Do not dwell in your yesterdays

Tuesday 21 November 2023

I was out with Luke at 5am, the eastern sky was just barely beginning to show faint light. It was cold and breezy, and I was thinking of my earlier visions of scythes smashing stone. I shivered, and not from the cold. The Lord spoke into my thoughts:

            Consider and learn from your yesterday, but do not dwell there, neither tomorrow. Live this day – all is forgiven for your yesterdays, so do not carry them or live in them.

            I need you present today.

            It is true, as Judith wrote on her window:

                        Hold On, for I am coming!

            Do not give up or grow weary. Trust Me, trust My will to fulfill My promises.

The Lord Encourages

Wednesday 8 November 2023

Last evening, outside with Luke, I heard the Lord say,

            I hear you. Do you hear Me?

            I am with you, and I call you by name.

I heard my name whispered. With such love and gentleness, I heard,

            Yes, my Amos, it is you I am speaking to. Listen for what I say and what I will tell you, for there is clear communication between us, and there is no time difference between us.

My ears pop open, as though there was a pressure change. “I am hungry and thirsty for you, Father.” I am frightfully aware of His Name, knowing that he knows everything about me, knowing that he watches me, and how deep, how vast is his knowing.

There is quiet as we walk, and even as I strain to hear anything else, there is something like peace because I know that when He wants to speak, I will hear.

Several hours later, I am crawling into bed, the day done, prayers uttered, and gratefulness washes over me. A small tune comes to me, and I sing gently, “Angels, angels everywhere …”, when my eyes pop open in the darkness at the suddenness of his voice:

            If I tell you to get up and write, I want you to get up and write.


The night is full of unremembered dreams, full of motion and people moving about. There are images of trains and wagons, images of digging in the earth, images of dark water.

When I wake, something like sadness is on me and I can’t shake it off. Before I go out with Luke for the morning walk, I glance at some worldly news items, war and terrorism, and the sadness, the disappointment intensifies.

It is windy and cold as we walk, but birds are delighting in the breeze. Gulls are soaring upwind, and a marsh hawk is effortlessly swinging low over the grasses, hunting, barely moving a feather. The heaviness on me lifts gently.

“Thank you, Father. This is the day you have made, Lord, and I will rejoice in it.”

            Stand upright, child, there is no day for you to be discouraged or sad. You know these words:

            Be strong and courageous.

            Do not rely on your own understanding.

            I have infinite ways to supply all your needs, this day and all days.

            Now go, be encouraged, encourage others, believe with your heart that I exist in more sensory capability than you can imagine. I am beyond your understanding, even as I help you understand. Remember the Trail of Tears, remember that I AM more than angry, and know this:

            I do not compromise in Love or Justice.

Are you taking me?

Thursday 2 November 2023

I was out very early with Luke, walking in the pre-dawn moonlight, pressing into the Father’s presence.

I felt a strong, sharp head pain, and then my heart seemed to skip a beat. Then there was a strange, all-over body sensation.

“Lord, what is this? Are you taking me? Is this what it feels like?”

There was a pause, and then:

            I am taking you to a place you’ve never been before. I am taking you on a path you’ve never seen.

Spiritual Procedures are coming – Get Ready

Saturday 21 October 2023

Out walking with Luke at about 6am, when the Lord says:

            There is Spiritual Dialysis coming.


Monday 30 October 2023

Walking with Luke in the pre-dawn light I am praying aloud:

“We will wait upon the Lord! We wait on you, my great I AM! We seek you, I seek you, I seek your presence.”

He answers:

            Judgement is coming, and it is next to, back-to-back with My Glory, skin-to-skin, blood-to-blood. For you ARE and WILL BE in covenant with me.

            A spiritual root canal surgery is necessary and is coming.

At this I hear music, as if it has been cued up, waiting for this moment. Silver threads seem to fill the air, also seemingly on-cue. He continues:

            These are the sound and frequency of freedom, of love. Do you begin to discern My themes at work?

            Did not the people of Pompei feel the tremors, feel the shakings, the warnings, the signals?

            Feel them now! Get ready and be ready!

A message of Love

Wednesday 1 November 2023

Standing outside in the cold rain I ask, “Am I doing what you want? What do you want me to say? Is there a message for me, for us all? Are there warnings, or orders?”

He makes me relax and breathe deeply. I feel a sense of calm that been far away for days, and then he speaks gently:

            You write as I tell you and correct you. I love your work and I bless it. You do not know where your words go, but I know, and that is enough.

            My message is Love, even as each of you experience it differently. My message is surety and confidence that I know and see all that occurs. My message is that I AM, and I speak, I call to all people. That is my “transmission” as you would say. Your “receiving” of My message is as different as each of you are.

