An Exhortation From The Father’s Heart To Yours: Victor or Victim
“Have you been called into My kingdom to be a victor or a victim? My glorious kingdom has no place for victims. This is not to say that if you have suffered a crime, disease or accident that you are not welcome in the Kingdom of God. What this means is that you will not be able to enter My presence with a spirit of self-pity that relives the past.
“I have made you more than a conqueror. You have been given the power and authority and the grace to get through every situation life can throw at you. You are not a victim. Come out of your place of depression and anxiety and come sit at My table of gladness. Come eat My bread. There is more than enough to go around. Come eat at the table of life. I have set before you a banquet of life and offer it all to you. Will you come? Will you eat at the victor’s table of life or will you wallow as a victim in the gutter?”
Deuteronomy 30:19b I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life
“Do not be a victim of yesterday. Be a victor of today! Rise up and take your place at the table of My grace and let us eat together at the banquet of life.”
First Choice: A word from the Father’s heart to yours on hearing Him though the clamor.
“When those who are called by My name do things their way, they often cause themselves and others great harm. I know that it is very easy to see those things going on around you and react to them. They are in your face (so to speak), and so you feel you must deal with them the best you can. However, if Mine (those belonging to Christ Jesus) would take even a moment to ask of Me, I would give a better solution. Some situations require immediate response from you and this is why continually seeking Me beforehand is so important. It is much easier for Me to drop the needed solutions, ideas, and plans if your mind is already focused on Me. (It is easier for you to hear.)
“I am not your last resort, I Am your First Choice!
“This is why I tell you to come boldly in your time of need. When you are in need, that is not the time to be kicking at the gravel under your foot with your head down wondering if it is okay to talk to Me. If you get to know Me, then you will be assured and reassured by the relationship we have established and you will know you are safe to approach Me.
“If you make Me your First Choice (of who to talk to, who to get your advice from, who to trust), then each day you will hear more and more clearly. When the time of need arises, there will be no sense of fear, shame or distrust because you will enjoy a sense of belonging – knowing I will indeed work on your behalf!
“I love you with an everlasting love and I long for you to come and walk with Me. Will you make Me your First Choice?”
Lovingly yours,
Abba
Hebrews 4:14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Amen!

Come Dine at My Table of Hope: A word From The Father
“Write this concerning the gross darkness blanketing this rising generation: There has been unleashed upon the earth a brutal spirit of cynicism as never seen. What once would have been unheard of to speak to another out of concern for the other’s well-being is now being shouted without restraint throughout the global internet community.
“Words (spoken or written) bring life or death, correction or rebellion, encouragement or discouragement. You can cause another to stumble and live in darkness because of your words, or you can lift others up and bring the light of hope back to their eyes. Remember, you will be held accountable for every word uttered.
“This rising generation is being bombarded with words that do not edify, comfort, build or instruct. These words wound their souls beyond recognition and cause heard-heartedness; they defame and undermine one’s future and hope. Without vision my people perish and what many are listening to on a continual basis is bringing their hearts down in fear, discouragement and depression.
“The enemy of your souls is attempting to unleash a spirit of death, suicide and murder over this generation like the world has never seen. For an example, he is using the words being broadcast throughout the internet in the form of comments to unleash great harm. Many of those words are in agreement with his plans. This is why your willingness to continually release My words of life are so vital at this time.
“Those who eat at My Table of Delight will share the hope, joy, peace, compassion, edification and love that is given there! However, those who eat at the table of Continual Discontent will ingest the putrid meal of blame, contention, gossip, slander and death. They will vomit it out on everyone near them. I Am your Shield and in My presence I will keep you from being defiled.
“I have set a table before you of hope and blessings. It is served in My presence. You are not to get into agreement with what the enemy is saying, but what I AM saying! Do not clamor and say, “It is a conspiracy!” Have you not heard, “Come, let us magnify the Lord and let us exalt His name together”? Wait for Me even if it seems I Am hiding My face from you; for I shall surely move on your behalf if you wait.
“Do not be in fear of what others dread – as their food continually feeds their worst nightmares.
“Come My beloved, come and sit at My table and eat of life and light. Eat My bread and drink My wine. Fill yourself on the meat of My provision. Eat what is good and let your soul delight in abundance.
“Where you see others speaking death, you speak life. Where they speak judgment, you speak mercy. Where they speak ignorant opinions, you speak My mind in the matter and bring the word of hope I give you. (If there is not hope or life in your words, they are not from Me.) Bring the goodness of My hope and love to your conversations, and see what I do in your life in spite of the gross darkness surrounding you.
