fluttering, woke up dreamed it again and it happened two
more times waking and then dreaming again the exact same
thing - then I read this:
The Father says today that I am pleased that you choose to
tread My courts. I am so pleased that you are inquiring of
Me this day. You have come before My throne and you will
not leave empty handed or disappointed. Out of the unseen
and into the seen I will pour out My favor upon you. From
the eternality of My throne I will pour out upon you the
temporality of My goodness in the situation you now find
yourself in. You will taste and see the reality and
substance of My goodness laid up in store in your behalf.
You will know your prayers are heard and that the answers
you sought for and petitioned for did not go unheeded. So
open your mouth wide and I will fill it. I hover over you
like the mother bird hovering over her young in the nest. I
will fill you and feed you with My promise and My goodness
as you cry out to Me.
I am the God who rewards. I reward those who know that I am
and that I am one who recompenses those who diligently seek
My face. The testimony of My Spirit is the testimony of My
faithfulness and My watch care over those that belong to
Me. Choose this day to be a representative and a voice
advocating for My goodness to those that have been lied to
and to whom I have been misrepresented. For centuries men
have maligned the testimony of the cross and depicted Me as
an austere and heartless despot hurling lighting bolts on
hapless victims. Go out and testify of My love and mercy
and goodness. Know that I will back you up with signs and
wonders to attest to My true nature. Step away from the
dark religious overtones of false thinking and open your
mouth and your heart to declare just who I am and what I
have done for all mankind upon the cross to bless and to
benefit and forgive!
Looked like this!
Came across this song from 1968 - White Bird

Stop hiding my heart from my children sons and daughters of light for I AM your defense and my spirit takes no offense.
So challenge the adversary with the Virtue of My love My Children for you carry The Heart of an Overcomer for I have already overcome the world for all mankind.
My Heart trusts My Love for The Father of Mercies gave Me Grace to give to you endlessly. . . and such is My Love for ALL of you !
1 Corinthians 13:1-8
Love: The Superior Way
13 If I speak human or angelic languages
but do not have love,
I am a sounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
If I have the gift of prophecy
and understand all mysteries
and all knowledge,
and if I have all faith
so that I can move mountains
but do not have love, I am nothing. 3
And if I donate all my goods to feed the poor,
and if I give my body in order to boast[a]
but do not have love, I gain nothing. 4
Love is patient, love is kind.
Love does not envy,
is not boastful, is not conceited, 5
does not act improperly,
is not selfish, is not provoked,
and does not keep a record of wrongs. 6
Love finds no joy in unrighteousness
but rejoices in the truth. 7
It bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things.8
Love never ends.
But as for prophecies,
they will come to an end;
as for languages, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will come to an end.
So challenge the adversary with the Virtue of My love My Children for you carry The Heart of an Overcomer for I have already overcome the world for all mankind.

Your days are coming to a close ,

You've come around the corner ,

backed off the enemies intentions and their view ,
for now you walk in my hand ,
and all you gain to see,
is my perfect will for all humanity ,
so in each step you witness ,
no longer will you see ,
the shadow of your youth but only me ,
for in this new adventure you'll never be alone ,
I've placed on you my crown and seated you by my throne ,
The Crown ?! "The Overcomer " for you have walked right through ,
all the obstacles I've placed in front of you ,
and now the ark is open to your total view ,
so partake of this hidden manna I now have given you ,
my name is on your heart for it's no longer just a stone ,
but a supple feather I now can call my own ,
so take what I have given you and soar up in the air ,
for the view that you now see holds no dispair ,
but contains my promises for you and all mankind ,
And this is your view my Rainbow Divine ...
Rev 2:17
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth [it].
Proverbs 3:3-5 3 Let love and faithfulness never leave you;( receive it )
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart. ( Love and Faithfullness )
4 Then you will win favor and a good name ( Love and Faithfullness )
in the sight of God and man.

and lean not on your own understanding;
2016 - The Year the Jonah Spirit is Pruned from the
Church!
Last May the Lord spoke to me and said prepare for the
‘Summer of the 10 Spies’. I felt Him saying that the
atmosphere of the nation would be charged with doubt,
unbelief, fear, reports of impending disaster,
conflict, and in general doom and gloom. This would be
fueled by the news media and even fanned by believers
and those in the body of Christ with an Old Covenant
model of prophecy
However the Lord declared, I want my people to be of a
‘different spirit’ to pick up the mantle of ‘Joshua
and Caleb’ and declare “But GOD”. It was not a denial
that ‘there are giants’ in our land, that is true,
nevertheless we are not to see ourselves as
‘grasshoppers’ but as the people of God, empowered by
Holy Spirit and favored by our Father who desires us
to take back the land and recover the inheritance!
This Christmas I felt the Lord saying that this will
be the year that He will expose the “Jonah” spirit
that much the prophetic in the body of Christ have
been weaned on. Jonah was angry, bitter, judgmental,
and self-focused. He wanted God to judge Nineveh and
give them what they deserve and yet he knew God was
merciful and full of compassion and would forgive and
forestall any judgment if the people of Nineveh turned
to Him, this was to a nation that was not in covenant
with Him, idolaters, and Gentile’s. We all know the
story and how Jonah was frustrated and bitter that his
prophecy of Judgment did not come to pass due to the
Ninevites turning to God, that he was upset that the
gourd that was shading him died and left him in the
hot sun. The Lord rebuked him that he had more
compassion for the gourd, his own comfort and agenda
than even the children or livestock of Nineveh.
We are called not to model the prophets of the law of
Moses we are to model the Lord Jesus who is the very
Spirit of Prophecy! Moses does not bring us into the
land, our Joshua does, Y’shua, Jesus! Jonah’s message
was repent or judgment, however the Lord gave us a
prophetic mandate to declare repent, the Kingdom of
God is here! A kingdom of love, joy, peace and
righteousness confirmed with signs and wonders and the
miraculous. A judgmental, sin focused, finger
pointing, powerless, church will not take back this
nation. An advancing, mountain taking, troop, with the
spirit of Joshua and Caleb, filled with the
unconditional love, grace and mercy of our Father,
bringing down the giants of deception and bondage,
with a message that His heart for us is one “Hope, a
future, prosperity, and blessing”, a heart desire for
His children to indeed inherit the land!
