RHEMA 10/21/13 FROM CLAY FLESH TO TRANSPARENT GLORY
HEARD: Going down the bumpy stream with
Sandy. The journey from clay to transparency. No 2
stories are the same, how they got here. Bleeding.
Water that’s bleeding. The journey from flesh to
Spirit.
BLOODY CIRCUMCISION OF THE SOUL
Exodus 4:25-26 Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and
cut off the foreskin of her son, and cast it at his
feet, and said, Surely a bloody husband are you to me.
26 So he let him go: then she said, A bloody husband you
are, because of the circumcision.
Jer 4:3-4 NKJV
Break up your fallow ground, and do not sow among
thorns. Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and take away
the foreskins of your hearts...
Rom 2:29 NLT
And true circumcision is not a cutting of the body
but a change of heart produced by God's Spirit.
COMMENT: There is coming a move of God where
there is going to be massive, chaotic deliverance.
People will lay on the floor in agony, wrestling and
releasing and getting up completely free. It will be a
quick work and a bloody one.
I listened to a sermon from Neville and he kept talking
about everyone had to go through an experience called
the day of atonement, and this was necessary before
being able to move on and go towards the fulfillment of
the experience of the feast of Tabernacles. He
described it as afflicting the soul. As I listened, it
all sounded exactly like the process I went through and
the Lord called this circumcision of the soul.
Circumcision of the soul is a death to self in our mind,
will and emotions where everything that does not line up
with the Word of God goes through complete repentance,
death and change.
RHEMA 10/03/13 AFTER SOUL SURGERY
Surgery. Bloody epinion. Disorganized, chaotic. Are
you OK? Swept clean. It was put back into order.
Covering you. A new day. Remodel.
WAYNE VISION
10/26/13 PLAYING IN THE WINE
Saw:
As I was praying I saw a little boy who was playing
on the couch that had a blanket draped over the seat and
down onto the floor. There was what looked like thick
grape juice spilled all over the blanket and the little
boy was playing in the grape juice. When he stood up he
had grape juice all over him.

THE ANGEL COVERED IN BLOODY RED GRAPE JUICE
QUOTE ANNA ROUNDTREE
Anna was taken to heaven and she shares her experiences
there.
From the book "The Heaven's Opened"
Starting on page 53, Obedience
"I heard the voice of Jesus very clearly. "Obedience,
Anna." I stopped in my tracks. He continued. "I
delight to show you your heavenly home but for your
safety you must be trained in obedience. There are
grave dangers. All doors to the enemy, must be shut."
As I stood in wonder at the gravity of what He had said
an angel appeared on the path beside me. The angel
began talking to as though he were continuing some
conversation we had already begun, gesturing with his
hand toward God's park. "All of this is for the
children of God, but you Anna have chosen to eat from
the hand of God. You must love your Father enough to
choose obedience rather than gratification on earth.
Choose Him minute by minute. You are careless with His
gifts and you are careless with His love for you."
His over familiarity stunned me as well as his knowledge
of a decision I had only recently made. But yes I was
careless. As the Lord had drawn me into a deeper walk
with Him, those things permissible a year or even a
month ago were now no longer allowable. Somehow I could
no longer get by with them, but I still lapsed into many
of these faults.
Elusive sins caused me to pay a high price in my
relationship with the Lord. I thought to myself, 'Let
the wicked forsake his ways, and the righteous his
thoughts.' I had moved from the "way" category to
the "thought."
Isa 55:6-9 NKJV
Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him
while He is near. 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, And
the unrighteous man his thoughts; Let him return to the
Lord, And He will have mercy on him; And to our God, For
He will abundantly pardon. 8 "For My thoughts are not
your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the
Lord. 9 "For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts
than your thoughts.
My mind did not focus on unforgiveness or jealousy or
such obvious sins. My sins were now engaging my mind
in some area where I was not called. Or in letting my
mind dwell on the past. Or in making a judgment that
was out my boundary of responsibility.
My life had become very constrained indeed. If I walked
without turning to the right or the left, I remained in
the flow of God's grace. Any thoughts that were vain
in their imaginations caused my mind to run in grooves
around a track. Such thoughts were driven by tormentors
it seemed. But I found that I could stop them by
repeatedly catching myself and halting the train of
thoughts, as I began to think on such vain thoughts.
