The Child Shall Overcome

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for allowing me to walk with you and thank you for feeding my soul with thoughts from you. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son, welcome to the club this morning. Yes, I am able to talk to you and to give you visions at any time of the day or the night, as long as you start the day with me and stay close at all times.

Look Martin, What do you see?

Me: Lord, I see men, big and strong, with muscles like bronze, mighty warriors against whom, none seem able to stand. They wield a sword of hate and have sharp knives of injustice. Around their knuckles they have bound spikes of oppression. On their feet are great boots that trample on the poor and the fallen. Out of their mouths they curse the Lord's people, and their eyes blaze with the red light of lust, greed and anger.

Lord: What you see are those who have determined to destroy the Church and strike a blow against Me. Do not be deceived by their looks; they are not what they seem! To the world, deceived and beguiled by Satan, that is what they look like, unassailable, immovable and capable of great destruction. Look again son. What do you see?

Me: I see one of these men, naked and bound with chains of iron to a huge iron frame. Every muscle in his body is straining against the chains but all he is doing is causing himself injury and pain. On his face is a look of humiliation and anguish, but the fire in his eyes is not so bright as before. Before him are a group of children, in their early teens. They are preparing food. It looks like soup, and bread! The smell of the soup is rising and curling around the mans nose, causing him to twitch and his stomach muscles to spasm. The children are laughing and singing. They are not laughing at the man, but through happiness, as children do!

Lord: What you see is what I am doing in your day. The young and inexperienced, the weak and those overlooked by the strong, have overcome the strong man, and have bound him with chains. The chains they have used are wrought with the truth, making them unbreakable. The iron frame is firmly fixed on the rock which is Jesus and is immovable The soup and bread they are preparing for him is the Word of God, the gospel of Jesus. This man is heaving and twitching as the smell reaches him, because all his life he has been starved of the truth and the good news. He has been fed with only hate and lies. Have you noticed, he  is now alone? I have separated him from his companions. They too are being held in isolation from each other. This is so that they are not distracted or deafened by each other. Together they perpetuate the lie, but alone the lie begins to crumble. What more do you see?

Me: The soup is ready. The children have climbed on to steps and are feeding him with spoons. After initial hesitation he is eager to consume as much as possible. Ah! I can hear his mind, his thoughts! He is thinking, "If I can eat as much as possible I can regain my strength and escape this bondage." The more he eats the less red his eyes are. The less his muscles strain against the chains. All the time he has been fed, the children are singing. As they climb down the steps to refill the bowl, the man relaxes and sags against his chains. Sweat is pouring from him, and tears are running like a river down his face.

Lord: As the lie begins to crumble, the man is open to the good news about Jesus and feeds like a starving man. At first he thinks he can find the flaw in what he hears. After all, nothing he has yet heard has ever stood the test of time! But slowly, like a dripping tap, constant and persistent, the truth of Jesus seeps through the crumbling defences. The fire of conviction and anger are extinguished and replaced by the blue of the sky that reflects the glory of God. As he relaxes, the chains become less bondage and more support. Trying to keep hold of the lie, even when it doesn't fit the facts or ring true in his heart, has taken its toll. The result is a bath of sweat which washes all the pain and grime of sin and shame to the surface, and the tears which fall from his eyes are first of shame, and then change to repentance and relief. Yes, relief, as the truth begins to penetrate his last defences. Now son, what do you see?

Me: I see a broken man, hanging naked and limp, all the toughness of his body relaxed as though in death! His eyes are closed and his head hangs down. Then, as I looked, I saw one single drop of blood fall on his head, and even as I looked, it spread until he was covered with scarlet! Then, starting at the top of his head and working its way down to the soles  of his feet, the blood changed into a cleansing water, which washed him from head to foot, as clean as any shower or soap could clean. As I looked again, I saw that the chains had gone, as had the iron frame, and he was clothed in a robe, pure and white as snow.

Lord: You see well, for it is the blood of Jesus alone, that is truly able to wash away your sins and cleanse you from all unrighteousness. It is only when you are clothed in the robe of righteousness, that is Jesus, that you are able to come into my presence.

Now I will tell you what the vision means! The man you saw was just one of many, who oppose the truth. They are scientists, politicians, businessmen, teachers, and men and women from every profession and walk of life. Their sole aim, because they have been deceived by Satan, is to rid the world of the truth found in Jesus, and to try and write Me out of the text books! Because so many Christians have been asleep, or not firm enough in their faith, these men and women have made their position so strong, that even some of the elect are deceived by them!

However, in your day, I have come up against them and confronted them. In the scientific world, I am confounding their theories, and tying them in knots, which don't make sense to them! In the political world, I am toppling governments and leaders, not by bringing them up against a stronger foe, but by raising up the weak and the helpless. It is I who have caused the financial markets to crumble and fall. For too long mankind throughout the world, has been putting all his trust in wealth, and so-called economics. From now on, only those who put their trust in me will prosper.

In all these different fields, it is the young and inexperienced who will prevail. It won't be the academics who present the truth to the scientists, but those who know and love me, those whom I choose to reveal the mysteries of the universe. It will not be politicians who build a better world, it will be visionaries, people with a heart of love and a will of steel. It will not be financiers and bankers that create wealth, but those who hold the secret of love, one for another.

Many things that you have all grown used to and consider the basics of life, will pass away and you will be forced to think again about priorities! But those who stay close to me, those who place their trust in me, those who allow me to wash them in the blood of Jesus, they will endure and will inherit eternal life.

Do not despise the weak, nor wander from the truth. Do not place your hope on men or nations. Turn to me in repentance and trust, and I will show myself to you as the Lord who saves, the Lord your strength and the Lord your provider. I love you.

Love what I love

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning and for listening and sharing. We love you too.

My dear children, to become the people I want you to be, you must first lay down the things that I hate, then take up the things that I love!

I hate anger, greed, selfishness and aggression. I hate injustice, oppression, exploitation and lust. I love justice, self sacrifice, and peace. I honour those who stand up to sin and protect the weak and the raise up the fallen. I help those who feed the hungry, clothe the naked and bind up the wounds of the injured. I speak through those whose message is peace and reconciliation. I give power to those who spread the good news of Jesus.

Children, the days are upon you when many will come from the east and the west, the north and the south, and will cling to you, and beg you to tell them how to find Me! Do not shake them off, or turn them away, for I have sent them to you! Lift up your eyes to the heavens, rejoice with a loud voice and tell your story. Tell them of the Saviour, and of the loving purposes I intend for all who come to me. Do not be afraid to speak my name, for it is through the name of Jesus, that men are saved. There is no other name under heaven, whereby men are saved!

Tell of my love, and show them how to hear my voice, and draw into my presence. Stretch out your hands and heal the sick, clothe the naked, feed the hungry, and rebuild the broken in body and spirit, with my encouraging words.

Let my light shine through you and let your light shine.