The United States of America is not a Nineveh, though
it is not perfect, we are a sheep nation, we have a
covenant foundation that was birthed with the colonial
battle cry of “No King but King Jesus”. God’s heart is
not angry and against America. If He loved Nineveh how
much more does He love this nation that has sent more
missionaries and birthed more of the greatest moves of
God in redemptive history!
This is the year to throw off the ‘Jonah mantle’ and
put the “zeal of the Lord” on as a mantle (IS. 9:7)
and declare the “acceptable year of the Lord” (IS.
61:2), His Jubilee! We are now in the 7oth Jubilee
year since Joshua and the Israelites crossed over the
Jordan and into their inheritance. I believe this is
the year that the Lord wants His 3rd day people to
“arise and shine”(IS. 60:1) as His glory fills the
temple, made not of brick and mortar but of “precious
living stones” (1 PET. 2:5), filling this nation His
message of the gospel of the Kingdom. A prophetic
message of amazing grace, mercy, total forgiveness of
and deliverance from sin, restoration to Father God,
healing, and freedom confirmed with signs, wonders,
and miracles.
A people who believe the report of the 10 spies will
be filled with doubt, fear, unbelief, criticalness and
negativism. They will not possess the faith, hope, and
confidence of Joshua and Caleb who declared “but our
God is able”, they will not believe God wants to use
them to do the miraculous and take back this nation!
We are not of the prophetic mold of Jonah, ours is a
different spirit, one that believes our God wants to
give us our inheritance and in this Year of Jubilee,
2016-5776, he wants us to recover all, to possess this
land, take back what has been stolen and truly reap
the full benefit of the debt cancellation that Jesus
purchased on the cross.
This is the year that the prophetic, in this nation,
will have the Jonah spirit pruned away as unfruitful
and destructive, we are instructed in Romans it is
“the Kindness of God leads us to repentance” (ROM.
2:4). The prophetic voice of the New Covenant is an
encouraging voice, one that is filled with the faith
and declaration of the Good News of the Kingdom of
God, and with an anointing that declares and
demonstrates “The acceptable year of the Lord”!

The Father says today that faith is a science. There is no contradiction between science and faith. Faith can be found out as surely as a single celled creature can be discovered in microscope. Faith is not blind. Faith is the only thing that actually sees. Determine this day to be a creature of inquiry. I formed your mind to question and to seek out truth. Know that all of life around you is declaring My glory. Every atom and every molecule is crying out glory and praise to My name. This earth is Mine. This earth and this universe in all its fullness is My domain and I have given you authority to subdue it and have dominion. Be a creature of dominion this day. Move into the jurisdiction of heaven. You are My child and the signet ring of My promise is on your hand.
Make declaration in your life saying "that will be enough of that!" Strife will cease. Peace will come. Sorrow will flee away. Rejoicing will be heard in your land. Lack will disappear as the deep treasuries of My favor and provision fill up every deficit in your life. This is what "as in heaven - so in earth" looks like. I have put you in your life as I put Adam in the garden. You have jurisdiction and authority. The angels stand ready to act on your words of acknowledge and confidence. Make your edicts of blessing as I commanded Abraham so I command you to go and bless others even as I bless you this day with every good thing that you have need of.

So encouraged when find or hear things that bring clarity or reinforce what I have been meditating on. Saw a Kari Jobe youtube video where she was exhorting worshipers prior to singing from Psalm 32. She spoke of verse 7 where the Psalmist declares 'God is my hiding place'...I have read these words many times but never before did I realize the connection with the dream of three turtles! The more with depend on God instead of trying to hide in our self effort or strength thee closer, more intimate with Him we become. Then listened to an excellent teaching of Amanda Cook of Bethel on Intimacy... she looked at John 4....the woman at the well, a Samaritan, such h a powerful chapter!

Wheel within a wheel:
You are right to diligently seek me, for this is my greatest desire for you and all my creation that they would desire to know me as i desire to know and be with them even as a husband would be with his wife.
The two shall become one flesh. The time has come. The time is now here for the two in one to be revealed upon the Earth. The time of all things to come, the climax of the ages is here.
I am fundamentally bringing forth my purposes in your life. I am bringing forth my divine plans of why I made you and you will know Me and everlasting Joy will be upon your heard. It is time to reveal, it it time to make known the secrets and mysteries of God on the Earth.
Do not be afraid to come as close as you want. I want you to come closer and closer until my voice reverberates in you and your thoughts line up with my thoughts. My will, will be done in Earth (you) as it is heaven. A wheel within a wheel you are. My living creatures are being lifted up above the Earth, and my wheels on Earth will move in unison with my living creatures in heaven.
A people of destiny have come forth as that wheel within a wheel. The time of the Bride and Bridegroom is upon the Earth. The Bride is coming forth from the wilderness leaning upon her beloved. She is walking now in the midst of the vineyard ready to bring forth a people who will be ready for the marriage supper of the lamb.
A bride has made herself ready and she is now permitted to wear the white garment that has been prepared for her. She will stand in the midst of my people to shine forth my Glory. She will walk in the midst of the Earth for her light will expel the darkness.
A day of divine interruption has come, the earth’s travail is about full, the sons and daughters of God are arising in this hour to take their place as the wheel within a wheel. My Glory will be seen throughout the Earth through a people made ready for my end time purposes.
A fire is burning in them. The fire of my pure holy love. A people arrayed in battle gear to subdue the Earth with the Glory and knowledge of the One True God and Jesus Christ he has sent.
A new day is breaking forth. The Kingdom age is dawning in our midst. The midnight hour has come and the wise have come into the feast and are eating from the tree of life and drinking from the river of life in the midst of my garden.
