MASTER THE CRUCIFIED LIFE, DISPLAY THE RESURRECTED ONE

My children, you must draw close to Me, for your Father sees that the weariness of this life has become much. Because I know your heart and have fashioned it in My image, I also know that the gross sin of those who do not have the fear of the Lord grieves you, as it grieves Me. 

But I tell you this, My wisdom speaks that you must love the sinner but hate the sin. In doing so, you then share in My Crucifixion, by walking the road to Calvary with Me. The crucified life requires full surrender and obedience to My commandments and My ways. My love forbears all things, so it is in this perfect love that you will find your peace amidst the wickedness and blatant disobedience of all the world around you. 

When you truly understand and embrace My sacrifice that day on the Cross, you will know that in unconditional love there-in lies the answer to all things, to all situations. When you meet Me here at this place of emptiness and humility, the power of My love and the victory won transforms you from a crucified life to a resurrected one. Master the first, but I call you then to embody the first and display the second. It is in this place that I then call you My over-comers. 

Truly I say this, what appears impossible on this side of the veil was done already, the example set before you. Your sanctification is ongoing, and I will continue to move you from glory to glory. A holy, pure, sanctified, glorified vessel is your goal and I have already seen you through this. I have made the way straight. I have lit your path, and I have walked this road before you, so that all you need do is follow in My footsteps. 

Need there be anything else? 

My mantle covers you, and you bear the marks of My wounds on your hearts. Daily remember the sacrifice that was made for you, but then continually walk in the glory and the risen life purchased for you that day, for in doing this, I manifest Myself to a lost and dying world. We draw more souls to Us in order that not one would be lost, but that all may be saved and come to the understanding that I AM Love, and Love is all there is and ever will be..

Ephesians 2:10King James Version (KJV)

10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Psalm 73:26

26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

Psalm 97:10

10 Ye that love the Lord, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

Jude 22-23

22 And of some have compassion, making a difference:
23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

Malachi 1:3

And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.

Revelation 2:6

But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.

2 Peter 3:9

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

Galatians 2:20

20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

1 Corinthians 13:1-7

1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

John 15:12

12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.

Philippians 2:3-11

Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.
Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:
Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:
10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Romans 8:5-14

For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit.
For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.
Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.
So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
10 And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
12 Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.
14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

2 Corinthians 3:18

18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Psalm 119:105

105 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

Ezekiel 16:8

Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God, and thou becamest mine.

PAIN AND SUFFERING WILL BRING ABOUT A DEEPER INTIMACY

Why do you continue to ask the questions when the answer has already been given and lies within your heart? You know the answers before you even finish asking. It is enough for you to know here that through pain and suffering comes deeper intimacy and maturity in Me. 

So soon the rest will be revealed, but let this be enough for now. There is much more to surrendering all than you ever imagined, yes. This is a truth within itself. I will tell you again, not that you need reminded, My yoke is easy, My burden light. Lay down your spirits of heaviness for the garments of praise. There is much wisdom to be learned in this. My Kingdom does not operate as this one does. To gain with Me is to lose everything here. To continue to respond to all I present here in a carnal way with intellect, reasoning, and emotions only delays the progress you would have if you simply gave Me your all. 

Have I disappointed yet? Have not the past sorrows turned to joy? Have I not created many things beautiful from the ashes of your experiences? Have I not been true to My Word? You reason, you speculate, you presume and you carry expectations. In doing these things you set yourself up for failure, hurts and disappointments. I spoke this to you years ago and I say it again. Respond to each moment in time with this simple question. 'What is the most loving response I could have in this moment?' Is this not wisdom? I would that you would only concern yourselves with now. Worry not about what comes next, your help comes from Me, residing inside of you. Have I not told you many times past that the road would become much narrower before I come? You are responsible for all I have taught you. Rest on My promises. 

All around you must unravel and be sifted. Remember however, you cannot be shaken or moved as I remain the solid rock and foundation. There will be times, yes, when things in this realm will not appear to reflect this. However, yours is a Kingdom perspective, correct? From here you have been taught that this must be so. The storms of this life are permitted in order that you know Me intimately as your Anchor. I assure you, I have joined you in your heartaches, and your tears are My tears. Together, let Us usher in a new day, a glorious reign of united souls as Heaven inhabits earth. 

