Rob is playing worshipful music on piano…
Pastor Ray…
While Rob was playing, I began to tune into the “notes,” what sounds he’s playing. I wasn’t thinking this way but I heard this and saw it in my heart. Something the Lord was saying to each one of us this morning. “I love you so much that I send My Son. I love you so much that I sent Him so you could be called ‘one who won.’” Then I heard Him say, “I painted a picture deep in each one of your hearts, a picture of full prosperity, a picture of health, a picture of wealth, a picture of change, a picture of things moving and changing and turning exactly the way I planned it for you. These things that are inside you, many have come out but many still must come through. I’ve painted it. I’ve put it in there. It’s full color. It’s My will. It’s My plan. I’ve given you My word on it. Trust in Me and it shall all come to pass.” Hallelujah!
Rob, why don’t you sing in the Holy Ghost… just start singing in other tongues…
Rob responds…
Pastor Ray…
It’s working out… it will work out… pieces or puzzles or parts lining up… there’s an alignment, a coming together… a moving forward… march… each part positioned from the start… coming out and through… it’s new… new times, days, ways, plans… it’s working out… each way, step, opportunity…
You know how Pastor Mac has always declared from Galatians, “If you don’t quit, you win.” We win when we just don’t quit. We don’t stop. We don’t pull over. We don’t park. We don’t go back. But we trust. Trust, trust, trust in Him on His Word and move forward. Contending. So I got a few scriptures that will help us in that way. Of course, there is strength in the Word. And we’re to be strong.
Psalm 31:24, “Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all you who hope in the Lord.” Hope, trust and rely in the Lord.
1st Corinthians 16:13, “Be on the alert. Stand firm in the faith. Be strong.”
Phil. 3:13, “I can do all things.” We can do all things. “through Christ which strengthens us.”
2nd Chron. 15:17, “But as for you, be strong. Do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.”
Ps. 28:7, “The Lord is our strength and our shield. My heart trusts in Him, therefore, our hearts greatly rejoices and with song we will praise the Lord.” We trust You and rely upon You, Lord. We look to Your Word.
Pro. 3:5–6, “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding, but in all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy path.” That’s what He’s doing right now. He directs our paths, showing us.
Isa. 26:4, “Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord himself is the Rock eternal.”
Ps. 112:6 –7, “Surely the righteous will never ever be shaken. They will be remembered forever. They will have no fear of bad news. Their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.”
Ps. 37:5, “Commit your way unto the Lord, trust Him and He will do it.”
There is nothing, there is no weapon from the enemy, there is no word from man that can cause us to get over in a worried state. We’re not worried. Worry has left the room! Gone! We’re set free from any care or anxiety or worries. Why should we worry?
Matt. 19:26, “But Jesus beheld them and said unto them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Jer. 32:17, “Sovereign Lord, you’ve made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm, nothing is too hard for You.”
Heb. 13:5 –6, “Keep your life free from the love of money and be content with what you have because God has said never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.” So we can say with confidence the Lord is our helper. We will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to us? Nothing. Nothing. Nothing is impossible with You, Lord. (praying in the Spirit)
Deut. 31:8, “The Lord himself goes before us and will be with us. He will never leave us nor forsake us. Do not be afraid and do not be discouraged.”
Ps. 55:22, “Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you.” We’re talking about not quitting. Not giving up. Not pulling over. Not getting in a ditch somewhere. Or stuck or held back. We’re talking about never, ever quitting or giving up. So we cast every care on You, Lord. You sustain us. You will never let the righteous be shaken.
1 Thess. “rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”
Heb. 11:6, “And without faith, it’s impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek Him.” Thank You, Father.
Phil. 1:6, “And I’m sure of this that he who began a good work in us will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”
Phil. 4:19, “God will meet all of our needs according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.”
Rom. 8:28, “We know that all things work together for good to them that love God.” (praying in the spirit)
Barb, would you take your mic. I feel I have a message in tongues and you’ll have the interpretation. I’m drawn to that right now. So whatever you hear, you speak it forth. Thank You, Lord. (Gives message in tongues.) Okay, go ahead, Barb.