All things are now ready, the divine transfiguration of my people has come. Now my bride, my kingdom people, are arising and shining for their light has come and my glory shall be seen upon them.
They have arisen with healing in their wings. They have been planted by the river of life. Like fruitful trees their leaves will bring forth healing to the nations. The time has come. The time is here for all things to be made new. The old has passed away and is passing away, for behold I make all things new.
The fire of my Holy Love is burning in the hearts of those who have diligently made me their resting place. My love is overwhelming those who have entered and now live in the Secret Place of the Most High God.
They have entered into the true Sabbath rest I have reserved for the true people of God. The 7th day rest is dawning and in that dawn the world is shaking like never before. My judgments have come to judge that which is mine and that which belongs to the enemy.
What is mine will pass through the fire, what is the enemies will burn up and be thrown along with him in the lake of fire for 1000 years.
I am calling you now into the deep of the fire of my Holy flames. You are going to dance in the midst of the flames. You are going to sing in the midst of the flames. You are going to be kept safe in my flames in the hour that has come upon the world.
You are my own ones. You are my anointed ones. You are my sister, my bride, so let us go now and leap upon the mountains of spices together, for there I will give you my love even more fully. Rejoice oh barren land you have become a fruitful city, the city of our God, The New Jerusalem is here.

Many of My people are now entering the year of the full circle. You are being brought back to the point of your spiritual beginning. Your obedience and faithfulness has brought you back to the point of origin, the place of beginning and of being. Your spiritual journey has now brought you full circle and into a place of becoming one with Me. This process has qualified you to receive the rewards of your journey, and it will also allow you a new freedom from those things behind you. You may now begin a new spiritual journey into this season of light. Enjoy the journey.
SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by MARSHA BURNS:
The tests that you have endured in recent weeks have prepared you to be stronger than you thought you could be. In all that you have overcome you will find greater clarity that ever. This strength and clarity will serve you well in your spiritual progression. Rejoice in your victory, says the Lord. Habakkuk 3:18 Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
I am your fierce protector says the Lord. I will form a hedge of protection around you. I will make the crooked places straight. Come unto Me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. Put away your childish ways for they no longer benefit you. I am always out there, putting Myself out on a limb for you. I will make smooth your pathways. Rivers in the desert will you see. Heaven and earth will fade, but My word will still remain and I will do something New today. Rejoice saints for I have the perfect plan crafted out for your life. Rejoice in Me for it is I who will give you the victory.
You are not defective !
The Father says today that I have made you and you are not defective. You are not deficient in any way. You are a master work of the Master's hand. Every cell of your body was forged by My predetermination that you might come forth into the earth and reflect My glory. Every tissue of your body was designed to maintain and sustain you until every good gift and every plan that I have for you is fully made manifest. The enemy wants to interfere but know this - in your confidence and trust in Me the strategies of hell are turned back. There is no failure. There is no loss. Lack and deprivation come to an end. Lay hold on this truth and nurture your beleaguered soul on this reality that I purpose that you find in Me today. |
Fret not beloved. Refuse to enter into fear or waste your vitality and energy on worry and anxiety. Anxiety is not justified in your life for I am with you. Feel inside yourself the weight of My glory. Know that your confidence is not mere bluster or vain desperation. Come unto Me. Allow Me to enfold you in Myself that you might know that I am in you and you are in Me. Failure is not an option. The usurpation of the enemy in your mind and emotion is ending now. Confidence and trust are coming forth. You are realizing this day that you are the work of My hand and you are not deficient nor defective in any way. The truth is setting you free and you are entering into the rest of God.
THE SEASON OF BARRENNESS HAS ENDED, IT’S TIME FOR THE “SUDDEN BLOOM”
January 18, 2016
In April last year the Lord began speaking to me a lot about birthing in the spirit and about pushing through discouragement to birth your promise. There have been many ‘false starts’, many ‘labour pains’ and some birthing, but the journey for many has still been difficult and long.
As we crossed over in 2016, I noticed a sudden acceleration in the natural. A lot of people around me that I know, that have had trouble in falling pregnant, suddenly falling pregnant. Miraculous pregnancies happening defying the odds and impossible circumstances and surprise pregnancies and all due in the same month. I was hearing testimony after testimony all around me of pregnancy and birthing.
I realised that the Lord was highlighting a theme in all of these testimonies and I felt the Lord say that “the season of barrenness has ended. I am breaking the barrenness”.
The Lord went on to speak to me about this season being a season of the implantation of life and hope again. The season of birthing. The season of barrenness being ended and the time for the ‘sudden bloom’ to come forth. Wombs would open in the natural, supernaturally, but also that the Lord is LOOKING for the barren areas in the lives of His people and He is breaking the barrenness to bring SUDDEN BLOOM.
This morning I kept hearing Isaiah 54:1 going over and over in my heart:
Sing of Barren one, you who did not bear; break forth into singing and cry aloud, you who did not travail with child! For the children of the desolate one will be MORE than the children of the married wife, says the Lord. (Isaiah 54:1)
In the place of deeper intimacy the Lord is aligning His people and highlighting the power of DECLARATION to see the grip of barrenness shifted. I believe we are in a season where we are going to see barrenness in physical bodies and in natural circumstances, any area that has been barren SUDDENLY turned around and a BLOOMING of FRUIT suddenly BREAK FORTH on a SCALE we have NEVER seen before. CORPORATE BLOSSOMING is upon us!!!
“The season has changed, the bondage of your barren winter has ended and the season of hiding is over and gone, the rains have soaked the earth and left it bright with blossoming flowers. The season of pruning the vines has arrived. I hear the voting of doves in our land. Filling the air with songs to awaken you and guide you forth. Can you not discern this new day of destiny breaking forth around you? The early signs of My purposes and plans are bursting forth, THE BUDDING VINES OF NEW LIFE ARE NOW BLOOMING EVERYWHERE. The fragrance of flowers whispers.. “THERE IS CHANGE IN THE AIR. ARISE, my love, my beautiful companion, and run with me to the higher place, for now is the time to arise and come away with Me.” – Song of Songs 2:12-13 (The Passion Translation)
The barren areas of many lives has been causing many to ‘pull back’ and to ‘hide’ in fear, in weariness, discouragement and doubt of whether the promise will over come to pass. Whether the barrenness will ever break. I declare to you today that God is BREAKING barrenness and turning your barren season into the season where you will see a SUDDEN BLOOMING of fruit. A SUDDEN blooming of fruit! The VERY barren areas of your life are about to OVERFLOW and OVERFLOW and OVERFLOW. Align your mouth with the truth of His Word, DECLARE His truth, for you about to sing with joy at the SUDDEN BLOOMING upon you! All things are being made new again!