Be My salt
Be My light
Be My hands
Be My feet
Be My voice
Your Ever-present,
Abba

“As water in My hand flows where I desire, so too will I turn the hearts of leaders. Judgment begins in My house and to those called by My name. Justice will flow in the house of the LORD like a river of oil. It will ignite a fire of passion for those pursuing Me, but a fire of destruction to those who are doing things their own way. Those who are tuned in to My voice, like Eli, but whose sons were disobedient and unruly, will be required to trust in My plans when I show them how they need to rebuke their rebellious children. They must trust My ways over their own love for their children. These rebellious sons are under a curse because their fathers are like Eli refusing to bring correction where correction is due. Their sons defile My temple, yet nothing is said. The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. When offerings given for My purpose are used for their gain, judgment is at the door. My “Eli” (minister/priest in My house) turns a blind eye and now the curse has fallen upon the grandchildren who are unruly and undisciplined. The door to wickedness has been opened to them and no longer is there a hedge of protection around the children which was once My pleasure to give.
“One of the most dangerous thoughts My “Anointed” can have is for them to think they are in right standing with Me because I continue to bless their ministry. Some examples:
One who is in sin prays for the sick and the sick recovers, so he thinks he is in good standing with Me. However, this one was healed because of My mercy and love being poured out to the sick, not necessarily because of the anointing on the one who prayed. Mercy moves My heart.
Another has great teachings and insight, so he thinks that since I gave him this understanding, I am ok with his sin and am willfully turn a blind eye to it; however, My heart is moved by those in the congregation listening. His sin will be – WILL BE – dealt with later, but he thinks because his message was anointed he is in good standing with Me. He is not.
Yet another has great visions and sees and writes of My revelations, yet fails to understand what I have shown. The vision of the Church is My hope for her. I am moving her in that direction, but you cannot put new wine in old wine skins.
"I want my sons and daughters to see that the churches and the ministries I have entrusted into their care are under their stewardship, not their ownership. Those are My ministries – those are My churches and any who touch them are not to defile them! When they touch My flock, they literally touch Me. I would rather that work which I started be destroyed and brought down in ruins than to share it with sinful rebellious children who will would thoughtlessly wound My flock. Remember I raised up Samuel and brought down Eli and his sons.
“Many examples could be given, but My Spirit will reveal all things and how this may apply to you. As I show you, then understand that repentance (turning from this sin) is required, not requested. I Am quick to forgive and My mercy endures forever.
“There is an end coming to the “Sons of Eli” and that end will not be pretty. If the fathers do not rise up and take a stand, I WILL! I am giving them time to correct the situation and to repent, but the clock is ticking down. The hour is late. I will not allow My glory to be shared with the hard-hearted children of Eli. Repentance must be immediate lest I come and remove the Lampstand in their midst.
“My will shall be carried out. I Am not wringing My hands in the days of your rebellion, but I will not wrestle with flesh forever. Remember, My discipline and correction is given for you to reap the peaceable fruit of righteousness. Allow yourself to receive My rebuke and you will see and be part of the harvest your heart desires. Do not allow these bitter roots to grow in My sanctuary and defile My flock any longer. It is to be rooted out. My word is clear. I also gave Esau as an example of an ungrateful son and his example is to be heeded. Learn from the mistakes of Eli and Esau and do not follow their footsteps no matter the cost. Guard the Lampstand and do not allow My glory to depart.”
Your Abba
Scriptures To Ponder:
Matthew 10:37 - He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
Hebrews 12:11 - Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
15-17 looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled; lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright. For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.

An Odd Encounter Turns Into A Word Of Encouragement And Hope From The Father’s Heart To Yours: Anointed Kingdom Encounters
Earlier this week, I was merging onto an interstate highway and really wasn’t paying attention to my speed – I was focused on my plan for the day. As I accelerated, I came upon a utility van in the right lane and went to pass him on his left. (In the USA we are to pass, or overtake, in the left lane.) I looked to my left, but there was a red car coming up fast to pass me. I checked my speed and was surprised to see I was already traveling at 80mph (128kph) and more shocking, this person was going to pass me! I felt annoyed because it seemed the driver was pinning me behind the slow van, but as it passed me I happened to notice the license plates. Because the Lord gave me two messages the week before using license plates, I took notice! (This is not a normal thing for me.) I won’t say what state it was from, but the letters were “AKE” and there were three 7’s. I recognized there was a “heavenly” message involved when I saw the three 7’s and immediately said, “Okay Lord, what are you showing me!?!” As I was praying about it, I noticed the type of car was a “Focus”. I literally laughed out loud and said, “Yes Lord, I am focusing on the RED FOCUS. What are you saying?”
