Falling in the Father’s arms:

In February 1991 there was a storm that touched my life. The weather was very cold and my heart was very broken. My two youngest sons and I had just moved from a very large home in Altamonte Springs into a very tiny one bedroom apartment in Tallahassee, Florida. My bedroom was a 70’s sofa that my brother and sister-in-law had given us. It didn’t have much support and the fabric was a little scratchy. I had given the boys the bedroom and had a bunk bed with their little TV and a Nintendo hooked up to it. They didn’t have many toys  other than a couple of stuffed animals, transformers and some matchbook cars.

They really didn’t understand what was going on at the time and had no idea how “the storm” that had hit us would change the course of our lives. God was then and still is now so merciful. I was so thankful when they were fast asleep so I could bury my head and cry out to God! He never, not once failed to comfort me in His everlasting arms.

I didn’t know how in the world I was going to survive as a single mom. All of the questions of Why, How and What were racing in my mind. I was displaced, disheartened and seemingly alone. I remember making up my bed on the couch, crawling under the covers and closing my eyes asking Jesus to help me go to sleep. The last thing I remember before falling asleep was my heavenly Father’s loving arms wrapped around me. I felt like I was being tucked into bed like a little baby. It is impossible to describe how safe, protected and loved I felt, on that 70’s sofa!

Another friend of mine from Alaska shares a similar story about falling in the Father’s arms.

“As she started going off the driveway, over the edge, she felt the arms of Jesus come around her and swaddle her so tightly like a baby and fill her with such peace that is so indescribable. Her face and body were inches from the windshield but never touched or hit anything. Her head started to go out the sunroof but Jesus was holding her down where she wouldn’t fly out. When the truck finally stopped, it had rolled over once and stopped on all four tires. Crystal had come to a rest about 30 ft below the driveway down the mountain without a single scratch, bruise, or break of any kind. She had glass all over her face and in her mouth yet nothing penetrated the skin. It was an absolute miracle from Jesus that she walked out of the vehicle that day.

Seven people including Rick. watched the accident happen, and we all knew that it was by our Savior’s grace that she was alive. Our truck was totaled but not even one scratch on Crystal…! HALLELUJAH! ” Rick Rumner, Outreach Missionary Priceless.Org AlaskaNo

I AM, THE STRAIGHT (MOST HIGH) WAY, &
I AM COMING!

(Prophetic Word from the Lord)

A voice of one calling: “In the wilderness prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Isaiah 40:3

There are many coming around a sharp curve and you don’t know if you are going to make it. You may have started out just right and are now going too fast or too slow. Those going too fast, just need to slow down to the pace given by the Holy Spirit and take the curves ahead at the pace set by the voice of God. Those who are going too slow (because of fear or other hindrances) are going to hinder those watching you. Just bite the bullet and let the Holy Spirit lead and guide you during times of uncertainty.

The Lord says, “I AM, THE STRAIGHT (MOST HIGH) WAY and I AM COMING!”

The enemy wants to sabotage our minds with attitudes of pride, arrogance, fear and doubt. If we are not careful we will be drawn into the enemy and begin doing his work rather than the Lord’s will.

Warning: It is critical to be in tune with the Lord and it will take concentrated effort to cast off every weight that causes us to be dragging along like an anchor being drug by a boat. Ask God to remove these weights and burdens and to help us put on His armor, trusting Him alone. He will enable us to stand against the wiles and works of the enemy. There are times when things that look and sound good, or like God, but simply put – are not sent from God. Try the spirits to see where they are coming from.

There is a deluge of enemy power attacking the minds and souls of not only unbelievers but followers of Jesus. Mind Control and the mind of Satan is evil, deceptive and destructive. Satan is the master of lies. These lies  always carry an element of truth and are causing confusion and death to many souls. We don’t have to be afraid! Put on the mind of Christ and He will deliver us, and show us how to help set the captives free.

Stand firm not by just reciting scripture but building a personal relationship with Jesus. Trust and obey THE ONE WHO IS THE WORD! The ONE TRUE, MOST HIGH AND EVERLASTING GOD will empower you to stand up and be confident. Pray with fervency, vigilance and above all learn to listen to the Holy Spirit!

Jesus said, “MY SHEEP HEAR AND KNOW MY VOICE… AND THEY FOLLOW ME!”

