"The people were all so amazed that they asked each other, 'What is this? A new teaching...and with authority! He even gives orders to evil spirits and they obey him.'" Mark 1:27

"Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come. All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting men's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God." 2 Corinthians 5:17-20

"Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed...not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence...continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and act according to his good purpose." Philippians 2:12-13

I often contemplate Peter's innermost thoughts as he stepped out of that boat at Jesus' invitation. Without question, he had experienced his fair share of criticism for denying the Savior and being intimidated by governmental and religious figures. Yet, at that moment of determination, as the wind and waves promoted a potential move toward the miraculous, Peter ventured into the unseen (faith) realm, without hesitation. The man's steps were certain. He didn't sink. There was a Rock beneath him. In fact, the Lord's disciple was on more solid footing than those declining the obvious opportunity.

Faith begins where the will of God is known. Peter, having gone from a wimp to a Son of Thunder, sought the Creator's heart. Jesus had become more real to him than his physical surroundings. The Word made Flesh spoke, and corresponding actions culminated in a well documented manifestation. Atoms, molecules and elements yielded to the Revelator's Voice. Peter, cognizant of that marvelous invitational Presence, set aside the natural, enjoyed a previously unknown side of the Redeemer, and he resoundingly made history!

We live in a world where people are richly dominated by their senses, through tasting, seeing, hearing, feeling and smelling. Have you ever contemplated the fact that most of us are often deceived when trusting physical perceptions, since things are rarely as they appear? You and I will never be satisfied as passengers in a little boat. Not unlike our Leader, we love the miraculous and will only be satisfied by doing business in the depths of unchartered waters. "Supernatural remains our middle name. We hunger for and seek the previously invisible for one primary purpose, transporting Heaven to earth, and benefiting humanity via Christ's finished work.

One might exclaim, "Seeing is believing!" Well, to some extent that's true. However, in God's inverted, yet, more accurate system, the opposite maintains greater validity. Believing is seeing, a place where the Believer calls those things that be not as though they were, until each becomes. Remember...the Word became flesh and dwelt among men. Which came first? The answer to that question is clear...the Word, that awesome blueprint the Father gestated and embraced on the inside. At a specific point He spoke, and substance was added to vision.

Destiny makes itself known through dreams and visions. I cannot adequately emphasize the importance of trusting that peaceful stirring within one's spirit, those nudgings and promptings from the Throne Room. Quite often, the "knowing" is accompanied by a gift of faith for what God has revealed. The realness of that hope (blueprint of faith...the end product) becomes more potent than the seen, or temporal, causing the latter to pale by comparison. We actually learn to walk in the realm of revelatory vision, embracing, gestating and birthing Covenant's promises.

Think of each revelation as a Seed from Heaven, implanted within your womb to bear fruit. What does the New Testament say about that Divine impartation? Immediately, not in a day or two, but right away, the enemy comes to rob Heaven's Seed. How does he do that? The cares of this world (what individuals generally care, worry and obsess about), along with the deceitfulness of riches (not having enough, possessing too much, saluting flesh through the influence of the influential) are tools of his trade.

I often reflect upon what the Spirit once shared..."Paul, Jesus will initially arrive in Presence, then in Person." Simply stated, this world will be full of knowledge, pertaining to His Glory, before our Savior transports the Bride in His Cloud of Condensation ... manifestation, those "greater works than these."

Each hour is loaded with opportunities to lose focus. Cultivating vertical intimacy with the Author and Finisher of Faith remains paramount. Even the cream of the crop will be deceived in these final days, without that orientation. However, he who dwells in the Secret Place will surely receive unconditional love, inspired guidance, as well as strategy for destiny, protection and empowerment.

The Christian's job is to maintain simplicity by being true to his vision, while not disobeying or venturing beyond that Anointing. The precious Holy Spirit has a job to do, as He takes hold together with us in everything pertaining to life and godliness. Each eye must perpetually be on Him, as the Church fulfills Her mandate of making disciples of all men, restoring and reconciling what was originally lost as a direct result of the fall. Of utmost importance is walking in love...the Father's! Faith works that way, and His affection never fails. Contemplate this fact every moment of the day. During Jesus' ministry here, He would catch the fish before cleaning them. Nothing has changed. We must do the same by loving each sinner, recognizing the Holy Spirit's responsibility of transformation, changing those dirty diapers, assisting each Infant in a straightening up of his act...that Glory to Glory process.

Signs and wonders are the dinner bell of the Holy Spirit. They are His bait, so to speak. The Fragrance of God's love invariably draws multitudes into the Kingdom's Restaurant of satiation, where a table has been set in the presence of enemies to counter captivity in all departments...from healing to provision!

I discern the Revelator has more to say about this matter.

