Letters to Pearl – Volume 4

AUTHORITY

Pearl,

All authority in heaven and on Earth has been given to Me. I now give you My authority also. You have power to tread on scorpions and snakes, (He showed me this meant demons, not animals), and they will not hurt you.

What does this mean? The kingdom of heaven, as well as the earthly kingdoms, operate by levels of authority. In a family, the greatest or highest authority is given to the ruler of the household which is the husband. Each person falls under him in their various levels of authority and roles. The dogs have the lowest level of authority in the home.

When I called My people out of Egypt, I gave them My law. They became the keepers of the law. This is like the justice system in the United States of America. The courts keep, preserve, and enforce the law. The people keep – or observe – and obey the law. The court has the highest authority in the country, since it is the keeper and enforcer of the law. The court has the power to take away the freedom of the people when they break or transgress the law (Note: if we do not break the law, the justice system has no authority over us).

I gave My people, Israel, the law to keep, as well as obey. To the world, they were to teach and demonstrate the law. To the world, they were the highest authority, since they were the keepers of the law. Their righteousness was to be a shining light of the law.

When men saw the righteousness of keeping the law, they understood the hierarchy of power of the kingdom of God, and that the kingdom of Earth is to match it. Israel transgressed the law. They were like a corrupt court system. A court that is corrupt has been robbed of its authority. It no longer has the right to enforce the law. It no longer has any authority at all.

Who is the thief who stole the authority from Israel? Sin. Sin deprived men of the right to authority that was given to them by the law. Israel no longer could have authority to rule the nations. It could not enforce the law, because it was broken by their own sin. That is why I came first to the lost people of Israel. I restored the authority, that My people had lost, through the power of My Blood and forgiveness. I placed authority back into the hands of My people.

The Syrophoenician woman, who pleaded for the life of her child, knew the levels of authority. She understood that the law had been given to the children of Israel. She submitted to the position or level in which she was placed. She responded in faith when she answered that even the dogs under the table eat the crumbs.

The protection of the law is for everyone. The system Papa set in place is for the good of all. When the authority of the law is restored, peace reigns. I fulfilled the law. Then I died for you, who could not. I forgave you, and now I restore the authority of the law to you. I give you power to break the back of the enemy, who usurped the law and authority from you. The enemy, Satan, wants power and control. He has wanted power and control from the beginning. He wants Papa’s authority. Those who obey the law remain under the protection of the court – Papa. Those who break the law are no longer allowed to have even the smallest amount of power or level of authority that Papa gave them. Instead, Satan gets to have that authority which was intended for them.

When I walked the Earth, Satan continuously tried to take My authority from Me. He tried to get Me to sin. If I had sinned just once, all authority that Papa gave to Me – which was all authority – would have gone to Satan. You see, the stakes were quite high. You could say that Papa was putting all He had on Me. When I did not give in to direct temptation, Satan used those who belonged to him to try to take power over Me. Go back and read through many of the exchanges between the Pharisees and synagogue rulers and Me. Notice that they continuously tried to get Me to concede power to them. They wanted Me to acknowledge them to be the keepers of the law, which would confer authority to them. They broke the law, so they were illegitimate rulers. I would never recognize an illegitimate ruler over My people. I would never give authority to a usurper of power. Only those who submit to Papa’s legal hierarchy and authority can have power. Lawbreakers, who are not submitted to Papa and restored by My Blood, are illegitimate and have no authority.

Notice that Satan and his accomplices deceive the people by pretending to have authority and control. If you do not fall into the category of a law breaker, the court has no authority over you. If the court is illegitimate and corrupt, it may try to falsely accuse you, but ultimately you will be delivered, if you are innocent. Therefore, remain innocent at all times.

I give you power to tread or walk on principalities and powers (scorpions and serpents). – to bind them and loose those who were held captive. You have all right and authority to do this, because Papa’s hierarchy of authority remains unshaken, despite sin and Satan’s pretense. I fulfilled the law and provided atonement for the sinner to be restored in his level of authority. I also provided Truth for My people to see through the pretense or lies of the enemy and not let him usurp power and authority that does not rightfully or legally belong to him. Remember that sin gives Satan authority. Therefore, sweet Pearl, confess and repent of sin quickly, so that the authority I give to you cannot be taken away.

Now I want you to use the authority I gave to you. I want you to use it to trample the enemy under your feet. How to do this? Speak My Words of Truth. Speak My Love to those who have succumbed to lies. Bind and cast out the powers of darkness, who pretend to have the right to afflict My people. Fight the good fight of faith by: 1) submitting to My headship over you as your Husband :2) resisting the attempts of the enemy to control you; and then 3) letting those around you see him flee from you.

• James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

I came to Earth to remove those who usurped the authority of Papa from their illegitimate positions of power. I had all right to do this, given to Me from the law Papa put in place. That is why the Pharisees kept questioning My authority.

• Matt. 21:23 And when he entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching, and said, “By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?”

Now you have authority to do the same. Remove these impostors from power. Set My people free from their bondage.

(End note: He took me to this afterward:).

• Gen. 3:15 – the head rules the body. Jesus bruised or damaged Satan’s head (authority). We are to trample on the heads of snakes and scorpions.

A heel is what we walk on – the ground – Satan damaged the way we walk and the ground.  All of Genesis, Chapter 1 is about Papa’s supreme authority. He spoke and it was done. Then in verse 28, He gave some of His authority to mankind and said for us to take dominion. Note…even over the creeping things…serpents. (v. 15). Adam was to use his authority to keep/tend the garden. Note…Adam did not use his authority over the serpent.

Genesis 3…the curse…v. 16 Sorrow means sorrow that sin would be passed down into her kids and by many conceptions sin would multiply. Sorrow does not mean pain in labor….the pain is the knowledge of their sin coming through you. Many of us have had easy labors, and experienced pain from other sources much greater than childbirth or labor. Therefore, that interpretation is not valid, since great pain in labor is not universal. I had one of my children in 45 minutes without tons of pain. No big curse. The big curse and source of my sorrow is the sin in that child that came through me.

“Your desire shall be for your husband” – Husband should have been capitalized (no capitals or punctuation in the old Hebrew). My desire is for my real Husband, Jesus, to come and be the Hero in this situation, undoing what sin did. (Your Maker is your Husband…Isaiah). Many women do not desire their earthly husbands, so again, this interpretation does not reflect a universal truth. My Real Husband restores order and authority, and that is why I desire Him.

• Matt. 19:28 So Jesus said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
• Matt. 18:18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
• Matt. 16:17-19 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
• Matt.12:8 For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.
• Matt.12:38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered, saying, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from You.”
• Matt.10:5-8 These twelve Jesus sent out and commanded them, saying: “Do not go into the way of the Gentiles, and do not enter a city of the Samaritans. But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. And as you go, preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’ Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.”
• Matt. 9: 6-7 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”-then He said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” And he arose and departed to his house.
• Matt. 28:18-21 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
• Mark 7:26 The woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

NO CONDEMNATION

Pearl,
You are not condemned. A man who is condemned to serve in prison is a man who has broken the law and is now guilty. His guilt is his ticket into prison. No one is condemned to prison without proof or witness to guilt. The law is the standard of righteousness in My kingdom. When the law is broken, it then becomes, instead of a golden standard, a witness in a trial against someone who has been accused. The law itself is beautiful – a shining light of purity and holiness. The law broken then is a tool in the hand of an enemy to rightfully or legally take someone captive.

