A Letter To A Daughter Of Zion.
March 31, 1999: Greetings,
When I dug out the worn notes written long ago I had no intent for any preamble. Yet THE MOST HOLY SPIRIT was most intent at reminding me of the circumstances and the aftermath. Why now after all this time this most intimate of memories is to be published? Then again why would it bother me? Maybe because I did not learn the lesson back then. Maybe it was not the ''appointed time". Only when the pieces were put together, did the answer to the "why?'' of six years ago is able to be answered now. Proving HE is faithful even when we forget the original question. It was the year after Hurricane Andrew, and an intercessor heard the call to gather all the intercessors to pray. All of us had struggled to rebuild homes and lives. The rebuilding of the church we were members of had one set back after another. For some of us there was a common desire/burden to gather and seek GOD. To intercede and restore the breach. A night was chosen and those that were burdened gathered after much individual prayer and fasting. In the third hour of travail something occurred to me that did not fit into the planned ''agenda''. It was not the answer, but it was. Only now do I know it, understand it. We had lifted up our pastor and the sheep in his care. We had been intense and focused, but none felt a ''breakthrough''. Quiet resignation was what we walked away with. Through the years we had come together and prayed as THE MOST HOLY SPIRIT directed, but now all we heard was to ''go home'' and be still. We did. Of the core of ten to twelve prophetic intercessors that had hedged this pasture, for years, all but one was removed within three years. The one who was called to lead the company of intercessors and to teach the BASIC TRAINING course....no longer intercedes or teaches. We were told why, but did not realize it. Or should I say that I was told why. But I did not understand it. And like any obedient servant I went to the Pastor....and was told by ''authority'' it was not relevant. Now I know the response was a lie. THE VINEYARD While in prayer we all were asking why the problems to the rebuilding of the ''Sanctuary". While focusing on the problem and seeking THE FATHER'S FACE I found myself standing in a wondrous place. It was unfamiliar for the only place I had ever been in was the pasture with the MASTER'S SHEEP. But now I heard that Voice I heard when I first breathed in HIS LIFE after being pulled from the pit. While I had never before seen HIM, but His VOICE I had hoped to hear again. AND now HE STOOD before me. "COME WALK WITH ME CHILD'', HE invited as HE reached down HIS HAND and took mine. When HIS HAND touched mine it was like every sense in my body exploded. It was like I was acutely aware of everything about me. Every sound and every color was perceived in a fullness indescribable. But it was the smells. Everything had a unique and a wondrous scent. Then I noticed that THE FATHER had a ''perfume'' that was as much a part of Him as the sound of HIS VOICE and the TOUCH of HIS HAND. Casually we walked together and came to this VINEYARD. What was unique is there was but one VINE. It came forth from the ground and had one great trunk that went to the LEFT and to the RIGHT. The single trunk that branched to make two looked old and strong. Like it had been there for a long, long time. As THE FATHER walked down the length of the VINE every few feet there was a branch. HE showed me where each branch had been carefully grafted into the VINE. and HE explained. "CHILD, EACH BRANCH I HAVE GRAFTED INTO MY VINE. I REMEMBER EACH ONE. WHEN IT WAS GRAFTED AND WHAT IT HAS PRODUCED". As we walked I noticed areas where there was areas of bare vine. That sometimes several branches were bare, brown and looked dead to me. When THE FATHER came to such some HE removed at the graft site, others HE drastically pruned back and explained that there was still life in the branch and HE would wait a little longer. Then there were areas where there was life and the foliage was thin. Again HE pruned back all the leaves leaving only bare branches, green in color. There was much life that could flow through this branch, by pruning back. THE FATHER was giving it a chance. So we walked along as HIS HANDS and the pruning knife moved with surety pruned when needed and removed when necessary. Dead and diseased branches were removed without emotion or hesitation. As HE pruned and removed I would gather the cuttings. When they were hard for me to handle HE would stop and tie each bundle and set it aside off the path. When HE did this HE told me THE STORY of the VINEYARD. LONG AGO I PLANTED MY VINEYARD AND IT DID NOT BEAR GOOD FRUIT. SO I REMOVED THOSE VINES AND REPLACED THEM. I PLANTED THIS MOST SPECIAL VINE AND IT'S