YAHUSHUA



1 Peter 4:12-19King James Version (KJV)

12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
13 But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.
14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified.
15 But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or as a thief, or as an evildoer, or as a busybody in other men's matters.
16 Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.
17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?
18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear?

19 Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator.


Matthew 11:30

30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.


Isaiah 61:3

To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.


Matthew 10:39

39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.


Psalm 121:2

My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.


Luke 10:27

27 And he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself.

THE CLOSER WE COME TO HIS RETURN, THE MORE FURIOUS THE ENEMY ATTACKS








I am led to share a dream, or a night vision as I call it, when it is spiritual in nature. My younger daughter has experienced several prophetic dreams/night visions over the years, and it is my prayer that this one would be helpful to those who are also finding themselves attacked or accused by the enemy, those who have already chosen Yahushua, Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, but who are struggling with the spirits of attachment-- fear, doubt, anxiety, lack, uncertainty, unworthiness, i.e. basically any spirit that goes against the truth of who we are in Christ. 

My daughter has struggled over the last couple of years feeling that God has not been hearing her prayers and that she is not important enough to matter in many ways. She tends to be anxious over the smallest of things and has great fear of uncertainty. I believe this is why she is being targeted. When the enemy accuses us of being unworthy, or attacks us with condemnations that create doubt, fear, anxiety, etc... we can either choose to agree with the accusation or reject the accusation and rebuke the enemy by binding his words and casting him out.  It is very subtle and often we make comments and agree even without realizing that we are agreeing with an accusation or a suggestion from the enemy. When we do agree, we give the enemy legal right to enter our life and that allows him to harass us and establish a foothold, and in many cases a stronghold.  This is what I believe has happened with my daughter.  

If we know the Word, however, and the enemy's tactics-- that he will always accuse us, and often when we are at our weakest, then we can stand in the truth and the authority that we have been given as children of God, and immediately and confidently rebuke him by refusing to accept his accusation(s), binding them in the name of Jesus Christ and casting them out into outer darkness. This is very important. It does not matter if you have been a Christian for many years or have just recently accepted Christ as your Savior.  The darkness is ever increasing and the battle in the spirit is intensifying more than ever before. We must keep the full armor of God on and tightened at all times.  

If we believe that we may have agreed with an accusation from the enemy, then we need to ask the Holy Spirit to bring it to the light, reject and bind the accusation(s) in Jesus's Holy name, ask Him for forgiveness and pray that the breach in the wall of protection around us is sealed.  Claim victory over whatever is oppressing you, e.g. unworthiness, fear, doubt, anxiety, depression, etc... and believe and walk in the truth that Jesus came to set the captives free.  We must walk in His light and accept His truth.

I am a firm believer that nothing is coincidence, and feel part of the reason that this has occurred with my daughter is because we as a family have stepped up our spiritual warfare, praying and speaking boldly in opposition to the enemy and all of his plans against us, His believers, asking Father to cancel any and all requests satan has made against us as a family and all believers. After getting much more aggressive in this area, my daughter had this terrifying experience, but I pray this has made her aware of how easily satan can and will enter through a breach in the wall, through these familiar spirits, and she as well as all of us need to heed and grow from the message that Father has placed before us.  

DREAM/NIGHT VISION:

My daughter and our family were in a dark movie theater. The movie playing was about a marching band. There were very few people in the theater at the time.  We all saw a young girl get out of her seat and begin walking along the walls of the theater, and my daughter noticed that she was being lured away from the movie and became increasingly agitated. She then changed and her appearance transformed into something ugly, horrifying, and demonic. As the movie continued, more and more dark entities started to appear in the theater and my daughter became increasingly alarmed, but the rest of the family did not seem concerned. 

The scene then turned into a magnificently decorated banquet table adorned with gold and each plate beautifully arranged with the best food. The atmosphere was super-charged with love and beauty, peace and amazing colors, and all of our family and many others were seated around the table, while Jesus walked among us getting ready to partake of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Everyone's plate was full, except my daughter's whose plate was empty.  A woman sitting directly across from her pointed at her and said, ' I haven't seen you here before. You don't belong here.'

She then found herself back in the theater crying and begged all of us to leave, although we were all oblivious to what my daughter had been experiencing. We were enjoying listening to Jesus and celebrating in the spirit, but she had left the feast already.  I said,     don't worry Jesus is here, but she could not see Him. We decided to leave together, and as we headed toward the lobby, we saw many people displaying demonic activity and acting in very bizarre ways, as if they were completely possessed. Everyone in our family except my daughter were still unaffected by what she was experiencing, because our eyes were on Jesus. 

