I have brought you this way that I might teach you not to look upon those things that are visible but to trust me, he who is invisible. I say I have spoken to you many times. And I have given you many promises. I have drawn you to myself and I have asked you to stay on your faces and to seek me, to humble yourselves to seek me. To prepare yourselves through seeking me, to know me, to know my Word. It has been my desire to draw you to myself, to take you to places in me that you have never been, to depths of me that you have never been.

I want you to know me, for I am God, the Creator of all things. There is much about myself that I want to reveal to you, and I have called you into communion with me and into intimacy with me. I have taught you to wait on me, and to be patient. I have not given you immediate reward but it has not been out of a lack of love, but rather because of my love for you. It is not my wish that any would be destroyed by the gifts I give them. It is for that reason that I asked you to prepare yourself, and to seek my face, and to know me, and to know my Word, that you might not be destroyed. It is my desire to give you good gifts and I have spoken to you and I have promised you many things; that among those things are gifts for the miraculous. I desire that all men everywhere would know me and know of my love and my great goodness, and I desire to pour out my gifts. But it is you, my body, that my gifts must operate through! That is why I ask you to humble yourselves and to seek my face that you might not want glory for yourselves, but that all glory would go to me that men might know me, that they might know of my saving power, and my healing power, and my great love. I want my body to be healthy and whole. I desire to work my gifts through you.

I have spoken to you and told you that I have called you for purposes of reaching the lost. I have told you that I have placed in your hands the balm of Gilead, that there might be healing for my people. I have told you it is my desire to bring restoration to those who are broken. It is my desire to give my people this city. And I have no body but yours. You must be my body. You, as an individual, must be my body. You must be my hands and my feet and my mouth and my heart. And corporately, you must work together to be my body, my hands and my feet and my mouth and my heart. You must humble yourselves and prefer your brother and your sister to yourself.

Everything I have spoken to you is sure. Everything I have spoken to you is true. I want you not to be fearful, but I want you to be bold and courageous. I want you to be like the great heroes of faith. I want you to believe in me. I want you to trust in me for the stopping of lions mouths, for the raising of the dead. I want you to trust in me. I am God and I change not. I have been the same forever. And I look for a people who will trust in me, who will obey me, who will allow my Spirit to live in them and operate through them. I am looking for vessels of honor, that I can take off the shelf at their appointed time and use them.

I have given gifts to men. I have given you gifts, I have placed gifts within each one of you. I have placed gifts in this body. Gifts of healing. Gifts of faith. I have placed gifts in this body. Gifts of wisdom. Gifts of knowledge. I have placed my gifts in this body. And I say that it is time for you to stir up the gifts that I have given you. It is time for you to stand up and believe in me. It is time for you to stop listening to the Enemy, to the Liar, to the Deceiver; it is time for you to listen to me, and what I say! I say: I am God of the victory. I am God of life, I am God of every blessing under heaven and earth. All things are mine to bestow as I wish and I will withhold no good thing from my children.

And I say, now is the time. My Spirit is moving across the face of this earth. I am speaking to my sons and daughters in every corner of this earth. I am speaking and I am calling to them. I am calling out my elect. The time is short and I have spoken and spoken and asked my people to prepare themselves for this time. I say that the time is short. The time is short. The time is short. But the fields are white unto harvest. And I will pour out my Spirit and I will move and I will save to the uttermost.

And I ask you, I ask you, to awake out of sleep and step into the light and walk in the light and walk in my Spirit. My hand is upon you, my hand is upon you! I say, do not be afraid to proclaim the good news that I am alive, that I live! Oh, I say, go out to the highways and the hedges and compel them to come in, that my house may be full! Don’t fear the scoffers and the mockers. They are no concern of yours—I will deal with them. You must be about my business. The things I have in store you cannot even imagine. Some of you have lost heart, and some of you have lost faith! But I say to you, let me restore that to you. Let me restore that to you. I am the Lord your God. I am the Lord your God. You are my people, called by my name. I have given you my authority, I have given you the authority of my Word, I have given you the authority of my Spirit. I have done all that I can do. I have given you all that I have to give. I have given it to you freely, it is yours, I ask you to take it, to embrace it, to believe it. Continue to look to me. Continue to look to me. Continue to look to me. I will not fail.
