EXHORTATIONS FROM THE FATHER

                                                             ["Reflections" Of The Father's Heart]

                                                                                      [january 28th 2008]


+       If there remains "any" ground of "unforgiveness" in the hearts of My children, then to that degree that they "retain" that ground they shall surely continue to walk in a "natural love" [selfishness refined], regardless of how hard they "try" to walk in My love. For it is certain that there is NO room in the heart for anything which is apart from My Person.

+       How can My children be in the "place of abiding" if they continually put aside "any" of the tasks that I have given them to do. It is only as one both seeks and practices an "active" obedience, moment to moment - striving in and by My Spirit to "act" on that which is being revealed to them that one will truly enter in. The first step that each one of My children must take in this hour in order to come to [come back to] the place of abiding is to set themselves before Me that I might "refresh" their vision, and "remind" them of any tasks that they have left undone - due to a spirit of procrastination. If one of My children is truly serious about breaking through any hindrances that have delayed their "entrance" into the place of abiding, then surely a "fast" of some degree would be in order. Always remember, that it is only fear [sin] that keeps any one of My children out of the secret place of My presence, and yet it is only in this secret place of My presence [the "inner chamber"] that the "ground" for these fears can be removed
[1 John 4:18]. From these things, one can see clearly the "deceptive schemes" of the Evil One to keep every one of My children out of the "fullness" of their inheritance in Christ. For it is from this position of abiding in the "fullness" of ones salvation [Covenant] that My unlimited power shall be poured forth in this final hour to both devastate Satan and his forces, and set the captives free!