A force or the darkness then dragged her into a side room. Although she wanted to leave as quickly as possible, she felt as if she was helpless and had no choice. In the side room, a man stood in front of a large cauldron full of boiling water. The man told my daughter that she would have to help him, and he began to climb into the pot, even though his soul was fighting against the evil in the room that was possessing his body. My daughter also could not move, because the darkness had paralyzed her. The man switched from good to evil as he was trying to escape. The force then moved her hand to a lever and she still had no choice but to pull it.  As the man was lowering himself into the pot she could see a column of light or good inside of him.  Before he was consumed totally by the evil, he told her to put a mask on to keep her from becoming like all the others who were being consumed by the darkness.  

As she pulled the lever, black liquid poured through a pipe of sorts and in a snake like manner swirled around the pot, although it did not mix with it. It coiled all through the man and entered in through his mouth until he was completely over taken. She realized that evil had just found another host. The man then laughed hysterically because evil had won and my daughter found herself suddenly freed and began to run towards the rest of the family who was approaching a stair case. She tripped and woke up.

End of dream/night vision. 

There are several things the Holy Spirit revealed to me as soon as she told me about this experience. 

The theater represents the world and the assignment we believers have been given for the Kingdom. We are lights in a dark place, and the movie about the marching band was our training and marching orders for these last days. Jesus appeared and was seen by all members of our family, except my daughter, who is having a hard time not believing the lies of the accuser. Everyone but my daughter in our group represents the family of believers who know who they are in Christ and have their hearts and eyes completely focused on Jesus, without being distracted by the world and what is going on around us. We cannot take our focus off of Jesus, not in this late hour. 

The young girl who was being lured away represents those who are  overly influenced by the world, allowing sin to remain in their lives, thus opening a breach for the enemy to gain a foothold. The Holy Spirit revealed that in these end times, many people will be lured and fall away from holiness, righteousness and Godly living. Many are even the luke-warm church, living a life full of compromise and idolatry for the things of this world.  

*When my daughter was turned away from the banquet table, she had believed the lies of the enemy that she was not worthy to be there and therefore ran away from Jesus instead of running to Him. She had been present and seated, but as she looked at her plate, she saw it as empty. The woman represented my daughters fears and beliefs of lack of worthiness. 

*Being lured into a dark room, even though she really didn't want to go, represents the feeling of hopelessness that we all have experienced at one point or another in our lives, when we believed the enemy's lie that there was no other option.  

*The scene of watching the man descend into the black boiling liquid is what is happening to millions and millions of souls as they descend further and further into unholy and sinful living until they become completely consumed and submerged. At that point, the enemy has control over them and manipulates them to serve only his purposes. My daughter could not pull her hand away from the lever because of the familiar spirits at work in her life, causing her to accept the lie that she had no choice. She felt powerless to stop the evil, even though in her heart she knows that she belongs to the King.

Father has given me the understanding and asks all believers to take this vision and its messages very seriously.  The darkness that is overcoming this earth is powerful and many who are not grounded in the Word and intimate with God will be deceived and swept away.  Do not underestimate the powers of the enemy. We are to keep the full armor of God on 24 hours a day, never removing it, and keeping it tightened so that we are ready to respond in truth and authority when the enemy attacks. He will never stop accusing us until he is finally destroyed, but we know who we are-- the children of a living God who has given us all power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and bind the enemy in His Holy name.  The enemy must flee at the name of Jesus Christ, Yahushua, and our words and prayers are powerful indeed. Let this motivate us to step up the warfare, as we are now in the battle of a lifetime. Never forget that we are more than conquerors in Jesus, but the battle is in our minds and the power to overcome is in our hearts and in our words. 

Search out the scripture(s) to know the truth and the promises that we are to walk in. Pray powerfully in the spirit. Cover your families and loved ones constantly with the blood of Jesus. Be alert and sober minded, diligent and focused. Always guard your hearts and minds to make sure that you do not agree with the enemy's accusation(s). There is always a lesson in what Father allows in our lives, and more revelation is revealed, the more you seek Him in all things.

Love and shalom,

Julie



Ephesians 6:10-18King James Version (KJV)

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

Luke 10:18-20King James Version (KJV)

18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

1 Peter 5:8-9King James Version (KJV)

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
