                     The Master Plan

I have great plans laid out for you because you are Mine. The plans 
are too large and too extensive for man to complete in his own 
strength, or in human zeal. Only I have can sculpt them and only I 
must make them--then it will be that all the glory must be Mine. 

I am choosing a people with strength, back bone, strong arms, and 
strong faith. I am choosing a people who are already pressing into 
the things of God, for themselves and for the kingdom to come. Do not 
forget the master plan. Do not forget My purposes. These will be 
strategies for the future; My word in your heart will ignite the 
"Zeal of the Lord" in you My people.  

Take up the biggest weapon and hold tightly to it, for the Sword is 
the Word, and you must digest and swallow the Word. It will be your 
food in the desert places, it will be like manna. I will give you 
your portion daily, and by it you shall live. 

Those in despair will see you overcoming much, and will say, "How is 
it that a destitute people flourish in drought and a small people 
consume the large?" These people will witness all things. They will 
witness My people in victory, they will arise and look in the distance. 
Then they will turn to one another and declare, "This God is Mighty-- 
we have not seen anything like this before." Then you will give Me 
the glory for all these things.