Who is this being that has a desire for prisoners? Satan. He knows that man’s flesh, before Papa gave the law, was corrupted by Adam’s first sin in the Garden of Eden. That was Satan’s way of gaining control over flesh and removing the authority Papa gave Adam. Then Satan used the law Papa gave as a standard of righteousness to claim eternal authority over each man, since each man’s flesh was corrupted, and, therefore, he broke the law. Now guilt gave Satan the right to hold the man in eternal prison, away from Papa. Disobedience took away man’s authority before the law. After the law, guilt from the disobedience, witnessed by the law, sentenced him to prison or captivity eternally. This is death.

A death sentence is never in place without a trial. The trial includes a suspect or one who is accused, an accuser (Satan), and an advocate or one who speaks on behalf of the accused. The accuser is called to bring the charge before the judge. Along with the charge, the accuser is to state the law that was broken. This law and the man’s own guilt bear witness against him in the kingdom of God. The sentence of captivity and prison is known by all.

In the Kingdom of God, eternal prison is called death. Therefore, the punishment is a death sentence. The accuser is confident in his right to hold the man captive before the trial even begins, because he himself knows the law very well. You might say he studied law. He knows how to use it for the sole purpose of taking prisoners.

Laws are good and for the good of all. They keep peace and fairness in the land. Life is predictable and manageable when there are laws. People are less likely to be hurt when there are laws. But in the hands of an evil ruler, laws can be used to remove freedom and take prisoners. If you know the laws well, you can use them as weapons of destruction. You can use them to accuse and condemn. They can be used against a population who already struggles with self-control, because they have already been handicapped by the curse of sin through their distant grandfather. Now you have a weak population who is made vulnerable to captivity by their own weakness, causing them to break laws.

It is as if a man is made blind by the foolish behavior of his elder brother (Adam). This blind man happened to be the recipient of a large gift. He was made wealthy and owned extensive property. An evil man comes to town and sees the beautiful property that the blind man owns. He wants to have the right to own that property himself. The blind man has no debt. He owes nothing to banks or anyone else. He is self-sufficient. He does not want or need to sell his property. The evil man knows that he must have a legal right to the blind man’s property, if he is going to obtain it. Therefore, the man studies the laws of the land. He searches for a law that the blind man may have broken. He carefully memorizes all the laws and then watches the blind man, waiting for an opportunity to accuse him. One day, the enemy sees the blind man walking down the street. The cars in the street nearly have an accident near the blind man and tires screech. The man twirls around and holds out his cane. In fear, self-protection and painful past memories of cruelties, the man begins yelling and berating the drivers. He curses at them and threatens to beat their cars. The accuser immediately has the blind man arrested. During the trial, the accuser reminds the judge that there is a law that states that no one is to yell loudly, curse, or swing objects in the air in a threatening manner. The man’s own guilt testifies against him, as he must admit he did these things in his weakness. Now the accuser has the right to see the man removed from his property and held captive. His right to freedom and authority over his belongings is removed. The evil man can now have access to the coveted property and authority.

The law, good for all, was used against the man, in order to obtain his gifts and authority. What can be done for the prisoner? A substitute can be found. A man who is in no danger of being accused, due to his own complete innocence, can come forward and volunteer to go to prison for the blind man. How can this be allowed? Papa made a law before the beginning of time – before the first transgression, before the laws were given to men. This law states that one man may die for the guilt of another. The blood of one will provide justice for all. The only requirement is that the substitute must not have broken any law himself.

Pearl, that is why Jesus had to live without making a single mistake of sinning or allowing Satan to have any authority over Him at all. Now, the evil man’s right to condemn and have the blind man incarcerated has been taken away. The blind man not only goes free, but he retains the authority and rights of citizenship that he was given as one born in that land. He was delivered from the witness of the law.

The blind man still has a problem. He is still weak and vulnerable to the same thing happening again. He is handicapped and has fears, insecurities, and memories of bad experiences that can lead him to react in ways that break the law. As much as he may intend to not lose his temper or lash out in fear and self-protection, he is vulnerable to doing it again, as long as he is alive in his current body. What can he do? Who can help him?

Pearl, I can. I cannot only be his substitute in death, but I can do his living for him as well. You see, if the blind man turns his life over to Me, I can be with him in his current body or state. The more control he gives to Me, the more I can live for him. I can do the driving. I can make the decisions and take over. When he relinquishes his will to My control, I can take complete control and he will die. Now this is not a death of imprisonment and separation from freedom. This is death that leads to Life. It is submission that leads to rest, peace, and freedom. All pressure of performance is removed from the blind man, since he is no longer driving himself. When he submits to My control, he resists the enemy and I do the work in him. I provide the strength.

I can guide a heart that has relinquished all control to Me in complete abandonment and trust. That is where miracles come from. That is real faith. Faith is letting go in humble submission to My Will. Faith includes total non-resistance. There is no “plan B.” In My kingdom, My Will reigns. My Will is done, not because I Am a bully and force My will upon everyone. My Will is done because I Am known. My goodness and loving kindness are known. My Love is pervasive. It is easy to trust someone you have seen and known for years, and their good character has been proven time and time again. It is more difficult to trust someone that you do not know.

Know Me, Pearl. The more you are acquainted with Me and seek intimacy with Me, the more you will know Me. The more you know Me, the more you trust Me. The more you trust Me, the more you are willing to submit to Me. The more you submit to Me under the most painful circumstances, the greater works I can do.

On the other hand, the more you spend time with Me, the more you know Me. The more you know Me, the more you know what Love and righteousness look like. The more you know what they look like, the more you see how unloving and unrighteous you have been. When you see Me, you see yourself in Truth. When you see the Truth about yourself, the less likely you are to depend on yourself and resist Me. Therefore, to gain a perspective that makes submission to Me easier, be willing for Me to hold a mirror up to your soul and show you what is inside. Then brokenness and submission can come on the heels of meekness and humility. Then My Love and faithfulness will be your boat that will carry you across the stormy seas. I love you, Pearl!

Law/Death Sentence/The Substitute/Submission/Faith

WAITING
(Holy Spirit).
My Pearl,
Waiting for Me is the highest, but most difficult form of submission and faith. It is completely unnatural or counter-intuitive for your flesh. Waiting on Me, despite the fact that every cell in your body and every emotion in your soul and every thought in your mind yearns and strains, is deep battle. Waiting on Me under great pressure is a high and holy calling from Papa. Others look at action, what appears to be great works and happenings, and think that the person working is accomplishing much for Papa’s kingdom. No, action is easy.

The agony of waiting is what produces Papa’s complete and perfect Will. The agony of waiting turns a willful and prideful spirit into a beautiful servant of Papa. Only the one who waits – really waits with all of the agony that comes with the waiting – is refined and conformed to the point of complete pliability in Papa’s Hand. The one who waits beyond the point of endurance is the one who is given Papa’s most significant work to do on Earth.

The servant who is straining the most to please his master to the point of agony and total humility is the servant that the master chooses to be lord over, not just his property, but also to be in charge of even his precious children. Waiting, when everything within you is begging, is the hottest of the refiner’s fire. Waiting is the final breaking of the most strong-willed and defiant soul.

Sometimes Papa will show you His desire for you. He will give you a taste of His blessing, Truth, purpose, and joy. Then He will seem to remove the blessing to just beyond your reach. You yearn, strain, and do everything you can to obtain the blessing. All your striving is but in vain. The blessing is there, but out of reach. You then understand that all things are for Papa’s appointed time. He says, “Not yet.” Now what to do? There are two choices: continue to strive by going outside Papa’s plan and force the satisfaction of your own will, or submit, humble yourself, deny yourself, remain faithful to what He has given you and where He has placed you, and steadfastly walk through each day.

