Overcome — overcome — overcome RHEMA WORD (06 / 30 / 2011)

“Overcome — overcome — overcome, this word will have more meaning and importance in your life and the lives of others in the present season you are in. Victory — victory — victory should be the focus of your attention. Don’t dwell in the negative circumstances, but instead seek Me for guidance and direction.

And don’t let fear overcome you, and have any place in your life. You know that fear is anti-faith, and will only cause you to fall and fail. Faith is not wishful thinking, or deceiving yourself into believing that you’re unrealistically able of do something.

True faith is trusting in My word and guidance for your life. Many who have claimed to be mine, or even taken on the role as a Sheppard have often done things through their own logic or motivation for their own personal gain to promote themselves and their own ministries.

But they have lacked spiritual discernment, and wisdom, which comes from the guidance and direction of My Spirit. Their ego has taken over their so-called ministry, which has become more important than I AM; and My objective and will, according to My purpose is unknown, and not considered. What is ministry, when I have not been their first love, and My will not their primary purpose? Pride has replaced trust and independence has replaced faith.

There is a shaking going on, tribulation is coming and refinement for purification, or elimination, will be coming to the prideful, arrogant, who presently occupy leadership in ministry, who have focused more on success, rather than their relationship with Me. Personal relationship and dependence upon Me is absolutely critical for even a sheep in My flock. Who ordained these self appointed self seeking, so-called Christian leaders? 

Those who are not truly Mine, who were not ordain to lead My people, will become subject to my wrath, and I will allow the dark principalities and powers to overtake them. Woe to those who make merchandise of My people, and who take from those who I have ordained to lead. I will take that which seems foolish to the world, to confound the wisdom of the proud:  Because in weakness, through faith I will make them strong.

The powers of darkness know that their time is short, and in desperation, they will stop at nothing, using every avenue, and passed powers and delegated authority, to accomplish their objectives.  Those who are Mine, must be able to walk in the power of My Spirit to overcome them.

New wine-skins or flexible wine-skins will be necessary to go where I will be taking those who will walk strong according to My ways. My Spirit will not tolerate passivity, arrogance or pride in the old ways.  I want mighty men of valor, who will be strong in Me. those who are able to receive the new wine to be able take on the difficult circumstances. To those I will give whatever they need to accomplish the task, done in accordance to My will.”