“Sarah’s faith embraced the miracle power to conceive even though she was barren and was past the age of childbearing, for the authority of her faith rested in the One who made the promise, and she tapped into His faithfulness.” (Hebrews 11:11 – The Passion Translation)
The giants of impossibility that have screamed in the land of barrenness all around you are about to hear the authority of His Word in your declaration and CRUMBLE in Jesus name. Tap into His faithfulness through your faith!! Don’t give up on the Word He has given you over your barren land. Your barren land is meeting BREAKING POINT, and once the BREAKTHROUGH happens, it will not be a long dry wasteland of waiting for the fruit to grow, in many areas there will be a sudden accelerated blooming.
The very things that have been hidden, shut off and inaccessible are now being opened, the are being released to the people of God for SUCH A TIME AS THIS!!!!
As the sudden bloom appears and the ancient doors continue to open, the people of God are being positioned through their declaration for OVERFLOW!!! It’s been a trickle here and there such a long time, but the time has come to go IN OVER YOUR HEAD. OVERFLOW!!!!!! OVERFLOW!! LONG AWAITED OVERFLOW!!!!!!
things to teach you, so you may reach into your destiny.
I am waiting for you to quiet yourself so you may sense
when I want to speak with you. To fill you with the desire I have
created for you.
Watch for me and I will be found. I have hidden secrets and promises in
open places so you can find them. Continue to seek after me. Do not
be surprised in what I reveal to you. Stand afresh in the wash of me.
I will cleanse you and anoint you with myself. I will flow through and
over you abundantly. Listen for me at all times and you will begin to find me.

“And I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred and forty four thousand sealed from every
tribe of the sons of Israel: from the tribe of Judah 12,000 ... from the tribe of Reuben 12,000 ... from the tribe of
Gad ... Asher ... Naphtali ... Manasseh ... Simeon ... Levi ... Issachar ... Zebulon ... Joseph ... Benjamin.”
(Revelation 7:4-8)
I know that many of you have been taught by your religious teachers that the tribulation evangelists described
in Revelation chapter 7 are 144,000 Jewish virgin boys; 12,000 literal Israelites from each of the respective
tribes mentioned in that chapter. On the surface that may seem to be the right answer, but hidden just beneath
the surface of the scriptures, yet still in plain sight are some clues that indicate a much deeper symbolic
meaning here. Beloved, God tends to hide many things in plain sight ... we just need spiritual eyes in order to
see them.
If I were to point out to you all of the reasons as to why the 12 tribes mentioned in Revelation chapter 7 are
symbolic and cannot be literal, it would certainly make for a very informative, but long and tedious teaching.
For this reason I will share with you just a few clues that the Lord uses to show us that there is a deeper hidden
meaning in passages of scripture like this one.
One of the first clues that hinted to me that there must be a spiritual meaning to the 144,000 was the way in
which the tribes are listed. This is the only time in scripture that the names of the tribes appear in this order.
Reuben, the firstborn of Jacob, is listed as second while Judah, fourth in birth order, is listed as first. Joseph
and Levi are included, while Ephraim and Dan are left out altogether. Joseph was not normally listed among
the twelve tribes because his inheritance was given to his sons Ephraim and Manasseh. Levi was not normally
listed among the tribes because the Levites were chosen to be the priests for Israel, they were excluded from
receiving a specific territory inheritance and from census figures, instead, they were to spread out among all
the tribes as teachers and priests. Dan and Ephraim were normally listed with the tribes, but in this case they
are left out altogether. What do these things mean? Like I said earlier, I don’t feel led to go into the spiritual
meaning of these things at this time, but I do feel led to encourage all of you to wait upon the Lord where clues
are given as to a deeper spiritual meaning in the scriptures. This is so that you may move beyond some of the
traditions that have been taught to you by men, and into the Revelation of Jesus Christ and an experiential
knowledge of the Truth.
I will share something with you regarding these names that you may find rather amusing if not altogether
edifying. When I looked into the meanings of the names of each of the tribes that are listed in Revelation
chapter 7, and then put those meanings together in the very order that they are listed ... they formed a
statement. Some words were added only to complete the thought that the meaning of each name conveys, and
also to form complete sentences. The statement seems to give us some indication as to the nature and the
character of the 144,000, and also describes their story of struggle, redemption, victory, and then placement as
sons of God. The statement is as follows:
I will praise the Lord (Judah), for He has looked on me (Rueben) and has granted me good fortune (Gad).
Happy am I (Asher), because my wrestling (Naphtali) is teaching me how to overcome my fallen nature, and is
making me to forget (Manasseh) that lost and fallen state from which I have been redeemed. God hears me
(Simeon), for He has joined Himself in Spirit to me (Levi). He has purchased me (Issachar) by the Blood of the
Lamb and is making me into a place in which He chooses to dwell (Zebulun) forever. As I myself decrease
(that is my Adamic nature), God will add more of Himself to me (Joseph), for He is making me into a son of His
right hand (Benjamin) ... a son of God.
That’s kind of interesting is it not? Oh! ... and one more thing ... that “virgin” thing. These are those who are
espoused to one Husband, presented as CHASTE VIRGINS UNTO CHRIST. These are a group of God’s
people who have not been corrupted by the false doctrines of all the apostate churches, in other words, they
have not been spiritually defiled by the great whore and her many harlot daughters

Entering into Life in the Highest Realm
By Ron McGatlin
For those who are willing, God is now opening the highest heavenly realms to hear the voice calling from heaven come higher, come up here – abandon all life sustenance from the past life in the baseness of the lower realms of existence in limitations and lack of true heavenly Spirit reality.