ROOTS GO VERY DEEP. THE LIFE OF THE VINE FLOWS THROUGH THE VINE TO THE BRANCHES I AND I ALONE HAVE GRAFTED INTO MY VINE. IT IS THE LIFE THAT FLOWS THROUGH THE VINE THAT ALLOWS THE BRANCHES TO GRAFT INTO THE VINE AND TO GROW. As we returned to the Vine we came to branches that had grown almost as large as the VINE itself and had produced branches that came off of it. THE FATHER moved the large dark green leaves and showed me clusters of grapes uniform in shape, color and size. With ease of movement cut the ripe clusters and placed them into HIS basket. With a smile HE turned to me with a grape and placed it into my mouth. I had never tasted anything sweeter in my life. Every few steps there was a new branch, some had a few clusters, some had many. There were grapes of every color imaginable, light green to pink, bright red to deep purple so deep it was black. And on each branch the clusters were different. Some had huge clusters of the tiniest grapes, some had small clusters of huge grapes. As HE continued to harvest I would get to taste each kind. Each was unique and wondrous. For a moment we paused as we watched the SUN begin to set. The sunset over the waters was beyond words. It did not seem like we were in any hurry. When we stood HE turned to me and said, "CHILD, THERE CAN BE NO FURTHER WORK WHEN THE DARKNESS COMES, AND IT WILL BE DARK SOON. THERE ARE SOME THINGS I WANT TO SHOW YOU.'' With those words we returned farther down the vine. We came to the place where there was a huge abundance of leaves. As HE moved the leaves I saw there was no grapes. "LOOK", HE said, and I saw the branch. It looked the same as those freshly grafted. "THERE ARE THOSE THAT WILL NOT GROW WITH THE VINE. THEY PRODUCE LEAVES TO COVER THEMSELVES, BUT THERE ARE NO GRAPES.'' And in one swift movement the branch was removed and the VINE left bare. The branch and all it's leaves were bound for the fire. Later we came to a branch were the leaves were green, but grapes littered the ground. None of which were close to being ripe. The branch and leaves again looked good but the bunches were feeble and could not hold the young grapes. This branch too was removed. Next we came to a branch and HE showed me the grapes. They were not ripe, but a mold or fungus was covering them and they gave off a foul smell. This branch too was removed. Then we came to a funny looking bunch of leaves. Their shape and color were ''wrong'' and the grapes were misshapen. I do not know why but I reached for a grape as I had done before at other branches and THE FATHER caught my hand. With profound gentleness HE lifted me in one arm and whispered. "THIS IS ONE GRAPE I DO NOT WANT YOU TO EAT." As HE placed me back on my feet HE moved the leaves and exposed the branch. It looked dead. "YES, CHILD IT IS DEAD, THE SPIRIT THAT IT PULLS LIFE FROM IS NOT FROM ME AND NOT THROUGH THE VINE. IT IS NOT OF ME." Again, but with force, HE pulled it off the VINE, and there was no mark on the VINE from where it had been. It too HE tied up for burning but would not allow me to even touch it. Now the SUN had completely set and we stood in twilight. Every branch had been pruned or removed. As we walked to the entrance of the VINEYARD HE stood and lifted the basket into the air, declaring into the heavens.... "HERE IS THE FRUIT OF MY VINE! IT HAS COME TO IT'S FULLNESS AND I REJOICE IN THE WORK OF MY HANDS. IS THERE ANYTHING LIKE MY VINE! IS THERE ANYTHING SWEETER THAN THE FRUIT OF MY VINE AND MY SPIRIT? COME AND REJOICE WITH ME. ENTER MY HOUSE AND TAKE YOUR REST". Now that is what I experienced and wrote then. It had been a long time since I had gone back to read what I had written. Why, because it was the first time I walked with HIM. Twice now it was in the Vineyard. As I read this and typed it, I wanted to change ''THE FATHER'' to ABBA....but I could not. When HE first took me on a walk I did not yet know HIM as ABBA. But it was this first walk that began to unfold the fullness of the REVELATION of my ABBA in my life. After the FIFTH THUNDER I was given a short WORD where all of this Vision was reflected in 6 or 7 short lines. There are too many people who were grafted into the VINE that have no intent to bring JOY to ABBA because they have born no fruit. There are those who bore fruit, and chose to stop. Then there are those that cast there fruit off, or poison all who touch them. So they are being cut off and left to be burned in due season. Some ABBA pruned back radically to allow them to grow in HIS VINE AND HIS SPIRIT. That is what was occurring back when we met to pray. We were pruned and some of us were grafted elsewhere to bear fruit in due season. Now that pruned branch, and many others like it will be checked and judged according to the fruit. Will ABBA REJOICE....or REMOVE FOR BURNING?

