RHEMA 11/18/13  RIDDLE:  END TIME PREPARATIONS

HEARD:  I’ve got this rain water inside this tank.  I want it, I really want it.  Occupy.  And you shall have it says the Lord.  My triumphant daughter.  Where do we go from here?  Snow melt, oh that too.  Shining brightly. 

HEARD:  Hide shelters. 

PIX:  I saw a storage shack like those at Jerrys.  F5 

[The F5 key means to refresh the page to see the update of what’s changed.]

HEARD:  We value your opinion.  epionions no more, just My Word. 

PIX:  I saw a boy about 8 years old that was in a top hat and coat that was too big for him. 

HEARD:  Once you start with the garden seeds, you can grow passion really fast.  It is growing up nicely. 

INTERP:  This is a strong meat riddle, called Dark Speech.  The Lord is saying that when it comes to end time preparations, what is really important is not man’s opinions, but rather His Word.  What He wants more than physical preparations is that His Word will be planted in the fertile soil of our hearts and we will grow up and mature rapidly into His image.  He wants to rain and pour out upon us!

In the 1980’s the Lord told me to prepare an ark.  I did not know whether this was physical preparations for end times or spiritual preparations for end times!  I prepared both.  But what I discovered along the way is that no matter how many of your family you prepare for, there will never be enough and so what was important was to have the faith to multiply food and resources in that day.

Matthew 24:6-8 And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Proverbs 6:6-9 Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider her ways, and be wise: 7 Who having no guide, overseer, or ruler, 8 Provides her food in the summer, and gathers her food in the harvest. 9 How long will you sleep, O sluggard? when will you arise out of your sleep?

Proverbs 22:3 A prudent man foresees the evil, and hides himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.

PRAYER:  Lord we pray that You will move upon the hearts of Your people to prepare both spiritual and physical arks for these last days.  Let them become Your light for a sorrowing and desperate world.  Thank You for Your days of acceleration that is rapidly growing the seed of Your Word into lives and thank You for bringing Your people into Your image.  Let the wakeup call and also comfort of Your Word become our focus in Jesus name.

UPDATE CONFIRMATION PASTOR JAMES  - EXAMINE YOUR PRIORITIES  11/23/13

http://highercallingministriesintl.com/

This morning I was lifted up to the training room again. In the room, I saw the Lord seated at a table and examining the things we had packed according to His word during the last few weeks. Each of our containers were being opened and all the items were out on the table as the Lord picked up each one and examined it. I was surprised to see that He wasn’t making any apparent judgments about the items and did not react to anything. I wanted to understand this and received a word by revelation knowledge that we were being given the chance to examine our own priorities.

Are we holding on to the right things for this season? Are we carrying what we will need? Is there anything else to leave behind so that they will not be a burden as we travel with the Lord? My thoughts went to Philippians 3:12-14, “Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.” There seemed to be an urgency for us to prioritize right now! Amen?

The Lord then gave me an open vision in which He showed me a walled city which seemed to be very focused on preparing for a siege. Supplies were being stacked up extremely high as if the people and their livestock were expecting to need to survive on these things for a long period of time. Then I understood that we are also under siege even though many of us do not know it yet. The enemy has made an attempt to surround us and cut off our source of supply. I had felt this very strongly as I first went before the Lord, but didn’t understand it until I received this vision. The big questions are: Are we preparing? Have we stored up what we will need? Have we made provisions for ourselves, our families, and others the Lord has or will put under our care? We must not waste any more time! Are you getting ready for what is coming? Are you ready for what is already happening? We are already in part of the famine of the enemies siege, but we have GOOD NEWS: The Lord is our source and He will not leave us or abandon us! Amen! Hallelujah! Thank you Lord! I believe it and I receive it! How about you?

UPDATE BOBBY CONNER QUOTE:  DON’T FOCUS ON THE TRAUMA  11/23/13

(From a YouTube sermon)

Now is the time for us to put our focus back upon God.  If we keep on looking at the affairs of the world, looking at the things coming, it will cause a real perplexity in our hearts.  The Bible says men’s hearts failing them for the things coming upon the earth. 

Luke 21:26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking toward those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

But what we do now is FORCE OUR FOCUS OFF OF THESE TRAUMAS and back onto the things of God.  It’s Isa 26:3,4. 

Isaiah 26:3,4 You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on you: because he trusts in you.  Trust in the LORD forever: for in the LORD GOD is everlasting strength:

Do you believe we need to force our focus back on Him?  It’s Phil 4:8

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

You have 3 gates you need to really guard.  The eye gate, the ear gate and the mouth.  Because whatever comes in, it will either build faith or fear.  We have got to guard our heart with all diligence and what we have got to do is make sure we are putting good things into our heart.  The Word of God.  The Word of God is good.  Psalms 19 verse 7, it says the Word of the Lord is perfect. 

Psalms 19:7 The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