Of course these thoughts would tip toe back in again,
needing to be run out time and time again. Therefore
I was halting them and throwing them out as if my
shoulder were against the door of access. Still I
was careless, as he had said and was mentally running
around many tracks in torment and weariness until
each thought
was taken captive to Christ. Earlier in my life
with Christ, my mind could do as it pleased. But not
now. Narrow and narrower was the way. But in this
obedience to His Word was life.
2 Cor 10:3-6 NKJV
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war
according to the flesh. 4 For the weapons of our warfare
are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down
strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high
thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God,
bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience
of Christ, 6 and being ready to punish all disobedience
when your obedience is fulfilled.
Without missing a beat, the angel on the path beside me
said, "I am Shama."
OT:8091 SHAMA
Shama` (shaw-maw'); from OT:8085; obedient; Shama,
an Israelite:
KJV - Shama.
OT:8085
shama` (shaw-mah'); a primitive root; to hear
intelligently (often with implication of attention,
obedience, etc.; causatively, to tell, etc.):
KJV - attentively, call (gather) together, carefully,
certainly, consent, consider, be content, declare,
diligently, discern, give ear, (cause to, let, make to)
hear (-ken, tell), indeed, listen, make (a) noise, (be)
obedient, obey, perceive, (make a) proclaim (-ation),
publish, regard, report, shew (forth), (make a) sound,
surely, tell, understand, whosoever [heareth], witness.
I saw no reason to give my name, for he seemed to know
almost as much about me as I did myself. "Shall we
walk?" he continued.
Almost stumbling, I moved forward. He had long,
straight, silver hair that was caught at the base of his
head and hung down his back. He was very muscular, and
although his hair was silver, he looked perhaps forty.
He wore a full-length
white robe, which
looked as though it had been stained with blood of the
juice of red grapes. This stain was on the hem of the
robe and on the cuffs of the long sleeves, discoloring
the garment to the knees and elbows.
"You delight in God." he continued. "I have watched you
and see that you desire nearness to Him. However do
you not know that disobedience creates a wall between
you and Him? It is a wall of your own making, because
you can not curb your natural desires.
He will replace
with Himself, every delight that you push away..."..."There
is a type of suffering in obedience, but the rewards
far, far outweigh the pain."
... "Why is your robe
stained at the bottom and on the sleeves?"
"I am called to assist
in child training - the kind that squeezes a child -
like being in a wine press. These," he looked
down at the stains, "are
visible signs of the child's development. The more
stains, the greater the work has progressed within the
child. Obedience is not learned easily, Anna.
Some on earth never learn it."
Rom 12:1-2 NKJV
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of
God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice,
holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable
service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may
prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will
of God.
2 Cor 4:7-12 NKJV
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that
the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.
8 We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we
are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not
forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed — 10 always
carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our
body. 11 For we who live are always delivered to death
for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also may be
manifested in our mortal flesh.
"Are you an angel assigned to help train me?" I asked.
"I am assigned to you."
"Helping to train people in obedience cannot be a
pleasant job."
The angel replied, "It is of great significance to the
Father and absolutely necessary.
By this time in your
life, my robe should be entirely stained and my face and
hands dripping, but there are only stained on the hem
and sleeves. So may I suggest that you are
hindering your growth through known disobedience.
Immediate gratification can never replace serving the
Lord with a whole heart.
Such obedience
release joys untold."
I looked out over the landscape, letting the truths he
was sharing work within me. "I have sinned," I said
quietly. I did not wish to seem glib, but I did wish to
show a willingness to repent promptly. "I ask the Lord
to forgive me."
He put his arm around my shoulder and jostled me, as a
coach might a football player. "And you know He does.
This is a good day for new beginning,' he smiled. Then
he removed his arm and looked ahead solemnly.
"I thank you for your patience and for helping me.
I can see you are a powerful angel. If you were human I
would say you 'worked out'."
"We do 'work out'," he laughed heartily, "but our
workout comes from wrestling with humans.