Children, do not focus upon the depressing and the gloomy, but lift your eyes and focus upon Me. See the things I am doing and the goal to which you must strive. See, I have set before you a vision of beauty and light, with the sounds of children laughing and playing, the birds singing and the sounds of a nature at harmony with itself and in Me. See the things of beauty I am showing you, and hold them always before you. Hold also before you the vision of man at peace with man, and nation with nation. Keep it before you, even when the 'reality' around you defies what I am showing you. Make that vision yours and make it a reality in your life.

Pray for those who hate, and do evil. Pray My power will break into their sealed lives, setting them free! Pray for peace between nations, and pray for those who are even now fighting for freedom from oppression. My will is that all men and women everywhere, those who know me and those who don't, will live in peace with one-another, in freedom from all oppression, and with true justice and righteousness as their standard. These things can only come about through Jesus, who has bought them with his own blood.

I love you. Share my love with all around you.

Rebuild My Temple

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for all the joy of the Nativity and for a lovely day yesterday. Keep us Lord in the centre of your will, that we may do what is right and pleasing in your sight. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning and for walking with us, I love you too.

This is what the Lord the Almighty says to the leaders and people of the nation:

I want you to give careful thought to all your actions and all your deeds. Over the past seven decades of peace you have planted more grain than any nation before you, yet, for all your work, you have harvested little. In those decades your food has been more plentiful than ever before in history, so that even the poor are well fed. Although you feed until you become gross and bloated, you never seem to have enough. You consume more fine wine and exotic drinks than the kings of old ever even dreamed of, yet you are never satisfied, or have your fill. You clothe yourselves in the finest garments, and nothing is too grand for you, yet you are never warm, or grand enough. Even your most modest wardrobe is grander than that of the kings and princes in days gone by, yet you are not kings, nor are kings or princes mindful of you! Individually you receive wages and bonuses, that would have amounted to the GNP of a whole nation in the years of your forefathers. Yet you place it in purses with holes in, and you invest in the folly of bankers, and with fools!

This is what the Lord Almighty says to you:

Give careful thought to your ways, for I am calling you to give an account of your stewardship! Give thought to why I have poured out upon you such riches and luxuries. Now look upon the temple of your heart. Your heart was given to you to be my temple, the place where I, the Lord your God, might dwell within you. How hard it is for me to enter that temple within you, while it is filled with the loathsome idols of greed, selfishness and lust!

My house shall be called 'A house of prayer for all the nations', and your hearts must become 'the temple of the Holy Spirit!'

The time has come my children, for a cleansing and rebuilding project. For if I am to heal and save you as a nation, My temple must be established in the midst of you.

See how I have blown away with the breath of my mouth, the idols that you have so long worshipped. They are gone like ash blown by a draught, like leaves caught by the autumn wind! The wealth of the nation, built on the greed of men, I have scattered. The harvest of the carelessly scattered seed I have ruined, and the fine silks and suits of wool and cotton I have handed over to moths! I have called for a deluge to cleanse the once fertile land, and for drought to dry up the flowing rivers, that water the ground. I have called upon the four winds to blow upon the Earth and I shake even the tallest mountains and the deepest seas. Man-made dynasties are falling, and rulers shake with fear. These calamities that I have rained upon the Earth, will remain, until my temple is rebuilt in your hearts, and my word is sown freely upon the Earth.

Stop building your own houses and lining your own beds. Turn back to me and rebuild in your hearts the temple of the Lord the Holy Spirit. Gather the stones of prayer and the timber of My word. Collect the fabric of righteousness and the gold and silver of generosity and love. Build and furnish My temple that it may be a palace for King Jesus to sit. Bring Him your offerings, the first fruits of your praise and worship, for He alone is worthy to be praised, for by His blood, shed on the Cross, He has set men free from the bondages of sin.

The time for secrecy is over, the time of the great conspiracy of silence, is past. The fiery dragon of fear has been overcome by your Saviour. Rise up, men and women of God, and build God's temple in your hearts.  Proclaim with a loud voice, "Jesus is Lord!" Let the arches of Heaven resound with your shouts of praise.

No more shall my people be ruled by the god of money, or silenced by the god of political correctness. I am the Lord your provider. I have placed My Word in your mouth, for you to speak without let or hindrance. "I am the Lord your God, you shall have no gods before me!" I love you.

Pictures and Visions

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for your love and for allowing me to walk with you each day. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Welcome to the club this morning and thank you for walking with us and sharing all your thoughts. We too want to share our thoughts with you, because we love you.

Children, I have spent time you talking about the need to be still before me and to wait and listen to me. Today I want to talk to you about seeing things with your mind's eye! Visions and pictures.

Visions have been a part of mankind's experience of me since the earliest times. If you look closely at your thinking processes, you will find that a very great deal of it is pictorial. Not many people think in words only, and amongst those who do, most are actually suppressing the visionary side of their mind! Visions and pictures are a very important part of human life, and are essential to communication. It has been said that, "One picture is worth a thousand words." Looking at it from another perspective, it could be said that, "There are not enough words to describe what you see in one glance."

In holy scripture, you will also find pictures and lots of visions. Both in the Old Testament and the New, visions played an important part in the sharing of My message. It wasn't just holy men and women, who saw visions and dreamed dreams. Indeed, I have often used visions and dreams to get through to people who don't know me. A vivid dream or vision is a very disturbing thing, for one who doesn't have the means to interpret or understand what he is seeing. That is why the great king of Assyria called upon Daniel to interpret for him, and Pharaoh called on Joseph. So ingrained into Peter's tradition was the idea of what is clean or unclean, he would not have listened to me if I had just told him to go with Cornelius; he would have excused himself, saying that he had just imagined that it would be all right. So I had to use a vision or waking dream to convince him.

There are other ways I use pictures. For example the stories that Jesus told all paint a picture in the mind, Indeed many of the events in his life are like a series of pictures. The feeding of the 5,000, the stilling of the storm, the lost sheep. This is why the world is full of beautiful art works depicting the events and stories in the life of Jesus. This is why you teach your children with pictures, before you clutter their minds with writing.

In your western civilisation, for the last few hundred years, as a child grows up, and moves into adulthood, he is encouraged, often forced, to discard picture books, and move on to the written word. He is almost encouraged to forget pictures altogether! This trend is slowly reversing with the increase in comics, glossy magazines, TV and movies.

Unfortunately, there are also a large number of such publications and media, which depict 'adult' and 'violent' themes, which poison the mind. Thus, the idea that seeing pictures in the mind and visions in the night, can be related to real life and be a means of communicating with me, is still largely taboo.

I used visions and pictures first. Indeed I invented it! Satan has dared to hijack my most vivid form of communication, and has frightened my people into being cautious. Children, I don't want you to be afraid of visions and dreams. I gave you inner sight and the ability to see life in pictorial form. I can, with one brief picture, flashed into your mind, tell you something that would take a whole book to describe in words!

In these days I want you to open your spiritual eyes and see the things I want to show you. By seeing, you will understand and so hear what I am saying to you, though not in words! So listen to me with both your inner ears, and your inner eyes. Do not be afraid to share what you see with others, that you may all come to understanding. I want you also to take very seriously those to whom I have given the gift of putting vision on to paper or into print. This is a gift from me, as important today as any other manifestation of Prophecy.

