                     The Power of Your Word

The glory that I gave to My Son has been given to you. At the moment
of salvation, that glory is made available to you, from your heart to
your lips. It is the work of My love. By none other can you be saved.
Your spoken word can be manifested in your flesh. It is by the will
of God first, and then of your own.

You must confess salvation before men, for it seals your faith and your
heart, and it releases all of what My Son did for you. Religion can't
accomplish that in your life. The fullness of your salvation comes from
My hand and My heart, and it comes through My Son Who was made flesh.
There was a portal between man and God that had to be bridged. My Son
crossed that portal and defeated the enemy; through Him your enemy is
thoroughly defeated.

Your adversary holds the power of the tongue by capturing hearts. He
blinds eyes so that people can only perceive darkness--but My love can
pierce this darkness. Speak the word of My love, for it brings light
to those hearts that have only known darkness. A heart that has been
imprisoned this way yearns for release; it yearns for an end to
emptiness, and it yearns for the fullness of the love of God.

You can pray to this end, for it is My will. My Son did not come to
condemn, but to save. The condemned condemn themselves and detest it.
As the thickness of darkness increases in a person's life, their need
to be saved from that darkness also increases. That need causes them
to desire to be set free, and My Holy Spirit will increase the
intensity of that desire in their hearts.

The enemy doesn't limit his deception to the lost; he is also working
on My church, trying to get them to relax so they will not respond to
the last wave of My Holy Spirit. He tries to give the sheep what they
want instead of what they need, tricking them to focus on religion
so they won't change the world by My love. He lulls some of My own to
sleep, hoping that they will be surprised and caught off guard by what
is about to transpire in the final days.

I am not done; My work is not complete. The greatest move of My Holy
Spirit is yet to come; it is at the door. I will reveal Who I am before
I send My Son. Wake up, My people, for those who sleep will not hear the
knock; those who slumber in a stupor are not sensitive to what My Spirit
is doing in these days. The demonic bonds that bind the sleepers in My
church must be broken. I do not desire for My church to sit on their pews
and be fed with milk; I desire that My Church be equipped. I desire that
My church be sent and go in My authority to set captives free, and I
desire that My church bring back a good report that even the demons obey
her.

The glory that I gave to My Son has been given to My church, that they
might walk in it and speak forth the word of My love.