My Pearl, you have yearnings that cause you great pressure and even agony of spirit. I understand. You have good company – Job, Joseph, Moses, Daniel, David, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Paul, the faithful servants throughout history all had to endure long, agonizing periods of waiting. What they eventually came to realize is that during their prolonged period of waiting, Papa was kneading and forming each of their spirits to conform more and more to the image of Jesus.

When a farmer plants a seed, nothing is visible for a long time. Some seeds seem to be dead, because they take so long to germinate. What Papa knows is that great energy is being used on the seed to change it and cause it to burst forth. If the farmer doubts this process and digs up the seed to see if he can “fix” it and hurry up the process, then he will ruin the work and never receive his harvest.

My Pearl, accept the wait. Accept the pressure of where you are, which is contrary to where you want to be. Endure the circumstances to the very end. You are not alone. Papa provided you with helpers. You have Me. I will bring you comfort and rest as you wait.

How will you receive My comfort and rest? By ceasing to fight against the wait. Relax. Accept. Submit. When you have stopped striving and accepted the wait, then you will see My Love and comfort in a variety of ways throughout each day. Striving blinds you to My gifts. Stop striving and you will sense My nearness much more. Accept Papa’s Will, so that the refining process can be unhindered. Wait. Submit to the wait. Accept the wait. Endure the wait.

Yes, it is okay to be honest with Me and pour out your heart. Yes, it is okay to come to Me and cry. Let your tears flow and I will catch them in My bottle. I do understand. I Am there with you, holding you. Cry, wait, cry, wait, endure, remain faithful, do the work in front of you, remain focused on Papa, Jesus, and Me. Remember all the others who waited. Remember Papa’s faithfulness to you in the past, look back over the past and see how much He has already changed you, endure, focus on thanksgiving, enjoy entering into worship, remain in the Light of Truth, consider others who are waiting in much more difficult circumstances and pray for them. Wait on Papa while He refines you. Wait, I say, on Papa. I love you, My Pearl!

Refining Fire/Appointed Time/Faithfulness

SPIRIT
(Holy Spirit).
My Pearl,
You are My child. Your spirit belongs to Me. You were born of Me. We are alike, you and I. No one can really touch or come near you. Your body is only the external, outer wall. It is not you. Your mind is only the sensor. It is not you. Your body and your mind are useful while you are on this Earth, but they are only the vehicle for your spirit. They are your transportation and a window to see the world through.

Your car and the windows of your house are not necessary for life. If you remained stationary, and you had no use for the happenings in the world, then you would still exist just fine. It is the same with your spirit. Your spirit is what really matters. It is your spirit where your life really belongs. You do not consist of your body or your mind. You are spirit. Recalibrate your awareness of what you are. You are spirit – not mind or body. Mind and body are just useful tools or instruments that are attached to your spirit. They can be used or left alone. They can be damaged, but that has no real, lasting effect for your spirit. Therefore, your primary focus should be on your spirit.

• Romans 8:9 But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His.
• John 6:63 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.
• 1 Corinthians 8:1 Now concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have knowledge.
• 1 Timothy 4:8 For bodily exercise profits a little, but godliness is profitable for all things, having promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come.

Now I Am Spirit also. You were born from Me. (John 3:6-8). You look like Me – not like your body or your mind. They do not look like Me. Only your spirit is like Me. So, if you wonder what I look like, consider your real self – your spirit. It is a mini-Me. I Am eternal. Your spirit – you – are eternal. I Am indestructible. I Am everywhere and therefore eternally, infinitely large. Your spirit is expandable. It can grow to a unlimited size as well. Consider your spirit to be like a bottomless pit – only there are no walls. This pit can change. It can be small and confined or grow to fill rooms and beyond. What makes you small and rigid? Eating the wrong food or starving yourself? A baby who does not receive food and water will die. His spirit will leave his body, because it can no longer house him. The body and mind cannot grow without external food and stimulation.

On the other hand, the baby is not body and mind. He is a spirit. His spirit grows or not, just like his body. If his spirit is nourished, then it will grow. If love, affection, care, and affirmation are completely withheld from the baby’s spirit, then it will either leave this world, or remain extremely small and become rigid. Even if that baby’s body is fed, the spirit will leave – causing the body to die – if it is not fed enough to exist.

My Pearl, always focus on your spirit. Consider your body and mind to be no more than they are – tools. They have a practical purpose, but that is all. When you assign importance to them, then your perception of who you are becomes distorted and inaccurate. The significance of your mind and body is limited. The significance of you – a spirit – is unlimited. Therefore, put your focus on what is significant only. Don’t spend your time and energy on your body and your mind. Rather, zero-in on you – a spirit. Focus on developing and nourishing the real you – a spirit.

How do you do this? The same way one cares for the body and mind. Your body must have food. It must have protection. So also the spirit. Your spirit needs Truth. It needs to feed on Truth. It also needs to be protected. Keep it away from darkness and the pollution of this world. Give it the light of Truth. Give it the fresh air of real freedom, acceptance, and love from Papa. Feed it the Living Water of My Love. That is real breast milk. Take you – your spirit – to Me for My milk of peace and Love. I will nourish your spirit and cause it to expand, become soft and pliable. Seek Me and My food.

Your spirit needs love, affection, and communication with Papa, Jesus, and Me. The more your spirit is in Our embrace, the more it grows. It not only grows in size, but also in strength. The more time a child spends in the arms of his parents, hearing their voices, feeling their gentle touch, sensing their love and affection, the stronger and more confident that child becomes. A child who receives this kind of nourishment is a child who is not vulnerable to fear. Fear in a spirit comes from lack of contact with Us. Fear is the result of not experiencing the great Love We have for you. Fear is the result of not seeing Our largeness and Our willingness to take care of you.

An orphan is one who does not receive personal care from loving parents. Any spirit can have an orphan experience, whether the bodies of his parents are alive on the Earth or not. The orphan spirit is a spirit who feels he is alone, no one cares or is looking out for him, and, therefore, he must handle everything all by himself. He feels that no one has his back. He feels that his life will only be stable and good, if he makes it stable and good. He, therefore, centers his life around the success of his existence. He believes he must carry all the load, fight against all who would prevent the success of his existence, and use every means to accomplish his goal of existence. Of course, he is exhausted, terrified, and never reaches his goal, because he can’t.

No one can exist without Me. If a spirit continues to be orphaned, not receiving nourishment from Me, it will grow smaller and more rigid. It will eventually become so blind and deaf that it will function like an animal, using only base instincts. It will live to feed the flesh – the body and the mind only. The spirit will almost cease. This is what we call the walking dead. These people look alive – they talk and function well in society – but no one is home, once you look past the body and the mind. Jesus reminded you to “Let the dead bury the dead.” If a person chooses to only nourish the body and the mind, forsaking fellowship and communion with Us, then he eventually becomes a walking dead person.

Jesus did not come for those who chose death. He came for those who choose life. The Great Physician came for those whose spirits may be sick due to injury, neglect, and malnourishment, but they still desire life. These spirits may be reduced to a very small size, but they still desire life.

My Pearl, you are a spirit. Each person Papa placed around you is also a spirit. Come to Us constantly to nourish your spirit. We will strengthen and expand your spirit. A strong spirit then can pick up a weak spirit, comfort it, and bring it to Us. Let Us use your spirit to minister nourishment to the weak spirit, until it grows enough to come to Us himself.
Remember, My Pearl, that small spirits are small and rigid, because they have been neglecting themselves and feeding only their bodies and minds. Papa calls the body and mind the flesh. It is all a part of you that received the curse of sin.