Children, learn from me how to see, hear and understand. Learn how to interpret what you see. This you can only do by staying close to me and waiting on my Holy Spirit. Let my voice ring in your ears, "Son of man, what do you see?" I love you children, stay close to me.

Love, even the Sinner!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for giving me this new day. Thank you for your love and goodness which you have poured out in great abundance. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning and for your company. We love you too.

Gather around my children and let me teach you.

First of all I want you to be still before me and acknowledge that without me you are nothing. All you have is mine, and I have given it to you. In spite of all your efforts, there is nothing you have ever done or said that would warrant any special treatment or advantage. Before Me all men and women are equal, regardless of their birth, worldly knowledge or wealth. I do not regard race, gender or class. From dust I created man and to dust he will return. Be still and ponder these things, for until you fully grasp this truth, you cannot begin to understand the appalling arrogance of mankind, in assuming he has any standing at all in the larger scheme of things!

Now add sin to the equation of your thoughts, and you will, if you are honest, realise that I should have exterminated mankind thousands of years ago, and started again! What was it that caused me to try to redeem what I had made?

The answer is held in a simple four letter word: LOVE. Yes, I was in love with my own creation! That is not surprising really because I invested a lot of love into creation, and especially into mankind. I even breathed my own breath into him, so that he would become a living being like me! This presented me with a problem! There is no place near me where sin can abide. Anything that comes into my presence must be pure and holy, yet I love mankind, whom I have made and I want him to be able to draw near to me! You see my problem!

The only way to solve this problem was to deal with sin once and for all, and release mankind from its bondage. Oh, I could have clicked my fingers and made man only do what what is righteous and true, but then he would have been doing the right thing because I made him do it, and not through his own choice! The thing I loved about mankind was that he has the potential and ability to love me back of his own freewill, and that is what I wanted. I wanted man to love me as freely as I love him.

As nothing sinful can exist in my presence, and all sinners would die, even before they saw my face, I needed a way for them to die before they got to that stage, and then to be made alive again without sin! The only way they could be made alive again was if they had died without sin! Oh dear! "All men have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23.

Then it became evident that the only way this would work, was if I was to become a man, and live a human life without sin. I knew full well, that sinful man would be appalled at any form of purity or goodness, and would seek to kill it. So the Man, Me would die, but not because of my own sin, because I don't have any! This would mean that, just as one man, Adam, caused sin to enter mankind, so one man, the Man, Me, would carry on my shoulders all the sin of mankind. Yes, all the sin of mankind in every age and time! I would then place that burden of sin once and for all in the lake of fire, to be destroyed.

Because I am without sin, death would not be able to hold me, and I would come back to life again. This would then provide a way for sinful mankind, of his own free-will, to accept what I had done and lay his sin at the foot of My Cross. He can do this by confessing and renouncing all his sin, and receiving my forgiveness. Then, leaving the burden at the foot of the Cross, he can move on into my presence, not in his own righteousness, but clothed in my righteousness. Oh how I long for all men to embrace what I have done for them. How I long for you to run into my outstretched arms and look into my face without fear. Oh how I love you. Please make my love complete by loving me back!

Children, as you celebrate Christmas this year remember why I came to Earth, to be born a helpless child in a lowly manger. I did it all because I love you.

Walking in the Garden

Lord: The relationship I established with Adam in the garden of Eden was very close. We walked and talked a lot, and would watch the sun rise and set together. Anything he asked me I would tell him, and together we named all the creatures I had made, and gave names to the plants and trees of the Earth. I was an exciting time for him as he learnt all about his environment, and a lot about the heavens as well. No information was barred from him in those days, and we spent a lot of time together just talking. Hearing my voice in those days was easier for him, for there were few distractions, and no other voices to lead him astray.

Even after I made Eve, we all walked and talked together, and he learnt about relationships. They both struggled a bit with how to be close to me, while remaining close to one another. That lesson is still a difficult one, when a couple feel they should give their all to their marriage relationship! And so they should, and indeed can, while still retaining their relationship with me! You see, I am not a threat to the relationship between a man and a woman. I created man out of the dust of the earth and I breathed into him my breath, the breath of life! Out of man I created woman, and breathed into her my life, so together they live. I invented sex for them and allowed my love to flow between them. Everything that binds man and woman together I created and made for them, that they may be one. I do not come between to divide, but to bind together.

When man sins it, grieves my heart of love, and when a man and woman who have pledged love to each other, divorce I feel the pain every bit as much as they do.

I want to restore the relationship I enjoyed with Adam and Eve before their fall. I want to restore it, so that you, my children, may be one with me, as I originally made you to be. I loved the garden I made for Adam, and I yearn to walk in it with you. I want our relationship to be one where we walk and talk together, not just the two of us but all of us! I want all my people to stop excluding me from your relationships with others. I can bind you together in love and make your relationships really special, if you will only let me in.

My intention for Adam and Eve was that they would teach their children to walk with me in the garden also. Sadly, before that was possible, I had to close the garden to them, lest they destroy it with sin. Now, through Jesus, it is possible you you to draw near to me, and for us to build that perfect relationship again. In order to do this there are things, baggage collected from institutional religion, that need to be shed. There are things that need to be taught and passed on, to help you learn to listen to me and hear my voice. I need you to commit yourself to me again, and to listen to all that I will say to you, to learn the ways that I will show you, and to share it with your children and your children's children! Walk close to me always, and encourage those around you to walk close to me also. This is something we do together. Love one another as I have loved you. Gather round and be at one with me and with each other. Let me teach you. I love you.

Love Changes everything!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new and beautiful day. Thank you for your love and care for us and for always being there for me. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Welcome to the club this morning and thank you for joining us.  We love you too.

I want to tell you a mystery that very few people think about, but it affects the life of everyone on the planet!

The mystery is this: There are no loners on Earth. Your lives are all intertwined  with each other. Every child who is born into the world seriously affects the lives of others. Everyone alive is very special and unique. No one is expendable in my eyes, and therefore is not expendable! I love all the millions of people I have made since I first created Adam and Eve.

Today many people think they are alone in the world with no-one to love them. And it is true, that many are surrounded by those who do not love them. But I love them with an everlasting love, and I want them to know me and know how much I love them.

Just as a child born into the world affects the lives of his or her mother and father, so I want my church, every believer, to affect the lives of those around them, by spreading My love. Yes, I want my people everywhere, to seek out the unloved and the lonely and touch their lives with love.

When My Son was born into the world he dramatically changed the lives of Mary and Joseph, but also the inn keeper, the shepherds, the wise men, and those who helped them escape to Egypt. He changed the lives of the families with small children in Bethlehem and of the soldiers sent by Herod to kill them. Yes, even of the cold-hard soldiers! And down the ages My son has changed the lives of countless thousands by telling them of My love and touching lives with healing and forgiveness.

Before He left his disciples, to come home to Me, he told them to do the things he had done amongst them. The church remembers the preaching and teaching, the works of charity and healing, It even goes into the dung heaps of humanity to share the good news, but it doesn't always remember to love the unloved or to stand beside the lonely. It often forgets to fight for the poor and the oppressed. Yet the greatest work of My son Jesus was His Love!

