Burn Brightly

May 3, 2024

Push back the darkness with the light of My presence. You are the light that I have called out of darkness. You have given your heart to Me and we are one. I am now calling you back into the darkness to shine My light for others caught in its grip. Lead them out, My chosen ones. This is the hour you have been prepared for. You know the desperation of the dark places. You have endured the pain, the loneliness, and the betrayal to sympathize with all who need a way out. You are a light. You are called to lead the way out of this present darkness. You have stayed faithful and kept your lamp burning with the oil of intimacy. Advance in victory.

Ahora los estoy llamando a regresar a la oscuridad para hacer brillar Mi luz para otros atrapados en sus garras. Sacalos fuera, Mis elegidos. Esta es la hora para la que has estado preparado. Conoces la desesperación de los lugares oscuros. Has soportado el dolor, la soledad y la traición para simpatizar con todos los que necesitan una salida. Eres una luz. Estás llamado a liderar el camino para salir de esta oscuridad presente. Te has mantenido fiel y has mantenido encendida tu lámpara con el aceite de la intimidad. Avance en la victoria.

The Sleeping Bride

November 20, 2023
I

will break the ties of the wicked over My people. They will no longer be under a strong delusion. They will be drawn out from among them—a people to be made ready for the wedding feast. The Bride has been sleeping for too long. She must wake up and get ready, for the Bridegroom is on His way. He will light the way home. Only the betrothed will go with Him. Cut ties with what desecrates. Disarm yourselves from corrupting influences and associate with the light-bearers, the truth-tellers, the secret place dwellers. Join the company of uncompromised warriors who have died to self, and found their purpose in God‘s bosom. Separate yourself from death and embrace the God of life. Seek Him while He may be found.

BIBLE VERSES TO STUDY

Can a virgin forget her ornaments, or a bride her attire? Yet my people have forgotten me days without number. ‭‭—Jeremiah‬ ‭2‬:‭32‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Do not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good morals.” ‭‭—1 Corinthians‬ ‭15‬:‭33‬ ‭NASB

Once your life was full of sin’s darkness, but now you have the very light of our Lord shining through you because of your union with him. Your mission is to live as children flooded with his revelation-light! And the supernatural fruits of his light will be seen in you—goodness, righteousness, and truth. Then you will learn to choose what is beautiful to our Lord. And don’t even associate with the servants of darkness because they have no fruit in them; instead, reveal truth to them. The very things they do in secret are too vile and filthy to even mention. Whatever the revelation-light exposes, it will also correct, and everything that reveals truth is light to the soul. This is why the Scripture says, “Arise, you sleeper! Rise up from your coffin and the Anointed One will shine his light into you!” ‭‭—Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬-‭14‬ ‭TPT‬‬

R

omperé las ataduras de los impíos sobre mi pueblo. Ya no estarán bajo un fuerte engaño. Serán sacados de entre ellos, un pueblo que será preparado para el banquete de bodas. La Novia lleva demasiado tiempo durmiendo. Ella debe despertar y prepararse por que el Novio esté en camino. Él iluminará el camino a casa. Sólo los prometidos irán con Él. Cortar lazos con lo que profana. Desarmaos de las influencias corruptoras y asociaos con los portadores de la luz, los que dicen la verdad, los habitantes del lugar secreto. Únase a la compañía de guerreros intransigentes que han muerto a sí mismos y han encontrado su propósito en el seno de Dios. Sepárate de la muerte y abraza al Dios de la vida. Búscalo mientras pueda ser encontrado.

¿Puede olvidarse una mujer de sus joyas y adornos de novia? Mi pueblo, sin embargo, hace mucho que se olvidó de mí. —Jeremías‬ ‭2‬:‭32‬ ‭DHH

No se dejen engañar. Como alguien dijo: Los malos compañeros echan a perder las buenas costumbres. —1 Corintios‬ ‭15‬:‭33‬ ‭DHH

Ustedes antes vivían en la oscuridad, pero ahora, por estar unidos al Señor, viven en la luz. Pórtense como quienes pertenecen a la luz, pues la luz produce toda una cosecha de bondad, rectitud y verdad. Examinen siempre qué es lo que agrada al Señor. No compartan la conducta estéril de los que son de la oscuridad; más bien sáquenla a la luz. Pues hasta vergüenza da hablar de lo que ellos hacen en secreto; pero cuando todas las cosas son puestas al descubierto por la luz, quedan en claro, porque todo lo que se deja poner en claro, participa de la luz. Por eso se dice: Despierta, tú que duermes; levántate de entre los muertos, y Cristo te alumbrará. —Efesios‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬-‭15‬ ‭DHH

Oil of Gladness

November 6, 2023
I

have the oil that you need to keep shining bright. Come to Me to buy the oil of gladness, the oil of communion with Me. The oil will keep you lit. The oil will keep you pure. Take from Me what you cannot buy from this world. This oil produces a sweet aroma, a fragrance of deep intimacy. Those who smell this aroma will know your master. They will know we are one. This oil will cost you everything. It will be the most precious commodity for living—more precious than milk and honey and wine. More precious than gold and silver. This oil will last for an eternity because it is produced in intimacy with Me and it will never run out. This oil is priceless yet it costs what you are willing to give—yourself. Give Me your heart and this oil will flow like a river of life.

Este aceite te costará todo. Será el bien más preciado para vivir—más precioso que la leche, la miel y el vino. Más precioso que el oro y la plata. Este aceite durará una eternidad porque se produce en la intimidad Conmigo y nunca se acabará. Este aceite no tiene precio, pero cuesta lo que estas dispuesto a dar: tu ser. Dame tu corazón y este aceite fluirá como un río de vida.