Your free will to choose can either cooperate or work on behalf of your flesh, or it can work for your spirit – the real you. Those who are living as if they consist only of body and mind keep using their free will for their flesh. Therefore, these people will have thick, dirty walls around their real selves, their spirits. When the body, mind, or flesh is fed and stimulated, it grows large and thick. On the outside it looks as if that is all the person consists of. They exhibit the works or fruit of the flesh. It is sometimes difficult to imagine that there is a spirit behind all that flesh. Don’t focus on the flesh and the evidence of the flesh, when you look at or consider the person. When Jesus looked at someone, He did not focus on their flesh – mind and body. He looked at them – their spirit.

The house someone lives in can give you lots of information about what type of person the owner is – rich or poor, neat or unkempt, one who conforms to the values of others, or one who enjoys his uniqueness, one who lives alone, or shares with many. Therefore, look at the housing of a spirit as a place for clues about that spirit, but remember that the housing is not the person.

The works of the flesh show where the person has been eating. Look past the food he feeds his flesh. Look past the size of the flesh. Look all the way inside the house, and remember that the person is actually a spirit, no matter how tiny that spirit has become. Now that you see the real person, understand the needs of that person. Follow My leading in dealing with that spirit. I know every spirit well. I know the needs. I know if the spirit wills to be fed with My Truth and Love, or not.

Live from your spirit. Keep your spirit – you – connected to Me at all times. I will feed you, and then lead you to the orphaned spirits and the spirits who chose to starve themselves, feed their flesh, and become small. I will show you which of these will open themselves up to My food. I will use you and together we will bottle-feed them. You will be a part of the process, until they fully choose to eat from Me. Then I will nourish them directly with My milk.

But you, My Pearl, are an ever-expanding spirit. You were born of Me and your spirit has been given full life in Me. Come to Me again and again for milk. Eventually you will learn how to remain attached and drink from Me constantly. I will expand your spirit to hold more and more of Papa, Jesus, and Me. Together, We will fill you, the room, the building, the neighborhood, and way beyond. I love you, My Pearl!

• Galatians 5:16-26 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
• But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
• John 3:6-8 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.

THE PAIN OF SIN
Pearl,
Sin hurts. It causes great pain. Because you are spirit, you can feel pain and heaviness -oppression – from just being around someone who is estranged from Me. The spirit of the rebellious person has even more access to your spirit, if they are in a covenanted relationship with you – like a spouse, child, family member, or even a boss or co-worker.

If you are in a relationship with someone who has aligned themselves with the enemy, then Satan has access to their spirits as a gun barrel. Remember that those who are not 100% for Me are against Me. Therefore, even people who are socially and Christian- culturally correct, but not truly one of Mine, can be used as a gun barrel. This is why it is so difficult for you in your situation.

When there is no blatant, obvious outward appearance of rebellion toward Me, coupled with the outward appearance of Christianity, and this added to manipulation by guilt through the letter of the law, you are confused, as well as enduring oppressive pain.

Pearl, do not feel you are being harsh or condemning or out of place, when you suspect someone who professes to be Mine really is not. Do not feel you are in the wrong to see them as an unsaved, heathen person. The Christian world likes to make things politically correct by calling them a “carnal Christian.” Pearl, those two words cannot be put together in My kingdom. In My kingdom, none of My sheep are carnal, which means, living apart from Me. You are either for Me or against Me. You cannot be on the fence or lukewarm. Hot and cold are the only two choices. You cannot be unstable, blown here and there like a leaf in the wind. You cannot be like a child in December – better be good for the next few weeks, so Santa will include you on his list of girls and boys who receive toys.

I Am not a culture. I Am not a to-do list. I Am not a subject in a school or a class. I Am not just an explanation of what you see around you. I Am not a force to be appeased. I Am not a set of rules with a police car around the corner, ready to chase you down. I Am not an angry storm. I Am not distracted and uncaring. I Am not limited by time. Pearl, you know Me. You know that I Am the Lover of your soul. You know that the ones who are a dark cloud in your life are being used by the enemy, because they have chosen to be lukewarm and not have intimacy with Me. They chose culture over Me. Therefore, understand what you are dealing with, and do not be confused or feel badly, because you cannot connect with them.

Sin hurts. Why did I allow you to be born into sin with sin all around you? Why did Papa send Lucifer to the Earth and allow him to have some limited powers? Because Papa had two goals. The first was to uncover who truly belonged to Us. Of course, We knew from the beginning who would choose to belong to Us, but you did not. We want you to exercise the power of your freedom to choose Us. The only way for the one I love to love Me back is to have the choice not to love Me. Therefore, Papa placed you in a world where you had the freedom to choose Me or other “lovers.” This means temptation had to be around you. This means Papa had to allow the rebellious one, Lucifer, to have the freedom to access your senses and entice you to choose other lovers. This means the ability to choose had to be given to Adam, Eve, and every person.

We do not want half of a heart. I want you to love Me so much that you are willing to fight to the death for Me. I want you to love Me so much that it takes great effort on your part to love Me. I want real, sacrificial Love – not casual love. Casual love is really only self-serving. I want to be the One you exert great energy for, because your desire for Me is the greatest desire of your heart.

Because I want to be the only Lover in your life, I offer you the choice of many lovers. Papa set this stage by allowing sin to pass from Adam all the way to you and your children. You not only have a wide selection of other lovers, like a wide selection of ice cream flavors at the ice cream shop, but now you also have an addiction to sweets, which motivates you to go to the shop. In order to find out yourself whether or not you value Me above all else, you are placed in a situation where choosing Me causes you pain and loss.

The person who is addicted to sugar is not only tempted by the many flavors of ice cream, the colors, the memory of the taste, the heat of the weather while feeling the coolness of the ice cream, the pleasurable experience in the store, the break from the monotony or pressures of life, but he or she also feel the physical pressure of an unmet need to appease the cry of the body for sugar.

You, Pearl, had to fight for Me. You had unmet needs that you sought relief for in others. You were enticed by the various flavors of other lovers – sin. Even now the desires of your flesh could grow, if you fed them. Those who want Me must fight to have Me. I will not share My wife with any other lover. I want you to fight for Me, just like I fought for you. Then Our Love for each other is known by you to be the real thing. It is a Love by supreme choice. It is a Love that is permanent – eternal. It is a Love that is not superficial, cultural, obligatory, or without proven sacrifice. This is the Love I have for you, Pearl.

I fought and died for you. In order for you to have real Love for Me, you must reciprocate. You have the choice to fight and die for Me. You have the choice to resist that addiction of self-fulfillment, refuse the flavors and enticements of other lovers, and fight your way into My Arms. This scenario is only possible where there is the opportunity and motivation to choose other lovers. Therefore, Papa allowed Satan to provide both the addiction to sin and the opportunities or flavors to choose from.

Notice how misery loves company. Those who chose to feed their addiction and not fight for Me, now fight against Me. They allow Satan to not only motivate and supply you with sin, but also to oppress and punish you for not siding with him. Why does Papa allow this?

Pearl, those who did not choose Me will always be against Me. They know their choice and they will defend their choice. The sin or other lovers they chose now have power and authority over them – much like sugar can gain power and authority over the physical body. When one gives in to his addiction to sugar or any other substance, his freedom to choose eventually loses power. His will becomes weaker each day. He becomes trapped by his addiction.

Whoever owns the substance someone is addicted to becomes that person’s master. You are training a Labrador puppy. These dogs are always hungry and desire food. Who owns the food? You do. Who controls the food? You do. Who supplies or withholds the food? You do. Therefore, you control the puppy, because her desire for food controls her.

