CALLED FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS
Positioned Right To Hear
You need to be positioned right to hear what the Lord is speaking to you. There has been much disarray in the circumstances around you that have prevented you from hearing clearly from the Lord. Divine positioning is everything. Take time to be repositioned and let your heart have correct posture before the Lord. Humility in all things is the key. Learn to bend for you will not break. Yield in your situation and continue to bend and I will honor it. Do not be hardhearted or stiff necked but go with the flow of My Spirit and I will bless you, says the Lord.
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up. James 4:10

Mary Lindow “ DIFFERENT NATURES TRAVEL IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS ”
“ DIFFERENT NATURES TRAVEL IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS ”
by Mary Lindow
I would like to share with you…
… A few true and weird warnings that are out there!
A warning on an air conditioner – Avoid dropping air conditioners out of windows.
A warning on a blow dryer - Do not use while sleeping.
A warning on a Rowenta Iron – Never iron clothes on the body.
A warning on a vacuum cleaner – 1. Do not use to pick up gasoline or flammable liquids.
2. Do not use to pick up anything that is currently burning.
Here is a warning sign that reads – Ignore this sign.
Here is an obvious warning sign from Durango, Colorado – Warning: Do not hit this sign.
Here is a warning sign in South Carolina – Caution water on road during rain.
A chilling warning from Sony Trinitron – Caution: risk of electrical shock. Do not open.
I could go on-and-on with these warnings that are obvious, ridiculous, and yet, how many people feel that the warning is not for them? Many do and that is why there are so many warnings out there, so the company is not legally responsible when people do a stupid thing with their product!
In II Corinthians chapter 6 Paul opens his heart to the Corinthians, he shows his love for them, and he holds nothing back. And yet, they refuse to heed or listen to Paul’s warnings. They may not have liked the first letter they received from Paul that was full of correction and rebuke for their sin, but it was also sent in love. So, now they can’t get beyond it and Paul’s point is that they refuse to be open because of the limits they have made.
Also, the people they were hanging out with may have influenced them, and so Paul now moves into this very conflict-ridden and often disregarded portion of Scripture.
As I read through these verses I see serious thing that we need to listen to, and that we need to heed. My prayer and hope is that that we would not only understand these things, but we would then apply these things to our lives.
COME OUT FROM AMONG THEM!
II CORINTHIANS 6:14-16b “Do not be joined to unbelievers. What do right and wrong have in common? Can light and darkness be friends? How can Christ and Satan agree? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? We are the temple of the living God. God has said, "I will live with them. I will walk among them. I will be their God. And they will be my people."—(Leviticus 26:12; Jeremiah 32:38; Ezekiel 37:27)
Please know this has nothing to do with the worth of a person, the significance of a person, that one person is better than the other person. Paul is speaking of the nature of each person. Think about it, you would not put an ox and a donkey together with the same yoke, they have different natures, they would go in different directions, and it would be a mess.
HOW DOES THIS PLAY OUT IN OUR DAILY LIVES?
If you are dating an unsaved person you need to stop for you are not to marry, you are not to even date an unsaved person, someone who does not know the Lord Jesus Christ. Why is that? Isn’t that harsh? Isn’t there something called “missionary dating” where you date an unsaved person hoping to lead them to the Lord? I don’t know where that came from but it is not from the Word of God!
Again, we miss the point if you think these things are okay. You will be unequally yoked together and you will be going in different directions. And let me say this, chances are you are not going to affect them, but they will affect you and your relationship with the Lord.
Paul lays it all out for us as he puts side by side, the two natures. How can you have fellowship with a lack of control when your nature is honesty? You can’t! How can light and darkness feel at one with each other? They can’t because light and darkness don’t mix! And if Christ is in you how can you be in agreement with the Devil? You can’t!
We need to understand that this does not just apply to marriage, it applies to business partnerships, close relationships, sharing an apartment or home together and-so-on. You may think you will influence them but the reality is, they will influence you and bring you down. Paul tells us in I Corinthians 15:33, the following.
DO NOT BE TAKEN IN!
EVIL COMPANIONSHIP CORRUPTS GOOD EVERYDAY LIFE.