"Beloved, salvation for spirit, soul, body, finances...total prosperity, will be made so simple and clear for everyone in these days of revelation and manifestation. Satan has been permitted to confuse and muddy the waters for far too long. Please know, I have personally drawn a line in the sand through a revelation in you, that vision within, those bowels of compassion, a place where, together, We will permit him to steal no longer. As with that well known woman suffering with an issue of blood, your obedience places a demand on My virtue and ability. Indeed, even as I speak, your intercessory prayers and acts are drawing from Glory's reservoir. Reflect on the value of signs and wonders emanating from a mindset of alleviating the byproducts (consequences) of sin...sickness, suffering, poverty and death. In terms of souls, how many would gladly enter the Kingdom, once My true heart and nature were revealed? May I use a visual and practical example? Walk into a funeral home. Speak to that little one in the casket, as directed by Me. When, not if, she arises, a multitude of previously silent questions will be answered. Think of the people who will gladly flow into the House through that act (Book of Acts) of love! As someone once said, 'Actions speak louder than words.' I fully agree! In former days, many were added, Churchwise, in direct proportion and response to a miracle. You see, it isn't so much the signs and wonders that matter, although fully preaching the Gospel and being approved of God assuredly involve them, but what counts is that open display of truth...what really is going on in Dad's thoughts. More lies have been propagated and believed about Me, than you! But did I not promise vindication of the Bride and the Word in Her? As the record is set straight, spiritual cataracts and, in some cases, total blindness will be remedied. Occupants of this planet must become aquatinted with their God's heart and posture, just as I Am known in the Throne Room. Those in the Valley of Decision are to be enlightened and cross over into the Land of Promise. No excuse for unbelief will stand, since the upcoming harvest is not only great...prolific in the miraculous, but will be loaded with convicted skeptics! Let My Glory do the job! Goodness and mercy, Heaven's Twins, will follow you throughout that ministry. Use them as lethal weapons against the adversary!"

"The flood is approaching! Build that ark, Beloved! Let the critics taunt and laugh. Nevertheless, you are marching to the beat of a different Drummer, poised to do great business in a world that needs love in so many ways...word, thought and deed. Just as the first man...Adam, was put to sleep by the Creator for a work of the miraculous, Jesus went through a similar process in the tomb, an experience which resulted in a mighty manifestation of resurrection on that third day. Such is the case with you, Dear One. During each lull, those quiet, seemingly unproductive periods, a preparation is taking place. The Sleeping Giant remains poised to arise in the Cloud of My Presence, where signs and wonders will be secondary to the Glory. It will be a position of absolute revelation, regarding your Creator's love and destiny for each life, those rights and privileges in Our Covenant. The hour is quickly approaching when humanity will fall on their faces before Me, even in the strangest of places. In fact, that is precisely where I will move first...the dark regions where My Word has been dormant and ineffective. During that moment, spiritual cataracts must yield to a proliferation of Light and Life, while people behold the Author and Finisher of their faith, a first time encounter for many. And with that wonderful unveiling of the Contract will arrive instant healing, empowerment, prosperity, a Supernatural knowing of who the Children are in Christ. Precious Bride, health and sufficiency are only a small part of what the Blood has provided. They are to be automatic, with no exclusions or exceptions. Much of what the Church has been seeking in prayer belongs to Her already (Covenant). This unprecedented Army will be catapulted to the four corners of the earth with a single eye...that of reconciling, restoring, setting the captive free and possessing the land. Rejoice in Our pending Third (resurrection) Day! Nothing, and no one, will ever be the same. A new level of worship and praise has already begun impacting the Youngsters, one in which God's habitation is experientially visible in numerous forms...Pillars of Smoke, Fire and creative acts from the Throne. There won't be a spot on this planet that is absent of Glory's Essence and Nature. Just as the Spirit brooded over an earth that was void and without form, so will He do that again...from seminary to the cemetery! The spoken dream or vision, that acted upon internal stirring, in many instances, will result in an immediate display of tangibility. Understand, patient Intercessor, no moment has been lost in that season of waiting. Again, the Agent of form and substance is at the starting line, eagerly anticipating an onslaught of activity that will turn nations around in a day. Your hour has come! Impossible has no place in this Commander's vocabulary. Heaven's Delivery Room joyfully anticipates an unparalleled arrival of Little Ones! Strictly adhere to, and depend upon, the Covenant, Anointing and Glory. No man knows the exact hour. However, Heaven has ordained you to recognize seasons. The Tide is approaching! Nothing can prevent this move. Prepare to launch out into the depths of your sustained call, and do business in deep waters where the most fish reside...yes, even the big ones! The sunny beach (comfort zone) will no longer be peaceful and fulfilling in these marvelous days of newness. Sense that dissatisfaction. It is assuredly of Me. Therein lies the substance of vision and Creation's grand finale!"