After really seeking Him on this for a few days, here is what He said,
“The FOCUS is to be on the blood of Jesus and how My passion for the Church redeemed her. You will see more AKE’s - Anointed Kingdom Encounters! AKE’s will come upon you suddenly. You may think you are going fast, but I Am about to OVERTAKE you and lead the way. You may be irritated for a moment – until you recognize it is My leading.
“You can expect angelic help in the areas in which you have been anointed. Be cautioned not to worship angels which has been an ongoing temptation for mankind. They are servants – you are sons (you who believe Christ Jesus is the Lord). You are to co-operate with My heavenly hosts, not worship them. God Almighty is the Only One worthy of worship. You are to do My will alone.
“I Am releasing kingdom keys and kingdom authority. Will you lock what I require you to lock? Will you unlock what I want to release? I Am coming SUDDENLY – FOCUS on My voice, FOCUS on My leading, FOCUS on My provision bought for you on the Cross of Calvary. My very blood bought your freedom. I released you from the bondage of your sin and iniquity by My shed blood. I hold the keys of death and Hades. I come to the aid of all who are tempted.
“I will give you ideas and will bring about circumstances to make those ideas a reality if you are faithful to develop them.
“You will encounter Me in ways you have only dreamed possible. I will speak through the simple and the complex. I will speak through galaxies and quarks (the largest and the smallest known entities). I Am your Father and you know My voice. If you don’t know it yet, I will teach you as any father teaches their children their voice – by talking to you. Focus on Me! I Am who has called you and I call you Mine. I love you with an everlasting love and I am showing you My ways which are not your own. Expect sudden and anointed kingdom encounters with your Father!”
Forever in My grace,
Abba

A Word Of Encouragement And Hope From The Father’s Heart To Yours: The Birthing
“There is a squeeze going on. Many feel like they have been put in a sieve. Remember when I told Peter that Satan desired to sift him as wheat, but I had prayed for his faith not to fail?
“I Am ever interceding for My Church to be overcomers I Am ever beckoning her to come to My Throne of Grace to receive mercy in time of need. My instruction is to comeboldly – not like abused, neglected or abandoned children who are fearful to approach their father. Come with confidence and know you are My prized possessions, My jewels, My flowers, My children!
“The Cross provided for you an inheritance that is sure and stable. It doesn’t fluctuate like your Bear and Bull Markets. As I have told you, gold and silver will corrode and are subject to thieves, but to My kingdom there is no end. My jewels have gotten their eyes on the problems set before them and in their shortsightedness they have forgotten to magnify Me in their circumstances.
“There is no condemnation in My words. I don’t seek to condemn but to draw you near. Remember I inhabit the praises of My people – I abide in worship. You will and do sense My presence like no other time when you abandon yourself to worship Me in spirit and in truth. It may be a sacrifice to bring Me praise, but even though it feels like your guts will come out if you praise Me, there is no better time to offer it! That sacrifice comes up as sweet incense to My nostrils. The more difficult your circumstance, the sweeter the offering is to Me. I know it is your costly perfume. The testing of your faith is precious in My eyes.
“Come through the channel. Come through the keyhole. Come through the gate – the eye of the needle. Everything that binds you will be scraped off and you will run the race set before you unfettered. Embrace the work of the Cross (death of the flesh and its ways). Go through the birthing canal of My perfect will. Praise and worship Me in spirit and truth, and know that I Am interceding for you to receive the prize reserved just for you.
“I Am birthing something in you, My jewel! I Am birthing something of great and lasting value. No thief can steal it. Nothing can cause it to rot, rust or corrode. What I Am doing will last throughout time as your reward is everlasting. When Mary was told she would conceive a son, her response was for it to be done to her according to My will. She is your example in birthing something of Me! Let My will be done in your life! Mary’s last recorded words were for the servants at the wedding at Cana to do whatever Jesus told them to do. You too are to hear His instruction. In a parable Jesus taught there were two men who had built houses that were hit by terrible storms, but only one stood. This was likened to hearing His words and doing them.
“You are in the canal. You are being birthed into My will. My will is perfect, so follow My lead.”
In My grace,
Abba Father

In prayer I saw a large oak tree and the Lord told me to climb it. I climbed up and sat on the first big limb. Then He told me, "Go out to the end of the limb."
I scooted out until I knew the limb couldn't hold my weight and stopped. The Lord said again, "Go out to the end of the limb."