It was pure Love that left the glory and security of Heaven to venture to Earth, that allowed him to offer to die upon the cross, in your place. It was pure Love for sinful man that allowed him to suffer the agony of that week. It was Love!

Every life ever born on the Earth has the capacity to love and the need to be loved. Every life ever born on the Earth touches the life of at least one other person, and changes them for life! You have had the course of your life changed for the better, and sometimes for the worse, by others. As your lives are touched, I want your response to be LOVE. Yes, love even those who do not love you back, for by filling the world with love, you banish hate and sin, giving it no place to go. Light up the dark places of the Earth with love!

Never let it be heard from your lips: "What good will my little contribution make?" Every act of love touches the life of someone. It may not provoke a response immediately, but once planted, the seed of love takes root and seeks even the tiniest bit of nourishment to grow, until one day it flowers. The power of love is enormous. When man first split the atom, he was convinced he had discovered the greatest power in the universe. But all the power in every atom bomb ever made is nothing to the power of one simple act of love! When you, from your heart, tell someone you love them, healing flows through the Earth, and bells in Heaven ring.

As you celebrate Nativity this year, you are celebrating Love that changes the world for the better. Love one another, and love all men everywhere, just as I have loved you, and bring harmony back into creation. I love you.

Receive and Act!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for allowing me to walk with you this morning and for all the love you show to me. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Welcome to the club this morning. Thank you for your company on our walk and for sharing your concerns with us. Know that I am with you always and that I love you.

I have spent many sessions with you, talking about listening to me, and staying close to me. Remember all I have said to you and keep them always at the forefront of your mind. Hearing my word is the key to the next stage, which is 'Action!"

I had a servant once who was rather good at hearing my word. One day I asked him to go to Nineveh with a message for the people there. Yes, his name was Jonah! Jonah was a good man at heart and, as I said, he was rather good at listening to me. But he was also rather timid and he got scared when I wanted to send him to Nineveh. He was scared of what those wicked people would do to him. He hadn't learned the basic lesson, in spite of all his listening to me. That basic lesson is trust in me! I never send anyone to do my will on their own! With everyone who hears my command to go, and goes, I send an angel. Even though the receiver may not like the message and be very angry about it, the messenger is protected. Jonah had only to trust in me.

You know the story well, of how he ran the other way, and how I brought him back, and deposited him on the shore closest to the great city. He was very grumpy all the way there. He was angry with the wicked people of Nineveh, that they had pulled him from his comfort zone, and the more blame he heaped on them, the more he wanted me to carry out my threat of destruction! It wasn't long before he forgot, that the whole point of prophecy is to turn the hearts of the hearers, so that they change direction and repent! Which is what happened. Instead of rejoicing with me, he went into a sulk. But I still love him, and he did learn the lesson I was teaching him.

The point of the story is that Jonah eventually acted and did what I first commanded him to do. “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, ....”

Whenever I command my people to do something, I expect action! Any leader or person in command expects those under him to obey his commands. Messengers and couriers especially, are expected to deliver to the addressee the package or letter sent!  The patriarchs and prophets of the Old Testament who heard my voice did as I directed, and thus the history of my chosen people unfolded. When the Church was born, through Jesus, I commanded them to go into all the world and preach the gospel. They were very slow on the uptake, seeing the whole world as only Israel, their safe comfort zone! In order to get them moving, I had to intervene and give them a push! Many time over the centuries I have had to put my boot in and kick the Church into action again, as the tendency is to sit back and leave action to others!

When I first chose Israel and allowed the building of the temple in Jerusalem, it was intended that my chosen people should become a funnel through which the nations of the world would come back to me. The temple was to be the neck of the funnel where all their sins and wickedness were left behind, and they passed through into my presence. When that plan failed, and my chosen people themselves became a blockage to the nations, Jesus built His Church. The Church is now the funnel and the Cross has replaced the temple.

Today however, the Church institutions have become a stumbling block and often a locked gateway, preventing the unsaved from drawing close. Too many Christians, even those who hear my voice, sit back and expect others to act. Children, this is not what I want, nor intended. When I speak a word to you, old or young, male or female, I expect action to follow hearing! Do not be afraid, for I never send my children into danger they cannot handle, nor do I send them alone. I am with you always and my angels are sent to guard you.

These days are exciting days and in these days I am working in mighty power. This generation will not pass away before I have accomplished my great work. Listen to my voice and obey my commands, and know that I am with you always, even to the end of the age. I love you.

In The Cross of Christ My Saviour

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for your love Lord, and for the forgiveness and grace we receive from you. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning Son. Stay close to me today and let me help you to overcome and be victorious. We love you too.

Never underestimate the saving power of the Cross of Jesus. I am doing a work in the world today, which will amaze even those who have been close to me and in the forefront of evangelism for years!

For many generations in the years after Adam and then after Noah, mankind had sought ways of building a bridge back to Heaven. Man may have been stopped from building the Tower of Babel, but he has never stopped reaching out for what was lost in the Garden of Eden. Mankind has come up with so many different religious systems and methods of drawing near to me, that libraries are full of the accounts of them! Some are very good and do genuinely draw people a little closer to me, and some are very good for leading a clean, honest and good life. Others miss the target altogether and enslave and burden people with many rules, rituals and practices that do nothing to reach me, and only harm to those who practice those ways.

Very early on in the course of human history I began to work on a solution to the gulf that lies between man and God! I laid the foundations, as far back as Adam, for a bridge that would span the gulf between us. Unlike any man-made bridge, which starts building from both ends with the hope of meeting in the middle, the bridge I began, started in Heaven and continued out until it touched the Earth.

There is very good architectural sense in this approach; you see, Heaven is totally stable. Nothing can shake it or move it, whereas the Earth is trembling and shaking, and has done since sin entered it. The Earth is prone, not only to physical earthquakes and eruptions from deep within, but also from spiritual shifts and rumbles. Sin and death are constantly trying to get the upper hand while righteousness and godliness are battling, to not only hold their ground, but to make advances. They are like the ebb and flow of the tide, and the ground is like the sands that shift and change. Because of this basic instability, it is virtually impossible to build consistently, and stably from the Earth to Heaven.

The bridge I have built is totally stable, because is is founded on the rock which is me! It is large and strong and safe, spanning the gulf with ease. Where it touches the Earth, is the Cross of Jesus, and this is the miracle at which to wonder! The Cross is firmly attached to the bridge, and therefore a part of Heaven. But, it is also deeply set in the soil of the Earth for, as an instrument of torture and death, it is a part of the fall of mankind. However the One who died on it was a man, born of a woman, who lived a very human life with all the limitations and restrictions of humanity. Yet He was born of My Holy Spirit and through His righteousness and godly nature, revealed to the world of men, that He was and is My beloved Son. By dying on that cross He became the anchor that holds the bridge to Earth, the gateway through which man must pass to cross over to Heaven.

My bridge is the only way to Heaven and to Me. I say it again, it is the only way! There is no need for any other way. It is wide enough and strong enough for every man woman and child to pass over. Because of the need to anchor it to the Earth, those who pass over the bridge to Me, MUST pass through the gateway of the Cross.

