Christ speaks prophecy to the faithful brethren:
Rejoice, rejoice for the victory has come! A victory of peace and health and a great victory of being saved from all the wrath upon the evil doers. You are saved from the wrath for I will sustain you through every challenge my people. You are of me and in me and day by day I see each of you rising up to new heights of believing. Continue to rise and soar above all the pain which you will not experience, all the poverty that will pass by and not afflict you, and all the fear that the unbelieving will magnify into great strife and division.
Find your peace and unity in me as you cling to my words and unite with those who love me. There is a great divide coming between the believers and the natural men. As you stand up and speak, you will draw many to our Father. Some will chide you but so many more will believe the words you speak and they will join our family for all of eternity- so rejoice and speak.
Know that you are precious to me and we are both a family and a team. I am directing each of you to serve as I lead. Some have an hour or two to work with me each day- others can work every minute of the day toward our goals being accomplished. Do what you are called to my brethren. Your God and I have harmony and unity as we lead you. In sporting arenas there are local teams, state and national competitions and then a few very select individuals are chosen to compete at the international level. That’s you!
Put on your victor’s garland and wear the sash of being chosen by your Christ to lead others. Step forward and receive my assignments now, for you are each called out for mighty works. Claim your labels of victorious children of the almighty God and walk in newness of commitment with vigor and enthusiasm, for this is our hour of victory. Look not to the things of the world for they are deceptive and all will appear dark and lost in the coming days – but it is not so! Stand in my peace my brethren. Stand in grace and provision and be more than conquerors through my love and leading. The victory has been won, the rewards have been wrapped and sent. Do all I ask and receive all I have given.
Today’s Written Word
Romans 5:9,10
Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
Psalm 18:48 He delivereth me from mine enemies: yea, thou liftest me up above those that rise up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
II Timothy 1:7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
Ephesians 4:1-5
I therefore, the prisoner(dulos by choice, Paul) of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called,
With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;
Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
I Corinthians 9:24 Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain (win)
I Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
A Word of Encouragement
What a victorious celebration it will be when our Lord Jesus Christ comes to gather us together! We will be face to face and be rewarded with crowns and garlands to commemorate our loving service in the holy family. Until then, we are here in this world and living in the mist of natural men and women who do not yet know our Lord Christ or our mighty God. We are competing for souls to be saved from the wrath. What could be a more worthy endeavor, or a more important priority? Let’s make the most of the time we have to run to serve our Lord.
An Action Item
What part of our days or lives are dedicated to reaching out and speaking for Christ? Long pause? Many faithful Christian men and women are likely to answer with a pause and a blank stare. Let’s change that! Here are some easy ways to include sharing the good news in our busy lives. Find two or three people each day to say “God loves you!” to, and then ask if they know the Lord Jesus Christ. Even a brief ”God bless you”, can open doors to share more. If you are feeling enthusiastic, try scheduling a time once or twice each week to go out together with another believer, and speak of Christ. Our spiritual title as an ambassador for Christ is far more weighty and worthy than any activity for the body or soul.

A follow up from the saint who had shared about getting free from two prescription medications. After two weeks of slowly tapering off, she is completely free and with no side effects. Praise God for His wisdom and help in Christ Jesus name!
