FROM THE ALMIGHTY – “WHERE ARE MY SONS?”
11.21.21
Where are My sons? Where are My sons?
And what are these sounds I hear? Laughter in the hallways and on the playgrounds of the world. Boys who should be men, filled with lusts for every way they can find to escape the responsibilities and duties to which they are called. And what is this I see?
Hiding in dark places, men buy and sell and use to feed the addictions in their souls that never find satisfaction – that only bring momentary gratification and leave them hungrier and more addicted than they were before.
From the brothels of the demons come the sounds of dying souls. From the stadiums and arenas, from the bars and from the boardrooms, I see men drunk with substance and with power. I see men who hide their shameful deeds of darkness with their backs turned to Me – full of guilt and self-condemnation for their sin and abandonment of their rightful places in My kingdom.
I hear them say, “Let the women labor for the kingdom and the family, for I am weak and cannot do it. I have not been taught. I have not learned. It is too much responsibility. I am afraid and weak and ill-equipped. I want to chase after the things of the world, where there is no responsibility or accountability. I want to feed on pleasure and satisfy my cravings.
I will ignore the call to repentance, for it will take from me all that pleases my flesh.” And I hear other voices that cry in the night, saying, “I am inadequate to the task. I am afraid I will fail. I will be exposed for my inadequacies and I will be a mockery among the people. What do I have to do with such things as wisdom or responsibility? I am a failure and will always be a failure.
I am worthless and a laughingstock to myself and to all who see me. I am weak and ineffective and I have no hope of being anything more than these things. And so I will sit down and give up. I will quit trying to be a man, for there is no hope for me.” Hear now the word of the Almighty this day. I am calling My sons from the pits of discouragement and rebellion.
I am calling My sons who are covered with the sins of negligence, addictions, abandonment and irresponsibility. I am calling my sons from the noise of the sports arenas and the smoke-filled bars, the back rooms and back alley drug deals. I am calling My sons who hide behind the women in the churches and homes.
I am calling My sons from the beds of the prostitutes and the boardrooms of the wicked. I am calling my sons from the drugs of depression and the abominable lifestyles and behaviors of the world. I am calling you to stand.
Stand in the congregations of the righteous, where you will be counted as righteous. Stand in your families. Repent of your ways of rebellion.
I will teach you how to be a man. I will strip away every false belief and set you free from every false doctrine you have believed about what it means to be a man. I will fill your bones with resolve stronger than iron and your heart with gold – purified and tried in the furnace of affliction. I will teach you how to be the man I have created you to be.
It will not be what you think. It will be hard work. It will be humility when you would be tempted to be proud. It will be courage when you prefer to escape. It will be patience and obedience. It will require more of you than you have ever given. And you will be richly satisfied.
For I have called you to be a man – to be My son – to lead with humility and to follow with strength.
Many of those who have been made to be men have misunderstood, thinking that humility is a sign of weakness. They err in their understanding.
Humility is strength.
Only in humility was My son able to go through His life on earth and complete the task for which He had been sent. Only with the strength of knowing He had been sent for a purpose far greater than the price of His own life was He able to follow the plan laid out for salvation.
Strength in Me looks like weakness to the world. Humility in Me looks like pride to the world. I will teach you how to be humble and strong. Satan has sought to confuse My sons and daughters – to divide and destroy the purposes of their design – to create competition between them in an effort to destroy the power that comes through their unity.
As each one functions in the gifts and talents they have been given and does not try to control the other, My purposes can be accomplished in them. Neither male nor female were created for the purpose of ruling over their counterparts. I have not created man or woman to control one another.
I have not created humanity to control humanity. I have created men and women to work and live in harmony with one another. I have created men and women to honor, obey, and glorify Me.
They cannot accomplish this if they do not walk and live as they were designed to do so from the beginning. I have not created you to continue to live in the fallen state of sin. I have called you to come out of the world, to stand as a man of the Almighty, to live accordingly and to bring all of yourself, your life, your decisions, your responsibilities, and your families to My throne for you to receive your instructions from Me.
I have called you to step out from behind the skirts of your wives and the aprons of your mothers, to dress yourselves spiritually and physically – in attitude and deed – as a man. I have called you to the battlefield to go to war against the demonic realm and the lusts of your own flesh, instead of playing on the playground of the enemy and his minions.
I have called you now out of the fear of failure. I did not make a mistake when I made you a man. It is time you stand in the reality of that call. Come out of adultery, fornication and promiscuity. Come out of drug addiction and alcoholism.
Come out of the beds of other men and of other men’s wives. Come out of prostitution and pornography.
