Words
of Light Upon the Face of Confusion, Error, and Disharmony
March

I am not alone in this pasture of life, but I am dwelling with
brethren and sisters of a common faith. I purpose to dwell with
them in unity and harmony. I am determined not to be drawn away
from the spirit of unity and peace, for God's spirit will not
strive with the disharmony of the hour. Those who do not desire
unity and peace shall look upon the hinder parts of the church
as it ascends out of this world. The hinder parts of the church
shall be seen by the sowers of discord and unruly believers,
for only the pure in heart shall be caught away. I am not beguiled
by the spirit of discord, which runs through the church. I cannot
run with the legs of the sowers of evil. Their legs are powered
by another spirit and not the spirit of truth.
The
Lord has freed me from bondage; therefore, I will not return
to the wallow and the vomit of my past life. I press toward
the mark before me. I can hit the mark of righteousness through
faith, which is in him. He has called me to overcome these things
before me. I will not look into the mouth of the devouring lions
of trouble, but I will look to the hills of salvation. My help
has come skipping on the mountains of life; therefore, I will
look not into the pit of trouble. Its belly will never be satisfied.
I will not be a part of its diet, but I choose to let it continue
to hunger for my life.
Jesus
has designed me to be a part of his purpose and his plan. I
will not lean to the understanding of my own mind. My mind is
a limited source of limited knowledge, but the mind of Christ
is the source of unlimited knowledge and ability. I will come
and see the great things which are being shown unto the Church
in this hour. He has brought me to the threshold of great victories.
The blinding light of God's glory has already caused my enemies
to retreat. I do not look at the dust of their heels, but I
purpose to look at this place of rest in God's presence where
joy is flowing as a river. The bed of this river is not seen,
for its bed is from the heavens. The bed of the river of life
has his rock of revelation as its bottom. Now I look no longer
at the dust from the heels of damnation. His finger and his
authority have judged already, and damnation shall be thrown
into the lake of fire.
The
spirit of error has gone around my life for the last few weeks.
I have gone in circles as I have watched the dust from its feet.
I shall be dizzy with confusion and trampled by the pressure
of its toronadic expression if I continue to look upon the display
of this spirit. I look away from this performance in the dark
and look at the finished work of Calvary. When I have looked
away again to his finished work, then shall I behold the benefits
of redemption and the activity of his word working on my behalf.
I
have not believed in vain. Jesus says, "Nay. You have not
believed in vain, but you have believed unto my righteousness
and unto my salvation." The door of the glorious victory
of his cross and his blood is being expressed this moment. I
rise up from the dust of error's heels, and I shout for the
glorious triumph of faith, for his faithfulness has overwhelmed
the dust of error and blown it away with the breath of life.
He does breathe upon me and grants me the true liberty of the
gospel and of salvation. I have bought the truth, and I will
not sell it.
Hebrews
10:22 - 23
Let
us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having
our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies
washed with pure water. Let
us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering;
(for he is faithful that promised;)
Ephesians
2:8-9
For
by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves:
it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast.
