God's Covenent with priests. A warning

Malachi 2 :5-6

“The purpose of my covenant with the Levites was to bring life and peace, and that is what I gave them. This required reverence from them, and they greatly revered me and stood in awe of my name.

They passed on to the people the truth of the instructions they received from me. They did not lie or cheat; they walked with me, living good and righteous lives, and they turned many from lives of sin.

 

You who claim to be prophet or priest!

You who lead and guide!

Do you seek money and ignore the commands of God?

Do you misrepresent my name?

Do you break God's moral law and teach others to do the same?

Your speach is seasoned with salt, yet your heart is far from me.

Turn from your evil ways

Repent of your deeds and seek salvation.

You have led many astray and have filled them with lies and corruption 

You use intimidation, deception and control

Are you not a servant of satan

You have spoken false hope and shattered the dreams of those who trust you

Listen to my words says the Lord of Hosts 

I shall bring ruin and disaster upon those who have led many astray.

Those who have exploited the poor and weak and become rich shall lose everything they own.

They will become the very thing they despise

They will become weak, powerless and alone 

Their deeds will ever be before them 

Make no mistake I shall discipline them says the lord.

I shall rise up from among the remnant a holy and righteous people 

I will fill them with mercy and grace 

And after a time, they will restore you to faith

Yet hear my words, the first shall be last and the last shall be first 

I shall re-order the kingdoms of the earth.

Those who have strength and might shall become weak and powerless

See I have ordered a reversal.

All things will soon be complete 

Amen

Psalm 91 : for those in deep darkness

Psalm 91 

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust." 

Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare and from the deadly pestilence.

He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.

A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.

You will observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. 

If you make the Most High your dwelling-- even the LORD, who is my refuge--

then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent.

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways;

they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

You will tread upon the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. 

"Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

He will call upon me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him.

With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation." 

 

Dear friend,

The Lord Himself has led you to these words because He desires to move you from darkness to light.

You thought you could dip your toe into the darkness and still pull back but it dragged you in completely.

God Himself has seen you, for He planned long ago before the foundation of the earth to bring you from the depths of darkness into His glorious light.

Make no mistake there is an open heaven over you right now, wherever you are, however deep you have gone. 

You have drunk deeply of hell's fountain and have immersed yourself in darkness and have lost your soul ,but God Himself intercedes for you.

Hear what the Lord is saying  to you

I am here with you right now to open the way back to the light.

 Acknowledge that you have tried to carve out your own path and have lost your way. 

I tell you, you are closer to me right now this moment, than you have ever been, for I am right there with you. Ask me to open your eyes and I shall make myself known to you.

I shall speak to you and declare righeousness over you, for you have placed your trust in me.

See, I shall grant to you power from on high. Be true to me and my word and there will come a time when you shall declare my word to the nations. 

The nations are unyeilding as a rock, but see, I shall make you a force to be reckoned with, for my power in all its fullness will work through you.

You shall learn to partner with me. You shall develop the mind of Christ. My thoughts shall be your thoughts. We shall be as one.

I shall grant you a ministry the like of which the world has not seen. 

You shall be a doer of great deeds.

You shall not fear the snake or the scorpion for I have granted you the power to crush them under your feet.

I am moving in your midst says the Lord.

All the earth will see me for I shall make myself known.

You will fear no man, for I have given you a holy boldness that comes with knowing me.

You shall be as bold as a lion but as gentle as a lamb.

You shall embody the heart of the lion of Judah and the heart of the lamb.

Both Justice and Peace shall be you portions says the Lord. 

In the course of time I shall cause you to speak with my voice. 

Through me you shall become a voice that speaks to the kings of the earth.

 Amen

I am your healer and provider

 
And it is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him. Hebrews 11:6 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/heb.11.6.NLt
 
 
My child,
 
I am the God who created the heavens and the earth.  
 
I spoke and the world sprang forth
 
It is I who set the planets in their orbits and encircle the sphere of the earth with clouds.
 
You are majestic and awesome o lord.
 
You are high and lifted up
 
You are creator, redeemer and baptiser.  
 
I chose you to be my friend before the foundation of the earth and
 
I shall provide says the lord
 
I shall be with you says the lord
 
I shall move among you  
 
And cause great fear to come among the enemies of God  
 
These coming days shall prove to be of great value for you.  
 