For all who will, the door is now open in heaven to move from life ruled from the natural to truly living in the highest realm of Spirit life in the pure light of God - in the glory of all love, power, wisdom, and humility of the governance of God. For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.” Re: Isiah 57, especially verse 15.
The frivolity of sensual living at the lower realms of animalistic human governance has encroached upon the vast riches of the glorious manifestation of God’s plan and purpose for life on Planet Earth. Darkness has invaded the territory where men have abandoned the higher realms of heaven’s light. The fire of God’s pure righteous judgment will dissolve all the evil foolish ways of all that lifts itself against God.
A heavenly-minded remnant of people are now being elevated through brokenness and contriteness into the highest places of humility in the Spirit to govern in the world from the throne of the Living God who was and is and is to come.
The prideful works of religion’s self-aggrandizing ways are wood, hay, and stubble before the fire of the glory of the pure humble ways of Spirit life coming down to earth from the highest realm of the throne of Jehovah God in the Sons of the cross, the joint heirs with Christ Jesus in His resurrection life of glory.
As for the man-made religions of this world, not one stone shall be left upon another. The end of life as we have known it is the beginning of life as it shall be.
This is that of which the prophet Joel spoke. This is that for which the world and all creation has groaned in waiting for it to come to pass. It is the fullness of the mission and purpose of Jesus: the life and the cross of Christ Jesus and His return in the Holy Spirit to form Christ in a people, a people made worthy by the indwelling Christ to enter the highest realm of abiding with God and become the humble rulers of Planet Earth, bringing forth the full glory of God that brings peace on earth and goodwill toward man.
The word to all with ears to hear:
HO! WHOA! STOP! Why do you spend your life for that which does not satisfy and does not bring real life? Your greatest value, your precious time on earth you spend to purchase sustenance that is not real and will not last. You strive and cannot obtain beyond that which it temporary and empty of real fulfillment of life now and forever. God is saying come up and away to a higher place of Spirit realm, and I will give to you freely all you need and desire of real food and real life of peace and joy without cost. Re: Isaiah 55.
Look up to the hills from which comes your help. Ascend the hill of the Lord with clean hands and a pure heart. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. He who is called upon to leave house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands for Christ Jesus and His kingdom will receive far greater life now in this world and in the life to come.
There is an endurance of natural loss involved in the much greater gain of the kingdom of heaven on earth. Those who are first in the natural life of this world will be last in the greater Spirit life in the high places with God. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
Mark 10:29: So Jesus answered and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel’s, who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life.31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”
Acts 14:22: Strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, andsaying, “We must through many tribulations enter the kingdom of God.”
There is no FEAR in LOVE.
Prophetic warnings and reports of adversity are not to produce fear in the people of God but to prepare them to be strong in times of judgment upon the ungodly and unjust of the world and upon the impurities and injustices within the people of God. God’s love is always the root of His judgments. God’s judgments are for correction to realign the world to the order of “as it is in heaven.”
Beware, if the words of God’s corrective judgments cause fear in us, there is a need to draw near to God and surrender our lives completely to him – a need to hear His call to come up higher and leave behind the things of this world to become one with God in the high and lofty places. Be involved in the work of the Lord, His plan, and purpose - while there is light, for the night comes in which no one can work.
Fresh Outpouring of Purpose and Method
God is moving His people to higher and greater methods and ways of doing the works of God on earth. Prepare to receive strong changes of higher ways of doing and being. Do not cling to the past ways and structure, but be ready to move with rapid changes in how, where, and when God releases the supernatural works of His life in His people. Be not hesitant when unrestrained Spirit boldness comes upon you to move in ways you may have never experienced before in places and with people that you would not have thought possible in the past.
There is a coming alive from the higher place with God that releases all the works of God in and through His people. The raw power of God blasting into and through our words and lives will bring great encouragement to others. A tide of the power of God displayed across the world by multitudes of kingdom people is arising that will retake the land stolen by the encroachment of the enemy.
The arising of the powerful presence of God among the humble and contrite people of God will explode; the power of God’s pure love and dynamic reality of the presence of God’s holy fire shall scorch the earth for cleansing the land of all that lifts itself against the truth and reality of God in His kingdom on earth. Arise and be who God says you are, and do what He says to do and all the world shall be changed. There is no time to hold back and be restrained by any limitation. New methods, at least new to us, are coming quickly upon us.
As we go lower He lifts Himself higher in us to reclaim the kingdoms of this world as the kingdom of heaven on earth.
Isaiah 57:15: For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Truly the meek are inheriting the earth.
Love never fails.

The Resurrection of Dead Dreams
Yesterday while I was in a doctor's office I overheard a conversation between the receptionist and a patient. The receptionist handed the patient a lengthy form to fill out and asked her if there were any changes since her last visit. The patient responded in a discouraged tone of voice saying, I haven't had any changes in my life for the past ten years except for my age and my deteriorating health. As I heard that, the Lord gave me this word.
There are many Christians who have grown discouraged because they have been in the same place spiritually for many years. They have not experienced any spiritual growth or changes in their lives. The problem is that they are not doing anything to change their situations and they have let go of their dreams. Their zeal is gone they have abandoned the word of God. They are no longer hearing the voice of The Holy Spirit because they have become lax and are no longer pressing in. Jesus wants to resurrect those dreams once again.
The Lord says, I am the resurrection and the life, I am the God that raises the dead and restores lost dreams. Allow Me to resurrect those dreams that have died and revive you once again. I am your deliverer, your restorer, your healer, your provider and I will supply all your needs as you spend time with Me. Allow Me to remove the blinders from your spiritual eyes so that you could see again. Allow Me to remove obstructions from your spiritual ears so that you will hear again. Allow Me to infuse you with new insight. Don't entertain thoughts of defeat any longer, but come to Me with expectancy. Allow Me to fill every barren area of your life, and listen for My still small voice to bring resurrection to those dead areas. Allow Me to restore the joy that you once had in your relationship with Me. Don't allow circumstances to keep you from who you were called to be, and don't allow people to hinder your relationship with Me. Don't allow anything to compromise the Covenant that I have made with you.