Many feel they have been shut down and are out for the count. YOU ARE NOT OUT OF HERE! Your ministry and relationship can only grow deeper! 

Many mature disciples have been, hit so hard that it appears things are hopeless. Some have even been drawn away, some have “the deer in the headlights” look about them, some are hurt and broken, sick and sickened. The battle is fierce but remember it is ONLY – BY MY SPIRIT, SAYS THE LORD THAT MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS WILL PREVAIL AND I HAVE SAID, “NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST THEM WILL PROSPER!”

This is the time to not judge or question but to pray and intercede on others behalf. The Lord is calling intercessors to pray for those many they will never meet this side of eternity.  MY PEOPLE who ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL ARISE! They can and will pass through the recent onslaught of storms that have been sent their way.

The Lord says, “I have allowed these storms to come, not to destroy, but to strengthen My People’s ability to war and to gather, win and equip souls for the days ahead. I AM THE GOD OF RENEWAL, RESTORATION, and RESTITUTION.

The only way to win the war and not give out is to wrestle not in your flesh, but war in the Spirit. Love, peace and joy in the power of MY HOLY SPIRIT will be the only things that will renew your strength. Ungodly REASONING and paralysis of analysis can be a pitfall, so just LISTEN FOR MY VOICE and be obedient TO DO WHAT I TELL YOU TO DO!

REST, REFUEL, AND RETURN TO YOUR FIRST LOVE  – GOD IS REKINDLING, RE-FIRING, RESTORING and CALLING FOR RESTITUTION FROM THE ENEMY 

Return to ME and receive MY INSTRUCTIONS. I have commanded some to be up and moving forward and declaring My Word. Others I have called for a season to be silent and pray. Do not get caught in comparing yourselves with others. Don’t get caught in the trap of grumbling and complaining.

I AM REKINDLING MY ARMY AND RESTORING my warrior bride. Even if you have been hit for years, don’t grow cold and weary in waiting.  There are fires burning in the most unusual places and I am sending a fire brand to ignite pockets across the fields.

2nd Warning:

IF YOU ARE SITTING AND RESTING, MAKE CERTAIN YOU ARE RESTING IN ME. DO NOT BE LED AWAY BY DOCTRINES OF DEVILS, DISAPPOINTMENTS AND STRONG DELUSIONS OR LIES FROM THE ENEMY!

The Lord wants you to know that He’s got you. It’s time to let go of both the steering wheel and the accelerator and let Holy Spirit prompt, lead, and direct you around the curves, the ups and downs, ins and outs of the tunnels, intersections, busy city highways, mountain passes and stopped up valleys.  Burn out and break downs will not happen if you follow my leading.

You are coming into the home stretch.  The MOST HIGH and STRAIGHT WAY IS BEFORE YOU…I AM THE WAY!

In the straight way ahead, you can accelerate your speed, be free from obstacles, and get the second wind I’ve promised you. This past season has been one of fruitfulness, although in many cases it may look as though the harvest was lost or it has died on the vine, or in the storms. The enemy would convince you that he has won the battle for those who are lost, backslidden or broken. This is a LIE! Fruit that was left on the tree or blown off by a storm and fallen to the ground may look dead and hopeless but MY RESURRECTION POWER will fertilize the seeds and bring forth new plants in the spring!

 I AM LIFE AND THE GIVER OF LIFE. I will bring forth MY ABUNDANT HARVEST IN THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN SHAKEN BY THE WINDS OF ADVERSITY! I WILL PRODUCE MORE AND MORE fruit bearing trees. Step away, walk away from the past and those things that are not MY SEED!”

This next season will be one of birthing new disciples and these will grow into MIGHTY DISCIPLES who will mentor and move in the Straight Way. This is a moving of the Holy Spirit that is deep underground and will be a shaking and moving in the earth.

The Lord is removing the congestion; the mountains will be made low and these that desire to come up over the warring of the flesh and evil spirits to the mountain of God will appear with me in the final hour.  I am preparing the way… a road that is indestructible and straight because;

The Holy Spirit will show you what to do, when to let go and GOD SAYS, I WILL MOVE YOU ALONG AND NONE OTHER.

I AM THE STRAIGHT HIGHWAY… and whosoever will follow ME will travel with ME.