Or as The Amplified Bible puts it, “Do not be so deceived and misled! Evil companionships (communion, associations) corrupt and deprave good manners and morals and character.”
I know that some people still doubt that, and think you they are going to influence them, but most of the time, that is not the case, it is the other way around. Let me show you what I mean with this story:
H. A. Ironside, a bible scholar, tells of some boys who caught two chirping baby songbird finches. They decided to teach these birds to sing by placing them in a small cage and hanging it next to the cage of a pet canary. The canary, of course, sang beautifully, so the boys thought if the songbird finches were close to it they too would become good songbirds. Several weeks went by with no apparent results. Then one day the youngsters were startled by a strange sound coming from the canary’s cage. “Listen,” said one of them, “the canary is cheeping like a song bird finch.”
DANGER LIES AHEAD FOR THE CHRISTIAN…
…Who fellowships too often with irreverent people in the world. He will become like them. But worse than that, he will experience the disfavor of the Heavenly Father, whose will is that His children withdraw themselves from sin and evil.
The devil would have people believe that the life of sin is a very exciting life. It is a very exhilarating life. Yet the fact of the matter is - sin becomes a very boring and a very monotonous experience.
CELEBRITIES IN AMERICA AND THEIR LIFESTYLES
I was reading an article about the celebrities in America and their lifestyles. I saw that the average time of death of celebrities is 52.If they are going to live much they better live in a hurry because at age 52 that's when most of them die. The fast lane, very, very soon, becomes a rut. A lot of people who think they are living it up in sin are really not living.
If you really want to live and if you really want to have an exciting life, give your life to Jesus. There's never a dull moment when you know the Lord and when you live for the Lord. That's one of the lies of Satan - that sin is exciting and ooooh sooooo fulfilling!
OVER AND OVER AGAIN WE READ THIS LINE IN THE OLD TESTAMENT
"The Children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord." It seems as long as Israel could have some kind of outward restraint on them they would be fine. If they would have a spiritual leader, something on the outside they could hold things together, but the moment the outward restraints were gone they would go right back into sin and there would be another lapse into idolatry.
A lot of people are like that. Some Christians are like that. As long as they have the positive peer pressure of a fellowship of Christians around them they do okay. As long as they have some spiritual leader who is right there to stay on top of them and help them do right they do okay? But when the restraints are removed and all of those things are gone, if you aren't growing, if you are not maturing on the inside, then you aren't going to continue to live for the Lord.
WHERE ARE YOU IN THE MATURING PROCESS?
I would encourage you to get the measuring stick out and see where you are. Look to the Lord and ask Him to uncover any areas in your life where He doesn’t have complete and total influence. Like Paul, do away with childish things, and continue to grow in Christ. May each of us ”grow up in all aspects into Him who is the head, even Christ.”
As I close this message I would like to take time to share with you, a few lingering "prophetic whispers" that the Lord has spoken clearly to me.
“Each day, upon waking, where does you hear and mind wander to?
Is it the plans and lists of things you must accomplish for the day? Is it the meal you are about to eat? Is it worry and the bracing yourself for another grinding day of dealing with the pressures of life?
Return to those early awakening moments where you and I share in the dialog of my plans for you. Each day you have to live and to give, you have been given the opportunity to impact someone and to do a kindness or act of training for another. Where has your thankful heart wandered? Without it, evidence of bitterness and drudgery will manifest and sour even the brightest flower of hope.
Return to the heart of the issue and clean away the rusty decay of treadmill thinking. Each day can be a fresh adventure into Kingdom purpose or, a continual repeating of dreary existence.
Choose ever so wisely.”
“Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe.” ~ Hebrews 12:28
“When God prunes us, the result will be greater growth and sweeter fruit.”
“Pruning usually takes place when God uses situations, people, and circumstances to help mature us in our Christian disposition, attitude, and temperament.”
“The way we respond when we are pruned reveals our true level of spiritual maturity.”

God wants you to know that when your emotions get the better of you He is there just waiting for you to call on His name. When you are anxious, trust that He is bigger than all anxiety and will comfort your soul.