I have made everything available that you need to succeed in your personal life as well as your spiritual life. As you spend time with Me, you will discover how to hear My voice. As you connect with Me once again, your life will have new meaning and you will be inspired with new vision. Never settle for anything less than the plans that I have for you. Don't allow burdens to weigh you down but take My yoke which is easy and My burden which is light. Don't be afraid to trust Me with your whole heart because as you hunger for more, your desires will be met. Stir yourself up and don't allow the pressures of the world to weigh you down or pull you back. Don't limit Me, as there are no limits with what I can do with your life. As you redirect your thought life to the truth of My word you will receive clarity of mind. Don't allow anything to annihilate your zeal for Me. As you rekindle that fire, watch how My anointing will resurrect everything that pertains to your life and ministry says the Lord.
Matthew 11:28 - 29
"Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
Romans 12:11-12
Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Ephesians 6:10
Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.
2 Peter 1:2-3
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,
2 Peter 1:2-3
Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,

Jesus speaks about two groups of sheep. Jesus is the
shepherd of both groups. He also spoke about two
kingdoms, an inward spiritual kingdom and a literal
earthly kingdom. Both groups of sheep have access to the
inward spiritual kingdom, but only one group will inherit
the physical earthly kingdom. These two subjects are
closely related and intertwined.
Luke 12:32 Fear not. Little Flock; for it is your
Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom.
John 10:14-16 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep,
and am known of mine. As the Father knoweth
me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for
the sheep. And Other Sheep I have. which are Hot of
this Fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my
voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.
(KJV)
Jesus speaks of 2 groups of sheep in John 21, the
"Arnions" and the "Probatons" One group are" Rams"
masc., and the others are fem. "Ewes." One flock is the
"Manchild" and the other is the "Church." Both groups
belong to Jesus and he loves them both. But we find that
of the two flocks of sheep, only the little flock, will
inherit the Kingdom. In Christ All will be made alive,
but not all receive the same reward.
John 21:15-17 Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of
Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith
unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He
saith unto him. Feed my LAMBS (RAMS - Gr.
Arnions).16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon,
son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him.
Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto
him. Feed my SHEEP (EWES • Gr. Probatons).17 He
saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas,
lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto
him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him.
Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I
love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my SHEEP (EWES •Gr.
Probatons). (KJV)
There are two groups of sheep, one masculine (rams) and
the others feminine (ewes). One group is destined
to give birth, and the other is destined to rule and
reign on earth. The Hebrew also reflects this difference
in
sheep, Kebes (Lamb) and Kibsah (Ewe). In the Old
Testament the word Lamb is always a Ram. These 2
groups are also seen in Revelation 12 when the
Woman/Church/Ewes gives birth to the
Manchild/Remnant/Rams. The purpose of the church is to
bring forth the manchild company, who will
overcome Satan and death.
Revelation 12:1,5, 9-11,17 And there appeared a great
wonder in heaven; a Woman clothed with the sun, and
the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of
twelve stars...5 And she brought forth a Manchild, who
was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child
was caught up unto God, and to his throne... And the
great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the
Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he
was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out
with him. And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven,
now is come salvation, and strength, and the Kingdom of
our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser
of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before
our God day and night. And They (Manchild)
overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb, and by the
word of their testimony; and they loved not their
lives unto the death. 17 And the dragon was wroth with
the Woman, and went to make war with the Remnant
of her Seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have
the testimony of Jesus Christ. (KJV)
Two Groups
Rams (Masc) Ewes (Fern)
Arnions (Greek) Probatons (Greek)
Manchild (Sons) Woman (Church)
LITTLE FLOCK AND THE KINGDOM OF GOD [E. E. Brooks] 2
The Woman/Church is expecting to avoid the tribulation
via a "rapture." They are not preparing for the
tribulation. They see no need to bring extra "oil" in
their lamps, for they do not believe they'll be here when
the
darkness of tribulation hits. There were 5 Wise and 5
Foolish Virgins/Christians. That means that at least half
of all Christians are foolishly not preparing for the
Tribulation.
Acts 14:22 Confirming the souls of the disciples, and
exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must
through Much Tribulation enter into the Kingdom of God.
(KJV)
NOTE: It is important to note that the Kingdom of God and
the Kingdom of Heaven are synonymous terms, that
is, they can be used interchangeably. In fact after Jesus
gave the parable of the Sower, Matthew uses the
phrase Kingdom of Heaven, while Luke uses Kingdom of God
describing the same story.
KINGDOM OF HEAVEN = KINGDOM OF GOD
They are the exact same thing
Matthew 13:11 (Parable of the Sower)
He answered and said unto them. Because it is given unto
you to know the mysteries of the Kingdom of
Heaven, but to them it is not given. (KJV)
Luke 8:10 (Parable of the Sower)
And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries
of the Kingdom of God: but to others in parables;
that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might
not understand.
TWO KINGDOMS
Acts 1:6-7 When they therefore were come together, they
asked of him, saying. Lord, wilt thou at this time
restore again the Kingdom to Israel? 7 And he said unto
them, it is not for you to know the times or the
seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
(KJV)
The religious leaders of Jesus' day came to him and asked
him When the kingdom would be set up on earth.
When the Pharisees asked him that question, they were
speaking about a literal physical kingdom on earth.
Jesus did not come at that time to set up the literal
kingdom, but rather an inward spiritual kingdom. There
are
two kingdoms. Some scriptures refer to a literal kingdom,
while others refer to a spiritual kingdom. It is up to us
to sort them out in order to understand what will happen
in these last days. The religious leaders back then
were mistakenly looking for a literal physical kingdom.