Purified Ones

October 31, 2023
Y

ou are My flower petal, fragile but beautiful. You are being purified because I need pure ones to speak forth My truth. You have been through the fire of affliction to know the fellowship of the sufferings of Christ, your Lord and Savior. Fear not, My precious daughter. You are not alone. My strong right hand has not abandoned you, for My fierce love for you will save you from your oppressors. My power will be showcased for all to see in your life. Stay humble, stay pure, stay close to My heart. I will redeem the time the enemy has stolen and I will hold you up like a candle burning bright to light the way forward for many.

“Your faith will be like gold that has been tested in a fire. And these trials will prove that your faith is worth much more than gold that can be destroyed. They will show that you will be given praise and honor and glory when Jesus Christ returns.” — 1 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭7‬ ‭CEV‬‬

"My passion is to be consumed with him and not cling to my own “righteousness” based in keeping the written Law. My only “righteousness” will be his, based on the faithfulness of Jesus Christ—the very righteousness that comes from God. And I continually long to know the wonders of Jesus and to experience the overflowing power of his resurrection working in me. I will be one with him in his sufferings and become like him in his death. Only then will I be able to experience complete oneness with him in his resurrection from the realm of death.” — Philippians‬ ‭3‬:‭9‬-‭11‬ ‭TPT‬

res Mi pétalo de flor, frágil pero hermosa. Estás siendo purificada porque necesito que los puros hablen Mi verdad. Has pasado por el fuego de la aflicción para conocer la comunión de los sufrimientos de Cristo, tu Señor y Salvador. No temas, mi preciosa hija. No estás solo. Mi fuerte diestra no te ha abandonado, porque Mi feroz amor por ti te salvará de tus opresores. Mi poder se mostrará para que todos lo vean en tu vida. Manténte humilde, mantente pura, quédate cerca de Mi corazón. Redimiré el tiempo que el enemigo ha robado y te sostendré como una vela encendida para iluminar el camino a seguir para muchos. Descansa en Mi amor por ti.

"Porque la fe de ustedes es como el oro: su calidad debe ser probada por medio del fuego. La fe que resiste la prueba vale mucho más que el oro, el cual se puede destruir. De manera que la fe de ustedes, al ser así probada, merecerá aprobación, gloria y honor cuando Jesucristo aparezca." - 1 Pedro 1:7

"Mi pasión es consumirme con él y no aferrarme a mi propia “justicia” basada en guardar la Ley escrita. Mi única “justicia” será la suya, basada en la fidelidad de Jesucristo, la misma justicia que viene de Dios. Y continuamente anhelo conocer las maravillas de Jesús y experimentar el poder desbordante de su resurrección obrando en mí. Seré uno con él en sus sufrimientos y seré como él en su muerte. Sólo entonces podré experimentar la completa unidad con él en su resurrección del reino de la muerte”. — Filipenses 3:9-11 TPT

ound the alarm. My people, wake up from your slumber. It is time to advance My kingdom. The days of sidelining have come to an end. I need hearts of warriors to dispel this present darkness with My light of truth. This is a war against darkness. Only My truth can penetrate its depths. Brave souls, who do not compromise, stand up. Stand up and shine. Dismantle lies by living the truth. Arm your selves with My words. Those are your weapons. The war is for the souls of men. That is the land that needs to be conquered. This world will one day pass away. But spirits are eternal. They must find their peace with Me. Light the way, My people. Light the way.

Son-rising

November 17, 2018

We are overwhelmingly aware of all sorts of things. Today’s technological advances have aided the delivery of despairing news from all around the world—tragedies, threats of war, and terrorism that attempt to consume us. It camps in our mind, affects our behaviors and influences our words. The darkness that surrounds us is thick. The darkness within, even thicker. It often feels like nothing can penetrate this oppression.

Yet, there is hope.

Matthew 2:1-2 says that at the time of Jesus’ birth in Bethlehem of Judea, wise men from the east saw Jesus’ star rising in the sky. There was a star rising but it wasn’t an earthly star. It was the bright and morning star.

The Son was rising.

These wise men were following ‘His’ star in the night sky. They were used to that. God spoke to them in a way they understood. These spiritual priests or advisors were also known as magi, experts in astronomy, astrology, and natural science. But on that grand day when Jesus was born, God led them to the most glorious Light the earth has ever known. And it wasn’t the star in the sky. They were led to Jesus Himself, the hope for a world caught in the throes of darkness.

Jesus is …

The star that ushers hope into our broken and desperate souls.

The star that reveals the authority of truth amidst the tyranny of confusion.

The star that heals with His presence as torment releases its grip.

The magi witnessed for themselves that the true Light of the world had come. The sun, the moon and the stars paled in comparison to the Light that dispels spiritual darkness. By nature, Jesus’ life brings hope, healing, and the revelation of truth.

When His Light comes, darkness must flee.

Darkness is hard at work being what it is. Darkness doesn’t understand how to be light. All it knows, lives and breathes is darkness—an oppressive darkness that keeps us blind and chained. But, take heart. Even if there is devastation and destruction all around you, the Son is rising with healing in His wings.

The Son is rising in the hearts of many seekers.

If you’ve been looking to the lesser lights of this world for counsel and comfort and still feel darkness nipping at your heels, all you have to do is allow the true Light to enter your heart. His Light will shine in you and through you.

The Hebrew name for Jesus is Yeshua, which means, “the Lord is salvation.”

Reach out for Him in faith, even in the midst of darkness.

Your rescuer is near.