Salvation through the Cross is NOT a Christian invention! It was I who decided that it was to be The Way. The Cross of Jesus is the only way! Passing through the gateway of the Cross does not make it exclusive; No one needs to be excluded, all are welcome and it is open to everyone. The Cross of Jesus is all inclusive. "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life."

All who wish to cross the bridge and come to me, MUST lay their burdens of sin at the foot of the Cross, for nothing unclean or sinful can enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Laying their burdens down is an act of repentance and an acceptance of what Jesus had done for them by dying on the Cross. But be quite clear about this, The Cross is for all men, not just the Christian West, but for North, South, East and West. It is the way for the Muslim, the Buddhist, the Hindu and men and women of every religion in the world or none. Anyone who wants to come to me must pass through the Cross, and leave their burdens and their chains behind at the foot of the Cross. It is the only way! It is the way I have made for you all because I love you.

My Sheep Hear My Voice

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for listening to me as I make my prayers to you, and for being a God who hears and answers prayers. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning. Of course I hear your prayers. I hear every sound that the world makes, from the sound of a butterfly's wings, and the beating of the heart of an ant, to the roar of the sea beating against the rocks and the sound of the mountains falling! Nothing escapes me. Every time a child of mine cries out for help, I act.

Every person on the Earth, I have made. All are my children. With some I am well pleased, and for others I grieve. Since the dawn of time I have made my ways clear to mankind and I have written clearly upon the heart of every man, woman and child, a sense of right and wrong. Even when Satan deceives and hides the truth from someone, I am able to speak truth into their hearts. Some hear and respond to me, and I am able to act for them. Others hear my words in their hearts and choose, yes, choose, to ignore me, and turn back to the ways of darkness and sin.

My word to all men is to do justly, love mercy, and to walk humbly before your God. In the world today there are many who know me and do what is right in my eyes. They feed the hungry, heal the sick, and bring justice to those who are without advocate. There are also many, who do not know me by name, but who, because they have heard in their hearts what is right, act righteously, justly and with mercy and love. I have their reward prepared for them as well.

There are also many who know what is right and wrong, and who choose the pathway of selfishness, greed and violence. The suppress and exploit the weak and the poor, and show no mercy or generosity to others. Because of their ways and the choice they have made, I turn the light of my face from them. That does not mean that I am unaware of their deeds, nor does it mean I have given up on them, for I long for them to turn to me and be saved! However those who resist me, and keep their face turned away from me, preferring the path of darkness and sin, have no place in my Kingdom and their names do not appear in the Lamb's Book of Life.

At the time of Exile, I did everything possible to turn the hearts of the disobedient back to me. I rebuked them and brought calamity upon them. I loved them and gave them another chance, but they stubbornly refused to come back to me. Therefore I had to let them go. Oh how that hurt me, for I loved them so much and still do.

Down all the ages things haven't changed. Time and again I do everything I can to turn men back to me. In every generation there are those who respond and do what is right, but there are also others who do not turn to me but listen to the lies of Satan and do evil. My heart still aches for those who choose the path of darkness and to walk away from me, and I am always looking out for them to return to me. Even when they are far from me, drowning in their sin, I hear their heartbeat, and I watch for the slightest flicker of light in in the darkness.

Today, yes even today, there are those who respond to me and do what is right. And there are those, many in high places, highly respected by worldly institutions, who do not love justice, mercy or peace. They do not walk in my ways or do my will. I am bringing about calamity for them, for all the things in which they trust are crumbling and falling to dust. But still they will not turn to me!

You my children are to love the justice I bring. Love mercy and bless those around you. Do what you know is right in my eyes. Walk humbly before me offering your love, praise and worship, remembering that, but for my grace, you too would be still walking in darkness and in the grip of Satan.

I call all the world, the righteous and the unrighteous, to repentance. Repent for all the sin of the nations, for injustice, violence, oppression and war. Repent for intolerance and lack of understanding. Repent for prejudice and blindness. Turn to me and seek my face, that I may stretch out my hand and heal the nation, and raise you up again to walk in righteousness and peace before me. I love you.

Jesus IS Lord!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for allowing me to walk with you this morning and for loving me. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning and for giving us your worship. We do love you with all our heart. Stay close to me.

Vision: The sky darkens and a storm is brewing. The birds hush their songs and the animals of the hedges run for cover. The clouds race to cover the moon and all is dark! As the darkness falls,so the noise of the wind becomes a mighty roar, and all that is in the open bends to its dance.

In spite of the wind, I hear a song, sweet and melodious, carried on the wind, yet rising above it. It is the song of the children of God, worshipping! So sweet, so beautiful. It is as though thee songs have take wings, and are flying above the storm, and rising to the very throne room of Heaven.

I looked and in the darkness I saw a light. It glowed with a bluish light which seemed to penetrate the darkness like a knife. It came from a ledge, protected by an overhanging rock on the sheltered side of a mountain. As I drew nearer, I could see that the light and the song both came from a group of people, who were totally at peace with their Maker, and unafraid of the dark or the storm. There was no fire around which they gathered, either for light or warmth, yet there was a warmth emanating from each of them, and they glowed with an inner light. In their midst, the storm made no noise and could not even ruffle a hair of their heads

As I listened, I heard the words of their song, for they sang with one voice:

    Jesus is Lord of all,
    Jesus is the King.
    Jesus the Son of God
    Died for you and me.
    Jesus I love you,
    Worship and adore.
    Help me to love you, Lord,
    More and more.

Then I was carried on the wings of their praise until I found myself in a great throne room, filled with living creatures great and small. The song I had heard was being sung by all the living creatures, and was directed at One who sat upon the throne. At the end of the song, a mighty shout was heard in Heaven, "Jesus IS Lord!" At the sound of that cry, the darkness lifted, and the Earth was bathed in light. I saw that from many places on the Earth, groups of people were coming out of their shelters and looking heavenward. Then they too, with a cry that shook the whole Earth, shouted with one voice, "Jesus IS Lord!" And the Earth was once again filled with the sounds of creation. The birds sang, insects buzzed and children laughed as they played. The trees rustled in the breeze, and the rivers sang as they flowed over stones and pebbles. The whole Earth was filled with the music of creation praising her Creator.

    Jesus IS Lord!

To Whom It May Concern

To whom it may concern

Lord: My child, place your hand into my outstretched hand, and let me raise you up. Come with me where I will lead you. Do not look back nor worry about all your cares any more. Let me take care of those you love and let me take care of you. For I have seen your suffering and pain and I have been with you in all your dark nights, and gloomy days. I have never left you. Even in the darkest hour before the dawn, I was sitting by your side, wiping the damp from your forehead and adding warmth to the blanket wrapped around you.

Place your hand into my hand and let me lift you up, for the sun has risen and is dispelling the darkness, and causing the dark shadows to recede. Come with me out of the gloom and into the brightness of this new day. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I have never left your side and will always be with you.

Lift up your head and open your eyes to the warmth of my brightness and allow my love to wash over and through you, to cleanse you of the aches and pains of the past years. Let me be your healing and strength. For I am, the Lord your healer, the Lord your deliverer.

