This new data from Barna will blow your mind. Tell me your thoughts on 2023. I will share here (not on the video) what the Father is telling me about 2023! PROPHECY 2023 The Lord says: “Be careful to put on the whole armor of God in these days, for some have neglected to cover their heads in the day of battle and have let the enemy rob their HOPE. The night is coming upon the earth but you are not of the night, you are the children of the day and walk in the light. “But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the HOPE of salvation as a helmet.” (1 Thess 5:8) My desire is your full and complete salvation and deliverance. There are aspects of salvation I would have you explore and be thoroughly convinced of. Darkness will cover the earth but on YOU the light of my GLORY COMES. “For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the LORD will arise upon you, and his glory will be seen upon you.” (Isa 60:2) Consider well the operation of faith, hope and love, for in such a way does the bride “make herself ready”. For the glory that is to be revealed in my temple in the latter days is greater than the glory of the former days. This glory will be manifest in my temple - and YOU are the temple of the living God. You are My house. For the helmet of HOPE covers your THOUGHT-LIFE. Your thought-life must be protected so that your faith remains strong. Notice the relationship between HOPE and FAITH. “Faith is the substance of things HOPED FOR…” (Heb 11:1) If the enemy can get your hope he gets your faith. If he gets your head he gets your heart. Note the whole armor of God is needed for BOTH head and heart. The breastplate of RIGHTEOUSNESS covers the vulnerable organs, especially the heart. Keep yourself free from condemnation in your heart because unresolved guilt short-circuits your faith. Righteousness comes by repentance and faith in the blood. This cleanses your conscience from accusation. This is what protects your heart from condemnation. Your heart is where belief resides. Man believes with the heart. This is where the force of FAITH dwells. Guard your heart with all diligence and protect it from strife and bitterness. In this way you guard your faith. Faith is a powerful force but it works and is energized by LOVE. “Faith -worketh- (worketh is the word “energized” in Greek) by love” (Gal 5:6) Notice how these three work together: faith hope and love. 1. Love is the catalyst. 2. Hope gets the blueprint. 3. Faith is the substance that materializes what hope provided. The renewed mind is where the blueprint of hope is created. Everything you could ask or think of must be accompanied by an image. Casting down imaginations and bringing every thought into obedience frees up your mind to have the IMAGES and imaginations of God on the screen. Thus you are “renewed in the spirit of you mind” (Eph 4:23) and “transformed by the renewing of your mind.” (Romans 12:1-2) This renewing process is the discipline of study, meditation, and appropriation of the mind of Christ through the Word of God. This is building or forming a helmet of salvation, a divine protection over your thought life. It is also how you build and access an arsenal of divine ideas that have authority to be manifested on the earth. Did you catch all that? You should print that all out and meditate on it. I think I will. The Lord told me that “men’s hearts failing them” in the natural would be a sign of spiritual heart failure in many who are falling away from their faith. They fall because they gave up hope because of the increase of darkness. They lost faith. The Lord was telling me that as we press into a right understanding of what God is doing we shall be building layers of HOPE around our mind. This hope will furnish a blueprint for FAITH to materialize. That blueprint is like Noah’s ark. Build it and it will keep you thru the flood. The ark had three levels: 30,60,100 fold. “Faith is the substance of things hoped for.” (Romans 5:5) And equally important is LOVE because faith operates by love. In the last days lawlessness will cause lovelessness to be a major attack from h*ll in order to break down unity and the coming moves of God. “Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.” (Mt 24:12) But those who guard their minds and hearts will tap into the supernatural LOVE OF GOD. It won’t be your love or your faith it will be the Gods own powerful faith and love. Paul said, “I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved us and gave Himself for us.” (Gal 2:20) It’s Gods faith that will keep your faith alive. Likewise when your heart is faint, and you are vexed by the lawlessness of others, it is not your love, it’s Gods supernatural love kicking in by the indwelling Spirit. “Now HOPE does not disappoint, because the LOVE of God has been poured out in our hearts BY THE HOLY SPIRIT who was given to us.” (Ro 5:5) Notice how the love that is shed abroad from the Holy Spirit INSIDE US connects us to the HOPE that does not disappoint. What is hope? It is the confident expectation of good that will come out of the present momentary challenge or contradiction. It is a picture of the future that God paints on our imagination as we meditate upon what He wants to do. Hold onto that picture. It feeds the image to faith so that faith can make it materialize. Faith is the substance maker and materializer of things you hope for in your mind. It often materializes better than you can ask or think. But asking and thinking are part of the process. Guard your thoughts with the helmet of hope, the confident expectation that Gods will shall be done and you will be a winner and not a looser. An overcomer. One by one those strongholds are coming down by the authority of Christ. God is giving us greater revelation of salvation in these days. “How shall we escape, if we neglect so GREAT SALVATION…?” (Heb 2:3) Why is it called a GREAT salvation? Why is God taking us back to basics? Because within the scope of this salvation is a 30 fold and 60 fold and 100 fold dimension. Like Noah’s ark with three floors. PERHAPS My spiritual mother had a vision of the words “so great salvation” and saw three levels of attainment by the saints “working out” their salvation. In fact she saw the words: “Continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who is at work in you to both will and to do His good pleasure.” (Phil 2:12-13) 1. There are those who will be JUSTIFIED (30 fold) Christ is the Way TO heaven. These are saved as by fire. 2. There will be those who will be SANCTIFIED (60 fold) Christ is the way and TRUTH. Christ is working IN them. 3. There will be those who will be GLORIFIED (100 fold) Christ the way and the truth and the LIFE! Christ is working THRU them. They are manifesting Christ’s LIFE. Resurrection life. These would be the manifestation of the sons of God spoke of in Romans 8. The Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary says something interesting about this. “So great salvation” - embodied in Jesus, whose very name means "salvation," including not only deliverance from foes and from death, and the grant of temporal blessings (which the law promised to the obedient), but also grace of the Spirit, forgiveness of sins, and the promise of heaven, glory, and eternal life (Heb 2:10). “Take the helmet of salvation.”
