal Entry
August 25, 2011
Reading Psalm 25 this morning. Lord, what would you say to me from your Word today? (NLT)
O, Lord, I give my life to you. I trust in You, my God!
Jym, this is always the first step. Coming to Me is the best decision anyone can make in life. Trusting in Me is the beginning of a life-long journey that will take you to many places in my Spirit. Come, and let us walk together.
Do not let me be disgraced, or let my enemies rejoice in my defeat. No one who ever trusts in You will ever be disgraced, but disgrace comes to those who try to deceive others.
When you come to Me, you are clothed with My righteousness. You are covered by my blood. I already suffered shame and disgrace before the enemies of God, but my response... Father forgive them. If you are poised with humility, you will couple that humility with compassion for others who do not know. The liar, the deceiver, will indeed suffer disgrace. He who comes to me will be clothed in the Truth, for I am the truth.
Lord, I definitely need grace here! I have not always been truthful in my life, and it is a life issue that challenges me to this day. Can you please help me.
Son, when you come to Me, you are transformed by my presence and power. Remember Peter. I told him before hand, that he would deny Me 3 times before the night was over. When you depend on your own strength you always come short. My goal in his life was to bring him to a place of righteousness. My Holy Spirit birthed in him my life, and coupled with his determination, he became a humble servant and testified to the known world at that time, in his circle of influence. Cling to my righteousness, and you will grow the fruit of Truth in your inward parts.
Show me the right path, O Lord; point out the road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me.
I am the Way; as you hear my voice and follow me, you will never falter in the journey. I will insure your safe passage through the storms of life and the uncertainties that lie ahead. I long to give my people the direction they need in life, if only they would come and seek me. Even the smallest concern is my concern. Nothing is too trivial.
Remember, O LORD, your compassion and unfailing love, which you have shown from long ages past. Do not remember the rebellious sins of my youth. Remember me in the light of your unfailing love, for you are merciful, O LORD.
I have loved the world from the beginning. Even when the people took a wrong turn, it was my redemptive love that provided a way back to my presence. You are truly blessed to be born in a country that has known my ways and my paths. It has forgotten my unfailing love, but I will redeem it again. As people seek Me, they will find me. As you have found Me, others will come to the knowledge of the LORD and will follow Me.
For the honor of YOUR NAME O LORD, forgive my many, many sins.
It is my delight to pour grace on the humble of heart. I will cast out no one who comes to me with a hungry heart and soul, no matter what they have been taught, or how they were brought up.
They will live in prosperity, and their children will inherit the land.
Many assume that prosperity is only wealth an riches in the present life. If you could only see what I am preparing for you, you would be encouraged to walk out your faith with great expectancy. You do have hope that will be manifested in the future. You have the down payment of my promise in you right now. My Spirit reveals to you the things that are coming. Endure difficulties and hardship, for these will fade away at the breaking of the Dawn. The NEW DAY of my plan is dawning even now. Prepare to enter in to my promise and find rest for your soul.
Wow. Beautiful Lord, thank You!
The LORD is a friend to those that fear HIM. He teaches them His covenant.
I delight to reveal myself and my ways to him that fears me. Honor and respect grow from the heart. Words spoken from the mouth are not always consistent with the heart. But out of the abundance of the hear, the mouth speaks. When you are pregnant with vision, it will emerge from your heart. I give the blueprint in your heart, and you build the structure when you speak it forth. I am the architect and the designer of the house I am building. Allow Me to complete the project. Follow the blueprint, speak forth the vision, and watch the building come together. These things are not only true in the spiritual sense, but will manifest in the natural. I spoke, and it was so....do you like my design?
O yes, Lord, it is so beautiful. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament shows your handiwork.
Son, this creative ability is the inheritance of the saints. Faith births the vision, and the heart that fears me receives the seed in fertile soil, and as it begins to spring forth, it produces a harvest, and many more seeds along with it. It is a law set forth in the universe. Here on this earth, my Word continues to birth the seeds of the Kingdom. It is in you, in your heart in seed form. As it blossoms and buds, it produces a next generation potentially. As you gather and glean from what has already gone on before you, the NEW will spring forth. Ever NEW. It is my DNA. I bring forth the NEW out from the old. I am never bored.
Teach me more, Lord. Please?
The seed of life is in you son. See the vision, speak forth the vision, and you will see the seed planted in fertile soil, and it will produce, because life is in the seed. My word will not return void. For the generations to come, it will produce a fruitful harvest. Life produces life. Nothing can be produced by the dead, unless they are resurrected! Life begets life. And it will be so from generation to generation forever. Massive reproduction on a universal scale. Can you see it? From one seed, the many, and the multitudes. Unless a seed falls in the ground and dies, it abides alone. But if it dies, it produces abundant fruit, and the fruit remains. This is my will.
Help me then, Lord to plant the seed...
You will learn how to plant seed. And watch for the harvest. Work while it is day. The night is coming. Invest in the seed. Get the good stuff. No cheap imitations. Nothing genetically altered. Seed that has my DNA in it. This is what will produce in others. My DNA. The chaff looks real, but it is deceitful, and full of lies, like its father's DNA. He was a liar from the beginning. Remember 2 trees in the garden. Eat from the tree of life, and speak from this tree. This seed will find fertile soil and produce a harvest. The growing season is shortening. Because of the times. I am patient, and I will cause it to spring forth. Use the means that I give you, and that I will show you. Remember Acts 26:16-18:
“Now get up on your feet! For I have appeared to you to appoint you as my servant and witness. You are to tell the world what you have seen and what I will show you in the future. And I will rescue you from both your own people and from the Gentiles. Yes, I am sending you to the Gentiles to open their eyes, so they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God. Then they will receive forgiveness for their sins and be given a place among God's people who are set apart by faith in ME.” (NLT)
Does this mean that I am to go to the nations?
Yes, son, you have not seen what I will do in the coming days. Draw near to me, and you will see what I will do. Harvest is coming. Prepare for rain. The nations will come to you, and you to them. I will provide the resources, and the way. Don't worry. Get ready. Prepare yourself. Get your house in order. I will show you what to do. You will receive a deposit from messengers that I will send your way. Be prepared. Listen. See. Come to me.

"For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit" (Romans 14:17).
Journal Entry
August 15, 2011
Jym, my Emmaus disciples were so concerned about the times and seasons that they were walking through. They did not see Me during the time that I was opening the scriptures to them, but their hearts were burning within them as I unfolded the revelation of who I am to them. It was not until we sat together at the table and I broke the bread that their eyes were opened to the reality of who I was. This is how it is so often with my people. I am walking with them daily, standing right by their side, but they don't see me, or hear me. Sharing a meal together is a great way to develop intimacy with others. As you learn to grow in me and hear my voice you will learn to develop deeper relationships with others as well. Although the kingdom of God is not in the eating and drinking, for these are only avenues that open the way, real intimacy comes as a result of dialog with Me. The result: righteousness increases, and certainly your peace and joy does too. As you are learning to pursue me, you will develop new friendships and connections. I have many people who are communing with me on a regular basis. All of you need to connect, and I will orchestrate the connections for your good, and my Glory. Learn to rest in Me.
Lord, I want more and more of our people to come to know you, truly and intimately. Please teach me how to see increase in people. Any thoughts here, Lord?
Jym, you are opening a pathway, a portal into my presence. People are so busy doing life, that they rarely open themselves up to me. It is my joy to lead you in this. I will give you ideas and opportunities as you pursue me. Watch me work, in the middle of your relationships. You will be amazed at how I bring the connections together.