Today, at the turn of the new millennium, the religious
leaders are looking for Jesus to "rapture" us to a
spiritual heavenly kingdom. They just do not get it. The
religious leaders were wrong then, and they are wrong
today. Now that the spiritual kingdom has been set up
for 2000 years, the time is come for the literal physical
kingdom to be established.
The goal of the church today is to die (or be "raptured")
and go to heaven. Let me set the record straight, I do
not want to die and go to heaven... I want to live and
see the kingdom come to earth. Those who Overcome
every enemy will inherit both the spiritual and literal
earthly kingdom. Jesus prayed "Thy Kingdom Come to
Earth!" Jesus fully understood the difference between the
kingdom within us, and the physical literal kingdoms
of this earth. Jesus knew that he was confusing the
Pharisees, in fact he did it on purpose by speaking in
parables. Jesus always spoke plainly to the chosen ones
when they were alone. Even so it is today, we need
to listen as he speaks to us individually.
Mark 4:34 But without a parable spake he not unto them:
and when they were alone, he expounded all things
to his disciples. (KJV)
The mystery of the kingdom is given unto you to
understand. The religious leaders today still can not
understand the difference between the literal kingdom and
the spiritual one. When we realize that some
scriptures refer to a spiritual kingdom, and others to a
literal one, then it is easier to understand what is
meant.
If we are not able to rightly divide the word of God,
then it will appear very confusing. Jesus says in one
place
LITTLE FLOCK AND THE KINGDOM OF GOD [E. E. Brooks] 3
that "the kingdom is within you," and then in another he
prays, "thy kingdom come One scripture says that the
kingdom is not meat and drink, while another says there
will be eating and drinking. Can you tell which one is
referring to the spiritual inward kingdom and which is
refers to the literal kingdom?
Romans 14:17 For the Kingdom of God is Not meat and
drink: but Righteousness, and Peace, and Joy in the
Holy Ghost. (KJV)
Luke 14:15 And when one of them that sat at meat with him
heard these things, he said unto him, Blessed is
he that shall Eat Bread in the Kingdom of God. (KJV)
Matthew 26:29 But I say unto you, I will not drink
henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when
I drink
it new with you in my Father's Kingdom. (KJV)
One time Jesus is speaking to the Pharisees concerning
the Kingdom. They wanted to know when the earthly
kingdom would come. Jesus first tells them that the
kingdom does not come with observation, and then, in the
same breath, he says everyone will plainly see it as
"lightning" in the sky!
Luke 17:20-24 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees,
When the Kingdom of God should come, he
answered them and said, The Kingdom of God cometh Not
with observation: 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here!
or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within
you. And he said unto the disciples. The days will come,
when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of
man, and ye shall not see it. And they shall say to
you, See here; or, see there: go not after them, nor
follow them. For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of
the
one part under heaven, shineth unto the other/w/ under
heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day.
(KJV)
Is there any wonder why there is so much confusion today
about the Kingdom of God? Both groups of sheep
have access to the spiritual inward kingdom of
righteousness, peace and joy, but the earthly kingdom is
reserved for the Little Flock. We must have spiritual
eyes and ears to understand what it's all about. When
Babylon falls, the literal kingdoms of this earth will
become the kingdoms of our Lord and his Christ.
Revelation 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there
were great voices in heaven, saying. The
Kingdoms of This World are become the Kingdoms of our
Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever
and ever. (KJV)
Revelation 5:10 And hast made us unto our God Kings and
Priests: and We Shall Reign on the Earth. (KJV)
__________SEE => ENTER => INHERIT__________
Some will only "see* the Kingdom, others will "enter" the
Kingdom and a remnant few will actually "inherit" the
Kingdom! This also relates to Passover, Pentecost and
Tabernacles.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily,
verily, I say unto thee. Except a man be born again, he
cannot SEE The Kingdom of God. (KJV)
John 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born of water and o/the Spirit, he
cannot EMTER Into the Kingdom of God. (KJV)
Matthew 25:31-40 When the Son of man shall come in his
glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he
sit upon the throne of his glory: And before him shall be
gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one
from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the
goats: And he shall set the Sheep on his right hand,
but the goats on the left.34 Then shall the King say unto
them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my
Father, INHERIT The Kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and
ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I
was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye
clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the righteous
answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred,
and fed thee or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When
LITTLE FLOCK AND THE KINGDOM OF GOD [E. E. Brooks] 4
saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in?or naked, and
clothed thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison,
and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say
unto them. Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye
have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me. (KJV)
The scripture is very clear, those who give food and
water to the needy, and shelter and clothing to the
homeless, are the ones who Inherit the Kingdom! These
will be Merciful and grant Mercy to all. They are the
Sheep of the right Hand, the Little Flock, the Sons of
God. This fully mature group of Sons will become one
with EI-Elyon, the Most High God, even as Jesus is one
with him. The Saints of the Most High are the Little
Flock who will inherit or possess the Kingdom.
Daniel 7:18 But the Saints of the Most High shall take
the Kingdom, and Possess the Kingdom for ever. even
for ever and ever. (KJV)
Daniel 7:22 Until the Ancient of days came, and judgment
was given to the Saints of the Most High; and the
time came that the Saints Possessed the Kingdom.
Daniel 7:27 And the Kingdom and dominion, and the
greatness of the Kingdom under the whole heaven,
shall be given to the people of the Saints of the Most
High, whose Kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom,
and all dominions shall serve and obey HIM.
The Little Flock or the Arnion/Rams/Sons are standing
with Jesus on Mt Zion. It's the same group of
"Saviors" (plural) on Mt Zion in Obadiah 21.
Obadiah21 And SAVIOURS shall come up on mount Zion to
judge the mount of Esau; and the Kingdom shall
be the LORD'S. (KJV)
Revelation 14:1-8 And I looked, and, lo, a LAMB (ARNION)
stood on the mount Sion, and with him an
hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name
written in their foreheads. And I heard a
voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as
the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of
harpers harping with their harps: And they sung as it
were a new song before the throne, and before the four
beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song
but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which
were redeemed from the earth.4
These are they which were not defiled with women; for
they are virgins.
