3/14/08 HOW TO RESTORE CHURCH POWER
HEARD:
Naked.
PIX: I saw the action of pulling off a piece
of clothing over someone’s head.
Rev 16:15 NKJV
"Behold, I am coming as a thief. Blessed is he who
watches, and keeps his garments, lest he walk naked and
they see his shame."
HEARD:
Restoring
church power. How do we do that? Obedience to
scripture. Come beloveds, repent with
Me. I came to restore you into alignment.
PIX: I saw a folded white linen garment that
was being handed over to a person.
HEARD: Show them how. Tell it like it is.
Find the equation. Do you have something to show for it?
Wealth and holiness. Wealth beyond measure, not just
your own boundaries.
Rev 3:17-20 NKJV
Because you say, 'I am rich, have become wealthy, and
have need of nothing' — and do not know that you are
wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked — 18 I
counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire,
that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may
be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be
revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you
may see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten.
Therefore be zealous and repent.

WORD TO PONDER: YOUR CHANGE WILL RESTORE MY POWER
3/14/08
All across the earth people are asking where is My
miraculous power in the church. I AM here dear ones, to
restore what has been lost. How? It is through
repentance. Repentance is a change that transforms you
to think differently about the positive and negative
promises in My Word and how that directly applies to
your life. As you see this truth it will teach you to
fear Me and the power of My Word in sowing and reaping.
Precious ones, it is all very clear if you would simply
obey.
I AM here to restore you into alignment and obedience
with My Word. I AM here to wash all the defilement from
your life. I AM drawing your soul to be purged. I AM
washing your defiled conscience. I AM applying fuller’s
soap to your thought life. I AM flushing your
emotions. As you willingly offer to Me what does not
align with scripture, I wash you with My blood and cover
your nakedness from sin. As you heed My Word and change
your ways, I wash the spots and filth and bring you
through divine transformation where My image is a pure
reflection in your life.
My transforming power to change is through refining
fires. I AM drawing all the dross to the surface
through My refiner’s fire. I will open your eyes to
see the dross and give you grace to surrender it to
Me. True wealth is gold purchased through the great
cost of going through My refiner’s fire. The wealth of
My power comes from learning obedience to My Word
through a holy walk. The fruit of genuine repentance is
change and My response to your change is the restoration
of My power in your midst.
Deut 4:24 NKJV
For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous
God.
Mal 3:2-3 NKJV
And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a
refiner's fire and like launderers' soap. He will sit
as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify
the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver,
that they may offer to the LORD
An offering in righteousness.
Rev 3:3-6 NKJV
Remember therefore how you have received and heard;
hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I
will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know
what hour I will come upon you. 4 You have a few names
even in Sardis who have not defiled their garments; and
they shall walk with Me in white , for they are worthy.
5 He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments,
and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life;
but I will confess his name before My Father and before
His angels. 6 "He who has an ear, let him hear what
the Spirit says to the churches."'
Rev 7:14-17 NKJV
And I said to him, "Sir, you know." So he said to me,
"These are the ones who come out of the great
tribulation, and washed their robes and made them white
in the blood of the Lamb. 15 Therefore they are before
the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His
temple. And He who sits on the throne will dwell among
them. 16 They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst
anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat; 17
for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will
shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of
waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their
eyes."
1 Cor 6:9-11 NKJV
Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit
the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither
fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
homosexuals, nor sodomites, 10 nor thieves, nor
covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners
will inherit the kingdom of God. 11 And such were some
of you. But you were washed , but you were sanctified,
but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and
by the Spirit of our God.
Rev 19:13-14 NKJV
He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His
name is called The Word of God. And the armies in
heaven, clothed in fine linen , white and clean,
followed Him on white horses. |
