When the LORD first spoke to me to ‘make myself ready’ for what is coming about six months ago, I began to ask Him what I needed to do, and as He does many times, He answered me with a question.
He said, “Is your heart prepared for what I have been showing you is coming?
Change is coming in so many areas and so very quickly that you will not have time to receive clarity or understanding.
You must be prepared to move quickly and encourage those who will go with you to be ready in a moments time.
I AM raising up a true Army of The LORD to encourage those who have been flooded in the natural to the point of drowning and flooded in The Spirit with sudden breakthroughs they have waited for.
The desired breakthroughs in the midst of devastation in the world are on the heels of many betrayals and changes you never saw coming!”
The LORD began to instruct me for my immediate direction…
“I DECLARE to you that you are on the fringe of a massive Breaker Anointing that will bring Restoration and Encouragement to victims of the massive flood damage throughout your land.
I DECLARE you are being made ready to be a picture of the Father’s Heart in the midst of great devastation. You shall bring healing love to the wounded and devastated in this hour.
I DECLARE I AM sending you forth to let My Light shine in the dark despair taking place in the world. You shall pave the way for the end-time revival that I have promised for this time.
I DECLARE it is time to stop and check your heart. It is time to be honest with yourself regarding what is in your heart. Ask of me and I will show you your heart that you may be cleansed of all unrighteousness.
I DECLARE it is the now time for you to allow The Holy Spirit to take the lead, for you are facing many winds of change. I AM filling you with courage to follow hard after His lead and listen to His voice of wisdom.”
As He spoke to me, I found myself in a time to agree with Him quickly and DECREE to Him what I must do to be obedient to His declarations to me. I said, “Thank you, LORD!”
I DECREE that I see myself as The LORD sees me. I have been delivered from the spirit of deception. I will not walk in the pride of my heart. I will walk in humility and grace. I will follow hard after you.
I DECREE that I have learned to be honest with myself, and when I ask the LORD to show me my heart, I am asking Him to give me an honest heart.
I DECREE that I am humbled and honored to be called to carry His heart, and I will endeavor to keep my heart with all diligence as I grow daily in the knowledge of what that truly means.
I DECREE that as I ask the LORD to show me my heart, I will begin to take steps to ask Him to open up my heart to understand where I have had any blockage that kept me from understanding or moving forward in obedience to His plan and vision for me.
I DECLARE that everything is becoming clear and I can focus and move forward when The LORD says Now, come and follow me.
I DECLARE that my house is built on the solid ROCK. I shall not be moved.
I DECLARE that The LORD is my advocate and I run to HIM, pouring out my heart with all diligence, trusting HIM to cleanse and heal and restore me in every area of my need.
Prayer
Holy God, I say you alone are worthy of all my worship, the devotion of my heart, all my trust, all my praise, and all the glory of my life.
I give myself to you totally.
You alone are LIFE, and you have become my LIFE.
You are my true FATHER, my redeemer, my true FRIEND, and the true end of all things.
I love You. I trust You. I worship You. I give myself totally to You.
Jesus, thank you for coming to ransom me with your own life.
I give myself over to you completely.
I am forever grateful for the blood you shed for me for my cleansing and healing.
I am so thankful for The Cross and your sacrifice for me through which all my sins are atoned for and removed.
Jesus, I receive you as my life, and I triumph in your resurrection, through which you have conquered sin, death, judgment, and the evil one.
Thank you that I reign in life through your life.
With great gratitude, I receive your hope, love, faith, joy, goodness, wisdom, power, and strength afresh today in Your Mighty Name!
“A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.” Proverbs 16:18-19 NKJV.
