"Aligned - Armored Up - Focused" - Spiritual Discernment

 

By Mary Lindow

 

Hello Brothers and Sisters!

Today’s podcast is specifically focused on a word from the Lord that I have had stirring in my spirit and with current events and all of the tragedies taking place around us, many people are either paralyzed, angry, or are extremely, extremely in despair.

 

Many are being driven into a deeper place of prayer and it is also bringing to light, the weaknesses that many of us as believers have!

So, this word is a word of encouragement and also a directive from the Holy Spirit and I believe that it is a strong word and has such powerful encouragement in it so I’m going to deliver it to you just as I have received it from the Lord. So let’s go!

 

THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS SAYING...

"Be very careful whom you share your treasures with. How many pearls have you cast before piggish users in the past, only to have them ground to powder?

The servant Paul the apostle was more than a new herald in the order of the day. He stirred up old systems and disturbed demonic religious strongholds. You must be ready to "power up" for years of opposition and hoards of religious factions and fractures of truth!

The past years of agony have been hard soldierly-like boot camp. 

Elite forces training.

It will not go away. 

You must simply learn that it is My duty to do the fighting for you.

Just be certain that you are only speaking, ONLY SPEAKING, what I have told you to.  Speak Nothing more and Speak Nothing less."

 

THIS IS A TIME IN THE KINGDOM 

WHERE WE ALL MUST SOBERLY COUNT THE COST 

OF WHAT WE ARE ABOUT TO STEP INTO ON EVERY LEVEL.

 

If there is not the peace of the Holy Spirit resting on those whom you are involved with, don't move into anything until the peace comes.

Gatherings and movements can feel real exciting and purposeful, until conflict, control, and competition show up.

The apostolic and prophetic saints in Acts, fasted, ministered to the Lord, and then the Holy Spirit spoke. 

We have all learned many a painful lesson in the past from experiences of over planning, programming, and hurrying to help God out!

 

To everything there is a season, a time. 

Until you have a full green light, don't move. 

 It will keep you from having to backtrack and...

 …It trains you in humility.

 

Familiar Friends OR RELATIONSHIPS?

Ask yourself the following question. 

"Are you simply familiar with people or are you working in relationship with others and those whom you feel are to move into a more Kingdom minded level of Spiritual intimacy with?"

 

IF YOU SHARE WHAT IS PASSIONATELY BURNING IN YOUR SPIRIT WITH THOSE WHO ONLY "RELATE"

ON A CASUAL SPIRITUAL LEVEL THEMSELVES… 

 …YOU WILL BE CONTINUALLY DEVASTATED.

 

Spiritual intimacy can only be as deep as those who spend the time in spiritually intimate worship, waiting, and self-examining dialog with the Father, and in relating to others of a likeminded heart. 

This is not easy for busy, human life!

 

"If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and purpose. Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves."

Philippians 2: 1-3

 

A PROPHETIC WORD CONCLUSION:

"Hear Me”, Cries the Spirit of Holy Grace and Mercy! 

I desire to move upon, in, and through each of you. 

Not one of you alone can endure the onslaughts of evil by standing aloof and silent.

Nor can the most vocal of gifts among you clearly communicate all that I long to express.

Until each one is willing to step into the Holy place of pure relationship with Me and with one another, waiting, crying out, Yes - even waiting until I come and refresh, then the generation waiting in the wings will not fully come forward.

Until it is branded into your spirits that this era in time is for the saving of the lost, the redeeming of the wasted, and the release of My power, of My glory, you will be so very, very frustrated by the heaviness that doggedly harasses your soul.
