"Prepare [ ], prepare [ ], says the
Lord, for it is the day of the Lord's preparation.
For I would have My people prepare themselves for
that which is coming, says the Lord. For does
a man go into battle without preparation? Does an
athlete engage in a contest without training? I say
to you, if you do not let Me prepare you for
that which is coming you will surely not be
able to stand.
But how shall we be prepared you ask? Let Me
do a work in your life which has never been done
before, for I am able says God, to take
you to Myself and prepare you as a
vessel which shall be used of Me and which shall
show forth My glory. But first you must be willing.
You must be willing to submit yourselves to Me in
everything, yes, in every detail of
your life. For I will take you and
remold you and make you a fit vessel to contain
that which is necessary to withstand in this evil
day all of the onslaughts of the enemy. Therefore My
people, let Me prepare you says the
Lord.
And now to be more specific. Within each one
who has been born of My Spirit, is the potential to
become a fully matured son of God. For I have
planted My Seed within you, and that seed has the
complete potential of the One from whom it was
taken. For even as I did regenerate you
within, I did plant within you the very seed
of the Holy One of God ... even the Savior of the
world. (I Peter 1:23). And this seed contains a
Divine vortex which is capable of restructuring
your entire soul to where it reverberates the
vibrational pitch of the One from whom it was taken.
I say, without the implantation of that seed as a
vortex of Divine power there would be no possibility
of any change in your life. For the key is the
implantation of the Divine Seed and from this seed
there unfolds the very divine life of the Son of
God. But certain conditions must obtain for that
seed to fully unfold its divine life and potential
within thee. As any seed it must have the right
environmental conditions for growth; even so do I
show you now that which is
necessary.
First there must be an absolute separation
from those things which would keep the living seed
from shooting forth its divine life potential, and
filling thy life with the fruit of its divine
attributes. And this requires a complete separation
from the things of the world which choke the good
soil of your heart, and cause the living seed
to be staid in its growth potential. Even so do the
things of the world hinder the work of preparation
that I would do within you. For you do
become burdened with the cares and concerns of this
life; the burdens of this world press down on
you, and the delusive lights of this world blind you
and begin to take over and crowd out the divine life
potential which I have placed within you. You must,
I say, separate yourselves from the corrupting
influences of this world; separate yourselves
from all persons and things which tend to have a
defiling influence on your life. For I say, the
seed must have good soil to grow in, unhampered by
the choking and the suppressing effects of worldly
cares and desires.
Secondly, you must be willing to spend much
time with Me alone every day; this is an absolute
essential. And I say to you, If you will
eliminate from your life most of the concerns and
activities which are purely in and of this world,
you will find that you will have much time that is
released to be given to Me, that I may draw you
to Myself and minister to you in the
secret place. I say to you, spend much time
with Me seeking My face, praising and
worshipping Me with all of your heart, and
listening for My voice that I may speak to
you, says the
Lord.
And then thirdly, you must take My Word and
live in it, absorb it, eat it, take it into
your innermost being, and hide it in your
heart. Study daily several chapters of My Word, and
this takes time; thus you will have to keep other
activities which involve your time to a bare
minimum. But I say, will you gain that deliverance
and that power to stand in the day of battle just
ahead? Then you must count as nothing the
things of this life, and spend your spare time
studying My Word, and thinking of My ways for
you. Otherwise you will be caught short in the
coming days and you will not be able to stand true
in the ways of testing just ahead when all men shall
be tried as never before, says the
Lord.
And then in the fourth place, you must
fellowship with My people. For I have ordained such
fellowship for your mutual edification and
building up in the body of Christ. For none of you
is complete in himself; yes, truly you need
one another. You must spend as much time as possible
in mutual fellowship and study together that I May
minister to you through one another. For I say
to you, I will cause My people to be joined
together in this day as never before They shall be
bound and knit together for their own good and for
their own protection, says the Lord. For who
can stand alone, says God? Who can say that
he needs no one? I say, you will need one another in
the days ahead. For in times of great stress I will
cause you to speak one to another, and encourage one
another, and strengthen one another; even as the
parts of the body uphold and strengthen one another
as they are knit and joined together, says
the Lord. Therefore, you must let Me join you
together now as members of one body in the
Lord.
Again let Me speak to you concerning
your welfare in keeping yourself from
false teachers, and false prophets in this day. For
verily they shall fill the land as a mighty flood,
and My people must let Me prepare them so they will
not be deceived in that day. For verily is it not
written that the very elect would be in danger of
being deceived, if not prepared by their God.
(Matt. 24:24). But I say, I will prepare you
to discern that which is true and that which is
false.
And if your heart is set on Me
to do My will, I certainly will teach you My
ways, says the Lord. But there must be no
mixture in your life, says the Lord; for if
your heart is not set on Me to know My truth,
and to do My will, you truly shall be
deceived. For none shall be able to stand in this
day, except those I have especially prepared. So
prepare My people; I say again prepare! Cast all
other things aside as nothing in comparison with the
one supreme goal of seeking your God, and
separating yourself to Him ... for if
you will not do this you will not be able to stand,
says the
Lord."