Barb…
Embrace the day. Take hold of that which the Father has set before you. Receive those things that He has so freely given. Accept His goodness and faithfulness. And receive the working of the Holy Spirit in you by His grace.
Pastor Ray gives message in tongues again…
Barb…
And don’t be afraid to step out into those things that He’s shown you. For He’s given you that grace to walk in those things. Yes, the vision that He’s put inside of you will come to pass. Don’t wait. It’s time to step up and step out and walk in the fullness of His power. It’s now. It’s now. The time is now to take hold of the fullness of His call.
Thank You, Jesus.
One of the scriptures Ray read sparked something in me. A lot of the words he read puts the emphasis on God. God doing and God working. And a few days ago, He brought this picture to me. My mom is a gardener and she lives out on the coast. I would go out in the morning in her garden. She has these flowers called morning glories. If you go out at night, you’re not going to see their glory. Because they’re all closed up. But when you go out in the morning, they’re all opened up because of the sun. And it wasn’t something that was an effort for them. It wasn’t something they had to struggle to do. It just happened because that’s who they are. And as soon as the sun shines on them, they naturally respond to the sun. And He said that’s the way it should be with us. We make it so hard. “I got to believe, believe, believe… got to hold on.” He’s like, “No, just let Me be that sun that shines on you. And you just naturally open up and do and produce what is within you and who you are. It just comes out.” Why? Because He put it in your in the first place. It had nothing to do with you. The Word says He gave each one of us “the” measure of faith… not “a” measure of faith. Like Ray got a cup and Sue got a teaspoon. He gave everybody “the” measure of faith.
The other day I was thinking, “Lord, the Word says that all you need is a mustard seed of faith.” Now do you think God was real sneaky and said, “I’m not going to give them the measure which is a mustard seed. I’ll give them just below a mustard seed so they have to work really, really hard to make anything happen.” Absolutely not! He’s the God who is more than enough, right? So do you think the measure He gave us is more than a mustard seed? Yes! He created us to thrive in this life, to thrive He gave us what we needed. It was a gift. He put that faith in you as a gift so that you would succeed. And here we struggle and He says, “You know what? Arise! Shine! Here’s the light. Here’s my light. It’s come.” And the glory of the Lord is risen upon you. So all we need to do is turn our attention to Him. Okay! I’m here on the vine. I’m the morning glory. Here comes the sun! I’m opening up. I’m walking in the plan. Why? Because He put it in me and He’s going to bring it out. All I have to do is look to Him and trust Him to know that He cares for me, more than He cares about the birds of the air who He feeds. The flowers of the field, He said they don’t toil or spin. But they’re beautiful and clothed. So who are we to “Argggg.” Here comes the sun, “Argggg, I hope I can open up this morning… Argggg!” Let’s let Him do some work! Let Him do what He’s always wanted to do in us and through us by His Spirit. Not my might. Not by power, but by His Spirit. It’s time for you to take a rest. He’s been wanting you to get off of that hamster wheel and trust Him. Let Him shine on you and bring those things out in you. So you’re just walking in His power because He brought it to you. It’s not something you’re producing. It’s something He’s doing in you, that He put in you. You don’t have to make it happen.
Prayed…

Ray…
I think it’s urgent. I think it’s like 911 time. To be so separated all the time and not just step in to a little separation. But jump all the way in to complete and total separation. Whatever was trying to hold us back, broken by the blood of the Lamb… so we jump into it… all the way in… that is part of the land of more than enough…
Pastor Ray…
I’m remembering a prophecy that Pastor Lynne gave in 1993. The gist of it was if situations in your life are not changing, spend more time “with Me, saith the Lord.” If your finances aren’t changing, spend more time with Me, saith the Lord. If your marriage is not changing, spend more time with Me, saith the Lord. So we take that word from heaven, knowing that when we spend time in Your presence, Lord, we’re changed from one degree of glory to another.
