September 26, 2006: Remove the hindrance of your own thoughts and accusations so that I may move you into kingdom position. Those who I call I equip, and those who I equip I bring the revelation of the times and seasons so that you may speak those heavenly things. But, you must remove the limitations that you have inadvertently established for yourself. Raise the standard. Break the bronze gates that the enemy has placed before you, and come forth. I have not called you for nothing. I want to expand your horizons that I might open to you the fullness of your destiny in order to bring you into your kingdom position. The enemy has lied to you to tempt you to discount yourself. Roll back the limitations and put on faith. Then, come forth, says the Lord.

Beloved, I tell you honestly (for I am God who cannot lie) that I am with you! I know what you have gone through and what you are currently facing. Refuse to be overwhelmed with the things that you must consider at this time, but rather be My brave-heart, and yield totally to the moving of My Spirit. For, certainly, I will move you to a place closer to Me where you will abide in peace. Trust Me completely and you will come through this time with ease, says the Lord.

2 Corinthians 13:11 Finally, brethren, farewell. Become complete. Be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

  • The Trumpet by Bill Burns

October 23, 2006: My great desire is that you will rise up from the weariness of soul and from the heartache of the past and come forth into the brightness of this new season. I will be your guiding light and the power that carries you into the fullness of your destiny. It is time to arise and enjoy the moving of My Spirit. You will both go out and come in with the presence of My Spirit. It is time for you to understand that we are one. I have not forgotten you, nor will I, but I will cause the winds of heaven to blow upon you, and you shall find yourself riding on the horse (power) of My Spirit into the fullness of this Day. It is true that what is written cannot be broken, and every word that is found in the Holy scriptures will manifest in the end of the age, from the very beginning of time when I said, “Let there be light,” to the very end of time when the Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.” You will come into completion and perfection of who you are in Me. Mount up, and come into the fullness of your purpose, says the Lord.

I had a vision of fire burning in the sky or heavenlies. They were flames of fire that were on the move, not staying in once place, and I could see no fuel for these flames to consume. And, I asked the Lord, “What does this mean?” And, He said: These are not natural fires that need natural fuel to burn. No, these are supernatural fires that have not yet reached the realm of the earth, for they are still above in the realm of the Spirit. When these fires touch down, they will not consume you; they will purify you as you yield to the Holy flame. Do not resist this fire of purification, for certainly I am with you even in this fire, says the Lord.

Luke 12:49 “I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!”

  • Just a simple reminder… (Natalie Cole/TBN w/my notes)
    When God is testing you:
    1.) No talking.
    2.) No cheating!  Keep your eyes on your own work.
    3.) It’s an open book test.
    4.) The answers are written in red.
    5.) Should you fail this test, you can always retake it tomorrow.

happy-birthday

July 24, 1969

Happy Birthday Rena!!  First, let’s look back on those Small Straws and celebrate all He has done!

  • Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns — July 24, 2006:

Steer clear of the issues of life that cloud your vision and bring confusion. Keep your heart pure before Me, says the Lord, and trust that I will bring you through every obstacle, guiding you with My wisdom. Continue to fight the enemy in every place you find him, for certainly his strongholds will come down if you persist. Do not be afraid, but rather be courageous and very bold.

Proverbs 21:22: A wise man scales the city of the mighty, and brings down the trusted stronghold.

Then move forward to His word for today.

  • Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns — July 24, 2009:

Take time to be thankful, for there is power for blessings in thanksgiving. Stir up your gratitude by remembering what I have done for you, says the Lord. In so doing you will enter the realm of My presence and stand in holiness before My throne. There is nothing more pure in the kingdom than a grateful heart. Bring your perfect sacrifice of praise and be blessed.

Psalms 100:4 Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name.

Now for some more nuggets I am adding from Life Today…

When the Miracle Doesn’t Come

  • “…We can’t judge adversity by what happens here.” —Steven K. Scott
  • “It takes as great a miracle to live without the miracle that you’ve hoped for, prayed for, wished for, longed for–it takes just as much grace to give you that miracle grace to live.” —James Robison

How timely is His message?  Bless your heart sis!  Celebrate your year—YOUR year of restoration!!

  • Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns — October 10, 2006:

You have entered a new spiritual season that is as yet unexplored. Do not become alarmed if you feel somewhat insecure or strange. And, do not take your feelings seriously at this time, for it will only last for a brief time as you make a transition into the newness of the season. Watch for events that come about suddenly that have the elements of being life-changing, and do not be afraid to explore unusual possibilities, says the Lord.

Joshua 1:9 Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.

“Without a doubt”

Seeking clarity without a doubt!

“No matter what your dealing with, FAITH is the correct response!”  —Kieth Moore/KCM

  • Doubt – to waiver; seeing two ways; double-minded, unstable in all your ways.
  • Don’t look at Jesus and the wind and the wind and the waves at the same time!  (Peter)
  • Don’t consider two things!  Believe!  Don’t doubt or waiver! (Abraham & Sarah)
  • Don’t consider (dwell on, think on, talk on) the contradiction!  (His word)
  • You cannot speak of the negative reports without becoming double-minded.
  • Confusion is considering something you shouldn’t.  Don’t assume!  You must hear from God!  (Martha & Mary)

“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Mark 24:14
“Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls. And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.” Acts 2:41-43
  • Eph. 6: ***Stand in the whole armor with all prayer!!***
  1. Adoration (worship who He is)
  2. Confession (repent)
  3. Supplication (request)
  4. Intercession (others)
  5. Communion (intimacy)  Pray without ceasing— walk about with an attitude of prayer and praise.
  6. Thanksgiving (for what He’s done)
  7. Praise

(Original notes on the order of prayer from Benny Hinn and George Stephens etc… )

“Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.” Job 1:1

  • Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns — August 26, 2008:

Awake, arise and return from your distractions to ongoing fellowship with Me, says the Lord. Many things have demanded and even required your attention, and you have been seduced away from pure devotion to your God. Silence your flesh, and come away to spend time in My presence. I will encourage and strengthen your body, soul and spirit. Don’t delay; respond to My wooing.

Nehemiah 1:9 ‘If you return to Me, and keep My commandments and do them, though some of you were cast out to the farthest part of the heavens, yet I will gather them from there, and bring them to the place which I have chosen as a dwelling for My name.’

Today I decided to begin pulling from my journal in hopes that you will be blessed and find your place in the wait.

  • The Jews are being called to repentance. Jer. 7
  • What is this word saying to me, here in this place… the wait?

Hear the word of the Lord & worship! (I must hear your word(s) & respond in worship!)

Amend your ways & I will cause you to dwell in this place. (With a heart of true repentance, I will dwell in my place of promise.)

Trust not in lying words, for if you truly amend your ways & execute righteous judgment, then I will cause you to dwell in this place. (I must be aware of the lies of the enemy, changing my ways & executing righteous judgment, then, I will be brought out.)

Behold, trust not in lying words, they cannot profit! (I must be exhorted to keep this watchful eye, as the lies of the enemy will produce no fruit!)

Will you sin not & go into my place, (Shiloh: The Messiah, The Second Coming/Advent), where I am; I am to come? (I must keep a clean heart & press toward HIM, my promise!)

I spoke to you early in the AM & you heard not, I called & you answered not, (In those quiet hours where I failed to respond, I must hear! I must answer! I must be obedient to His voice!)

Therefore I will (execute my judgment & wrath) upon these, (those who turn back as w/Israel). (I must prepare for His judgment to come while remaining steadfast under His covering! May His mercy & grace be abound as move out…! I shall not turn back!)

Pray not, intercede not, for I will not hear you! (Does this not refer to those within & without who refuse to hear?? For me, to be careful to pray in this place, just as He says.)

Do they not provoke me to see my anger? I have called them to obedience & they will not hear! They went backward & not forward! (Let not any of this judgment fall upon me! I will hear; I will follow! May your abundant mercy be abound as I have fallen backward, & I must move FORWARD!)

You will speak & they will not hear! I will cause them to cease & the land be made desolate! (As w/Jeremiah, the weeping prophet, I will exhort some who will not hear & yet cont. to turn back. This will cause them to be unfruitful & desolate. Of such, I must be removed. I have to focus my efforts on producing fruit in this seemingly dry land! I must repent & recv. from the living water daily & become refreshed to the pouring in & the pouring out! I must again be yielded to your purpose, the higher call to where you are, Shiloh, I come!!)