Satan controls those who chose other lovers, because he controls the other lovers. He is ultimately the other lover. Therefore, he can compel those whom he controls to attack those he does not control. He knows that many will fight to have Me, but some will not fight very hard, or for very long. They did not want Me with all their hearts. Therefore, they will eventually give up the fight. Satan is not all-knowing. He does not know who will fight for Me to the death and who won’t. That is why he puts pressure on everyone who desires Me. He uses those he already owns as gun barrels. He uses the memory of your flesh addictions to add to the pressure. This process is ultimately for the good of Papa’s kingdom. This process separates the sheep from the goats, the clean from the unclean, the wheat from the tares. It produces pure hearts who proved that what they have for Me is pure, genuine love.

There is another benefit for you to be placed in such a difficult situation. Remember that you are in a certain age or kingdom right now. There are other ages to come. You, Pearl, as My wife, but also as Papa’s daughter, will be a ruler in other ages. You will need training to be a ruler. There is only a need for a ruler when people or spirits have a choice to rebel and fight each other. Battleground circumstances call for rulers. Papa set this situation up perfectly. You see, you are in training. You belong to Me and now you are being trained to rule. Who is being used by Papa to train you? Who is putting you in difficult circumstances, under pressure, so you can apply the principles I taught you? Papa uses Satan and his cohorts along with the memory of your former addictions to train you. Imagine that! The very enemy of your soul is being used to train you to fight against him!

You get to experience his typical strategies and learn how to defeat them every day. Of course, Holy Spirit, Papa, and I are with you to guide you and oversee the whole operation. We run the training ground. We use Satan and his forces to put you through the exercises and ever stronger battles to make you well-conditioned and savvy to the strategies used against My rulers.

You see, Pearl, because Papa sent Lucifer to Earth, allowed him to provide alternatives to Me, give you an addiction to overcome, and then battle against you, you now have become truly Mine, 100% Mine, and an effective Princess/ruler/warrior. No one can out-think Papa. His plan is powerful and beautiful. He made you exactly what you are: My beautiful wife, lover, warrior, Queen. I love you, Pearl!

THE WEAPONS OF OUR WARFARE

Pearl, My Pearl, Little Pearl,

The weapons of Our warfare are not carnal. This means the weapons you are to use to train to fight are not separate or away from Us. The weapons We have given you are to be used with Us, in Our Presence, with Our help.

Think of a small child who wants to build a tree house with his dad’s help. There comes a time when boards must be nailed to the tree. The child cannot use any tool other than an adult hammer to nail the board. Of course, the hammer is an adult tool. The dad must hold the boy’s hand around the handle and guide him to successfully drive the nail. The boy could not nail the board, using the tool provided, without the father’s help. Pearl, it is the same with the weapons We have provided for you to use. They are the only weapons that can actually be effective against the enemy of your flesh and the principalities and powers that come against you. All other weapons are useless.

The weapons We provide you are mighty for pulling down strongholds. This means that they have more than enough power necessary to break the power and uncover the deception of the enemy. Our weapons are always effective. They may take repeated use, but they will eventually overcome all evil forces. Think of Our weapons as battering rams against the door of a strong fort. It may take several rams before the door breaks apart, but it always will give way. The door cannot withstand the force of Our weapons. Our weapons are unique, in that they are only truly effective in the hands of soldiers who fully belong in Our military. Impostors may try to use Our weapons, but they won’t work very well, and the impostor eventually gives up and throws the weapon down.

Our weapons are only effective in the hands of those who signed up and fully committed to be in Our military. As a member, you are chosen to inherit the weapons and participate in the administration of strategy. As a soldier, you may use the weapons you inherit, but you are never to use them alone. You also are never to fight or engage the enemy alone.

The rules for successful engagement are as follows:

1. Never fight without Us. We are always to be with you in every battle. Do not attempt to enter into battle without Our Presence. This means you are to remain connected with Us at all times.

2. Never go into battle with doubt concerning Our Love for you. Our Love is your armor. Every piece or armor consists of one element – Our Love. Therefore, you must soak in Our Love every day. Rehearse the knowledge of Our Love for you constantly. See yourself as you truly are . . . Our beloved child that We never stop looking at with eyes of Love.

3. Fight in faith. Know that We stand with you and back you up every step of the way. We did not put you in the line of fire and then leave you alone. We are in charge of the entire battlefield and We are with you. Our Hand is around yours, as you grasp and use your weapon.

4. Remain calm and quiet. Battles are always noisy. Sometimes they are only noisy within your mind. Other times they are noisy both in your mind and on the outside. Remain quiet and calm, so you can hear Our Voice. Remain quiet and calm, so you can sense Our Presence. Remain quiet and calm, so you can focus on Our Love for you. Remain quiet and calm, so that your eyes will see what is truly happening. Remain quiet and calm at all times.

5. Wait. Waiting is a part of every battle. You must wait for Our timing. Then you fire the weapon We provide. Then wait again. If We instruct you, then you fire again. Then wait. This process may have to be repeated many times over.

6. Remember that you are a soldier in Our military. That means you have been given permission – authority – to engage the enemy, using all Our weapons. Others who are not in Our military do not have permission or authority to use Our weapon. That requires authorization.

Now Pearl, the weapons you are to use are not weapons you can see or touch. These weapons are too powerful to handle with your hands. You are spirit and the enemy also is spirit. Physical weapons are of no use in this war. No, the weapons We give to you are spiritual weapons for a spiritual battle. We give you a variety of weapons to choose from. Each one is powerful if used alone. But Pearl, if you combine the weapons, then you are guaranteed success.

What are the weapons? They are weapons built by Holy Spirit. Only Holy Spirit can craft these powerful forces. Holy Spirit knows all spirits. Therefore, each weapon is expertly designed for warfare against evil or rebellious spirits. Holy Spirit’s weapons serve double-duty. When you use them, they not only will neutralize the enemy, but they will also serve to neutralize the desires of your flesh – the part of you that opposes righteousness.

Every day you will engage either the enemy or your flesh. Choose one or more of these weapons to use. Ask Us and We will guide you as you make your choice from among the best weapons available in all the history of creation. Here is the list of Holy Spirit’s weapons: love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

Don’t be fooled, Pearl. These weapons may look like they are as weak as a lamb, but remember that the sacrifice of the Lamb is what made Jesus the Lion of Judah. Satan wants you to believe that no one can defeat any foe with kindness. Do not believe him. Remember that this is a fight of faith. Use your trust in Us, Our Wisdom, Our Strength, Our Love for you. These weapons are the only ones that will win, which is why the enemy of your soul wants you to doubt their effectiveness. Don’t listen to your flesh that would agree with him. Your flesh does not want to use these weapons. Your flesh wants carnal weapons – weapons that do not come from Holy Spirit, but come from the rebellious spirit. You cannot use the weapons the enemy forged against him. They won’t work. Only Holy Spirit’s weapons will be effective against the enemy of your soul.

Study Holy Spirit’s weapons. Practice using them when you are not in the thick of a battle. Practice them with your fellow soldiers. Keep them with you in all situations. Ask Holy Spirit to teach you all about each weapon.

Finally, use each weapon in the authority of the Name that is above all names – Jesus. For example, use the weapon of patience in the Name, by the Name, and for the Name. Cover yourself and operate in the Name of the victorious One Who has all authority and power given to Him – Jesus. No name has greater power and authority. Fight in His Name and under His banner.