BEHOLD MY LILY OF THE VALLEYS, ROBED IN ROYAL PURPLE, CLOTHED IN THE COLORS OF SOVEREIGNTY.
BEHOLD MY BELOVED IN WHOM I TAKE GREAT DELIGHT.MY BELOVED IS LIKE A LILY AMONG THE THORNS.A ROSE AMIDST THE BRIERS. IT IS NOW TIME TO COME FORTH. COME FORTH OUT OF THE WEEDS. TO BE SEPARATED FROM THE TARES THAT HAVE SURROUNDED YOU SO LONG.
BEHOLD MY BELOVED, THE ONE IN WHOM I TAKE GREAT DELIGHT IN. BEHOLD THE ONE IN WHOM I AM MOST PLEASED. BEHOLD MY BRIDE.
AMONG ALL WHO HAVE HEARD THE GREAT CALL THERE IS A MERE FEW WHO HAVE COME FORWARD. IT IS THESE WHO HAVE SEPARATED THEMSELVES THAT I DO PROCLAIM MY CHOSEN.
FOR I HAVE PAID THE PRICE FOR MY BRIDE. GENTLY I HAVE COURTED YOU, ENTICING YOU FROM THE PLACE OF DARKNESS. CONTINUOUSLY URGING YOU TO LEAVE BEHIND THAT WHICH WOULD HARM YOU, ENSLAVE YOU, DESTROY YOU.
AND NOW I AM ABOUT TO COME FOR MY BRIDE. THE ONE WHOM I HAVE BOUGHT WITH MY BLOOD. THE ONE WHOM I HAVE WRAPPED IN THE GARMENTS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND CROWNED HER WITH MY GLORY FOR ALL TO SEE.
LOOK UPON ALL THE LILIES IN MY FIELDS. LIKE THE VERY STARS IN THE FIRMAMENT THEY STAND OUT AMONGST THE COLORLESS. THE LIFELESS. LIKE SOLOMON IN ALL HIS GLORY, THE WORLD WILL BE ASTOUNDED, AMAZED, AND PERPLEXED. THE LOST AND LIFELESS WILL MARVEL FOR MY RIGHTIOUSNESS AND GLORY NEVER FADES. NEVER CHANGES. NEVER DIES.
BEHOLD MY LILY, MY BELOVED. THE TIME IS NOW AT HAND. COME AWAY AND PLACE THE VEIL OVER YOU. NOT A SACK THAT COVERS THE GLORY THAT YOU REFLECT. BUT THE VEIL THAT PROCLAIMS I AM NOT MY OWN. THE VEIL THAT PROCLAIMS THAT YOU HAVE BEEN BOUGHT WITH A PRICE. THE VEIL THAT TELLS ALL WHO SEE IT THAT HERE IS ONE WHO AWAITS THE BRIDEGROOM. SO PUT ON THE VEIL OF HOLINESS, THE VEIL OF PURITY, THE VEIL OF INTIMACY.
OH MY BELOVED, FOR SO LONG I HAVE WAITED TO TAKE YOU AWAY WITH ME. TO PRESENT YOU TO MY FATHER WHO TAKES SINGULAR DELIGHT IN EACH OF YOU AS HIS CHILD, AS MY BRIDE. FOR YOU WERE HIS AND HE GAVE YOU TO ME SO THAT I MAY BRING YOU TO HIM. TO THE PLACE IN HIS HOUSE THAT I HAVE PREPARED FOR YOU. THE BANQUET IS READY AND NOW MY PRECIOUS ONE IT IS TIME TO FILL THE BANQUET HALL SO THAT NO SEAT WILL BE LEFT EMPTY.
IF ANYONE ASKS YOU WHY YOU SMILE, SAY THAT THERE IS ONE WHO HAS FOUND HIS DELIGHT IN YOU AND IS GREATLY PLEASED.
IF ANYONE ASKS WHY DO YOU SING, SAY THAT THERE IS ONE WHO SINGS HIS LOVE TO YOU CONTINUOUSLY.
