The Setup: We were singing the song during worship, Freedom Reigns: Where the spirit of the Lord is - there is freedom Jesus reigns in this place All week, and specifically this morning, I have been praying for Breakthrough to come through our church to our community, city, state, region and country. Breakthrough is what is needed for the days to come. (There is another word that explains breakthrough further. I received it yesterday entitled; I Am the Pearl of Great Price. Freedom Raining and Breakthrough coming are words given in unity.) As we were worshiping I saw golden raindrops coming down onto everyone in the sanctuary. I felt it was a rain of anointing to bring deliverance. The Lord required me to discreetly report this to our pastor, but I am not so sure how clearly I delivered the message. It was such a holy moment and there was such a strong sense of urgency from the Lord. The presence of God was so intense that I was shaking all over. The following word is what the Lord spoke to me as worship concluded. What is really fascinating is that the message preached was about releasing the baggage we carry and specifically breaking addictions. I had most of this written by the time he spoke, so it was a sweet confirmation of the presence of God in the house. The Word from the Lord: The golden rain that you see is the rain of My freedom to break addictions. Freedom rains when I AM comes into the room. Freedomreigns when I AM comes into the room! This is not to say that I am not always with you, as I Am, however, thisrain doesn't fall in the same place continually. When you feel your time with Me has been dry, it is because the ground of your soul is parched. I come with My rain to give you a chance to get replenished. Do not allow the rain to run-off and be wasted. When I rain on you that is your moment of deliverance, if you will but allow My Spirit to reign! I want you to be so fully washed by My Living Water that you will have an abundance to share with others. So let the rain of My presence come and refresh you. I want to rain My glory down on you, but you must allow Me to reign in your life. If you think your plan to get yourself out of the bear-trap will work, then I suppose you will have to wrestle with it further. The addiction that has been sprung on you has been set by the enemy. He has seized your life and is relentless. That trap you are in is daunting and deadly to you. It has a hold on you and you are powerless against it. That struggle seems so pointless when I AM stands next to you ready to open it for you. Hebrews 12:1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Until you throw off your pride and allow Me - the God of the universe to open the trap, you will remain ensnared in it. Can't you see that My ability to spring you from the trappings of addictions are so much higher, so much greater, so much more efficient and thorough than any and all efforts you can make? You even deny your own condition. You lay there with the jaws clamped tightly around you and yet you tell Me and others around you that there is no trap - it doesn't exist. Yet everyone can see that it has a hold of you. Those trying to help bring you freedom are shamed to scorn. The truth is, child, you are in a trap of your own making and there is no way out in your own strength. BUT DO NOT DESPAIR! Allow Me to open the trap, heal your wounds and reconstruct the missing parts. Your light will break forth like the dawn, and your healing will quickly appear. I will rise with healing in My wings. Then you will walk in My freedom. You will walk in My grace. You will walk in My glory. Arise, shine for the glory of the Lord rises upon you and My glory will appear over you! Heb 4:16 Let us therefore approach the throne of grace with boldness, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Forever in God's grace, |
