               Prepare For Change

A storm is brewing and the winds are howling.
Prepare for change, My people,
prepare like never before.
Don't be caught unaware;
prepare for change and new developments.

The winds that come will stir things up 
and then blow things away.
The time of consecration is now.
Cast away all your dead works and old habits 
that do not please Me.
I am the Lord your God--
set your face like flint, 
keep your focus on Me.

Begin to love again and bear the fruit of the Spirit.
Look past their fault and see their need.
Treat them in the same way that I, the Lord, treat you.

Remember I am coming for a bride without spot or wrinkle.
I want a relationship with you--not religious rituals.
I need you to love and worship Me with your whole heart.
I will pour out more of My Spirit,
but I will not pour it into old wine skins 
that cannot contain the anointing.

I am about to do a new thing in your life.
Don't you hear the sound of the wind?
Take off the blindfold that the enemy has placed on you.
and prepare for the change that I desire to work within you.