IF ANYONE ASKS WHY THAT YOU DANCE, SAY THAT THERE IS ONE WHO IS YOUR SONG AND YOUR STRENGTH WHO GUIDES YOUR STEPS.
IF ANYONE ASKS WHY YOU REJOICE WITH LAUGHTER, SAY THAT THERE IS ONE WHO IS YEARNING TO CARRY YOU AWAY.
IF ANYONE ASKS WHY YOU SHINE, SAY THAT THERE IS ONE WHO SMILES UPON YOU AND YOU MERELY REFLECT HIS GLORY.
BUT WHEN THEY ASK WHO THIS ONE IS THAT YOU HAVE WAITED SO LONG FOR, WHAT IS YOUR ANSWER?
THINK WELL MY DARLING, FOR THIS IS WHY YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED. BEEN CHOSEN. BEEN BETROTHED!
OH MY BELOVED YOU HAVE STOLEN MY HEART, MY SISTER, MY BRIDE. YOU HAVE STOLEN MY HEART. IF YOU COULD BUT SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL YOU ARE. HOW DELIGHTFUL AND PLEASING YOU ARE IN MY EYES.
WHAT IS YOUR ANSWER BELOVED? WHAT IS THE ANSWER THAT THE WORLD SEEKS TO KNOW, BUT WILL NOT RECEIVE? FOR WHAT YOU SAY WILL NOT BE WHAT THEY WILL SEE.
SHALL YOU NOT SAY , "MY LOVER IS THE ONE IN WHOM I HAVE FOUND FAVOR. IT IS HE WHO PAID MY BRIDAL PRICE AND REDEEMED ME BY HIS BLOOD. HE WHO RESCUED ME FROM THE PIT AND HAS PREPARED A PLACE FOR ME IN HIS FATHER'S HOUSE. HE CLEANSED ME FROM MY STAINS. HE SAVED ME FROM THE CURSE.
HE HAS DRESSED ME IN GARMENTS WHITE, CLEAN, AND PURE. IN HIS LOVE I AM HEALED. IN HIS LOVE I AM SET FREE. IN HIS LOVE I AM REFRESHED. IN HIS LOVE I HAVE PEACE. IN HIM, I AM.''
Bob Neumann....5/9/99
"ONLY ONE LORD, ONLY ONE GOD. ONLY THE BROKEN HEARTED, ONLY THE CRUSHED IN SPIRIT, ONLY THOSE WHOSE HEARTS ARE TENDER WILL I POUR INTO THIS DAY.
NO MORE DISTRACTIONS, NO MORE AGENDAS, NO MORE EXCUSES, NO MORE LITTLE GODS WILL I TOLERATE THIS DAY.
ARE YOU TIRED OF BEING BARREN? ARE YOU TIRED OF BEING SHAMED? ARE YOU TIRED OF BEING THIRST? ARE YOU TIRED OF BEING MOCKED? WILL YOU SING THE SONG OF HANNAH THIS DAY?
WILL YOU NOW SWALLOW YOUR PRIDE? WILL YOU IGNORE THE COMMENTS OF MAN? WILL YOU COME NOW TO MY TABERNACLE? WILL YOU PUT ALL YOUR TRUST IN ME? WILL YOU GIVE ALL TO ME THIS DAY?
COME TO ME LIKE POOR BROKEN HANNAH. COME TO ME AND CALL UPON MY NAME. POUR OUT YOUR FEAR AND YOUR PAIN. HOLD BACK NOT THE TEARS AND THE SHAME. FOR A NEW HEART I GIVE YOU THIS DAY.
HANNAH ASKED FOR WHAT I DESIRED TO GIVE. HANNAH NEEDED WHAT ONLY I COULD GIVE. FOR WHEN HANNAH VOWED TO GIVE BACK HER HEARTS DESIRE IN SERVICE ONLY TO ME HER MIRACLE WAS SEALED THAT DAY.
TO ALL WHO ARE DRY AND CALLED BARREN TO ALL WHO FEEL ABANDONED AND CURSED FORGET NOT THE TENDERNESS OF HANNAH SEEK ME WITH ALL OF YOUR HEART AND STRENGTH AND YOU WILL
FIND ME THIS DAY.

Dearest Daughter of ZION,
Jeremiah 14:14-19
14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
15 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.
16 And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Jerusalem because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.
