Revelation That Overcomes

God says, "You will arise to a new level of overcoming. You have already begun to see patterns
in your life that have consistently opened the door to the enemy's work against you. These
patterns will become increasingly apparent as you progress and punish disobedience with your
obedience. Rejoice in this process.

Your struggle is not over, but if you look back, you can see that victory has come more speedily
than in times past. This is because you have learned to release your anger and bitterness and
have refused the victim position. You will continue to rise up to defeat the enemy more
effectively as you choose to exercise your faith in Me to bring you through.

Do not be afraid of unknown challenges that lie ahead. You cannot fight the battle until you see
the enemy and discover his method of attack. Rest in the assurance that My grace is sufficient,
and that I will bring you through to victory as you yield to the leading of My Spirit," says the Lord.

Luke 12:11-12, "Now when they bring you to the synagogues and magistrates and authorities, do
not worry about how or what you should answer, or what you should say. For the Holy Spirit will
teach you in that very hour what you ought to say."

"This indeed is a season when you discover in greater dimension--the power to overcome every
obstacle. Old mindsets that bring defeat to you will become crystal clear. It will be like suddenly
awakening from a dream to see the absolute reality of your existence and spiritual dominance."

High Place of Discernment

God says, "I am lifting you up to a high place, spiritually, where you can see the valley below
with great clarity. You will no longer see the world and people around you with natural eyes, but
you will see through eyes of discernment that penetrate through the veil that separates flesh
and spirit.

Be prepared to have the eyes of your understanding enlightened. I will cause you to grasp the
wisdom of things you have not been able to comprehend. This will enable you to overcome
obstacles and walk in confidence and victory.

You have already had significant breakthroughs in understanding how the spirit realm affects
your body and soul, but I tell you honestly that your level of comprehension is not even half of
what you will come to know and grasp. Every new revelation will become your possession and
strengthen you.

If you ask anything in My name, according to My will, I will do it. I will teach you and show you by
My Spirit the difference between what 'you want' according to your carnal nature and what 'My
will is.' It will be a divine separation of soul and spirit. Yield yourself completely to this process."

Hebrews 4:12, "For the Word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged
sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a
discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."

I Am Your Pilot

God says, "Things have not worked out exactly as you expected. This is because you cannot
see the end from the beginning. I have designed it to be this way so that you can be built up in
faith and know that I am with you to direct you along your path to destiny. Take delight in the
fact that I am your Pilot, and I will maneuver you through even the most dire straits.

Don't miss or overlook opportunities that look small and insignificant by looking too far out and
focusing on the big picture. I have great things in store for you, but you must not despise the
days of small beginnings."

Job 8:7, "Though your beginning was small, yet your latter end would increase abundantly."

"I say, establish clear boundaries and reorder your priorities, so that My blessings can flow like
a river--uninterrupted. The temptation will be to create your own blessings and to depend on
your own strength to accomplish your desires, but I hold all power over Heaven and earth.
Depend on Me to cause you to be fruitful. Your accomplishments are of a temporary nature, but
what I produce in you is everlasting.

Your most difficult days are behind you. You have endured much and been strengthened by
your perseverance. Truly you are stronger now than you have ever been. Your faith has been
tested through many trials and tribulations, and you have come through in victory. I count your
faithfulness as righteous."

You've Come A Long Way, Baby!

"You've come a long way, baby, but you have not yet gone as far as you can go. The
possibilities for your life have not been exhausted. On the contrary, you will be surprised and
delighted at what I have in store for you. But, you will have to hold your own dreams and desires
loosely to allow My will to manifest so that you can receive the best that I have for you," says the
Lord. "Trust Me!"

"Prepare to be stretched. But, know that you will not be challenged beyond your ability to
accomplish what is set before you. Trust Me for strength to overcome and endure. It is true that
you can do all things through Christ who strengthens you.

Those things in your life that seem to have been fragmented or left undone will now be brought
to a conclusion as the door to the past is shut and a new and exciting door is opening before
you. Rejoice in this time of new life and hope."

Breaking The Chains
  
"I am taking you step-by-step through the things that have consistently made you stumble and
lose heart. It will be like breaking the chains one link at a time, so that you can see clearly the
nature of the bondage, and you will never again be ensnared as in days gone by. Rejoice in a
new level of liberty," says the Lord.

"There have been times in your life when you have swung between two poles, one of ultra hope
and blessing and the other abject poverty and hopelessness. If you will yield to the work of My
Spirit along these lines, I will bring you from extreme ups and downs to a plateau of spiritual
reality and faith. For, certainly I am the Author and Finisher of your faith, and I will establish you
on this level ground.

Refuse to allow the enemy to use condemnation to remove you from the flow of revelation by
the Spirit. His tactics won't be anything new. Expect the same old lies that bring guilt, shame
and rejection. But, now I will give you greater capacity to see quickly and deal with the attacks,
so that your times of oppression will be immediately cut off like awakening from a bad dream.

I am releasing healing in you that will wash away the rejection and failures from the past and
equip you to go forth with wisdom and endurance. Let go of the labels that have been assigned
to you by various people and circumstances, for I call you My beloved."

Open Doors
   
"Prepare to make some of the most important decisions of your life as I present opportunities
that you could never have imagined. You are Mine, and My plan is to establish you and bless
you in ways that will remove even the vaguest remembrance of past disappointments and
struggles.

I will open doors before you, and you will behold new vistas and prospects for the future that
you really never dreamed of. And, I will bring you by a way that you have not known and make
your feet like hinds feet that will enable you to negotiate even the most difficult of paths. You will
scramble up the craggiest places as though it were level ground because I am with you to make
the crooked places straight and the rough places smooth.

You will have choices to make in the days ahead that have the potential to change the
landscape of your life forever. Seek Me for wisdom, and choose wisely. If you ask for wisdom, I
will certainly give it to you.

In this season, you must recapture the gifting and flow that you once embraced. In the passage
of time and circumstances, you lost confidence, but now is the time when you can reclaim what
was rightfully yours from the beginning. You cannot go back to the old manifestation of your gift
because it had to become like a seed that fell to the ground and died in order to take root and
grow up in you to produce fruit for this time. Be open and yielded," says the Lord.