Take my hand my beloved child, and follow me into the meadows full of colour and life. Listen to the buzz of life around you and drink deeply of the beauty I have painted in all things, especially for you. Drink my beloved, and live. Draw strength from me, my child, and be healed. I have much to show you. Things that will delight your soul and warm your heart. Too long have you been trapped in the darkness. Now you are free. Run my child, dance and sing, for I have set you free.

Follow me and stay close to me as I lead you on. Gather strength from me, rejoice and laugh for joy. Look around you and behold those whom you love. I have been with them also and have held them as I have held you, in the hollow of my hand. Who am I? I am Jesus. I suffered and died especially for you! But God, who is my Father, and your Father, raised me up on the third day. Death was not able to hold me because I am without sin. Therefore you also are raised to life through me. Come my Child, walk with me and I will show you the Father. I Love you.

Proclaim Jesus IS Lord!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day you have made. I commit this day to you with all it holds, and I ask that you will help me to serve you this day as you deserve. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning and for your worship. We love you too.

I would that my people would stand upon my promises and not put their trust in other gods. The current thinking in Europe is that there is safety in numbers, and that all the problems they have faced in the last months will be cured in a matter of moments, by coming together as one. This thinking is badly flawed.

In the days of Babel, because they did not put their trust in me, I sent an angel of confusion amongst the men and women. I confused their languages and scattered them throughout the whole world. When Israel turned away from me and put its trust in Egypt or Assyria. I sent them away from the land of plenty and safety that I, the Lord Almighty, had provided for them. I sent them to dwell in strange lands, where they were strangers. I put within them a yearning for their homeland, a yearning that nothing would satisfy. I did this in order to bring them to the realisation that they had lost everything, because they had turned away from the Lord their provider.

In this, your day, because mankind has turned away from me, I have sent amongst them a angel of confusion, to break up their corrupt thinking and evil ways. There is no comfort to be found in a united, financially motivated Europe, because the heart of Europe is far from me. Those who rely upon such a union will be disappointed, confused and scattered. Those who turn and return to me shall find that I, and I alone, have the answer they seek. Do not fear that Britain stands alone; fear only that she stands without me!

Pray every day for this your people to return to the Lord their God. Pray for those who have never known my Son, that they will be introduced to him. Pray for those who make these big decisions, that affect the lives of so many. Pray for the religious leaders of the nation, not just the Christian ones, that they together will call for a day of fasting and prayer before me.

Now is the time for Christians to end their silence and to speak out with one clear voice, proclaiming Jesus is Lord! Shout it from the rooftops  and proclaim it in the valleys. Let every corner of the land echo with the single call to arms, Jesus IS Lord!

Lift up the cover that is hiding your light, Place your lamp in a high place that it may shed light all around, that all may see. Be bold, be strong, for I the Lord your God, am with you, and I love you.

More from Revelation!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day and new week. Help me to use this week to praise your name and give you all praise and glory. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning and for walking with us. The week that lies ahead of you is a busy one, so it is important that you start each day with me. Remember I am with you and I want to be involved in all you do.
 

Yes, the message of Revelation to the Churches applies very clearly to the Church today.

The word I spoke to the Church at Sardis is particularly relevant. For though many congregations have a reputation for being 'alive' and 'lively', they are in fact dead, because all their 'life' is in deeds of busy-ness. Prayer, and building a relationship with me are unheard of, and very few really listen to me anymore. To you I say, Wake up! Strengthen what remains before that also dies. Hold on to my truth and repent now. Remember what you first received from me, and the words you heard that brought you life. Repent and seek my face, that I may wash you clean, and clothe you in white

There are those who still walk with me and have not soiled their clothes. As they walk with me, they are clothed in white for they are worthy. Their names are written in the book of life and will never be blotted out.

The words I spoke to the church in Laodicea, telling them that they were neither hot nor cold, is true of many congregations and fellowships throughout the land. I do not want a lukewarm Church; I want all my people to be on fire for me, and to be so hot that they give warmth to those around them. Open your eyes children, and see that you are no longer rich and have no need, but are indeed poor wretched, blind and naked! I am telling you this, so that you may come back to me. Buy gold from me refined in the fire, so that you can be really rich. Let me clothe you in the robe of righteousness, to cover your shame and nakedness, a white robe, that only I can give. Let me anoint your eyes with a salve that will restore your sight.

I love you, therefore I rebuke you, that you may repent and seek my face. I am knocking on the door of your life If anyone hears me, and opens the door, I will come in, and we will eat together. I long for you all to be victorious, so that you can sit with me on my throne.

Do not look any more at Revelation as being locked in the past. The days are past when a study of this book focuses on the historical. It is prophetic, and speaks directly into the situation today. Until this time the door of understanding has been shut, and what I shut remains shut until I open it again. Today I am opening many doors in scripture, and unlocking the truths that have laid hidden for centuries. I am opening those doors to my Church, because the time is drawing near when all things will be gathered together. Keep alert, watch and pray. I am with you always and I love you.

Revelation today!

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for our time together and for spending the time talking with me. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Welcome to the club this morning and for joining us as we walked. We love your company in the mornings and are always ready to talk with you, because we love you too.

As you come to Revelation in your cycle of Bible readings, there is much I want to show you. You see, John practiced hearing my voice much as you do! And I revealed many things to him. There were many more revelations I gave him, but some were not adopted by the early church as scripture. If they had been, the church would not have strayed as far as it did in the first few centuries.

When I spoke to John and showed him many things, both in word and vision, I was continuing the teaching I gave all the disciples when I walked with them in Galilee. If I had spoken then, about the things I later showed him, even John himself would not have understood. For none of the disciples really understood, that I literally meant them, to take the gospel into all the world! For them, "all the world" meant the land in which they lived, the land of their birth, the familiar and that which they understood. None of then expected to go to Rome, Asia, Europe, India or Africa, and none of them had any concept of life away from Judaism!

The same is true today. You hear of, and read about, Christians who take the gospel out to other countries, but few Christians ever dream that that is where I am calling them! Even you, when you first embarked on training for the ministry, believed that you would come back to the St Albans area and get a parish not far from where you were born. Instead I called you to the Celtic lands of the West where I had work for you to do that only you could do.

For all my children who are called by me, listening to my voice, and being open to revelation is vital, if they are to move where I want them to move! It is only when they are in my presence, listening to me, that I can instruct them where to go and what to do. It is not the place of others to tell them. They can and should assist, but the command to go is mine to give!

Many of my children do not hear my instructions, because they are listening to, and tuned in to hear, long term instruction and revelation, when I am trying to give them the next step. Yes, if I am to be Lord of your lives I must instruct you and guide you, every step of the way! When you don't hear the next step, wait! To forge on and assume you know the way can lead to disaster and disappointment. I am the way, follow me!

Often you think I haven't given you the next step, because it doesn't seem to be a natural progression towards your long term aim. The instruction I am giving you, could well be an instruction to deal with an issue that may not seem important now, but which, could easily become a stumbling block over which you fall, in the long term..