            Your receiving is different than your understanding, for you cannot know My perspective, My timing, My purposes for everything under Heaven. You sometimes call this an “unfathomable mystery” – I know, for I hear every cry and prayer – because your earthly lives experience death and loss that makes no sense to you. I know, for I hear your cries and prayers. You ask, “How or why does a loving God allow innocent children to suffer and be taken? Why does anyone suffer and die ‘before their time?’ Why do some miracles and healings happen and not others?”

            I know, for I hear every cry and prayer. I know, for I have them all, all the fallen, all the children, all the unborn, all the innocent and all the unknowing. You know this to be True, that I desire none to be lost. Consider these words, child:

            ‘My Father’s house has many dwellings.’

            You apply many interpretations and meanings to this, but consider how many people, how many creatures have walked your earth since Creation. Consider my vastness and be in awe at the places I have for them all.

            I know – yes, I do know – your anguish at each loss, just as I know your anguish when you come to me seeking forgiveness. In your anguish and crying out, many then have a glimpse, a taste of My work in My own son, who took every unrighteousness on Himself, as I willed. Yes, so that through the One I see you and hear you at all.

            Yes, that much do I love you.

            Yes, child, My Message is Love, unfailing, unconquered, unending. Yes, it may come to you with war as well as peace, with my wrath unimagined and unseen by anyone living. Remember that I do not compromise, in love, in mercy, in judgement.

            Remain strong, unafraid and at the ready, for I have not told you to ‘stand down’. Seek me and listen for Me, watch for Me and encourage all you meet, for a Glorious future is coming.

Demand signals

Wednesday 18 October 2023

Out with Luke in the semi-darkness, seeking His presence. I ask, “Lord, what is it about demand signals that you keep pressing on me to speak of?”

There is a long silence while we walk, and then I hear:

            Consider, child, who or what is setting the demands upon you this day, and how far back in time must you look to see when these things have been set upon you. The enemy has been and is now making signals of chaos, disruption, fear, division, hopelessness, sickness, injustice, unbelief, idol worship, Mammon worship and so much more. These have appeared as giants to you, and you know what to do with giants.

That is a lot to consider, so, as I am pondering all that. I prayed, “I am seeking you, Lord. Speak to me, Holy Spirit.” Almost before I had finished speaking, the Spirit comes to me, and some clarity appears.

My mouth is opened, and I ask aloud, “Why not us? Why is it not we who set the demand signals, for now and for the future?”

“In fact, it IS us! It IS we who must set the intention, set the demand signals for what we desire, and what we have sought the Lord’s guidance on.”

            Yes, child! This is a message for you to give. Remember the covenant and the authority you utilize. Then set the intention, set the signal to align with Me, to align with My frequency. Set it and call My power into action for peace, resonance, steadfast courage, unity, health, righteous justice, fiery faith, glorious worship, manifest abundance, overwhelming love for Me and for each other.


Thank you, Lord! And yes, we do know what to do with giants – prophesy and strike them down, one after another.

I do not experiment

Tuesday 24 October 2023

I was in deep thought while walking Luke in the early semi-darkness, thinking about all the forces and powers pressing on us. As I was considering forces and reactions, thinking about how we learn, how we come to some understanding of the world around us, the Lord spoke this direct statement to me:

            I do not experiment.

That was all. It was for us to absorb and consider His authority.


His statement is powerful in its truth and simplicity. There is great comfort and absolute Peace in His words. The Lord is not conducting an ‘experiment’ with us. He does not ‘experiment’, because He is El Shaddai, the Lord God Almighty, and He Knows.

When we are taught, when we learn, we may learn by trial-and-error, by experimentation as part of the process of learning, but that is how He created us.

The absolute gift of free will is not an experiment.

Jesus is not an experiment, something, someone for us to “try”, to “see if He works.” God told Moses, “I am that I am” and Jesus tells us, “I am the way, the truth and the life.” There’s no ambiguity here, no scientific method required to understand.


For reference I am including two additional items.

From the etymology dictionary: experiment (n.)

mid-14c., “action of observing or testing; an observation, test, or trial;” also “piece of evidence or empirical proof; feat of magic or sorcery,” from Old French esperment “practical knowledge, cunning; enchantment, magic spell; trial, proof, example; lesson, sign, indication,” from Latin experimentum “a trial, test, proof, experiment,” noun of action from experiri “to try, test,” from ex “out of” + peritus “experienced, tested,” from the suffixed form of root *per- “to try, risk.”


“God has not been trying an experiment on my faith or love in order to find out their quality. He knew it already. It was I who didn’t. In this trial He makes us occupy the dock, the witness box, and the bench all at once. He always knew that my temple was a house of cards. His only way of making me realize the fact was to knock it down.”