Come out of hiding in the dark and walk in the light of Christ. Make a covenant with your eyes as Job did – do not look on a young woman to lust after her. Do not look on anyone or anything with lust in your eyes, on your mind or in your heart. I am calling My prodigal sons to come home.
I will not beg you to come. I stand here, in holiness and call you to come, and be holy. You must know that you have been created for more than a pigsty life.
You have been created to be one of My sons, chosen to walk beside Me as a man of GOD. Your war is not with Me. Your war is not even with the demons that hound and drive you to sin against yourself and against Me.
Your war is within your own self – within your soul and your own body. You have believed lies about who you are and who you have been created to be – and about the call on your life and the high value I placed on it.
You must choose to fight against your own selfish desires. You must choose to conquer the lusts of your flesh. You must choose to let go of the pride of life and the lust of your eyes. Your soul and flesh will destroy you if you do not make the choice I hold out to you today. Hold to Me. Take My hand. Get out of the filth of the world and come be washed in the blood of the Lamb. Your time is short. I have told you this before.
Do not continue to hide from Me. Remember what I said to Cain and know the same is true for you. I do not respect one man over another. All have sinned. All have fallen short, and all are welcome to repent – to give themselves over to Me – to live in and be accepted by Me. If you do well, you will be accepted.
Follow My Son and you will do well. Do not look at your past and think it is too late or that you cannot change and be forgiven. Those are lies from the enemy of your life. He will try to stop you from coming to Me, but he cannot stop you unless you choose to let him. And even then, you could not say that it was he who stopped you, but rather you yourself, who stopped you.
Do not use the broken life you had as your excuse, for I will not accept it. I have called you to be a man. I will lead you in the way you should go. Excuses for ongoing rebellion – no matter what those excuses are – are not and will not be acceptable. My people will be a holy people. My sons will be holy men of GOD, tried in the fire, willing to do and give all I require at their hands. My sons will be warriors for the Almighty – armed, equipped, bold, courageous, humble and faithful to Me and to those I entrust to their care. Rejoice for the rebuke, as it is because of My love that I rebuke you.
It is only My sons – however filthy they may be at the moment – who will hear, receive and obey the call to abandon self and all the world has to offer. It is only My sons who will stand as My men, My warriors and My heirs. Even so. Amen.
The Almighty Father and Mighty Man of War To The Spiritual Fathers… I am bringing my broken sons to some of you. Be careful that you always direct them to Me. In their broken-ness, there will be pride, anger, frustration and many other issues you will confront.
Seek Me for counsel with each one I bring. Remember patience. Do not compromise truth. Many of these will not be like those I have brought to you before. You must seek Me with each one and I will give you wisdom to know what to say and do. Many of these men have never known the love of a father. Love them well. Always remember to point them to Me.
=========================================================
FAITHFULNESS TO ME IS YOUR SALVATION 4.24.21
IT IS NOT A PRAYER YOU SAID. IT IS NOT WATER YOU WERE IMMERSED IN OR HAD SPRINKLED ON YOUR HEAD.
IT IS NOT YOUR DENOMINATION OR YOUR WEEKLY ATTENDANCE IN CHURCH MEETINGS, OR THE MONEY YOU GAVE IN THE PLATE AS IT PASSED BY YOUR PEW.
IT IS NOT THE NUMBER OF SCRIPTURES YOU CAN QUOTE OR THE NUMBER OF SOULS YOU BAPTIZE. IT IS NOT THE NUMBER OF GENERATIONS YOUR FAMILY HAS BEEN ATTENDING A CERTAIN CHURCH OR HOW LONG YOU HAVE SERVED ON THE MINISTRY TEAM.
IT IS NOT THAT DOCTOR OF THEOLOGY DEGREE HANGING ON YOUR WALL OR THE TITLE THAT YOU CLAIM IS YOURS AS A SO-CALLED MAN OR WOMAN OF GOD. IN REPENTANCE AND REST IS YOUR SALVATION. DID YOU THINK TO GO BACK TO THE WORLD AND YOUR LOVERS OF PLEASURE, IDOLATRY AND REBELLION, EXPECTING TO PLAY THE HARLOT AND ONLY OFFER LIP SERVICE TO ME AND OUR RELATIONSHIP?
WHAT KIND OF MARRIAGE THAT HAS ANY LASTING VALUE OR GENUINE WORTH IS MADE OF ADULTERY, UNREPENTANT ATTITUDES, AND WHOREDOMS? WORK OUT YOUR SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING. IF THERE IS NO HEAD IN THE MARRIAGE, IF THERE IS NO SUBMISSION, IF THERE IS NO FAITHFULNESS TO ME, THEN WE DO NOT HAVE A MARRIAGE.
