THE HIGHWAY OF HOLINESS 11/14/85

TRANCE VISION:  The following is a vision of gazing wonder the Lord gave me as quoted from my journal:  "When I went to sleep on November 14, 1985, I had a strong yearning for Jesus.  As I slept, He came to me and opened my eyes.  I saw a huge, gigantic banner unfolding across the sky.  It said, "THE LORD JESUS CHRIST."  Suddenly I found myself in heaven looking down upon a vast desert.  It was dry, brown, flat, and immense.  As I gazed upon the lifeless desert, someone was standing above and behind me declaring the scroll of Isaiah 35:  

"Isa 35 NKJV

The wilderness and the wasteland shall be glad for them, and the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose; It shall blossom abundantly and rejoice, even with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, The excellence of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the LORD, the excellency of our God.  

Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees. Say to those who are fearful-hearted, "Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God; He will come and save you."

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, and streams in the desert. The parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water; In the habitation of jackals, where each lay, there shall be grass with reeds and rushes.  

A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, shall not go astray.  No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast go up on it; It shall not be found there. But the redeemed shall walk there,  And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with singing, with everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away."

After Isaiah 35 had been announced, I heard the Lord say, "And the desert shall blossom as a rose.  It shall happen all at once, and it shall happen suddenly."  Immediately I saw the desert come to life.  The sight was astounding and oh so beautiful!  Everywhere blossoms emerged: this dry, lifeless region became a spacious garden of color and beauty.  Then I came out of the gazing vision.  As I woke, I was still in awe of what I'd seen, because it was so beautiful.  I knew the Lord was speaking a promise of what He would be doing to our dry desert like lives.  He was going to rain His Presence upon us and we would emerge with life and beautiful blossoms."

HOLY HIGHWAY

"I saw that the people I would be talking to today had been driving on a real muddy road. There was just mud everyplace and it was so hard for you all to go any place. And this mud was getting on your windshields and you just could not see where to go. You were trying the best you knew how to drive in this muddy road. And the Philistines is what muddied up the wells. But Isaac cleaned them out, which is laughter, which is a type of Christ. And I was driving on this road and I'm thinking, Lord what have these people gone through here. Haven't you got a road better than this?

And He showed me a road that He was building. It's not ready yet. But it's on its way. And it was a straight and narrow way. Where you will be able to go more in an hour than you have been able to go in a week or a month. This is in the highway of holiness. This whole vision I had today is in this picture. There is 10 geese there and a straight and narrow way. This straight and narrow way is Isaiah 35. You can study it if you want to. I'm not going to read it to you or explain it to you. You want to know what you are coming to, then read Isa 35. It's a higher way then you have ever drove before and a straighter way. And it is the fast lane. And it wasn't quite finished. I believe it will be finished by Passover. When the tulips bloom. And I believe you will begin to see an escalation in where you are going and getting there."

RHEMA 5/16/06 FULL BLOOM AHEAD

PIX: I saw my computer friend who had to upload some kind of an upgrade to get where he wanted to go.

HEARD: See to it, all that ask, get an upgrade.

PIX: I saw many roses blooming.

PIX: I saw something like sands flowing out of a porthole, perhaps from the hour glass of time, although I did not see the hourglass.

HEARD: Full bloom. Have mercy will travel. Going on a boat.

WORD TO PONDER: FULL BLOOM AHEAD 5/16/06

Ask Me now for promotion, dear ones. Yes you have worked hard and accomplished so very much. The strings of your past where you have suffered loss and shame are snares. As you are reminded of them, let them be memorial stones of your lessons learned then give all that you are working towards back to Me. Sometimes you wonder of the road you have taken and have felt blind not knowing your way. I tell you FULL BLOOM AHEAD. You are on the right road, your road is straight ahead.

Die to your pursuits and hopes and let Me be the One Who sustains you, the work of your hands and the measurement of success. If You give it to Me, My peace will hold you and settle you of My Sovereign plan in your life. ALL things work together for good, even the losses in your life. It is My desire to bring you to full bloom - you and all that you do for My kingdom; rich in good fruit to benefit many.

