1/04/18  ADVANCING THROUGH CLASHING POWERS

HEARD AND SAW

CLASHING POWERS

Volunteer.  A bright day.  How do you see it?  I saw a blank sign being held up.  Which perspective?  Black and white.  A way to resolve this.  See things as I see them.  From heaven down.  Through a filter of love. 

And now what do you see?  Powers clashing.  This is exactly true.  You understand this. 

ADVANCING THROUGH IT

We want peace.  I know you do.  Trauma.  You are advancing.  It may not look like it, but you are. 

PSALM 118

As I was reading Psalm 118, the Psalm of the year I saw how black and white it is with the clashing of powers. 

On the bad side I see the negative words:

1.     In distress

2.     Hated

3.     Surrounded by hateful nations that want to destroy

4.     They thrust hard

5.     To cause me to fall

6.     Dealt severe chastisement

7.     For the purpose of death

HOWEVER

On the good side I see

1.      His goodness

2.     His mercy

3.     He sets me in a broad place

4.     The Lord helped me

5.     The right hand of the Lord does valiantly on my behalf

6.     I will live and not die nor be given over the death

7.     I will go through the gates of righteousness

8.     He has shown me His light

9.     Send prosperity oh Lord

10. His mercy for me endures FOREVER

Psalm 118:1-29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endures forever. 2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy endures forever. 3 Let the house of Aaron now say, that his mercy endures forever. 4 Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endures forever. 5 I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a broad place. 6 The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? 7 The LORD takes my part with them that help me: therefore shall I see my desire upon them that hate me. 8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. 9 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes. 10 All nations encompassed me about: but in the name of the LORD will I destroy them. 11 They encompassed me about; yea, they encompassed me about: but in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 12 They encompassed me about like bees; they are quenched as the fire of thorns: for in the name of the LORD I will destroy them. 13 You have thrust hard at me that I might fall: but the LORD helped me. 14 The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation. 15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tabernacles of the righteous: the right hand of the LORD does valiantly. 16 The right hand of the LORD is exalted: the right hand of the LORD does valiantly. 17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the LORD. 18 The LORD has chastened me severely: but he has not given me over unto death. 19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the LORD: 20 This gate of the LORD, into which the righteous shall enter. 21 I will praise you: for you have heard me, and have become my salvation. 22 The stone which the builders rejected has become the head stone of the corner. 23 This is the LORD'S doing; it is marvellous in our eyes. 24 This is the day which the LORD has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. 25 Save now, I beseech you, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech you, send now prosperity. 26 Blessed be he that comes in the name of the LORD: we have blessed you out of the house of the LORD. 27 God is the LORD, who has showed us light: bind the sacrifice with cords, even unto the horns of the altar. 28 You are my God, and I will praise you: you are my God, I will exalt you. 29 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endures forever.

WORD TO PONDER ADVANCING THROUGH THE RIGHTEOUS GATES 1/04/18

Dear ones, even if your enemies seek to destroy you, even though they give severe, stinging blows and cause you to pray in distress… My mercy for you endures forever.  In the clashing powers between dark and light, My right hand is valiant on you behalf.  I AM here to help you!  I have NOT given you over to death, it is the opposite.  I have decreed you shall LIVE and not die.  I will cause you to ADVANCE through the righteous gates because You trust Me and walk in righteousness.  You shall be enlarged.  You shall prosper.  You shall see My light!  Always remember dear ones, My mercy over your life endures forever.  You belong to Me.

Psalm 118:1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: because his mercy endures forever.