Let My People Go
Let My People Go
The children of Israel battled much under the hand of Pharaoh but the Lord delivered them out of Egypt. Divine intervention set them free. Pharaoh was defeated but that same spirit that persecuted the Israelites then is alive and well today and seeking to again rise up for revenge. God is wanting to set the captives free. He has also called His bride to come out of Egypt and walk in the freedom He so dearly paid the price for. He has unlocked the prison doors and man needs to walk through them.
We see much violence in Egypt right now and the outcome could have grave consequences on the state of Israel, the Jewish people and the rest of the world. Yes, Pharaoh still rules in Egypt and other nations of the earth today. Out of this we may well see an even stronger task master. God has a perfect plan for His people. The Lord keep Moses, as a baby in the bulrushes and even allow him to be raised by Pharaohs daughter and so we know that the Lord can most assuredly keep His hand on His people. Later the Lord also brought the child Jesus out of Egypt and into the promised land. His plan of deliverance for His people is perfect and never too late.
Israel still needs deliverance from the same spirit of Pharaoh that fought them thousands of years ago and there will be a great battle first. Their deliverance will come and we must keep our eyes the author and finisher of our faith. The Lord Jesus Christ is the only true deliverer and will return and destroy the enemy with the brightness of His coming.
Let us watch, pray and stand with Israel in this most difficult time for as His bride we are engrafted into the vine. Jesus is returning for the one new man and our eyes need to be, on Him.
And the LORD said unto Moses, Pharaoh's heart [is] hardened, he refuseth to let the people go. Exodus 7:14

God Is Waiting On You!
CALLED FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS
God Is Waiting On You!
I see the hand of God, waiting on His people to pray. I see the hand of God staid and unable to move, until His children pray. God's hand is moved by intercession. The hand of the Lord can do nothing until we pray and angels are dispatched to their needed destination. We ask the Lord to release His angels that they be dispatched to the nations of the earth. We cry out to the Lord and He hears and answers prayer. The Lord is faithful and will do nothing without revealing it first to His servants the prophets.
Be on the wall and in your pray closet when called. Hear the voice of the Spirit calling you into a place of prayer. A quiet place, secluded from all the cares of this world. Come into the prayer closet you servants of the Lord, come into your prayer closet and seek My face. I am waiting on your intercession to do many great and mighty works, so come into your prayer closet and pray. I am waiting on you, says the Lord.
18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— 19 and for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, 20 for which I am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak. Eph. 6:18-20 (NKJV)

Christ To The Nations
CALLED FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS
Christ To The Nations
This morning I emailed to one precious woman of God whose name meant follower of Christ. It touched my heart deeply that the Lord had placed a precious, prophetic woman of God in this nation of the earth. I had left her a note about my living in a certain European country as a child and she shared that she was born in that city. Afterwards I stood in my kitchen. God began to stir my heart and I prayed for that city, and the one she lived in and asked the Lord to raise up prophetic people and bring in souls from the nations of the earth.
God is looking at the nations of the earth. His will is that they will become followers of Christ. There are many hearts in the nations of the earth that are empty and searching and the Lord is drawing them in their discontentment. We need to pray for these youth that they will come in. Lights are throughout the nations of the earth and many are hidden, but soon they will be as Jesus spoke of, lights on a hill that cannot be hid. Each one will burn brightly and will bring many in. It is Christ in us that will bring men to himself, for except the Spirit of God draw a man He cannot come.
God is wanting the fruit of the earth to come forth in its season. He is speaking clearly that the youth need to be prayed for and that we need to stand by them and see that they come into the Kingdom. These tender plants will need to be nurtured, fed, and brought to maturity. Come forth, come forth, come forth fruit of the earth, the Lord is calling you to arise and call on His name. Call on Him and He will answer you. Call on Him and be a follower of Christ.
Men and women, boys and girls you who have been called, come into the Kingdom of God. Come before it is too late! Come that I might raise you up and use you to bring in the harvest in your nations. There is much to be harvested, much fruit already sitting on the vine and ready to be picked. Come forth and come quickly and you will be taught of the Lord much more quickly than the generations before you. For you are hungry to learn and are looking for a cause. I am the only one that will satisfy. Come to Me and I will satisfy the longing of your heart. Come to Me from the four corners of the earth, for the Father is calling such to serve Him. Come to Me and together we will bring in the sheaves.