For I shall fashion a new thing in you  
 
No longer shall hardship or lack be evident in your life
 
There shall be a harvest the like of which you cannot perceive or imagine
 
Souls shall come to you, they shall arrive in droves
 
Amen

Six Days

My child 

I am the Lord 

I am the light of the world 

It was I who fashioned the photon.

Yes, it was I who made light 

It was I who fashioned the heavens and the earth by my very words

I spoke and it was so

It was I who fashioned the animals and birds 

I made them in their vast array

It was I who made man to be body and soul and spirit.

But the serpent fooled the man I had made and stole his dominion

Lucifer that vial serpent decieved all of mankind with hate and discord  

The world became devoid of my light and shunned my countenance.

I became grieved that I had made man and so I opened the floodgates of the deep.

Be ready and prepared for there will come a day when all things will be complete and I shall gather all things to myself.

Heaven and earth will pass away and I will fashion a new earth and a new heaven.

Keep your lamp lit

Let my bride be ready says the Lord

A great feast is prepared and ready the guest list has been prepared 

Believe me when I say that you are called to be there 

Your seat and place are ready for you  

Be sure to respond for I have sent your invitation

I am your guide for I light the way for you 

Come, answer me quickly, for tomorrow may be too late

The time to respond is now for yesterday is gone and tomorrow may never arrive 

Answer my call, today, this very hour

Amen

Israel a valley of dry bones : Ezekiel 37

God's own people lay dry and barren 

Flesh has worn away 

Only dry bones remain

But you Son of Man prophesy and speak words of regeneration to this once powerful kingdom

Speak life and growth into this valley of the dead 

See I am the Lord of the living and the dead 

Of father and son 

Of mother and daughter

Speak to the wind and command breath to enter these dusty worn out bones 

And low I saw the four winds gather and blow across the ground into the valley of death

The dead became living beings once more 

A vast army fit for battle and warfare 

Let the training commence 

Let sword and shield and buckler be fashioned 

Let each man carry his own 

Let each man serve

Surely I shall bless and not curse

Look upon the clouds and see the heavenly host in their vast array 

Horses and chariots and riders

Be amazed at their appearence 

For they gleam like lightening

Swift to respond and deadly to the enemies of God 

They are waiting for the trumpet to sound the battle cry

The time is coming 

Soon they will make their move 

A host of angels ready for war

Do not be dismayed for the Lord of heavens armies is alive

All his host ready for war 

Come let the the battle cry be heard across the land 

Let those with ears to hear and eyes to see understand and know

Be ready I shall come as swift as a gazelle at full sprint 

You will not know the day or the hour 

I am patient, waiting for the word from my Lord the King of heaven

Be ready for war against the enemies of God  

Amen

“I am a voice shouting in the wilderness, ‘Clear the way for the Lord’s coming!’” John the Baptist

 John has long since passed away, taken from jail and beheaded

But the cry still stands, who shall point to the risen Christ

There are still people living in a barren wilderness

Tell me who shall speak to them.

And behold He shall make you fishers of men

Who shall pull them from an ocean and sea full of sharks and wolves

'Hear I am send me', comes the cry

Shall you take up the mantle of John and call out to the lost in the wilderness

He the immortal, invisible God only wise has come among you

When you secure the lost from death and the grave

Indeed, is God calling you to speak to sharks and wolves and alter their makeup

Only the wonder working power of the Alimighty God can change a shark to a lion or a wolf to a lamb

Yet do you hear the call of God upon your life

It's a tough challenge I know, but God came so that you can know His power working within you

Both the shark and the wolf live among you

You know them by their deeds and their fruit.

Tell me who shall speak to them. No, indeed it is the powerful working of the deeds of God that shall speak to them not fine words or arguments

God is about to move among you

He shall bring mighty acts and deeds such that niether the shark nor the wolf will be able to deny the awesome power of the living God

And they will turn from their ways and worship the one true living God.

