As you find yourself in Me, hidden in My presence-consciousness, no weapon formed against you shall prosper. You will find yourself in the sea of silence – reverberating with the sound of My glory – totally enveloped in the power of My reverberating Word, which is your lamp, your light your comfort.
Lean into that Presence sound and let it work out My will in you and through you for My glory. It is the place of oneness, of unison, perfectly synchronized with Me, in Me, in Us.
Enjoy our Love, joy and peace and let it shine into your surroundings, dispelling all darkness.

Beloved in the Lord,
Aside
I recently had a dream, seeing parallel lines being drawn. Then I heard,
“ALIGNMENT WITH HEAVEN – REQUIRING TOTAL HOLINESS UNTO THE LORD”.
Old systems and strongholds are being broken and a purging is taking place where nothing unholy can stand. This is part of the preparation of the Bride of Christ.
“EVERY TIME SOMETHING IS PURGED OUT OF YOU, THE RAIN OF MY SPIRIT FALLS AS A REFRESHING FOR NEW FRUITFULNESS.”
2 Timothy 2:21 Amplified Bible (AMP)
“Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things [which are dishonorable—disobedient, sinful], he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified (set apart for a special purpose and) , useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.”
Unholy vessels cannot contain God’s glory.
Knowing that we have been bought with the incredible price of the holy blood of the Lamb, no compromise with darkness can stand. Light and darkness do not mingle!
“For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us.”
2 Corinthians 4:6-7 New King James Version (NKJV)
“Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”2 Corinthians 7:1 (KJV
PROGRESSIVE REVELATION In the GLORY
Aside
I received this Word in 2011 and I feel that it is very applicable now, especially since there is much emphasis on prophetic intercession in this season. As we listen for the new heavenly sound (that God is saying “now” over the situations we pray for), we can release it as prophetic declarations in the glory and it will manifest swiftly.
RECEIVING A FRESH SOUND FROM HEAVEN in PROGRESSIVE REVELATION
I had a very powerful dream:
A new powerful sound was coming forth, seemingly from a recording. Nobody knew where it came from, but it was like the sound of many waters. It seemed familiar as though I knew it from a previous revival, but at the same time it seemed unknown. I knew it was coming from heaven and then it was as though I was enveloped in a river of this sound. I was totally overwhelmed by it and drenched in the power of this sound.
In the next scene in the dream I was in a meeting of a local church, still carrying the impact of the sound that I just experienced. A video was playing (of a previous meeting) and words were on the screen against a background of blue and green streamers, being waved around in worship – and another new sound was coming forth – never heard before!
I could make out a sentence of the song on the screen about unity. The people were abandoned to the Lord in extravagant worship.
At the same time a new video was being recorded by an unknown video-and-sound- technician (who was very knowledgeable and whom I have never seen before), while the head intercessor (whom I know) was dancing under the anointing against the background of the video. The intercessor looked much younger than in reality and the whole church was taken up in worshipping the Lord through the dance-intercession. It seemed that her youth has been renewed and also her physical and spiritual energy.
I realized that for those who are in one accord in prayer, waiting upon the Lord, worshiping together, a new sound will be released from heaven through the Holy Spirit, igniting the church with a fresh fire, exploding in song and dance. New media technicians will emerge, recording these glory explosions, taking it to the nations and the fire of the Holy Ghost will spread around the globe.
God is awakening His Bride to the power of corporate Worship-Intercession where a river of revelation is released every time when we rise above our present situations, releasing it all to the Lord in agreement with Him as our Intercessor who lives to intercede for us. This is Philippians 4:6-7 in action:
“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”
The Word shows us the pattern: first by prayer and supplication we bring our requests to God, releasing it to Him in faith and trust, which is expressed in thankful praise that takes us up in the glory of His Presence. Then the river of peace starts to flow and in it we are transformed from one degree of glory to the next. Here, in the corporate anointing, in one accord, we get saturated in His Presence and empowered by the sound of His voice in fresh revelation upon revelation to rise up and flow in our different gifts and anointings to do the works of the ministry.
Revelation is progressive as we position ourselves in worship-intercession to receive the fresh sound from heaven, getting drenched in it and allowing the flow of the river to bring us in a new place in Christ.
Living in the freedom of the Spirit
Aside
Beloved, be careful that you do not get entangled under a yoke of slavery, putting yourselves into bondage of have-to’s and should-do’s. It is for freedom that Christ has set us free from the law of do’s and don’ts so that we can serve Him in obedience to His will out of love!
The world system is a system of performance, which can easily ensnare us to live in the flesh instead of being led by the Spirit of the living God. Bowing under the yoke of pressure, will cause you to be driven, which is opposed to being led by the Spirit.
All and everything has to flow from God as our Source in a free flow of resurrection power.
That which is performance orientated will have the smell of flesh on it with no anointing and as a result, no power.
Let our choice in every situation be to live freely in the peace and joy of the Spirit of life!
Gal.5:1: “Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.” KJV