“To the angel of the church in Ephesus write:

These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands. I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false. You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary.

Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place. Rev 2:1-5

The Church in Ephesus was righteous and hard working for me, yet there was a small thing that dampened their fire; they had lost that first love which is so important, the spontaneity, the freshness of a new relationship. the sparkle of joy as lovers meet. It was in the way of greater things and prevented them from being where I wanted them to be.

Children, be always open to what I am saying to you. One day it may be a prophecy of great moment, that will change the world. The next, it can be some little thing, that seems so insignificant as to be easily missed, but is that which will turn and change the course of history!

Watch and pray and pay attention to all the things that I say to you. I never say things to catch you out and I never threaten! Even when I prophesied the downfall of nations, I was not threatening them, just telling them what the consequences would be of their actions, or lack of them. The same is true today, even in the "big" matters, like the fall of the world's economies. These things I have caused, in order to show the nations that they need me. The provision is, and always was there, that, "If they turn to me, and away from their wickedness in repentance. I will turn and heal the land." What I do for the individual, I will also do for the nation.

There is still a little time left, for men and women to pray, and turn the situation round. Repent, and pray my Kingdom and my reign into every nation under heaven.

Stand firmly against the small things that are creeping into the laws of the land, which are not of me, and are against the commandments I have given for all men to follow. Hate the sin, and love the sinner! There is no compromise with sin or Satan. Purge the sin from your life, and from the nation, that I may forgive and heal your land.

My heart longs for all men and women to come to me, of their own freewill, and to be healed and set free from all the lies and chains of Satan. I love you all. Come to me!

You Shall Have No gods Before Me

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Lord I give you this day and this week and ask for your hand in all we do and say. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Thank you for joining us this morning. Stay close to me, and do not be afraid to ask for my help at any time during the week. I am with you always and hear your every thought. I love you too.

I am the Lord your God, you shall not put anything or anyone before me.

Only when man truly understands the magnitude of this statement, will the problems the world faces today begin to make sense. Oh yes, all the 'experts' in finance each think they have an economic solution. Every politician of every party thinks they alone have the solution. Every head of state, and leaders of all the different organisations and departments of power, all think they have a solution which will work, but all of them come to nothing and none of them agree. Every one has placed their own idea before me, and has tried to push me out altogether.

I placed first my chosen people, Israel, then my Church, the body of Christ on earth, to show men of all nations that I am the Lord Almighty, and that I really do have the well being of the nations near to my heart. First Israel, and now the Church, succumbed to the ways of the world, and turned away from me, until only a remnant was left. Time after time in history, I have shown beyond doubt, that the nations who trust me, and follow me, are blessed beyond measure. But men still turn from me, and follow the gods they have made with their own hands.

That is why I have chosen the remnant that are left, and am preparing them to be a new force for My Kingdom on Earth. I am calling you, my children, to put me first, and to have no gods before me.

Look at all the great men and women in the Bible. See, how when they walked behind me, and put me first, I was able to perform, in their midst and often through them, great, wonderful and terrible things. When the people followed their lead the nation prospered.

My call goes out now to every nation and people under Heaven, not just to the Church, but to all men and women everywhere. "I am the Lord your God, you shall not put anything or anyone before me." When you obey this, the first of my great commandments, then I will reveal to you the great mystery of salvation; I will introduce you to my Son Jesus. Therein lies the hope of the nations and the prosperity of mankind. The hope of the nations today does not lie in monetary, or political unions. It does not lie in the hands of the rich or the poor. Nor is it any use relying on the power of military action. All these forces I am bringing to nothing! The hope of the world lies in my beloved Son, Jesus.

My people, turn to me. Look closely at your lives, and root out from them all the gods you have accumulated unwittingly, and placed before me. Repent and allow me to cleanse you and make a new being out of you. Place Jesus on the throne in the centre of your being and let Him be your guide, your salvation and your hope. I love you.

Lay Your Burdens at My Cross

Me: Good Morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day you have made. Thank you for always being here for me. I love you.

Lord: Good morning Martin. Thank you for joining us this morning. You know I am always here for you, no matter what time of the day or the night.

Whenever my children need me, I am there for them. I am often accused of not being there, and as a result someone dies, just like on the occasion of the death of Lazarus! Even my very good friend, who knew me so well, said, "If you had been here my brother would not have died!" I want to assure you all that no-one suffers or dies in this world alone. I am always there with them, as they go through the depths, or as they pass over. You may not be aware of me, but that is usually because you are not tuned into me. No one passes into life after life, alone. Nor can I be accused of not knowing the suffering of man. I feel every sadness, pain and anguish every man, woman and child feels. The big difference is that, though they feel it only for a time, I feel it for all eternity!

This is the reason the Cross of Jesus is so important to mankind, for it was on that hideous cross that I suffered all, yes all, the pains and sufferings of mankind in every age, from Adam to the end of time. I suffered it all, in order to take it away from you! That is why I want you all to lay your sin and all your sufferings there at the foot of the Cross, and to leave them there. They are no longer yours, but mine! I want you to walk on from the Cross, unburdened and free, so that you can enter into life. I don't offer it for tomorrow, but for today, for now. There is no reason why anyone, reading this word, should walk away from me still burdened by sin. Lay down your burden now at the foot of my Cross!

I hear your cry to me, "How Lord? How do I lay it down when I have carried it so long?" Dear one, it is simple. Confess that sin, tell me about it and don't hold back. I will not be shocked or surprised; I already know about it! But you need to confess it before me and repent. With the realisation that sin is clinging to you, comes the desire I give you, to be free of it. However hard you shake and wriggle, it clings to you and you will soon realise that you need the help of Someone Else. That is the moment of repentance, when you cry out, "Help me!" At that moment Jesus, my beloved Son, steps down from the Cross and removes the burden from you, taking it on his own shoulders. You never need to carry it again, once He has taken it away.

The Cross of Jesus has been the salvation of millions of ordinary men, women and children, from every nation, tribe and people, down the last 2,000 years. It still has the same power it had on the day of the Crucifixion, and Jesus is still there in the world with you, lifting burdens and carrying all your sins and sufferings. No one dies alone, and no one suffers alone. I am with you always, right to the close of the age!

I love you.

That All May Hear My Voice

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for giving me this new day, I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son, thank you for joining us this morning and for your company as we walked. We love you too.

It is a great joy to me, as it will be to you, to know that many people from faiths, other than Christianity, are coming to know Jesus as their Lord and Saviour, through listening to my voice. Yes, listening to me, as you do, is becoming very popular, even with those who come from different backgrounds. In the coming months you will hear more about them, and even from them! In the meantime, pray for them, especially those from Islam, for they have a very difficult time. I want people all over the world, from every religious background and culture, to listen to my voice. I want to speak to them, and tell them about my Son.

This does not mean the Church is released from its responsibility to share the Good News! It actually makes its responsibility even greater! When others, who are coming to me, come to the Church to seek more knowledge about Jesus and salvation, they might well be justified in say, "Why didn't you tell us this before? We have been walking in the dark for centuries, and you did nothing to tell us about Jesus!"

