rhema 5/28/08 ALARMING LESSONS

EXPERIENCE:  At midnight, the alarm started blaring and I could not figure out how to turn it off.

HEARD:  I think it was the case of the missing boundaries. 

PIX:  I saw different options and number 4 was, Better to be Safe than Sorry.  

HEARD: The world is a contrary place.  That is My will to let go. 

PIX:  I saw a toddler standing up and putting his finger in an electrical socket in the wall. 

HEARD:  They are relentless.  So AM I. 

HEARD:  Don’t argue.  How to choose your best option.  How do I find freedom?  Just say NO.  Backbone.  Yes Sir.  Out the door.  Freedom.  Set free. 

HEARD:  That is My answer.  No more. 

Why did I have you walk through that lesson?  Painful.  So that you would not forget, I AM Boss.  Why is this important? 

What are your options?  To be like Me. 

HEARD:  Wings.  Take off and fly My child, you’ve learned your lessons. 

WORD TO PONDER:  ALARMING LESSONS:  JUST SAY NO  5/28/08

Dear child, sometimes I allow you to go through a very painful lesson because your mindset is so strong that nothing else will get your attention.  If you are relentless in going in the wrong direction, then I AM relentless.   You will learn the painful lesson that to the same degree you resist My voice, I will do what is necessary to gain your attention.  My red light will flash and I will turn on the alarm in your life and wake you out of your slumber. 

Precious one, those times may be very painful lessons.  But I AM a good God and I want you guarded and protected within safe boundaries by walking in righteous, holy choices.  The world is in opposition to My kingdom, My heart.  It will burn you if you touch the wrong places.  Making unholy choices opens demonic doors that are hard to close once opened.  Learn to turn your back on temptation and just say NO.  It is better to be safe than sorry when it comes to questionable boundaries. 

Prov 15:16 NKJV

Better is a little with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure with trouble.

Prov 27:5-6 NKJV

Open rebuke is better  than love carefully concealed.   Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

Prov 28:6 NKJV

Better is the poor who walks in his integrity than one perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

Eccl 7:2-5 NKJV

Better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for that is the end of all men; And the living will take it to heart.  Sorrow is better than laughter, for by a sad countenance the heart is made better.  The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.  It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise than for a man to hear the song of fools.