Finally, Pearl, remember love. No force on earth is greater than love. Love, in the Name and authority of Jesus, overcomes all evil. Love conquers all. It was Our Love for you that rescued you. Now We give you Love to conquer, trample the works of the enemy, and rescue prisoners. The power and authority given to you by Jesus’ Blood, coupled with Love, is undefeatable. Use them in faith. Remember that you are not alone. We go with you into battle. We always win. The battle belongs ultimately to Us. We will fight for you, as you stand and use the weapons. It is Our power that makes them effective. After you have used the weapons, stand. Stand, wait, watch. Stand, wait, watch. Then you will see Who is victorious. We love you, sweet Pearl.

Battering Ram of Love/True Soldiers/Rules of Warfare/Weapons of the Holy Spirit /Defeating the Enemy/Using Your Authority

WE WANT YOUR INVOLVEMENT
(Holy Spirit).
My Pearl,
Follow My instructions. Obedience – complete, detailed obedience is the key. Without complete obedience on your part, My power cannot be released in you and through you. Papa established a system that includes using you to accomplish His Will. Yes, He can manage everything alone just fine. After all, He made the world and everything in it without your involvement. Jesus rescued you from eternal separation from Us all by Himself. We do not have to have your involvement in Our work, Pearl. The fact is, We want your involvement. You see My child, when you are involved in Our work, you are blessed. When We use you, not only do hearts and circumstances change, but you change. Each time you submit to Us and allow Us to use you, some of your flesh or desires of self die by being denied. Therefore, you, as well as others, benefit from your involvement in Our work.

My Pearl, your involvement in Our work revolves around your willingness in several areas:

1. Remaining in your spirit. Your spirit is where your temple is. That is Our home and meeting place with you. How can you know what to do, if you do not remain in your spirit/temple and communicate with Us? The more time you spend in your spirit with Us, the more you get to know Us and Our plans. When you interact with someone – say a co-worker- on a daily basis, you get to know that person. You become familiar with his plans and desires. You learn his speech patterns and ways of communicating. It is the same for your relationship with Us. In order for you to participate in Our plans, you must remain within your spirit and communicate with Us constantly. You will know when you hear someone speak on Our behalf whether or not it is from Us, because you will say, just as you have said before in reference to others you know well, “That sounds just like Him.”

2. Submit. Give up your own plans and goals. Relinquish control of your personal boundaries. Do not limit how much you are willing to be involved in Our Will. Full obedience means there are no…and I mean no…limits on what you are willing to do for Us. Jonah had limits to his obedience. Long before I told him to call the people of Nineveh to repentance, Jonah had said he would cooperate with Us and do whatever We asked. What Jonah did not know was that he had unforgiveness in his heart toward the people of Nineveh. He resented their sin, which hurt him and those he knew. Their violence and cruelty was world-renown.

Jonah had a limit or boundary he would not cross. His sense or desire for justice, fairness, and equity overrode his desire to obey Us and participate in Our work. We knew this was in Jonah’s heart, even when he was not aware of it. Therefore, Jonah was the man We chose for the job of restoring the people of Nineveh to Us. We asked him to submit to the point of countering his natural desires for justice. You see, My girl, obedience is always counter-intuitive. We will ask you to go against your natural inclination time and time again. That is why obedience will not only bless others (in Jonah’s case, many people were restored to Me), but it will also change you to look more and more like Jesus.

3. Live life with Us from a counter-intuitive perspective. You have something in common with the animals. Papa gave you some instincts. You have natural reactions to certain stimuli. When you are afraid, it is not an act of faith or trust in Us to run. When you are hungry, it is not a sacrifice to eat. When you see injustice, it is not painful to see the law-breaker exposed and punished. These natural tendencies are a part of the functions of your mind and body.

What we ask of you is not natural. We ask for the supernatural. That’s right, My Pearl. We ask you to perform the supernatural. What is the supernatural? It is simply doing something that is not natural or, in other words, against your nature. For example, when someone is angry, yelling, and hostile toward you and accusing you, your nature wants to do one or more of the following: be afraid, back away, run, return anger for anger, yell, defend yourself, return accusations. Those responses come easily to you, because they are intuitive or a part of your nature.

When someone is doing what comes naturally to him which causes you pain, he is being used by the enemy. He is the gun barrel. His nature is cooperating with darkness. This becomes more and more natural for someone who does not live in his spirit with My Presence. You can say he is living by his instincts, like an animal.

A dog has instincts. When someone rings the doorbell, the dog intuitively runs to the door and barks. If a baby cries, the dog will run to the baby. If someone is cooking and pouring food into a nearby dish, the dog will run to the dish. If a dog sees a squirrel, he will stop what he is doing and chase the squirrel. All these behaviors are displaying the fact that the dog is led by instinct. He intuitively knows that he wants to catch that squirrel. He follows his desire, no matter what is going on.

To train a dog to be of great use to a blind or handicapped person, the trainer must first be aware of the dog’s instincts. Next, the trainer must teach the dog to disobey his nature, and take on a new nature which is to help his handicapped owner. The dog must learn to do what is counter-intuitive. Instead of running to the door when the bell rings, he must go beyond his nature and run alert his master. When the dog hears a baby cry, he does the opposite his flesh wants to do and gets his owner instead. If food is near by, the dog must overcome temptation and continue helping his owner. When the dog is helping a blind person cross the street, he must never give in to his natural inclination to chase a nearby squirrel. A reliable dog for a handicapped person must operate outside his own nature. He must operate in the supernatural. He must be counter-intuitive.

For you, My Pearl, the weapons I made work very well when you are in situations where it feels uncomfortable to your nature to use them. If someone is angry and accusing, choose to go against your instinct and use the weapon of kindness. If someone is hostile toward you, use the weapon of Love. If it seems that your circumstances are unbearable, use the weapons of faith and long-suffering. In all circumstances, do everything in the Name and authority of Jesus. In all circumstances, recognize that We are also doing a great work, deep within you. We are making you to be more and more like Jesus. That is why in all circumstances you are to be thankful to Papa for the hardship. He is using the situation to change you, as well as train you to be an effective ruler for the ages to come. So when hardship comes, the last but not the least step is #4.

4. Recognize that this is the time to be grateful. We are on the move. Our Hand is at work. We are working out Our Will in you, which is very much for your good, while We are working Our Will in others. When things are rough, you do not have to jump up and down with excitement, but you can smile within your spirit – Our home – and be thankful for the weapons you have and for knowing that together, You, Jesus, Papa, and I are working in the supernatural. It is in the realm of the supernatural where miracles, signs, and wonders begin. I love you, My Pearl!

MY QUEEN
Pearl,
You are My Queen. My Queen shares in My joys and My sorrow. My Queen lives the fullness of My Life. Your life is not limited to My joys. Your life includes My sufferings as well. No one but My Queen knows My most intimate living. We are to know each other and share in each other’s living to the fullest extent. The more we experience the joys and the pain of life together, the more intimate we become.

You are a comfort to Me, My Queen. As I walk the streets and know the lives and hearts of each person, see the sin, shame, and rebellion of each soul, know their allegiance with the enemy, and the trap they are caught in, I bear the weight of suffering. As I sit in the churches and watch My sheep enter with heavy loads on their backs, and leave after the service without having their burdens lifted, I grieve. When I watch families of sheep become lured away from Papa by the things of the world, distracted by busyness, each one wrapped in his own concerns, then I Am in pain. When I watch as selfishness, pride, and fear have their way and separate bonds of unity among My people, I hurt.

Pearl, will you walk the roads of pain with Me? Will you enter the dark doors of those who have made their home a home of sorrow, shame, and harshness? Will you come with Me to dirty, contaminated places where you feel uncomfortable? Will you enter into dark, ugly, war-torn buildings that house angry, hostile, and oppressed souls? Pearl, to know Me is to know all of Me. I Am everywhere. I Am not limited to existing only in the high places of peace and light. I also reign over the dark corners of the earth. I reign over the places that are filled with pain and confusion. These particular places in My realm are where I desire to live. Will you live there with Me?