I look as I do because you have given me so much
resistance through your flesh. "So," he laughed,
"you might say I do 'work out.' I would suggest that
you turn this very day so that my workout is less
strenuous. Delight yourself in God, Anna, and reduce my
exercise program," he smiled.
Then he sobered rapidly. "Nothing, no one can compare
to Him," he said. "Speaking for those of us who are
assigned to you," he continued haltingly, almost as if
he was going to reveal something deeply person, "we
would like to get a little closer to God." He
almost stammered, "if
it were only us, we would; but much depends upon you
concerning that." He seemed so embarrassed by
what he had said that he vanished..."
{end quotes}
COMMENTS: Scripture tells us as a man thinks in
his heart, so is he. It is very important to take our
thoughts captive.
When we are transformed, we will be able to travel
anywhere in earth or heaven with one thought. We will
be transfigured and transformed through the renewing of
our minds.
Romans 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but
be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you
may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and
perfect, will of God.
PIX:
I saw 2 little jar bottles that before had been
made out of pottery, were now totally clean, transparent
and pure.
RHEMA 9/02/09 THE BROKEN JAR
HEARD:
Clear. To see through His eyes. And for the first
time, you understand. Why. You swallowed it, you wanted
to know. The sword of the Lord and of Gideon.
Judg 7:19-22 NLT
It was just after midnight, after the changing of the
guard, when Gideon and the one hundred men with him
reached the outer edge of the Midianite camp. Suddenly,
they blew the horns and broke their clay jars. 20 Then
all three groups blew their horns and broke their jars.
They held the blazing torches in their left hands and
the horns in their right hands and shouted, "A sword for
the LORD and for Gideon!" 21 Each man stood at his
position around the camp and watched as all the
Midianites rushed around in a panic, shouting as they
ran. 22 When the three hundred Israelites blew their
horns, the LORD caused the warriors in the camp to fight
against each other with their swords. Those who were not
killed fled to places as far away as Beth-shittah near
Zererah and to the border of Abel-meholah near Tabbath.
HEARD:
You are not alone says the Lord. I accompanied
you, your entire journey. To go down that road. All the
spots, all the flaws, all washed away.
WORD TO PONDER: WHY DID THE CLAY JAR BREAK? 9/02/09
Listen to the sword of Gideon. He was the weakest in his
clan and the least in his father’s house. I chose him to
lead an army of only 300 men to deliver Israel from the
plundering of the Midianites. It was not through his
strength that brought the victory, but his willingness
to trust Me in his weakness and obey. I commanded Gideon
and his crew to break their clay jars and it was only
when their jars broke, that the blazing torches inside
appeared to the enemy camp that caused their defeat. So
it is with you, beloved one. When you have willing
walked through brokenness in obedience to Me, I use this
power of weakness to defeat much opposition. Heed this
truth, swallow it, for in its wisdom is a powerful key
to My perspective towards your healing.
2 Cor 4:7-12 NKJV
But we have this treasure in earthen vessels , that
the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.
8 We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we
are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not
forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed — 10 always
carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our
body. 11 For we who live are always delivered to death
for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also may be
manifested in our mortal flesh. 12 So then death is
working in us, but life in you.
WORD TO PONDER: FROM CLAY FLESH TO TRANSPARENT
GLORY 10/21/13
Dear one, yes there are seasons when layers of your soul
wrestle with Me. You know I AM much stronger than you!
Smile. As you lay down the power of your own soul and
yield it to Me, I excise those weights off you and set
you free. However if you argue and continue in your own
opinions, we tumble, toss and turn until you are
exhausted and then let go. Precious one, all must go
through this process of stripping away the layers and
veils that stand between us. I want you a transparent,
clear vessel where you will know even as you are known.
2 Corinthians 3:13-18 And not as Moses, who put a
veil over his face, that the children of Israel could
not steadfastly see the end of that which is abolished:
14 But their minds were blinded: for until this day
remains the same veil not taken away in the reading of
the old covenant; which veil is done away in Christ. 15
But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the veil is
upon their hearts. 16 Nevertheless when one shall turn
to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away. 17 Now the
Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord
is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with unveiled face
beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are
changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as
by the Spirit of the Lord.
Rom 2:29 NLT
And true circumcision is not a cutting of the body
but a change of heart produced by God's Spirit.