REMEMBER GOMER. SHE CONTINUED TO BE AN ADULTEROUS WIFE. HER HEART WAS NOT FOR HER HUSBAND. IT WAS FOR HER OWN PLEASURE. HOSEA WAS SENT BY ME TO MARRY A WIFE OF WHOREDOM WHO GAVE BIRTH TO CHILDREN WHOSE NAMES MEANT ‘PUNISHMENT’, ‘NO MERCY’, AND ‘NOT MY PEOPLE’.
THE STORY OF HOSEA AND GOMER WAS A REFLECTION OF HOW MANY OF MY PEOPLE HAVE TREATED ME, THEIR GOD. I WAS NOT PLEASED WITH THE WHOREDOM OF MY PEOPLE THEN.
NEITHER AM I PLEASED WITH THE WHOREDOM OF MY PEOPLE TODAY. IF YOU WOULD ENTER THROUGH THE GATE TO COME TO ME AS ONE WHO DESIRES TO BE IN MY KINGDOM, YOU MUST TURN TO ME WITH FULL PURPOSE OF HEART.
YOU MUST LEAVE BEHIND YOUR LOVERS FROM THE PAST AND FROM TODAY. YOU CANNOT BRING THOSE IDOLS THROUGH THE GATE INTO THE MARRIAGE CHAMBER WITH ME.
I WILL NOT HAVE AN ADULTEROUS WIFE. I WILL NOT SHARE MY MARRIAGE BED OR MY KINGDOM WITH REBELLION. I WILL NOT OPEN MY ARMS TO SATAN, TO SELF-EXULTATION, TO BLASPHEMY, TO BE DEFILED BY DISOBEDIENCE AND A HEART THAT HAS NOT BEEN GIVEN OVER TO ME FREELY AND COMPLETELY.
I WILL NOT MARRY A BRIDE WHO HAS A ‘GOMER’ HEART. MY SON PAID FOR YOUR SINS. IT IS THE WAY I CHOSE IN ORDER FOR YOU TO ENTER MY KINGDOM.
BUT YOU MUST BE FAITHFUL TO WALK THROUGH THE NARROW GATE TO COME TO ME. AND YOU MUST NOT STOP THERE. NO MAN OR WOMAN COMES THROUGH TO ME ANY OTHER WAY. HE IS THE GATE BY WHICH YOU MUST ENTER. HE IS THE ONLY WAY.
PREPARE YOURSELF.
YOU MUST PUT ON THE WEDDING GARMENTS TO BE THE BRIDE.
YOU MUST MAKE YOURSELF READY.
THE BRIDE’S GARMENTS ARE WITHOUT SPOT OR WRINKLE.
YOU MUST BE MADE CLEAN BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB, AND YOU MUST KEEP YOUR GARMENTS CLEAN BY REFUSING TO ALLOW THE FILTH OF THE WORLD TO DEFILE YOU.
YOU MUST BE A WISE VIRGIN. THE BRIDE WILL MAKE HERSELF READY.
SHE WILL WORK OUT HER SALVATION WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING. SHE WILL HONOR HER BRIDEGROOM AND SUBMIT HERSELF TO HIS DESIRES.
SHE WILL NOT SEEK HER OWN PLEASURE, BUT INSTEAD SHE WILL FIND IT AS SHE SEEKS TO PLEASE HER BRIDEGROOM. AND HER HUSBAND WILL RISE UP AND CALL HER BLESSED.
REVELATION 19:7,8 Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready; 8 it was granted her to clothe herself with fine linen, bright and pure”— for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.
IF YOU ARE FAITHFUL, YOU WILL BE PERMITTED TO WEAR THE GARMENT MY SON BOUGHT FOR YOU.
IT IS CLEAN. IT IS HOLY.
IT IS NOT ABLE TO BE PURCHASED OR EARNED. IT IS FREELY GIVEN. BUT YOU MUST KEEP IT CLEAN AND UNDEFILED.
AND WHEN YOU BRUSH UP AGAINST THE FILTH OF THE WORLD BY THE REBELLIOUS LUSTS OF YOUR HEART, YOU MUST COME TO ME QUICKLY TO FORGIVE YOU AND TO BE CLEANSED ONCE AGAIN BY YOUR REPENTANCE, IN ORDER THAT YOUR WEDDING GARMENT IS NOT DEFILED WITH THE STAIN OF SIN.