17 Therefore thou shalt say this word unto them; Let mine eyes run down with tears night and day, and let them not cease: for the virgin daughter of my people is broken with a great breach, with a very grievous blow.
18 If I go forth into the field, then behold the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, then behold them that are sick with famine! yea, both the prophet and the priest go about into a land that they know not.
19 Hast thou utterly rejected Judah? hath thy soul loathed Zion? why hast thou smitten us, and there is no healing for us? we looked for peace, and there is no good; and for the time of healing, and behold trouble!
(KJV)
OH DAUGHTER OF ZION, HOW OFTEN HAVE YOU BEEN BATTERED AND BRUISED FOR MY NAME SAKE! YET YOU TURN YOUR OTHER CHEEK TO YOUR BRETHERN TO RECEIVE A SECOND BLOW DESIRING TO FIND PEACE AND TO RECONCILE. YET IS IT A BROTHER THAT YOU TURN TO? IS IT A SISTER THAT RENDS YOU AND THEN ACCUSES YOU OF OFFENSE. ARE THESE WOLVES OF ME, FROM ME....OR ARE THEY OF THEIR FATHER THE EVIL ONE?
THIS IS A TIME OF DECEPTION FOR THE DARKNESS IS INDEED GREAT AND MANY WHO SHOULD HAVE SOUGHT MY FACE ONLY SOUGHT THEIR OWN GAIN. LET MY CHILDREN COME UNTO ME AND IN MY REST THEY SHALL HAVE PEACE. BUT MY PEACE IS NOT IN THIS WORLD, CHILDREN, BUT IN THE TABERNACLES PREPARED FOR MY HABITATION.
PLAGUE, FAMINE, DARKNESS ARE IN THE LAND NOW. SOON THE SWORD WILL FALL IN THE LAND FOR TOO MANY STILL DWELL CARELESSLY.
Lamentations 2:13-17
13 What thing shall I take to witness for thee? what thing shall I liken to thee, O daughter of Jerusalem? What shall I equal to thee, that I may comfort thee, O virgin daughter of Zion? for thy breach is great like the sea: who can heal thee?
14 Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.
15 All that pass by clap their hands at thee; they hiss and wag their head at the daughter of Jerusalem, saying, Is this the city that men call The perfection of beauty, The joy of the whole earth?
16 All thine enemies have opened their mouth against thee: they hiss and gnash the teeth: they say, We have swallowed her up: certainly this is the day that we looked for; we have found, we have seen it.
17 The LORD hath done that which he had devised; he hath fulfilled his word that he had commanded in the days of old: he hath thrown down, and hath not pitied: and he hath caused thine enemy to rejoice over thee, he hath set up the horn of thine adversaries. (KJV)
PROPHETS SAY THEY SPEAK FOR ME, YET THEIR WORDS ARE NOT MINE WHILE THEIR HEARTS PLOT AGAINST MY LITTLEST ONES. ALL YOUR ADVERSARIES STRIKE AT YOU FOR THEY HATE ME. YET THEY CAN ONLY STRIKE VAINLY FOR I AM WITH YOU AND MY GRACE IS STILL SUFFICENT. YOUR TEARS I DO NOT CONDEMN, YOUR FEARS I DO NOT RIDICULE FOR I AM STILL YOUR FATHER. THIS DOES NOT CHANGE REGUARDLESS OF YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES.
I SEND MY WORD THROUGH THOSE WHO SERVE ME. THOSE WHO STAND ON TITLES ARE NOT OF ME. THOSE THAT CLAIM MINISTRY OVER THEIR SERVICE ARE NOT OF ME. THOSE THAT CRY PEACE AND SAFETY ARE NOT OF ME. IF MY HOLY SPIRIT DOES NOT BEAR WITNESS IN YOUR BEING, THESE ARE FALSE PROPHETS WHO HAVE NOTHING OF ME TO IMPART TO YOU.
Matthew 7:15-22
15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16 Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? (KJV)
AND WHAT CHILDREN SHALL I ANSWER TO THESE I HAVE NEVER KNOWN? DO YOU NOT TASTE OF ME WHEN THE FRUIT IS GOOD. BITE INTO THE FRUIT THAT IS PLACED BEFORE YOU. EAT THAT WHICH IS SWEET AND TART. EAT THAT WHICH FILLS AND NOURISHES. VOMIT FROM THE MIDST OF YOU THE BITTER AND THE TASTELESS, THE FOUL AND THE FILTHY. ALIGN NOT WITH THOSE WHO HAVE NOT MY TASTE.