I scooted out a little more, but I knew in my mind that there was no way that I could go any further without the limb breaking. Though I was on the bottom limb, it would have been at least a 20 foot fall, so I stopped.
Again the Lord spoke to me, "Go out to the end of the limb."
I protested and told Him that there was no way that branch, which was as smaller than my pinkie finger, was going to hold me up.
He said, "If I have called you to go out on a limb, then I will hold it up. Just then I saw the tree and me in it as though I was watching the whole thing from afar. When he said, "I will hold it up' I saw a huge angel standing underneath the branch holding it up!
The Lord further cautioned me that I was not to go out on just any limb. I was to only go out on the limbs which He had called me to go out on. He said that those He had not called me to go out on - He was not obligated to support.
A Word From The Lord’s Heart To Yours: A More Excellent Way
“Whom the Son sets free is free indeed. I want you to come to Me unhindered and unfettered. The world’s pulls are increasing at a rate never seen in history. Communication around the world is a constant where in days gone by they were non-existent. Yet in all the communications, only a small portion is directed at Me. Even My Church tends to sing and talk about Me, but not to Me. Many who come to Me only come to give Me their laundry list of what they want Me to do for them. While I do want My people to ask of Me, I want them to first come and sit and listen.
“Come close. I will teach you how to pray from a heart that moves Mine. Sit by My side. Let Me show you a more excellent way. It is a way of love and strength, of courage and compassion, of hope and joy, of kindness and mercy. My perfected love will cast out all your fears and anxieties. All the fears of what could happen will melt away as you see Who holds your future.
“My plans will not be thwarted. They will flow as water through a river. If the river gets obstructed, the water finds another way to reach its destination, but make no mistake; it does reach its destination.
“Will you allow Me to flow through you to My final destination, or will you be obstinate? If you choose to do things your own way and in your own timing, then I will find another to flow through. It is your choice. Either way, My will is done on earth as it is in heaven; however, I have a plan for you that is only fulfilled as you take My hand and walk with Me. It is only realized when you allow Me to flow through you as water through a river’s bank.
“If you allow Me to shape, bend and mold you to My will, you will find yourself as valuable as the Gold of Ophir. This is the value I desire to bring out in you. If you are willing, your worth in My kingdom will be great and sought out by many.
“Will you be malleable in My hands? Will you invest your worth in My will? Will you allow Me to shape your boundaries and flow through you to the end?

Because of the blood of Christ we are fellow-citizens of God's household - being carefully joined to become a holy temple to the Lord. It is in this dwelling where God lives by His Spirit.
A Word Of Encouragement And Hope From The Father’s Heart To Yours:
“As many of you have sensed, it has been a year of pruning and though it’s been difficult to endure, I Am a God of hope! With pruning comes a sweet and bountiful harvest.”*
“It was also a year to see the leaven of heaven rise! My leaven brings a lightening of your load. My leaven brings a flavorful taste of heaven. Taste and see that Your Lord is good. My mercy really does endure forever. My loving-kindness surrounds your daily walk.
“Many have cried to Me to end the pain of the pruning, but once you have been pruned it is time for healing. Then will come a season of growth. I Am the Author and Finisher of your faith and am more interested in developing your character than anything else; and that comes when you persevere in tribulation. This will instill a hope in you that no one can take so that no matter what is going on in the world around you, you will not be disappointed!
“I love you. Do you truly believe that – even though I have not rushed to bring you out of the circumstance that has caused you pain? Do you see I’ve systematically exposed the leaven in your life that has contradicted My plan for you?
“I warned to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees. This is the leaven that causes religious people to puff up with the hot air of self-importance. Legalism is the wellspring of pride, arrogance and elitism. These believe they are high and mighty. This is what causes their noses to physically go up in the air and look down on others expecting them to live up to their standards. I Am the Standard!
“I warned to beware of the leaven of the Sadducees for their religion is founded in error. Like the Pharisees they think they have it right, but they are scripturally wrong. They lead others into error and sin. I Am the Way, the Truth and the Life and no one can come to the Father except through Me,”says the Lord.
“I warned to beware of the leaven of Herod – that is to say, THE WORLD’S SYSTEM. His was the fleshly way of doing things. He was thirsty for power and never was satiated. He always wanted more, but was continually lacking. The governments of this world are like rivers in My hand. As you have seen world leaders’ fall this past year, you will see Me move in ways that are unprecedented. What I will do in the coming days will be undeniable – though some will do their best to refute that it’s Me. The earth is the LORD’S as are those who dwell therein.