YOUR FAITHFULNESS TO ME IS NOT THE GATE BY WHICH YOU ACQUIRE SALVATION. THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO BE SAVED – AND THAT GIFT IS GIVEN BECAUSE MY SON DIED FOR YOU. HE IS THE NARROW GATE THROUGH WHICH YOU ENTER…
BUT THE ROAD IS NARROW ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT GATE – SO NARROW THAT YOU CANNOT CARRY THE WORTHLESS THINGS OF THE WORLD WITH YOU. THEY WILL NOT FIT THROUGH THE GATE. YOU MUST LEAVE THEM ALL BEHIND.
I JUDGE YOUR HEART. I SEE WHAT IS GENUINE LOVE FOR ME AND WHAT IS THE HEART OF A ‘GOMER’ – ONE WHO SLEEPS WITH THE WORLD IN HER THOUGHTS AND IN HER HIDDEN DEEDS. I SEE HEARTS THAT ONLY TRY TO APPEASE ME, BUT DO NOT GIVE THEMSELVES FULLY OVER TO ME.
I SEE THE HEARTS OF THOSE WHO ONLY DO WHAT THEY BELIEVE TO BE NECESSARY IN ORDER TO ESCAPE THE FIRES OF HELL. THAT IS MANIPULATION, AND I WILL NOT BE MANIPULATED. WHEN I LOOK AT YOU, DO I SEE ONE WHO LOOKS LIKE MY SON?
DO I SEE ONE WHOSE LIFE IS GIVEN OVER TO ME? DO I SEE ONE WHO REFUSES INTIMACY WITH THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH AND THE EYES, WHO DOES NOT PURSUE THE PRIDE OF LIFE TO SATISFY EVERY CARNAL DESIRE? I AM HOLY.
I CANNOT TOLERATE THE LEAST DEGREE OF SIN. ARE YOU KEEPING YOURSELF CLEAN FOR ME? DO I SEE IN YOU NOW THE ONE I WANT TO SHARE MY MARRIAGE BEDCHAMBER WITH? OR MY KINGDOM WITH? ASK ME AND I WILL TELL YOU WHAT TO DO. COME AND SEEK ME.
CONTINUE TO SEEK ME DAILY AND I WILL DIRECT YOU. I WILL KEEP YOU ON THE NARROW PATH TO ME. I WILL ACCEPT YOU AS YOU REMAIN FAITHFUL TO ME. I WILL HONOR YOU AND CHERISH YOU AS MY BELOVED ONE, EVEN AS I HONOR AND CHERISH MY SON WHO STAYED ON THE NARROW PATH TO ME.
HE IS WAY-MAKER. HE MADE THE WAY FOR YOUR LIFE TO BE ACCEPTED BY ME. I AM PLEASED WITH HIS SACRIFICIAL LOVE FOR ME. AND I WILL BE PLEASED WITH YOUR LOVE AS YOU DO THE SAME.
SACRIFICE THE OTHER GODS WHO TRY TO STEAL YOU AWAY, INCLUDING YOUR SELFISH DESIRES. HONOR ME AS YOUR HEAD THROUGH OBEDIENCE, REFUSE ADULTERY WITH THE WORLD AND LOVE ME WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART, MIND AND STRENGTH. WORK OUT WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING THE SALVATION MY SON PAID FOR. DO NOT TAKE LIGHTLY THESE WORDS.
LIVE THE WAY HE LIVED – IN COMPLETE SUBMISSION TO ME EVERY DAY. I AM NOT TO BE TAKEN LIGHTLY. I AM SERIOUS ABOUT MY WORDS, MY COMMANDS AND MY RELATIONSHIP REQUIREMENTS FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO BE WITH ME.
(MATTHEW 7:21) Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
THOSE WORDS WERE SPOKEN BY MY SON, THE NARROW GATE, WHO OPENED THE WAY FOR YOU TO WALK THE NARROW PATH THAT LEADS TO ME.
YOUR FAITHFULNESS TO STAY ON THAT PATH – JUST AS HE STAYED ON THE PATH – WILL TAKE YOU TO THE ROOM HE PREPARED FOR YOU – TO THE MARRIAGE SUPPER OF THE LAMB – TO THE MARRIAGE CHAMBER UNDEFILED AND HOLY – TO THE OPEN ARMS OF YOUR TRUE KING AND TO THE LIFE I WOULD SHARE FAITHFULLY WITH YOU THROUGHOUT ETERNITY.
BE FAITHFUL TO THE ONE WHO IS CALLED FAITHFUL AND TRUE.
FAITHFULNESS IS YOUR SALVATION. LET THAT SAME FAITHFULNESS BE FOUND IN YOU. LOVE ME WITH YOUR WHOLE HEART. I LOVE YOU WITH MINE. FATHER