Do not be confused. In My kingdom, just as there are no confines of time, there are also no limits of space. Pearl, you and I can live in Our beautiful Secret Place, filled with love, purity, and beauty, while traveling the dark places outside Our Secret Place at the same time. You and I can exist in two realms or kingdoms at the same time. We are not limited by physical boundaries. We are like those who have a home in a busy, polluted city where our work is, and also have a home at the beach or mountains. The difference is that you and I can reside in both homes at the same time. I know that sounds strange, but life with Me has no limits. Life with Me can be bitter and sweet at the same time.

When you are in a house of pain and surrounded by hostile strangers, you will sense My nearness and know that I see what you see. I Am there experiencing all that you are and more. I Am there in the confusion and know the oppression. As you walk those dark halls and serve those in the rooms of suffering, I Am with you. I Am not just beside you . . . I Am in you.

As you endure and persevere in that place, You become Me and I become your hands, feet, and voice. As you return holiness for vileness, peace for anxiety, love for hostility, forgiveness for sin, patience for persecution, I Am ministering Life and Truth to the souls in that place. You may only see the circumstances from your vantage point, but remember that I Am working through you behind the circumstances. You may be positioned in front of an angry, fearful soul and be working patiently with him while he oppresses you, but at the same time I Am using Holy Spirit’s fruit in you to defeat the strongholds of the enemy’s trap deep within that soul.

In the homes of darkness, if you will follow My lead and use the weapons Holy Spirit provided, together, you in the outer realm, Me in the inner realm, we will wage war against darkness and overcome the enemy. Stand, My Queen. Stand where I place you and use the fruit of the Holy Spirit repeatedly. Share in the sufferings of the battle, as together you and I rescue My lost sheep. Together, you and I will bring life to the dry churches, who have been trapped in deserts of estrangement from Papa and Holy Spirit. Together, you and I will face the pride and selfishness that divided brothers, with the weapons of longsuffering and patience while displaying forgiveness.

You and I will be hurt in this work, Pearl. It will be an uncomfortable place to live. There will be days when you think you can no longer endure living a life of suffering with Me. Our pain will be intense. Just remember, My Queen, you will not bear My cross alone. I Am with you, around you, and in you. I will carry Our cross together with you. This way, you will know the taste of bitterness along with the taste of sweet. You will experience all of the fullness of My life. You will know My joys and My sorrows. When you go through both the highs and the lows with Me, you will understand. You will begin to see life as I see it. You will feel what I feel, know what I know, and desire to do what I do. Your inner being will be transformed. We will begin to look alike. Your face will change to look like My face. Your hands will feel like Mine to the person who is receiving their loving ministry. Your voice will sound like Mine to the hungry soul that needs to hear Truth.

Pearl, will you be My Queen of suffering, as well as joy? Will you be My Queen of pain and sorrow, as well as peace and beauty? I hand you the weapons Holy Spirit made. Let’s take them to the dark, war-torn places and use them to tear down the strongholds of dark attitudes, resistance, rebellion, anger, pride, fear, and hatred. Let’s be willing to suffer loss, injury, and injustice together, as we continue to use each weapon.

Remember that you and I are outside of time. Therefore, what may seem to be a long road ahead that continues on for years will in reality pass quickly outside of time. The weeks, months, and years melt away. Therefore, do not be concerned with how long you and I remain in Our home of suffering. Earth time may look long, but it melts like a piece of ice on a hot summer day. Time is meaningless in the dark places. Only be concerned with the present.

Remember that you and I are not limited in homes, just like we are not limited by time. We can live in Our pleasant home of peace, beauty, and joy – Our Secret Garden – while We are in Our home of suffering . . . both homes at the same time. We can enjoy the sweet with the bitter. We have an oasis in the desert. We have a shelter of Love in the middle of a battleground of hostility. We have comfort and peace in a place of pain. Pearl, again I say, you are not limited to one home or the other. You and I will stay in both homes – one of Paradise and one of pain – at the same time, in the same earthly location. We will use the weapons of love against the enemy, while We enjoy the wine of Our Love together in Our Secret Place. We will make love and make war at the same time!

I love you, My Queen, My Pearl of Great Price.

DETACH
Pearl,
I Am going to use you. I will use you to the extent you are willing to die for Me. I will use you to the extent you are willing to relinquish control and turn everything over to Me. Do you enjoy your house and your surroundings? Let them go. Go ahead and let go of them now. Get used to the idea that you won’t always have them. Do not continue to nest or set down roots where you are. Do not build sympathetic, emotional memories in your house or any other place.

Do you love the like-minded friends I have given you? Let them go. Continue to minister to others as I lead you, but do not form such strong emotional or soul attachments to them. Everything in your life is temporary, whether you belong to Me or not. But Pearl, you are Mine. I want to own you and your attention completely. All else is to fade away. Therefore, no longer have attachments to people and things around you. This is not contradictory to My command to love others and serve them. Actually, you will be better equipped to love and serve them with a pure Love that is unhindered by any of your own self-centered enjoyment or need of them.

Rather, Darling Pearl, come away with Me. Let all things go – they do not being in Our world, Our garden, Our relationship. I Am calling you to put down roots only in Me. Only be sentimental about Me. Only enjoy and long for My comfort. Only desire My Voice and My Companionship. I Am a jealous Husband. Also, the more you love only Me, the less the enemy can hurt or manipulate you. If you love only Me, then how can someone else offend you? What can they take away from you that really matters, if your heart is totally wrapped up in Me? No one can ever take Me from you. Therefore, let the storms rage and demolish all. It matters not. We – you and I – will continue on unharmed and even more rich in Our love, intimacy, and Oneness.

Let them take even inanimate things from you, My Darling. Don’t care about appearance, reputation, honor, or the opinions of others. Don’t hold on to physical health. Let go of the future and your security. Don’t depend on any of these. They do not serve any purpose in My kingdom. They do not contribute to Our Love for each other. Therefore, do not care about them at all. Let them go. The enemy cannot distract you or pull you away from Me using those things, if you no longer care about them. Enticements lose their power to draw you away, when they lose their appeal. Turn your heart away from them and discard them.

Attach yourself to Me alone. Just you and Me. Oneness. Unity. No interference. No distractions. No worries about those things to enter your mind. No one and nothing is to come into Our inner chamber. When We attach to each other, nothing is to be between Us. I love you, Sweet Pearl. I want you all to Myself. You also can have Me all to yourself. Just let go of everything and everyone else in your heart.

I Am large. I will fill your being with My Presence. There is to be no room left for anyone or anything else. Detach from this world and attach to Me. Then Our Love will grow so strong you will hardly stand it. Then you and I can go in places that you never would have been able to visit before. Then you and I can minister to lost pearls. Then you and I can seek and save the lost, bind up the wounds of the brokenhearted, and set the prisoners free.

When missionaries begin to prepare for their ministry, the first thing they do is sell and give all their belongings away. They sell their house and car. They donate furniture and household items. Next, they say good bye to friends and family. They give their money to purchase travel tickets and prepare for their assignment. What have they done? They have detached themselves from the things of Earth, and attached themselves to Me and Our Life together. I am not asking you to sell items, but I do ask you to let go of them in your heart, so when the time comes for those things and people to leave, you won’t skip a heartbeat. You will have detached to the point that your peace with Me will remain undisturbed. Our union will remain unbroken.

