UPBEAT WITH JESUS

This is a special time with our Lord Jesus Christ and to walk as He wants us to walk.

 

  • If you will notice, that God said to Moses. "There is a place beside me, and you shall stand upon the rock” what a glorious promise, and that promise is for us today. For God is the same today, as he was yesterday. Hallelujah! I get so excited. There is, a place, beside me. Can you see it? Jesus Christ risen from the dead and ascended into heaven and took his place beside the Father, and we are in him. Hidden in him. And as we stay hidden in Christ, in the cleft of the rock, in his side, and looking out from his heart, as he looked out from the heart of his Father while he was on this earth, we will be able to see with the eyes of the Lord, the very body of Christ. We will know who is of him and who is not of him. Truly he is the Lord God Almighty who reigns and lives forever more. He is the great I am. The rock of ages. Listen to the word of the Lord.
  • My presence will go before you and I will give you rest. That rest is His Victory! There is a place beside me. You shall stand upon the rock. Are you tired of fighting, and never seeing the victory that our great God has won for us? Then I beg of you. Behold the glorious one who went before you. And the only way you will behold him is being in him, being hidden in his side. You will be able to see his body. Jesus, when he was praying to His Father, he called his people love gifts from His Father, and believe me, he paid an awful price for that love gift. His bride, his church. There are many false prophets who are out there to get money from the bride of Christ, coming dressed all up in sheep's clothes, but they are wolves inside, for they have no love for the Lord Jesus Christ, or for his body, and all they want is money, and what they can get out of her, and bring her down to the very dirt that they are in.
  • Not all who say, lord, lord, will enter into the kingdom of heaven. For those who just mention my name and have never been with me in personal relation, how can I know their voice? When they have just been in the religion, and not in relationship with me. Who can come to me? All who have broken hearts, all the down and outers, all those who know there need of me. But there are those who have never known me with a personal relationship, and they are out there to destroy. But you will recognize them by their fruit. The very fruit of the Holy Spirit, for it is by my spirit that my fruit comes forth. These wolves have no interest in me or in my work, but only to glorify themselves. And they are taking people with them; those who will not surrender to me in full surrender will fall into their traps, for I save those who are near to me. 
  • Not everyone who says lord, lord, and not everyone who performs great deeds are of me. Only those who allow me to be Lord of every part of their lives. I know the heart, and I look not on men's outward. For my Spirit does not dwell with everyone who says they are of me. It is those who are of a broken heart, broken over their sinfulness, and their sin, broken over the fact that they have not come to the place where I desire of them. My glory must and will be seen on this earth, and there is no one who can stop it. 
  • For I have a people who love me with their whole hearts, and they are in waiting for me to reveal them to the world. Yes there are a people I have hidden in me, and they will be persecuted, as I was mocked and laughed at by the religious people. I didn't come to save the righteous, but I came to save the sinner. I have compassion on the sinner, those who cannot get free, and they want to, I will one day show forth and reveal myself to them and they will be free of all chains of slavery to sin, for I have the power to save them who are crying out for my mercy and my grace. Those who want to be cleansed from all filthiness, I will reveal myself.. There is a difference between weakness and rebellion. 
  • Those who obey my commands I will reveal myself to. I came to save them, which are lost, I came to reveal myself and destroy the works of the devil. I came that you might have life and life more abundantly. I came to bring light out of darkness, to speak my word into your heart that you might rise up in my wholeness, and be healed. I am, that I am, and I will always be I am.
  • Be not anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer with thanksgiving make your request known unto God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your mind and your heart in Christ Jesus.
  • Be looking up to me, knowing that I who made you will perform all that I said I would perform. Be not anxious in well doing for I am the one who brings it into being, and I am the one who tears apart. It is true, that they who look to me and wait upon me shall renew their strength, and the strength that will be renewed is the joy that I impart to them because of my word. Will you allow me to do my perfect work in you?  For I am willing and able to do exceedingly abundantly far above all you could ever dream of or even think, or ask, according to the power that is with in you.  Come and allow me to have all I desire to have, so I may prove my very existence in this world. 
  • Many have fallen away because they have not kept there lights burning, be not like the foolish virgins, who thought they had all that they needed, and when I tarried, their lamps were dying out. Always be ready for you don't know the hour of the day that it is. Look at all the trees and know that the time is drawing near.  I am the Lord and there is no other.  Some of my people have their backs to me and not their faces. They have a business, but not a fellowshipping with me. It is not in the business that you will find me, but it is in the quietness of your fellowship with me, the very intimacy in me is where you will find the strength you need to overcome the wickedness of the world. Don't be like the unfaithful wife who runs to every one that would have her. This world is not your home, and the things of this world are not a permanent thing. Everything you see with your physical eyes is going to fade away, but it is the invisible that will remain. 
  • I am he who takes a person out of the miry clay and sets them upon a solid rock, I am that I am, and that will be my name for all eternity. Don't look to man for your existence, but look to me the hope of your salvation. Some have given up hope because they have started to trust in the things of this world. I will not have my people sleeping with the world, did you know that the world sleeps at night, you are the children of the day, and day and night cannot mix. Just like hot and cold cannot mix, you will have lukewarm, and I hate Luke warmness. I can't stomach it that is why I will spew it out of my mouth. It is rotten, and it is completely against my character. Don't be fooled by nice little words that sound like me but they are there own desires. 
  • When we ask God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ to be glorified in our lives He does just that. There is a cleansing that happens, and you will think that He has left you, and start to wonder about your salvation. But God knows exactly what is the hindrance in our hearts, and He goes and searches out all that is not of Him, and thereby cleanses it from us with His purifying fire. Let Him have His perfect work in you and you won’t regret it when He is finished, you will say along with Job said, when God is done with me I will come forth as pure gold.