The shark shall become like a lion


and the wolf like a lamb

Niether shall devour the other, for they shall lay down in the hay together

Amen

So the Word became human

So the Word became human
 
He is the Almighty God made flesh
 
Never before has He lived in bodily form among us
 
It was He who spoke and stars sprang into space
 
It was through His power that the sea were rent asunder and water turned to wine
 
It is He who is the Bridegroom and He is waiting for His bride to be ready
 
I am in awe of His deeds for it was He that fashioned me in my mother's womb
 
He was slain before I was ever conceived
 
Yet He the immortal, invisible God only wise lived among us
 
He is calling unto mankind to be adopted into His own special family
 
And He gave up human form to secure our destiny
 
No more is a man destined for the flames of hell
 
But He has bought back the keys to death and grave
 
He is Lord of the living and the dead
 
Be amazed for your destiny and dominion are secure in Him
 
And He desires to offer it to you without cost
 
Reach out to Him today and see if He does not pour out blessing upon blessing into your life
 
He is not difficult to find
 
Nor did He hide Himself away
 
But His presence is within arms reach
 
Let Him grasp hold of your hand today and guide you into your best future
 
For He loves His creation
 
He is alive!
 
Come to me and live says the Lord.
 
Come to me and let me drive away the sin and shame
and usher in righteousness and peace
 
Amen

God sent a man, John the Baptist clothed in rags to point the way

I cannot tell you how I feel about Christ

He was before me and shall be after me

I am in awe of His mighty deeds

He spoke and creation sprang to life

In the beginning, there was nothing, but He the risen Saviour spoke light into the world

Now the tongue has the creative power to build up or tear down

Both life and death come through the tongue

John baptised with water for repentance, but He the risen Christ baptises with fire

He shall burn away everything that is unworthy of Him

Yet more than that the old creation with its shame and drudgery has gone and a new creation stands in its place

Let your joy be complete

Let your soul find a new path

Let Him be your guide and light

He the living God lives inside of you

His creative power is given in full measure

Come to Him and He will make you fishers of men

Yet even now He is asking the Father for blessed power to embolden you

Come close to Him He is not far away

Within arms reach.

Nor does He hide Himself away but stands like a beacon in your midst behind a veil of light for He is light, the light of all men

You see dimly now but soon you shall see in glorious clarity

Cast off your outer garments of pain and sorrow and put the clothing

of joy and peace

Amen

In the beginning the Word already existed

I am the everliving One 

I lived among you

I died but behold I am Alive forever

I was and I am and I am to come 

It was I who created the heavens and the earth

I formed the Sun, the Moon and the starry host

I am always seeking the best for creation

It is I who formed man out of the dust of the earth 

It is I who have numbered the days of man for he rebelled 

Therefore make a good account 

For all men will be judged 

Was it not I who arose and defeated death and hades

 

Behold the grave could not hold Him

For he lives from eternity to eternity

He lives forever more

Was He not the Righteous One who tore the veil in two 

So that sinners could be cleansed and enter the most Holy place

 

Behold I shall make my presence known to all mankind 

Men will be without doubt or excuse for I shall make it plain

I shall appear with righteous justice 

Yet I am patient not wanting men to be destroyed by the flames of hell

Come let me minister to you 

Let me wash your filthy garments and cleanse you 

Let blind eyes see 

Let deaf ears be opened 

Let the lame walk

Let the beggars become rich 

Let lepers be made whole

 

Do you not know?

Have you not heard?

 

He has conqured death 

He purchased man's dominon by His own blood and now offers it back without cost

Do not be alarmed for He is the prince of heavens armies 

His chariots are ablaze with light and are leading His angels in a battle against the forces of this dark world.

Do you not see the heavenly host encamped around you? 

 

Be amazed at His outpouring in these days for He both provides and ministers to those that are His own 

Come into His presence with thanksgiving and courts with praise 

For He desires to bless you with everything planned for you since the beginning

Seek Him today for nobody knows the day or the hour when all will come to completion

 For I tell you now its the day and hour to seek the Lord of Lords and King of Kings

He is not beyond reach 

Simply offer your hand and He shall take it and guide you to your best future 

For I tell you obedience to his will is key.

You need not fear the day or the hour for you have been cleansed and made righteous in His sight.

And even now He intercedes for you in the courts of heaven.

Remember He is Alive for evermore 

None can snatch you away from His grasp 

No evil can take your joy away for you are complete in Him

Amen
