Getting Past Things That Oppose Us

MARTY GABLER—Our salvation is enough to get us past things that oppose us. “The Lord is my Rock, my Fortress, and my Deliverer; my God, my keen and firm Strength in Whom I will trust and take refuge, my Shield, and the Horn of my salvation, my High Tower.”  (Ps.18:2, Amp) “The Lord is my Light and my Salvation—whom shall I fear or dread? The Lord is the Refuge and Stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?” (Ps.27:1, Amp)

Shaking and Reseting the Church

Melissa Gabler—Be aware of doubt, unbelief, skepticism and rationalism in your life. Catch it and counter it with truth in the Word as the Holy Spirit leads. Take time to worship. Get past the song, and worship the One Who is worthy! Watch out for materialism and self-focus.  They are bait to draw you into a fruitless and dark place. It’s time to get serious because I believe WE THE CHURCH are about to be shaken to a full-on reset. The veil between the spirit realm and our natural one is getting thinner and thinner, and it’s all because His Kingdom is coming to this earth and evil is being driven out. The days ahead are going to be uncomfortable yet phenomenal. It’s an adventure each of us was made to walk… together.

Dreams That Communicate

KATHY—The Holy Spirit sometimes gives you a word of wisdom which reveals a dream’s message. However, it is just as fulfilling to get to the message, meaning and purpose through the process of prayerfully searching them out. We can sit at the Lord’s feet and lean against His knee and ponder the pieces of a dream.  Sometimes we don’t even have to completely dismantle the dream to get the gist of it, but it if it does require more effort, then we research the Bible and reference books and friends until the concepts connect and open our understanding.  God created dreams and visions to communicate and He will certainly help us get to understanding.

Calling Things What God Calls Them

Marty Gabler—It is possible to call things something they are not and get into disagreement with God. It is also possible to call things into existence that have not yet existed to the glory of God. We must be cautious about getting into agreement with typically labeling people and situations and begin to speak what God’s Word and will are concerning them.   I declare that we will take advantage of every opportunity to speak life and not death, to speak blessing and not cursing, to speak hope and not despair, to speak a way out for those who are in captivity instead of cursing their captivity, and to speak solutions instead of merely observing and reporting impossibilities.  Rom 4:17  “As it is written, I have made you the father of many nations. [He was appointed our father] in the sight of God in Whom he believed, Who gives life to the dead and speaks of the nonexistent things that [He has foretold and promised] as if they [already] existed.”

Trust is a Principle

Melissa Gabler–Trust is a principle of the Kingdom. God knew what He was doing
when He created it. It’s life bearing, abundant life bearing. How beautiful
it is that the principles of God are set in place to provide the John 10:10
abundant life for all who live them. He gave us a map for life. Check this
out, Psalm 84:12 (AMP) “O Lord of hosts, How blessed and greatly favored is the man who trusts in You [believing in You, relying on You, and committing himself to You with confident hope and expectation].” Yes, that is beautiful. But check out the rest of Psalm 84. It literally lines out what a life looks like that trusts God. Vs. 4 “Blessed and greatly favored
are those who dwell in Your house and Your presence; They will be singing Your praises all the day long. Selah.” Blessing and favor follow those who trust. Vs. 6 “Passing through the Valley of Weeping (Baca), they make it a place of springs; The early rain also covers it with blessings.”

The Latter Glory of our Lives

KATHY GABLER–Amazingly, God promised even more than this powerful peace that we need. Listen to the rest of the promise: The latter glory of our lives, (our future) will be greater! (Hag.2:9) In future, we will do what we were born to do, more loudly, more intensely, more fruitfully than ever before! We are on the threshold of seeing more of the presence and plan of God manifest in our lives than ever before. We are on the verge of experiencing dimensions of His power like never before. We dare not give up now. God will faithfully weave our experiences, good, bad and ugly, into His good plans for our future life . . . if we will refuse to give up!

Encourage to Sensible Actions

Marty Gabler—As the people of God assemble today may each admonish the other. May each speak and encourage one another to sensible actions as matters are brought up in conversation; for the Word and wisdom of God dwell in His people that they might encourage one another on to sound principles applied in life’s trials.  “Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.” (Rom.15:14, NKJV)

Partner With Yahweh

Marty—In spite of some past inferences we might have heard concerning prayer, Yahweh is not a celestial bellboy waiting in an anteroom for us to ring a bell to do what we require. Rather, in prayer, we partner with God for His purposes in our lives and in this earth. Jesus went apart from the crowd to pray so that He might find how to partner with His Father so He could glorify Him (Jn.5:19).  Jn.12:27, (The Passion Translation) — “Even though I am torn within, and my soul is in turmoil, I will not ask the Father to rescue me from this hour of trial. For I have come to fulfill my purpose—to offer myself to God.”

Distraction and Brainwashing

MELISSA—A couple of months ago I asked the Lord to show me if I was missing anything with all that has been happening in our nation.  I instantly saw a picture of an octopus with more arms than are natural.  On the tip of each arm was either a television, phone, tablet or computer.  I knew this was about distraction and brainwashing.  As I watched, in slow motion, another arm, that was massive, started coming up from the deep.  It did not have any device on the end of it, and it was in motion to land quite a blow on its target.  As it rose from the depths it began to shrink.  By the time it was in position it was completely dwarfed! This led me to declare, You will not have the impact you planned BUT YOU WILL BRING MORE AWAKENING! Fast Forward to recent events:  Darkness tried its best to keep victories from happening but that blow did not land as intended!