Your works have not gone unnoticed, you work hard and it is evidence of your faith. Like Abraham, the fruit of your life shall be like the sands of the sea. The ship that you are on, leadership, is a great boat carrying many in need of passage. The seas are rough at times and storms are in the air. But My mercy will travel with you and all aboard. My 7 Spirits shall go with you in full measure. No good thing will I withhold from you, My favored one. Full bloom ahead.

Isa 35:6 NKJV

And the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the rose; 2 It shall blossom abundantly and rejoice, even with joy and singing. The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the excellence of Carmel and Sharon. They shall see the glory of the LORD, the excellency of our God. 3 Strengthen the weak hands, And make firm the feeble knees. 4 Say to those who are fearful-hearted, "Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the recompense of God; He will come and save you." 5 Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. 6 Then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the dumb sing.

WORDS TO PONDERS ABOUT THE HOLY HIGHWAY

WORD TO PONDER: DELIVERANCE TO THE RIGHT ROAD 12/28/99

Why do you question the road? For I have given you a road block against unholy appetites. That road leads to sin, to the loss of your passion for Me. Do you want a love grown cold? Rather, climb the holy highway, the straight and narrow way.

I hear your woes. Call upon Me, for it is not what you think. You belong to Me, and I take you for Myself. Instead of woes, pray for healing from the damage done from the road blocks. These road blocks I allowed because of My great love and passion for you. For I grieve when you become apathetic and grow cold. For Mine is the Kingdom, the power, and glory and the honor. I do the wonders and collect the multitudes.

I AM using these pressures to further clarify your character. I build My foundations level and smooth. Leave the progress up to Me. I do a perfect work. Do not fear these aggressive pressures, rather turn onto the right road, the road of righteousness. Allow these pressures to yield in yourself the good fruit of righteous living. Be candled in the flame and reflect My glory, My majesty.

For I have called you. I chose you. You are a deliverer for My sons. I send you on assignments where they desperately need your help. Do not fall asleep in apathy at this late hour. Do not be caught off guard by choosing the appetites of this world. For they lull you to sleep and open doors to demonic pressures. Do not be afraid, I will give you wings and speedy flight, delivering you from the snare of the enemy. I give you access, do not be afraid. Watch the enemy fall apart and fall upon his head. Smashing into the pit, he comes to his own destruction.

Be delivered according to the light I have given you. Obedience and righteous choices. Follow the right path. Overcome this. I have sent you confirmation, My deliverer. Be delivered and then deliver!

“A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, shall not go astray. No lion shall be there, nor shall any ravenous beast go up on it; it shall not be found there. But the redeemed shall walk there, And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with singing, with everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.” ( Isa 35:8-10 NKJ)

WORD TO PONDER: OVERCOME THE APPETITES OF THE WORLD 2/20/00

I know that you are battle weary and gun shy. You wince at each sound, wondering if it is another round of bullets. Relax, this is Me speaking. I AM asking you to stop wrestling with Me on this issue of holy living.

Yes, continue to remain upright, standing against the enemy. He seeks to accuse you in your every weakness. I AM a Holy God and I have not changed. To walk the pathway, the highway of holiness and remain safe from the enemy, you must keep watch on your own appetites. “Put a knife to your throat if you be a vessel given to appetite.” [Pro. 23:2] Instead have passion for Me and I will fill your cravings. If you continue to wrestle Me in this, the holy calling will become wounded and suffer shame and pain. The enemy is accusing day and night. It is up to you to stand in Me and keep your conscience void of offense and give him no extra ammunition.

Do you think you can arrive at a holy life without Me? It is impossible. But I still want your best effort and your own self discipline, so that I do not have to discipline you. I place before you the Mountain of your own weakness so that you will learn it is only at My feet that there is deliverance from your flesh. I have called you to divine visitation. Only keep diligent watch upon your flesh as you wait. Climb upon the holy highway and stay there.

