DO YOU WANT ME MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE?

Many prophecies have been given concerning the power and the great outpouring that is about to be poured out on my church. Yes, many of these words are true. However, this outpouring and the coming glory with power will only be for those who have allowed me to be prepared. (Psalm 51)

Many of you are claiming this word and that prophecy for themselves. But have you allowed my to bring truth to your innermost being? (Psalm 51: 6,7) Have you allowed me to cleanse you and fill you with my Spirit? Have you allowed me to show you MY ways? (Isaiah 58:6-9) Many of my people think they know much and have more power that they really have. Why? Because of pride, deception and denial.

I look and see my people focusing on ministry, money, power, their own programs and agendas -- but where is your focus suppose to be? Always on me -- always seeking my face, looking to me to work through you -- not with you. If I cannot show you my ways than you are not ready for the coming glory and power that is beginning to be released on my true church.

What must I do you ask? First, put on a cloak of humility. (1 Pet. 5:5) Second, lay down YOUR gold. Lay down everything that is more important to you than me -- then I will become your Gold. (Job 22:21-30) Then, sit and rest at my feet and worship Me in Spirit and in truth. (John 4:23)

I want to trust many, many, many with my glory and my power, but I will only give it to those who are of a broken spirit and contrite heart. (Psalm 51:16,17)

There is still time to seek me!