The Fathers and Mothers in the nations of the earth need to be seeking Me for the harvest. Pray for those rebellious sons and daughters to come back home. They have been dedicated to Me and you have yet to see them come. Continue to pray and fast and seek My face and cry out for Me to save their souls. They will come in many are, broken and needing Me but they shall come as you pray and intercede. Never give up on a soul for I did not give up on you. Pray, intercede and believe me for I will give you natural, and spiritual sons and daughters and I will also give them sons and daughter’s.The battle is not yet over, fortify yourselves, seek Me for divine strategies, and bring them in. The nations are battling but this is making many so discontent that the will come. Pray for peace but be prepared to do battle for it, says the Lord.
to whom God would make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you the hope of glory: Colossians 1:27 Darby Translation

Arise, Prophet, Arise
Arise, Prophet, Arise
Know the faithfulness of the Lord in speaking into your spirit. Many are the lies of the enemy that have come against you for he has sought to destroy your faith but you have stood strong and resisted him. Do not doubt that which I have placed within you for in your time alone he has sought to whisper in your ear, falsehood. Did he not come to Jesus and ask Him a question? At a moment when His flesh was weak from fasting, did he not try and tempt Jesus. Then the Word was spoken and Jesus said it is written and after the third time of speaking the word, the enemy left Him for a season. Do you think you are any greater than your Master? You are not exempt from more tests of your faith. The enemy is a liar through and through and there is no truth in him.
Stand strong, in the power of My Holy Spirit for I am downloading much to you in this season. Know who you are in Me with new faith. Stand firmly planted in My Word for it is your life. You have much Word in you but with new zeal delve into My Word and study to show yourself approved. You have a teaching mantle in you prophet of God that has yet to come to its fullness. You have been called to combat the works of darkness and expose them. You have been called to set the captives free.
You know and understand the battle and have overcome and will yet be used by Me. I am moving in this time to bring refreshing to your battle weary body and would have you sit with Me continually. Times of refreshing are here. I would have you know prophet of mine that you are much loved by Me. I am your friend and consider you mine. Much has come against you and even spoken against you but you have stood strong in the past years and not wavered. Let Me rekindle our love in an even deeper way. My love for you is unconditional.
Allow Me to hold you in your disappointments, keep you safe in the storm and raise you up in your prophetic mantle as that victorious, conquering woman of God. Arise prophet of God arise, come higher, dig deeper and soar like the eagle you are called to be. That eagle that can see beyond the natural and discern the enemy at a distance. The discerning of spirits is being sharpened even more deeply and you know what spirit is operating when you see him working. You discern it in my body and discern it in the world.
Continue to sharpen your weapons of warfare for you have been called as a woman of peace but also as a battle axe and weapon of war. Take the sword of My spirit and cut through the works of the enemy. Even this day he has sought to discourage you but the thorn will not be removed but will be used as a reminder of all that you have been given is not without price and cost.
That which you have disliked will be turned for good and you will be reminded, of all that I have done in your life. Arise to your lives calling, arise. Rejoice prophet of God, rejoice, the day of the Lord is at hand even at the door. Do your first works, preach My Word without fear and do not receive the lie for you are perfect only in Me. You will be used to raise up those that have need of teaching. Feed them the food I give to you. Study for new nuggets of truth for My word is full of hidden treasure there for the asking. There is freedom at the foot of the cross for all and you must never stop preaching the word of the Lord for it is life.
Know the faithfulness of the Lord in speaking into your spirit. Many are the lies of the enemy that have come against you for he has sought to destroy your faith but you have stood strong and resisted him. Do not doubt that which I have placed within you for in your time alone he has sought to whisper in your ear, falsehood. Did he not come to Jesus and ask Him a question? At a moment when His flesh was weak from fasting, did he not try and tempt Jesus. Then the Word was spoken and Jesus said it is written and after the third time of speaking the word, the enemy left Him for a season. Do you think you are any greater than your Master?