Matthew 24:8-27
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16 Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains:
17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day:
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. (KJV)
SO IT HAS BEGUN CHILDREN. THE ENEMY SEEKS TO DESTROY THE FOOLISH, THE UNWARY, THE UNDESCERNING. TO DESTROY YOU REQUIRES THAT YOU BE DECEIVED. IN THAT DECEPTION YOU WILL GIVE OFFENSE AND BE OFFENDED. TO BE DECEIVED YOU MUST SUBMIT TO THE FALSE AUTHORITY OF THE FALSE PROPHETS THAT NOW ASSAIL YOU FROM ALL SIDES. SO HARKEN TO MY VOICE AND CLOSE YOUR EARS TO THOSE WHO COME TO DEVOUR AND DESTROY.
Mark 13:20-23
20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.
21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:
22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. (KJV)
SEDUCTIONS OF ALL SORTS WILL COME FOR THE UNGODLY WHO WILL COME TO TICKLE THE EARS AND STROKE EGOS. I WARN YOU AND YOU MUST ACCEPT THE ACCOUNTABILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS. KEEP YOUR HEARTS TENDER AND YOUR EYES FOCUSED ON ME.
Luke 6:20-26
20 And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God.
21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.
23 Rejoice ye in that day, and leap for joy: for, behold, your reward is great in heaven: for in the like manner did their fathers unto the prophets.
24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.
25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
26 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! For so did their fathers to the false prophets. (KJV)
REJOICE CHILDREN FOR THE TIME OF YOUR MATURITY HAS NOW COME. THE FIRE OF TRIBULATION THAT WILL CONSUME THIS WORLD WILL MERELY REFINE YOU, IT WILL NOT DESTROY YOU. I AM A CONSMING FIRE. I WILL CONSUME YOU, DIGEST YOU AS YOU BECOME BONE OF MY BONE AND FLESH OF MY FLESH. REJOICE DAUGHTER OF ZION, REJOICE!
2 Peter 2:1-2
1 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
2 And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.
(KJV)
1 John 4:1-9
1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world.
5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them.
6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. (KJV)
DAUGHTERS OF ZION HAVE I NOT GIVEN YOU THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH? THROUGH YOU I SHALL SEPERATE THE WHEAT AND THE TARES. BUT THEN I SHALL ALSO SEPERATE THE WHEAT AND THE CHAFF. WHO AMONG YOU HAVE TAUGHT THE TWO IMAGES TOGETHER? WHERE ARE YOUR TEACHERS AND PROPHETS WHO WILL SPEAK THE FULL COUNCIL I DESIRE FOR YOU? MOST CERTAINLY YOU WILL DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THE WORLD AND MY FAMILY. EASILY WILL YOU SEE THE SERVANTS THAT I SEND TO MINISTER TO YOU AND THE HIRELINGS WHO WORK FOR WAGES.
PEACE BE TO YOU AS YOU FIND YOUR REST IN ME.

6, 1999:
This time of conflict and trial is for but a short season. The sifting concludes and the separation is completed. Enjoy My Sabbath and My peace. I am the Lord of the Sabbath and the Prince of Peace. I AM your victory and your song. As I am the Lamb and the Lion, let Me be to you comfort and strength. Come into My rest. Come into the place I have prepared for you, all who labor for My gain. I am the rewarder of all who seek Me. I am the recompense for all who are poured out in My name. Be one; be complete, for as I and My Father have always been one, so shall you, My beloved, be one with Me. For you are bone of My bone and flesh of My flesh. I proclaim you as Mine, bought with a price. Esteemed from among all the daughters of the earth are you, daughter of Zion. The daughters of kings shall minister to you. The hosts of heaven await your coming. All creation desires to see you as I have always seen you. Fear not, My beloved. I have not forgotten you. I have not forsaken you. In My Father's time it is all complete. Now quickly prepare yourself and watch for Me. I come when the world least expects. I come for My beloved when no one looks. I come as I promised...like a thief in the night. Rejoice in My love for you, daughter of Zion. Listen to My song in the night. I will dry your tears and fill your heart with laughter. Be still, My beloved, be still and watch. Watch for Me.
