The Timing of the Lord
-----

For the past few months I have felt things in my spirit that I had not felt in years. I think this is due to the timing of the Spirit. It is a time that God would have those who are His to understand that the time for dragging your feet is over. It is time to forcefully put away the things of the world and to take up the things of the Spirit. We will no longer be allowed to sleep away the time. In the months to come you will begin to see a widening gap between the world and the Church. Many will be drawn to the Lord through the miraculous. The miraculous will be commonplace. The Word of the Lord will become widespread. Those who do not go the way of the Lord will have no excuse because the way will be made plain to them.

It is time that we rise up, shake off the slumber and go forth to do the will of the Lord. God will not allow one foot to remain on the land. You have to step in the water with both feet in order for the will of the Lord to be done. (Read what happened when the priests placed their feet on the water of the Jordan river. Joshua 3:9-Joshua 4:24.)

It is very important that we be unified. The enemy cannot stand against you when you are agreed. God wants to begin to reveal His Word to you but He must have your attention. As soon as YOU begin to seek HIM He will reveal Himself to you. He says, “Call unto Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things that you know not!” (Jeremiah 33:3) There are things that you do not understand that the Lord will give you revelation (rhema) knowledge of when you begin to seek Him. There has been a veil over the eyes of your understanding in the past but that will no longer be so. The Holy Spirit will be your teacher and He will show you things that you need to know. He will reveal the will of the Father to you.

Children will begin to minister with power under the unction of the Holy Spirit. Even very young children. God is raising up very young children who will walk in the prophetic. We are to nurture these little ones and protect them from the devices of the enemy. The attacks on the schools has been an attempt of the enemy to destroy these little ones. Those who are of humble hearts will be willing to receive these little ones. Begin to listen as the Lord ministers through them. They will not say, 'thus sayeth the Lord' nevertheless the Lord will speak. Listen.'

Your sister in Christ,
