The blood of Jesus has kept me and my entire family safe from death. I used to be afraid of proclaiming this; I guess it’s a lot to do with the culture I was brought up in. “Don’t count your chickens before they’re hatched”, people would say; or: “Isn’t that tempting fate?” 

Now God has opened my eyes to the truth- the opposite: that it is right in this hour to thank God we have been kept safe. Because...how do we overcome?

Revelation 12:11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony...

This is how we also must overcome! Put your trust entirely in His Blood...And proclaim that you are doing so.

 Psalm91

For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor the destruction that wastes at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you....

That is, as long as we are....Dwelling in the SECRET PLACE of the Most High;

What does this mean? That we need to stop hiding from Him (Gen3:7-10); and trust Him enough to start hiding in Him (Ps.32; John6:29-58)....then, as promised, we will find REST in the shadow of the Almighty.

 ~~2Chronicles7:14~~

The hand cannot say to the eye I do not need you. We need each other; the famous cannot say to the unknown “you’ve got it wrong”, just because he is an ‘unknown’. We do not earn the gifts or the calling on our lives: if this were the case, the Church would be the proudest most competitive structure on earth. God gives gifts and callings to whomever He will, and in whichever season He chooses: The purpose being that we would work together, to enhance and fortify each other as One Body: We are not the ‘Club of Hands’ or the ‘Society of Eyes’: We are the Body of Christ; where the eyes need the nose as surly as the foot needs the toes. When we work together under One Head - especially in the prophetic, we validate, strengthen and clarify what God is trying to show us, providing we do not contradict  His will (revealed in the pattern of his Word). So if one prophesies persecution, while another prophesies revival, let’s get on our knees and prayerfully take to heart  both: Because I believe that one is needed to produce the other. It’s not that the one prophesying persecution does not believe in God’s goodness and mercy- not at all. We see in part and prophesy in part, which is why we work together. I am no prophet: I only know what the Lord has shown me: The Church in the West has been asleep - deeply, comfortably asleep; and in order to see an awakening of this magnitude, there must be a significant shaking. If God has to shake us HARD to wake us up, that we would run ONLY to Him; cling ONLY to Him; stand in the gap and cry out ONLY to Him, that mercy instead of judgement would fall on this nation....If God has to shake us to wake us; to send the fire in order to prepare us for the rain...if He HAS TO do this...is this not the goodness and mercy of God?

1Corinthians 12; 1Kings18:38-44; Romans11:20-22;Ezekiel 22:30; Psalm119:71&75-76; Hosea 5:15

 For we have been born of God; born of the Spirit; not of natural seed to inherit the ‘Tower of Babel’ that this world is building; but of spiritual seed to inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. What fellowship can Light possibly have with darkness? We are no longer of the lineage left to us by our earthly forefathers(which will perish): We have been born again of seed incorruptible: 

The wind blows wherever it will. No one knows where it comes from or where it is going- so it is the same with everyone born of the Spirit. Now, like Melchizedek the Priest of Salem, we are a puzzle to this world; we leave no paper trail except to the Cross: We have no lineage except Christ, who is all and who is in all who believe: We have no identity except in Him - and we do not need one. All that matters is a new creation. God is our Father; He hems us in, in front and behind. Our past is under His Blood; our present is hidden in His Body; our future is in His Glory: We will not truly recognize ourselves until that Glory is revealed. My life is nothing, but Jesus Christ.

 “For He who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep “(Psalm 121:4).  

The Lord does not sleep- and neither does His Body: For as surely as the sun sets over one nation - one continent, it is rising upon another, and the prayers of the Saints- the watchmen of the Lord, unified and unceasing, continue to rise as incense before His Face: 

We are One Body in many nations, but what makes us so formidable is that where some of us are resting, others of us are wide awake, continuing to radiate and reflect His Glory. So in essence, we, like our Lord, neither slumber nor sleep.

This is the Body of Messiah: Sanctified; Unified; Glorified: 

Through the Blood; beyond the vale: This is who we are.  This is why we must never, ever stop communing with Him; It is only through Yeshua our Head, that we become One Body.

For this is where everything else begins (just you and I Lord): To discover that secret place, is the reason for the season we are in.