It is not just those of other faiths I want to listen to my voice; it is also those who are already called by my name. Yes, I want every Christian, old and young, male and female, rich and poor, to spend time talking to me, and listening to my voice. Any Christian who is too busy with the rituals of religion, to listen to me, is too busy, and needs to slow up! Otherwise I will slow them up, by laying them on their backs, against their will! For centuries I have been shouting at my people, to try and get their attention! They have been too busy to stop and spend time with me. Oh, the work I could have saved them! To say nothing of the pain, suffering and hardship they have suffered needlessly! Spread the word in any way you can, so that all may hear my voice, if they will only stop for a moment and listen!

I am showing you, that those of other faiths can come to know my Son. If I can do that, believe also, that I can speak to other, even harder groups of people, who seem determined to shut me out.

The first group are politicians who, often see themselves as the ultimate priesthood! Above the law, because they make the law, and without the need for a higher authority. Yes, I am speaking about many, though not all, ordinary MP's, Lords, Senators, and other representatives of the people. They all need my Son, and they all need to hear my voice.

The second are a group, belonging to a man-made religion of the very worst type, the secular religion of evolutionism! This group of scientists and their followers purposely shut me out of their lives, and do all they can, to prove that my word is a lie! They actively work to suppress the truth when it doesn't fit with their religiously held myths. They are also guilty of twisting and manipulating the truth, so as to remove those who do discover, or teach the truth, from holding any position of responsibility. But I say this: "They have had their day!"

These two groups do a lot of harm in the world, because they do not listen to me. Pray for them, that their ears may be unstopped, and that the door to their hearts may be opened. I want them to discover Jesus, and to start to hear my voice now!

Children, My Word is Truth. Read My Word, and listen to My Voice. Now is the time to listen! Now is the time to hear! Now is the time to tell others the Good News. Tell them that I love them, and that my Son has saved them, and will set them free from the lies of Satan.

I love you!

Let Me, Light your Path.

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this crisp new day. Thank you for all your love and blessings poured out on us each day. I love you Lord.

Lord: Good morning son. Welcome to the club this morning. Thank you for joining us on our walk and for our conversations together. We love you too.

I want you, my children, to walk in the light. You shall always be able to tell which is the right road to walk down, for it is the road that follows the light. I am Light and in me there is no darkness at all. The road to Hell is broad and straight but very dark. Occasionally along that road there are large noisy buildings lit with bright neon signs which spread a pool of light on the dark road. They draw the unwary towards their open doors, towards all the distractions of the world, the flesh and the devil.

My way is so different, for although it is a narrow path, when you walk the walk with me you will find that my light shines bright and clear on the road ahead. When you move forward with me, the path ahead comes into my light as we walk along. Stay with me and you will never again walk in the dark. I will always be a light for your path and a lantern for your feet.

The road to Hell has many dark places, and shadows track the unwary traveller. A constant chill comes off the road. It is a place of dark imaginings and strange and evil sounds. Stay clear, and do not look at the brightly lit doors and windows, for few who are drawn into their brightness ever find the road out.

When you walk with me, in the safety of my light, you will never be hungry or thirsty again. You will draw closer each day to the Eternal City that is prepared for you. The singing and revelry behind the doors of sin may sound warm and attractive, but the cost is huge and repayment eternal! On my pathway we sing all the time, and we are filled with joy in each others' company. On my pathway, in my company, your shoes never wear out and all your clothing protects you from the weather. I carry all you need for the journey, and we can stop and rest whenever you need to. However, the nearer you draw to the Holy City the less you will need to stop and rest, for the river of life flows fast and strong from My throne, and gives life wherever it flows.

When you walk close to me, my light soaks into you and others see my light seeming to shine from you. You become like a mirror, reflecting my glory into the dark places along the road. Let that light from me shine through you and draw others into my light, that we may walk along the road together. I want my church, the people who are called by my name, to outshine the bright distractions of sin and lust, so that those who sit in darkness, or who are walking down the wide path do destruction, may be drawn into My light, and turn from their pathway to follow the way of light and life.

When Jesus came into the world 2,000 years ago, a new light shone after centuries of darkness. The world has been a much brighter place since then. I want now, to turn the brightness up, for once again the gloom is spreading and even some of the elect are falling into the gloom. I want you to shine brightly for me and become beacons of hope in your corner of the world. I love you. Shine for me!

Trust.

Me: Good morning Lord. Thank you for waking me this morning and for this new day. Thank you for your love which passes all understanding and for being my God. I love you.

Lord: Good morning son, welcome to the club this morning and thank you for your company on our walk. We love you too.

I want to talk to you about Trust today.

Trust is a very precious commodity that has become quite scarce in many parts of human society. A baby learns very quickly to trust its mother to provide all its needs. This sort of trust is founded partly on an inbuilt chemistry I put there, and partly experience. Because mother, or in some cases father, or another regular person, always provides the child's food and milk, and keeps them feeling comfortable, a trust is built up, so that as experience expands so the trust increases. In adolescence, trusting others becomes more a matter of experience and sometimes shared experiences. In adult life, as man becomes more often let down and hurt by people, trust has to be earned, and depending on the degree of hurt, that can sometimes take a long time,

In society, trust is most often based on performance. If a politician can deliver the goods, people trust him or her. The problems arise when politicians have to do unpleasant things like raising taxes, or cutting services, then the trust relationship begins to break down. Trust based on specific performance is like chasing a cloud; just as you think you have caught it, it melts away.

The only sort of trust that really lasts and works, is a trust based on a love relationship. If you add love to the other elements in trust it adds a backbone and makes it stronger. This is why couples who stay in love, often seem to trust their partners more deeply than others.

The trust that man has in me, is based mainly on love. It starts as a person steps out in faith and tries me, like a child accepting nourishment from mother, and that develops into a love relationship, partly based on experience, but rooted in love. The trust begins to grow rapidly as knowledge gained from both study and experience grows!

It is not enough for me to tell you that you can trust me! The words need to be backed by experience or faith! Experience is gained by listening to, and believing, the promises I have made, and finding them to be true. The promises become like stepping stones leading from one to another and on. As each stepping stone is tried, and found to be firm and trustworthy, both faith and trust grow. Sometimes, in order to see if a promise stands up to the test, you have to put all your weight on it, like standing on a stepping stone, rather than skipping from one to the other. All my promises to you are trustworthy and sure. I will never let you down.

The other great element in trust is being trusted. When someone you love trusts you, you do all you can to be fully trustworthy and, as it were, repay that trust. Not only am I trustworthy, but I also trust you! Yes, I have placed into the hands of my church the most precious gift I have ever given, the good news of my Son Jesus. This Gospel has the power to change the world, by changing lives. It can begin to do that today, and I have entrusted it to you! I would not have entrusted it to you if I didn't know that you are well able to complete the task of delivering it. Yes, I know you can do it, that is why I am trusting you with it. Allow my trust in you to grow, as I have allowed your trust in me to grow. The reason I trust you is my love for you. And the trust you have in me is best founded in your love for me. Remember, love is the greatest power at work in the world today. There is no power greater than love. Love one another as I have loved you.