“If you have allowed the Leaven of Heaven from twenty-eleven (2011) to be worked into your hearts, you will see more from the Third Heaven in the coming days. If not, ask Me, and I will help you make up for lost time. My desire is to show you My perspective as I see things much differently than you do. I have unusual battle plans and strategies to release. My perspective on world events will allow you to see beyond what is happening on earth and prepare you for a harvest which will increase in and beyond twenty-twelve. I have a hope and a future for you. I Am the God who sees.
“The time of times is upon you. If you look up, you can see the rising of the water. I gave a sign through a surfer who gloriously rode a 90’ wave. What I said through that specific event was that the wave is upon you and it will soon be time to ride it. Position yourself! Position yourself! Position yourself!”
Isaiah 60:1 Arise, shine for your light has come! The glory of the LORD is risen upon you.
“Keep doing the things I have asked you to do. Keep studying. Keep seeking Me. Stop condemning yourself and watch the shackles fall off. Stay by My side and you will know what you need to do. Keep your eyes open. Keep your eyes on Me.
“Watch and see what I do in this day and hour. Eye has not seen what I will do. Have I not spoken it? I will surely cause it to come to pass. All will be surprised. Some will be delighted, but more will be in terror because they’ve failed to understand.
“It is my desire that you bring more people to the Table of My Delight. The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.”
Forever your,
Papa

Ministry Note: There is a great expectation for ministry – which is sharing the Father’s love to nations. The Lord asks who will go and my heart’s cry is “send me!” I am particularly seeing all of Europe (especially where the “ground” has been very rocky, thorny, barren difficult to plow) becoming fertile and workable soil for the Kingdom of God.

A Word From The Father’s Heart To Yours: Will You Embrace Your Destiny?
“I have called you to the nations* to a destiny and I am asking you now, Will you embrace your destiny?
“This is a time of new beginnings and you are called for such a time as this. Know that you were chosen to be in this day and in this time. There is a vast cloud of witnesses who beckon you to move forward in the power of My Resurrected Son.
“Do not come to Me with your list of all your inadequacies and tell Me why you are unable to line up your will with Mine. I already know you are unable and that is precisely why I called you! You must know that what is impossible with man is possible with Me. I Am that I Am! I Am sufficient for all you need. Do not say any longer that you are unable. That, dear child, has already been established!
“Will you will lay everything down and pick up your mantle, continually wear it, and go where I send you? I will give you everything you need when you need it if you will obey My promptings. As you obey, the provision you need will already be waiting for you on My path, so do not look at what you do not have as you begin to step out in your destiny. Have faith and know that I will provide for you. Shed the garment of doubt and clothe yourself in My mantle.
“Will you honor Me by quickly coming into agreement with Me when I ask you to do something? Know that I start with small things. As you comply with My Spirit in the small things, I can move you into the bigger purpose that I have. Do not despise small beginnings, dear one. I start there with everyone. Even Jesus had small beginnings.
“I have called you to a destiny; will you embrace your destiny?”
You ARE More Than A Conqueror!
“Will you honor Me by looking at what I can do instead of what you can do?
“Beware of the spirit of fear and timidity. Will you embrace the call on your life or not? If you embrace fear you cannot also embrace your destiny of faith in Me. When you embrace fear you are proclaiming that I am not faithful! You may not realize this is what you are doing, but it is. Faith cannot exist where fear resides. You must exterminate fear. My love fights fear! My love conquers fear! I set before you a choice. Choose faith or fear. I will give you the answer, choose faith!
“Fear expects Me to be unfaithful and to break My promises to you. Fear expects the worst before it has happened. Faith will cause you to see the miraculous through the eyes of your heart first and then you will see the miraculous right before your very eyes. You have to see it first by My spirit, then you will see it in the natural. You can attract what you fear to yourself, or you can attract to yourself what you hope for. The choice is yours. I give an established warning: Guard your heart with all diligence for out of it the issues of life flow.
“Know that I desire for you to expect the best before it happens. I desire that when you see a storm approaching, you will expect Me to move on your behalf. Doubt your doubts! I have called you to be MORE than a conqueror. What this means is that you can know you have won the battle before ever entering it. The Greater One lives in you. You ARE more than a conqueror because I have already won!”
Seeds Of DestinyProduce Fruit!
“I have planted in you seeds of destiny. Will you allow the Living Word to water those seeds? Will you allow the Light of My Salvation to shine through you until those seeds grow to bear fruit?
“My dear one, do you not yet know that I desire for you to have an entire orchard of trees that overflow with fruit? There is sweet succulent fruit to be grown, harvested and enjoyed. All of the harvest will be brought to My banqueting table. My banner over you is love.”