These are they which follow the LAMB (ARNION)
whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from
among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the LAMB
(ARNION). 5
And in their mouth was found no
guile: for they are without fault before the throne of
God.6
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven,
having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that
dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred,
and tongue, and people,7
Saying with a loud voice. Fear God, and give glory to
him; for the hour of his
judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and
earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is
fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all
nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her
fornication. (KJV) The Greek word Arnion (Lamb) is found
once in
John 21, and every other reference is found in Revelation
where the word Arnion sometimes refers to the
Remnant and sometimes to Jesus alone. Since the Sons
become one with Jesus, it's sometime hard to know.
Rev 14:8 said that the Arnion/Rams/Sons are the Saviors
(plural) who stand on Mt Zion. They are Virgins, not
defiled with women (church). These are the Bridegroom
Company of Sons, redeemed from among Men. The
Rams are the male sheep who make up this little flock.
The parable of the 10 Virgins is about a Bridegroom
Company! They are the Sons who will enter the Bridegrooms
Chamber to become part of the Corporate
Bridegroom. They will become One with the Father and
Jesus.
Matthew 25:1-13 Then shall the Kingdom of Heaven be
likened unto Ten Virgins, which took their lamps,
and went forth to meet the Bridegroom.2
And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They
that were
foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But
the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.5
While
the Bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And
at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the
Bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him. Then all those
virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the
foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our
lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not
so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye
rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And
while they went to buy, the Bridegroom came; and they
that were ready went in with HIM to the marriage:
and the door was shut.11 Afterward came also the other
virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he
answered and said. Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor
the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. (KJV)
TWO GROUPS
Bridegroom Bride
Rams (Masc) Ewes (Fern)
Arnions (Greek) Probatons (Greek)
Manchild (Sons) Woman (Church)
The Bridegroom will take the 5 Wise Virgins, who are not
defiled with women, and they will prepare for
marriage or union with the-Bride of Christ. They will
enter the Bridegroom Chamber which is symbolic of a
Tabernacle experience. The Bridegroom Chamber is the same
place as the Secret Place of the Most High or
the Holy of Holies. Those who enter there will be
transformed to inherit a glorified body and to become one
with God. This group will "Know* God unlike the 5 foolish
Virgins. This "knowing" is speaking of a union with
God. These will become a High Priest just like Jesus the
pattern Son. Each person who enters there will speak
with God face-to-face. They will be the fully mature Sons
of God, ready for the union of the Spirit and Soul.
These will be ready for the marriage supper of the Lamb
(Arnion).
Revelation 19:7-9 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give
honour to him: for the Marriage of the LAMB (Arnion)
is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. And to her
was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen,
clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness
of saints.9
And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are
they which are called unto the Marriage Supper of the
LAMB (Arnion).
The Probatons or Ewe sheep will ultimately become the
Bride of Christ, while the Arnions or Sons will be part
of the Bridegroom Company. Can a Bride be a King? No,
Kings-and Priests were masculine, like the Arnions.
The Sons are led by the Spirit, but the Church is led by
their headquarters.
Revelation 5:10 And hast made Us unto our God Kings and
Priests: and We shall Reign on the Earth.
(KJV)
The Sons of God are part of the Bridegroom Company who
become one with the Most High God. They will
not die, but be transformed in their physical body to
receive a glorified body like Jesus currently has.
Colossians 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of
darkness, and hath Translated us into the
Kingdom of his dear Son: (KJV) Jesus went through a
transformation or a metamorphosis, we will too. Our
flesh and blood will be changed or glorified and we will
not taste death. Our bodies will be saved, and we will
rule and reign in the Kingdom of God. Our carnal bodies
must be changed into glorified bodies if we are to
inherit the Kingdom. The little flock will become exactly
like Jesus.
1 Corinthians 15:50-51 What I am saying, brothers and
sisters, is this: flesh and blood cannot Inherit the
Kingdom of God. nor does the perishable inherit the
imperishable.51 Listen, I will tell you a mystery! We
Will Hot All Die. but we will all be Changed. (NRSV)
The Little Flock will be comprised of both men and women.
Women are also the Sons of God, because it's the
Circumcision of the Heart. The Sons are those who have
been birthed or come out of the Woman/Church.
These will not be defiled with the traditions of a
manmade worldly church system. There are good people in
every manmade denomination. It is important to separate
the organizations from the people who are in them.
The manmade church systems should be taking care of
societies needy and homeless. Instead they take care
of the organization, building opulent buildings, spending
money on stained glass windows, fine furniture,
curtains and carpeting etc. Many good people follow these
organizations like blind Sheep. Unless God opens
their eyes, they are destined to remain in bondage to a
spiritual Babylon. God loves all these good people, hut
not their organizations.
Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven,
saying, Come out of Her, my people, -that ye be
not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her
plagues. (KJV)
Some will be satisfied to only be Believers of the Word,
accepting Jesus in their Heart and that is all. They will
only know the Passover experience. Others will be both
Believers and Receivers. They will not only accept
Jesus in their Heart, but also Receive the Holy Spirit in
their Soul. This is the Pentecostal experience. But a
remnant few will go to actually becoming a
Believer/Receiver/Conceiver. They will produce the mature
fruit and
receive the 100 fold Glory of the Sun. This is the
fullness of the Feast of Tabernacles. The manifested Sons
will go from a blade, to an ear, to the full corn.
Mark 4:28 For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself;
first the blade, then the ear. after that the full corn
in the
ear. (KJV)
When all is said and done, the Kingdoms of this earth
will become the Kingdom of God. There is a small group
who will actually inherit that very same Kingdom. They
are known as the Sons of God, the Remnant, the
Overcomers, Saints of the Most High and the "Little
Flock."
Revelation 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there
were great voices in heaven, saying. The
Kingdoms of This World are become the Kingdoms of our
Lord, and of his Christ; and of his Christ; and he shall
reign for ever and ever. (KJV