“And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite.” (Prov 23:2)

WORD TO PONDER: HIGHWAY TO HOLINESS 2/24/01

I have been bringing you to the place of decision in your life where you would choose the holy and not the profane. For your heart has grown dull, your ears hard of hearing, and your eyes closed. You would not hear, see or understand because you chose to satisfy the flesh, rather than sell the satisfaction of your sins for the pearls of great price. It has been a long hard battle of wills, yours against Mine. Now yield and enter the highway of holiness.

There are benefits to walking this highway that you would have never known any other way. In this new place, even your mistakes will be blessed and be good gifts used for My purposes. The lion who seeks to devour your health, resources and very life will have no access to you. Even your sleep shall be sweet as I stop the ravenous beast from treading where he dare not.

As you turn around, the work of your hands shall be strengthened, your walk shall be steady. Your eyes will open, your ears will hear My voice. You shall leap with joy and My anointed Words will be upon your lips. Your very life will become pools of refreshment. Your sorrow and your sighing shall flee away.

“And a main road will go through that once deserted land. It will be named the Highway of Holiness. Evil-hearted people will never travel on it. It will be only for those who walk in God's ways; fools will never walk there. Lions will not lurk along its course, and there will be no other dangers. Only the redeemed will follow it. Those who have been ransomed by the LORD will return to Jerusalem, singing songs of everlasting joy. Sorrow and mourning will disappear, and they will be overcome with joy and gladness.” (Isa 35:8-10 NLT)

========

WORD TO PONDER: NEW ANOINTING AFTER THE TEST 6/04/01

After you have passed the test, you shall be healed and anointed with lightning power. I shall fill your tabernacle with My fullness and you shall walk in a new level of authority. This will be a great new beginning for you, after you have chosen a different level of commitment. What kind of a commitment? The choice to change directions and travel the right way. This is My holy highway, one without the bumps and dents of the demonic world. No unclean shall pass this way.

Isa 35:8 NKJV

A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for others.

========

WORD TO PONDER: DELUXE ROAD TRAVEL 6/18/01

There will come a day when you are traveling on My holy highway. It will be a deluxe road. Wonderful speed in answers to prayer, ministry, anointing will be available on this road. This will be a safe place in My Presence.

For now, I have made you my battle ax. When your battles are over, your enemies will be defeated beneath you. Within your hand shall be a scepter of great authority, blessing and healing. Creative miracles shall flow from your hands. My power shall be displayed to all nations.

Hab 3:3-7 NLT

His brilliant splendor fills the heavens, and the earth is filled with his praise! What a wonderful God he is! Rays of brilliant light flash from his hands. He rejoices in his awesome power. Pestilence marches before him; plague follows close behind. When he stops, the earth shakes. When he looks, the nations tremble. He shatters the everlasting mountains and levels the eternal hills. But his power is not diminished in the least!

========

WORD TO PONDER: GRADUATES PASSED UNDER THE ROD 10/14/03

Even as the shepherd inspected each individual sheep for spots as they passed under the rod, so I examine My sheep today. Once a year, whether My people know it or not, I check their progress.

This year, there are many who have graduated from wandering and passed their yearly circles. They heeded My Word and changed their ways. They put carnality under their feet and turned their backs on lust, violence and unholy entertainment. They washed their mouths from criticism, judgment and slander. They refrained from gossip, jesting and filthy words. Ambition and presumption died. These are the graduates of 2003. Well done, thou good and faithful ones.

Your minds, your wills, your hearts have been circumcised and dedicated, - holy, consecrated unto Me. You passed, you passed, you passed. I AM so pleased. You have graduated into new places, prepared and ready for great opportunities. The highway of holiness is now complete and ready for boarding. No beast shall touch those who walk its course. Go forth, and pass on, My graduates! Walk the walk and talk the talk. Great joy is coming your way.

“I will make you pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant; I will purge the rebels from among you, and those who transgress against Me.” (Ezekiel 20:37-38 NKJV)
