Beloved, don’t assume that what you are doing right now is what you will always be doing! It’s a NEW SEASON!! God has a destiny for you – and it is good!! Get ready for the change that’s coming. Are you willing to step into it? Are you willing to put aside your plan and step into God’s plan?
It’s time to put feet to our faith!!! “For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.”
James 2:26
I woke up this morning thinking about the post I wanted to write for facebook. I began thinking about an appropriate Father’s Day post…a post honoring my father who has been gone from this earthly realm for 34 years…or a post honoring Father God…or a post in general to all fathers.
As my mind went to the different paths I could take, I began thinking of a prophetic word the Lord gave me a few weeks back and has been “simmering” in my spirit ever since.
As the word again came to my mind this morning, I found myself saying, “But Lord, it’s Father’s Day!” I immediately heard Him speak in my spirit, “Exactly!” And with that one word from the Lord I knew what I was supposed to post – The word He had given me weeks ago:
WATCHMEN ARISE!! IT’S TIME TO TAKE YOUR POSITION ON THE WALL!!
I hear the Lord calling all of the men in His kingdom to assume their positions as Watchmen not only for their families, but for their cities, their states, their country, their world!!
The Lord needs all men to armor up and stand shoulder to shoulder in their positions of authority and “see” what is here and what is coming. Not only is the Lord calling for His mighty men to be Watchmen…but He is calling for them to be the voice of authority over all of the ploys of the enemy!
As I sat in church this morning, I heard the Lord say:
IT’S NOT YOUR GREATNESS – BUT MY GREATNESS WORKING IN AND THROUGH YOU THAT BRINGS MY WILL TO BE DONE ON THIS EARTH!!
So, on this Father’s Day, I am being obedient and sending out the call from our Almighty Father for all fathers to ARMOR UP, STAND UP, AND TAKE YOUR POSTIONS!!
*Ephesians 6:10-18*
As I was standing in the choir on Sunday worshipping with my Brothers & Sisters in Christ, I noticed something round and red lying on the floor right in front of me. At the end of the church service, I bent down to pick it up and saw that it was a “Graduation” token that had been dropped during the Graduation ceremony that had been held for our preschool students.
I immediately felt the Lord place a spiritual meaning upon the word “Graduation!” I hear the Lord saying that many are going through a time of graduation to the deeper things of God. Many have walked the path of learning and training in the ways of God and are ready to “level up.” Beloved of God, some of the training and molding and shaping has been difficult…but God has used it all for our good…to bring us to a place of being more like Him.
It’s time to lay aside all those things that are holding you back from being all that God has called you to be. And yes…some of those things are good…but God wants you to make room for His best. Don’t settle for less!!
Are you ready to don the robe/mantle that the Lord has been holding for you for such a time as this? Are you ready to take that walk across the stage of life and accept the call of God upon you?
Do not fear, for I am with you; do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10
Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16
IT’S TIME TO SHINE, CHURCH!! BE FEARLESS, BE BOLD, AND TAKE JESUS INTO ALL THE WORLD!!!!
Jesus reminds us that we are to humbly serve and minister to His people. It’s not always possible to physically wash someone else’s feet. I believe Jesus did this not only as a physical example of how to humbly serve others…but I believe He did it as a spiritual example of how we are to humbly position ourselves to serve others. It is a reminder that sometimes in the serving, we have to be willing to do the job that we may feel is “beneath us.” Brothers & Sisters, may we truly have a “servant heart” and serve our Lord Jesus by serving His people. ❤️
“Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.” (Matthew 10:40 NASB1995)
Thank You, Jesus! Have you been forgiven & cleansed?
Dearest ones, have you been rescued by Father God? Have you received redemption in and through Jesus Christ, His Son? Are you living confidently in the kingdom of God knowing the truth of your identity in Christ? If you have not received Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, are you ready to?
“…if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.“
Romans 10:9-10
What is the Lord calling you to do next? Put away all fear, anxiety, doubt…you aren’t in this alone. The Lord is with you and will equip you to fulfill His purpose. He will strengthen you…He will guide you…He will protect you. Be strong and courageous!!
Good morning! I came across this post this morning and it really made me pause and reflect on what it says. I think we all want to do what God has called us to do. But, do we realize that if we aren’t obedient, it doesn’t just affect us? Something to think about…
Reflection of Glory!
