 			CRY OUT FOR ME

Join in.  Do not be afraid to enter into My presence in a new and profound 
way.  Enter in with praise and thanksgiving, and let out a victory shout
for all I am doing in your midst.  For yes, I am a warrior, and I have 
placed in you My warring spirit that you may trample down the enemy.  As 
you praise Me and worship Me, you are pulling down the strongholds of the
enemy that are over your area.

So gather together, and do not be afraid to enter into My presence in a 
new and profound way.  For this is the day where I will rend the heavens 
and come down if you humble yourselves before Me and cast off all pride 
and complacency.  Seek My face and not my hand, and I will bless you with 
treasures from My heart of grace.  Yes, I have promised you prosperity and
health if you put My kingdom first and not yours.  Yes, if you seek Me 
and My righteousness, all these things will be added unto you.

I know the desires of your heart.  I know the yearning of your spirit to 
come up higher.  For there are angels in your midst.  Allow them to show 
you the way to even come up higher.  And yes, it is through the door of 
worship that you enter in.  Do not let anything hinder you.  Cast off 
anything that would try to hold you back for I have made you to delight 
in My presence, and your chief joy is to worship Me.  Do not let the enemy 
rob you for he knows how important it is for My people to enter in and 
worship.  That is why he causes strife and disunity among My people and 
also division and deception.  If he can keep My people tripped up in these 
snares, he can hinder the breakthrough of My Spirit coming forth.  But do 
not be of those that allow this in My midst.  Be free in Me and enter in.

Seek My face, and I will fill you with grace and truth.  I will fill you 
to overflowing with My joy for you need My strength to enter in and prevail 
against the attack of the enemy to hinder My Spirit coming forth.  Press 
in for breakthrough like never before.  Groan before Me.  Prevail against 
the enemy by humbling yourself before Me.  Cry out for mercy and My great 
grace.  Cry out for hunger for My presence that I may set you free from 
the snare of complacency.  Do not settle for less than the best.  Press in 
for My glory, and I will pour it out upon you.  Do not assume that it will 
come without you crying out for it.

How desperate are you for a move of My Spirit?  Do you want more of Me in
your midst?  Then show Me the yearning of your heart.  And if you feel 
nothing, then cry out to Me out of desperation that I will set you free.  
For I do not want to see any of My people miss out on what I am going to 
do.  For I will pour out My power, and I will pour out My glory, and 
through My people it will come.  Out of broken and desperate hearts it 
will flow.  

Like the alabaster box....unless it is broken open, the fragrance cannot 
flow forth.  So I say to you this day to humble yourself before Me.  Cry 
out to Me.  Be real, and let Me know you want Me to come, and I will, 
says your God.