Power over Snakes and Scorpions…
|
God speaks in parables and gives you understanding line upon line. After the FB video I shared, revelation has started to unfold and I sense this is a very “Now” word for the body of Christ: The situation in the natural was that I was sitting on an enclosed porch, eating my breakfast. When I got up to go into the house I noticed a movement from the corner of my eye and lo and behold a snake was laying on a reed screen next to where I was sitting, with its head poised, looking straight at me, tongue wiggling.
Needless to say I was caught by surprise and shocked since it was an enclosed porch and I didn’t notice it when I was sitting there. My first reaction was to open the porch door and to close the glass sliding door to the living room. At first I was contemplating whether I should just let it go, hoping that it would go outside through the open door of the porch. At this point the scripture came up in my spirit, “Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” Luke 10:19 This changed my mindset and my whole approach as I received the Sword of the Spirit. I knew I had to kill the snake and crush the head, although I was still apprehensive (remembering Paul who was bitten in his hand), but then reminded that he shook it off and it did not harm him!
I looked for something to kill it with and found a stainless steel spatula that is used for a barbecue. It had a serrated edge on the one side and a sharp edge at the bottom. Now I was after the snake, my heart pounding. But I knew I had to go after it. At first I was chopping it with the front end, but made no impact on it. It was moving towards the outside door or the porch and again, for a moment, I thought to let it go, but suddenly I realized that it was a prophetic act and as the anointing came on me, all fear left. Another Scripture came up, Psalm 18:36-38(NKJV) …You enlarge my steps under me, And my feet have not slipped. I pursued my enemies and overtook them, And I did not turn back until they were consumed. I shattered them, so that they were not able to rise; They fell under my feet.” I cleft the head of the snake in two and had a sense of tremendous triumph in the spirit. About two weeks before, we also found a snake on the same porch and let it go because it was a black Florida snake, which is not poisonous. We found the small openings on either side of the porch which was the only way in which it could enter, BUT I didn’t close it off! Guess what!? God was loudly speaking to me! PROPHETIC INTERPRETATION: When pondering upon the prophetic significance I sensed that God was demonstrating a warning and at the same time an empowering through His Word. Several points stood out: 1) I was caught by surprise and shocked by the fact that it was so close to me and I didn’t see it. Message: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour” (1 Pet.5:8 KJV). Remember, the enemy loves the surprise element, but forewarned is forearmed. We have nothing to fear, for Christ has already wrought the victory for us! Be clothed in the armor of light (Rom.13:12), which is the same as described in Eph.6:10-18 and stay under the shelter of the Almighty in the secret place of His Presence (Ps.91). 2) I was intimidated with fear and contemplated to let it go. (This snake was not black, but brown with stripes and a yellow belly – about 3-4 ft long and I realized it could be poisonous, which was confirmed later). The Word of the Lord came up in my spirit and gave me strength. Message: We can never give in to fear, but have to draw on the resurrection power of the Holy Spirit to overcome, trusting the Lord for protection while being armed with the Sword of the Spirit! And do not think or hope the devil is just going to go away. He is looking for entry into your house! 3) We can never give up halfway, but have to pursue our enemy until his head is crushed. Message: Pursue the devil till there is nothing left of him. Do not have mercy on the devil, but have mercy on the person hosting him. 4) I had a warning, but didn’t close the openings. Friends, I sense that the Lord is warning us to be on full alert for the enemy is sneaky and subtle. He will come in through any opening in our hedges. Let us ask the Lord to show us anything in our lives that can give the enemy an entry way. Then deal with it! Do not postpone or neglect this instruction. Repent of every sinful thought, word and action that you know of. If the Holy Spirit shows you anything, repent of it, forgive everybody in the situation, test your heart for wrong thoughts and attitudes, bless your enemies and make sure your conscience is clear. Take communion on a regular basis and plead the blood of Jesus over you and your household and everything in your territory. SING A NEW SONG OF VICTORY In my quiet time with the Lord this morning I became so aware of the fact that He is listening for the sound that we carry. Is it a sound that glorifies Him? Is it praise and worship and adoration for who He is, or is it self-centered? Let our focus shift back to His glory and our tongue rejoice in His goodness and grace! He always leads us in triumph! (2 Cor.2:14) Let those new songs come forth out of your spirit, glorifying the Lord for His magnificence! And let Him sing over you with rejoicing! (Zeph.3:17) “Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned.” (1 Tim.1:5 KJV) THE SPIRIT OF JEZEBEL This is one of the “snakes” that we have to be watchful for, since it is very sneaky and devious. It is a seducing, deceiving spirit that brings confusion and is out to destroy our destiny. The Jezebel spirit is targeting leaders and expecially prophets, creeping into businesses and ministries to usurp authority. Sometimes we get ensnared by this spirit without realizing it and it is wise to get fully acquainted with all its strategies. You can step into your God-given authority in Christ to overcome this spirit so that you can be freed up to fulfill your destiny in Christ, living a life of victory and blessing! We have great news for you: We are ready to launch a FREE ONLINE COURSE with PDF teachings, video’s and Power Point presentations to equip you with the knowledge of Jezebel’s “workings”. The course contains powerful prayers for deliverance and you can also interchange experiences, thoughts and questions in the comments. This FREE ONLINE COURSE, “STOP TOLERATING JEZEBEL” will be available in this week, so keep watching for the link.

Resurrection Power
As we are approaching the Feast of Passover, I sense that our Father is doing a deep preparation in those who are seeking the Lord’s face. If we are too busy spending time in separation to hear His heart beat, we will miss what He wants to do in us. I sense that it is almost as if He is busy with Continue reading

Break Through, Break Out, Break Free
This is a season in which the Lord is doing a special work in His Bride.
26 So that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the Word, 27 That He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such things [that she might be holy and faultless].
Eph.5:26-27 Amp.
I heard the Lord say, “Break through! Break out! And Break free!”
Confinements in our souls cause us to be stuck so that we cannot be what God has predestined us to be! If you can “see” beyond your walls, you can have your breakthrough! Continue reading