― C.S. Lewis, “A Grief Observed”

Visions of war, and words to keep strong, to keep going forward

Thursday 21 September 2023

Wide awake at 4, prayed with intercessors from 5-6, and then was out with Luke, seeking the Lord. I was feeling stressed, overwhelmed, lost and frustrated, and I said out loud, “Lord, you’re squeezing the hell out of me!” He replied,

            That’s right, child. I am squeezing it out of you, for I want none of it in you.


The late afternoon was sunny and dry, and I started to mow the grass. I had not gotten very far when thoughts and images came flooding into me, visions and words.

I was thinking of words from President Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address:

“…Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this…”

I was thinking of this because in my spirit I could hear guns being fired. I could smell the smoke, and I could hear the screaming of the wounded and dying. The images were horrific, and I couldn’t shake them.

Lincoln’s speech was so powerful, and these lines seem imprinted on my forehead:

“…It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain…”

The highlighting is mine, because my vision was full of carnage, of dead and dying soldiers, and of their blood everywhere. Suddenly the scene shifted forward in time to more battles, this time in the Pacific during World War II. There were explosions and gunfire and dead men everywhere. I have a vision of a warship exploding, and clouds of fire and smoke. It was so overwhelming that I had to stop everything, stop moving, and breathe into the present, until the visions pass.

I could not even seem to render any tears, but I know with all certainty that my freedom to even be here at this moment was bought and paid for by that last full measure of devotion. Then I was instantly taken to the deeper place of humbling realization that it is Jesus who gave that full measure of devotion, for me, and for all of us.

Now my mind is racing with thoughts, and I am flooded with emotions. “How do I thank you, Lord? How do I, how do we, any of us, honor you and honor all those who gave themselves up? I don’t feel humble enough at all. I don’t feel enough reverence for all that sacrifice, and what would be enough? I know you’ve shown me this …”

I could hear my heart beating and the sound of my breathing seems very loud. There is a pause, which He speaks into.

            I show you this to remind you of the blood covenant in which you live. The war you are in and the battles you are fighting are unlike those except for the dead and dying all around you, for what else is the objective of your enemies – of the enemy that hates me so much that he will kill and maim you without remorse?

            Oh yes, child, it is insidious that you are being killed by chemicals and poisons and your so-called pharmaceuticals. It is so insidious that many around you do not recognize the dead and wounded because there are not furious physical battle scenes as I just showed you. They do not, they will not, recognize or acknowledge because to do so would require their admission, and they are afraid.

            Why do I show you such scenes? Why do I have you write a Letter of Condolence? Yes, it is necessary to be a war correspondent as well as a fighter. Allow your pain and heartache to come to Me, and I create something beautiful from it. As all my warriors know, you must look beyond the dead and dying, even if sometimes it seems disrespectful, because you are still in a fight. Because I want you to remain clear-eyed, with faces forward, hard as flint.

            As the battles rage and bodies fall, you know this deeper truth: he wants your souls, and you know I will not relent, and I will not let him have them.

            Now go, live in this moment, not the past, and live for the vision of the future which you surely know I AM BRINGING.

            So much do I love you.

The time is now – My Time

Saturday evening 21 October 2023

There were reports earlier in the week about a black flag being flown in Iran, and voices claiming, ‘The time is now’ for some sort of ‘global jihad’. There is war.

It was 8:30 at night when I took Luke out for a last walk; rain and wind pelted us as we set off. I hadn’t walked 50 yards when the Lord spoke these words:

            They are right – the ones with the black flag – the time IS now, but it is MY time. It is MY time to sweep and sift.

            They don’t know what they’re saying, but I know, for the time IS now.

            I will defeat your enemies and I will defeat My enemies.

            You will see many fall. You must not be moved, and not question the fallen.

Hornswoggled

25 January 2023

[Music in my ears upon waking: “Sail On, Sailor”, The Beach Boys, 1973
“I sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean
Through restful waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened
Sail on, sail on, sailor”]


Feeling very unrested, frazzled, with danger signals of runaway technology running through my head. Feeling as though what we have made – in particular, AI and things like ChatGPT have run amok, they have become “berserkers”. What would make me even think of that word?

Walking Luke in the cold semi-darkness, I can’t seem to shake the feelings of unease about so many things, when the Lord says,

            Yes, your senses are working well, but you have been hornswoggled.

I knew two things right away: (1) He was speaking to all of us, not just me, and (2) Much of what we are “seeing” and “hearing” is something like ‘sleight-of-hand’. I had to wait to get back home before looking up that word; here it is:

Hornswoggle

transitive verb

  1. To bamboozle; deceive.

verb

  1. To deceive or trick.
  2. Deprive of by deceit.