I have great plans for Us, My Pearl. These plans do not include your earthly attachments. Make your home with Me. Build memories of Our time together. Decorate your new Home – Our Secret Place. Decorate it with Our joy. See only My face on the walls. I will be the light and colors. I will be your comfy chair and warm bed. I will be your companion, your future, and your security. I Am all you need and more than you can imagine. My delights cannot be matched on Earth. The more you turn from things of earth, the more of My delights you will know. I Am your peace. You won’t miss a thing. Will you give yourself wholly to Me? I love you, Hephzibah, Pearl!

Then Jesus said to His disciples, “Assuredly, I say to you that it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

Stronger Love/Preparation For The Future

HEPZIBAH IN WHOM IS MY DELIGHT

Jesus, please teach me what it is to be Your Queen. I have an idea of what earthly queens are like, but I want you to teach me how to be Your queen.

Pearl,
My Queen is nothing like earthly queens or rulers or those in authority with elevated social status. My Queen is not pampered and self-absorbed. My Queen does not have people who are hired to make her look good or sound good. No, Pearl, My Queen gets her cue from Me. She is a reflection of Me. My Queen does not have servants. My Queen is a servant. She loves Me and, therefore, she loves My people. She follows Me, as I go about rescuing lost sheep and healing those who are injured. She always watches Me and goes only where I send her. She does not go ahead of Me. Just as I did only what I saw My Father do, she only does what she sees Me do. She only ministers to those whom I send to her.

My Queen is like Holy Spirit. She is quiet and calm at all times. The kingdom is frequently under attack, but My Queen does not fret. She knows that she is married to the Lion of Judah. She knows My Love for her. She knows My authority. Therefore, she has learned to wait on Me and remain at peace.

My Queen shares My Name and My authority. She knows when and how to use them, and she does so with all boldness and confidence. My Queen has learned from Holy Spirit to be a comforter. She loves to comfort those who mourn and suffer loss.

My Queen is always content. My Queen never complains. She is content with sharing in My work and suffering. She knows that, in the sharing of My Life, We grow closer together, and that is what she desires above all else. My Queen eats at the table of My Presence. She feasts on My Love. She never tastes the dainty foods of other lovers. She wants Me and lives off My Love for her. She drinks from My fountain alone. No other fountain will satisfy her.

My Queen keeps herself beautiful by keeping her heart pure. She goes to Holy Spirit time and again for grooming. My Queen is happy when she is serving. She does not need to be in the spotlight. She saves herself for My Eyes and My approval alone.

My Queen does not seek to avoid criticism. She knows that My enemies are her enemies. She knows that those who hate Me also hate her. She does not listen to their accusations, or let them divert her attention from Me and Our work.

No one is too lowly or too dirty for My Queen to serve. She prefers to serve those who need her help the most. Her only rule is that she serve those I tell her to serve. She listens to Me and not to her own reason.

My Queen loves wisdom from Holy Spirit. She does not indulge in knowledge that puffs up and serves no purpose in My kingdom. My Queen models forgiveness and mercy. She focuses on Truth and Love at all times. My Queen loves the light and not the darkness. Only blessings and Truth come out of her lovely mouth. She uses her mouth to bless and give life to others. My Queen talks about Me. She wants all to know Me, so she promotes My Name wherever she goes. She is so proud of Me that she talks about Me freely.

My Queen is not concerned about the future. She knows that Papa holds all things in His Hands and, therefore, she is secure and happy all the time. No one can ever convince My Queen that she is not My Queen. She knows Me and My Love for her. She knows that I made a vow to take her as My bride, and I never break My vows. She knows that she is My delight and gift from Papa. She knows that I treasure her and will always cover and protect her. She knows that My Arms are hers in which to rest. She knows that she has My full attention at all times. She knows that My Eyes are full of Love for her and she is thrilled down to her toes.

You are My Hephzibah, Pearl.

• Isaiah 62:4 No longer will they call you Deserted, or name your land Desolate. But you will be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah; for the Lord will take delight in you, and your land will be married.

His Queen/ Characteristics/Work

THE INTERIOR HOLY OF HOLIES (Part One).
Our Pearl,
We want your life to be in Us. What does that mean? How can you be “in Us?” In Us means in Our kingdom, in Our Presence, and in fellowship with Us. It looks like being in constant communication with Us, while snuggling together in peace and tranquility. How do you live in a constant state of intimate companionship with Us? How do you remain constantly in Our kingdom while on Earth at the same time? How can you live in Our Secret Garden while functioning in human society? How can you remain in your interior with Us without ever leaving?

When you are seeking interior life with Us, you must realize that you are entering a different and new world. It is an entire world or kingdom and nothing like the world on earth. The inner world with Us is Our kingdom. It belongs entirely to Us and is ruled entirely by Us. No one can enter this kingdom without Our permission. You must be cleansed before you can enter into Our true kingdom. Others may think they have access, but they have only found a counterfeit kingdom of strangers.

In Our kingdom, the principles of operation are quite different from the principles or methods of operation you use on Earth. On Earth, the methods you use to function won’t work in the interior world of Our kingdom. Actually, they will only hamper you or impede your progress, as you seek to enter through the gates.

Your interior has several names. This is the inner chamber or the Holy of Holies of the temple I built within you. Your body became the exterior of Our temple when you first gave yourself to Us. Just as there were different areas which served different purposes in the physical temple of the Hebrews, as described in the Old Testament, there are different areas of My temple that We reproduced within you currently today.

The original or very first temple which I built was the Garden of Eden. A temple is a place where I meet with and have intimate fellowship with those We love and who love Us. Therefore, the Garden of Eden was Our very first temple. There We met with Adam and Eve. When We removed them from the garden, We met with them wherever they built an altar of sacrifice.

When We formed the nation of Israel, We designed a building that physically housed Our Presence. The Hebrews traveled there to meet with Us. The building had different rooms that served various purposes. Each area took them from one level of intimacy with Us to another. The Holy of Holies was the inner chamber reserved for the most intimate fellowship and experience or “knowing” of Us at that time.

Your temple can be compared to your house. Many homes have rooms that are for various levels of relational intimacy. A man and a woman who have entered into the covenant of marriage and live together in their house have freedom to be in any room of that house, no matter what level of intimacy that room requires. The yard and porch are areas of the house where those who are visitors and unmet strangers may come. There, the outsiders can speak with the couple and state their business. If the couple gives the outsiders permission, then they may enter into one of the gathering rooms. Only friends are given permission to enter. Enemies are not allowed into a gathering room. Friends of varying degrees of intimacy may come into the gathering room. There they can enjoy a certain level of fellowship and even share a meal together. They can remain surface-level acquaintances or enter into a deeper relationship in the gathering room.

Those who have a deeper level of intimacy with the owner of the house are invited into more inner rooms than others. They are allowed into the kitchen and more private gathering areas. In the kitchen, the intimate friends can participate in the inner work of the household. There the friends and family members share bonds of deeper fellowship, while they work together for a common cause. The work may be lengthy and vigorous, but the joy of their intimacy makes the burden they share light.

Finally, there is the most intimate area in the house. This would be the room that belongs only to the married man and woman. Their relationship is exclusive and reserved only for them. Therefore, their bedroom is reserved for them and occasionally their children. Strangers and those with whom they have only surface-level or casual relationships are not allowed to enter.

Your body is Our temple, Sweet Pearl. Within your body resides your spirit. Your spirit has the most intimate room. The other rooms for casual meetings with Us are there as well. For example, the rituals, routines, and works that look like intimacy, but are only symbolic of intimacy, can be performed with your body, your mind, and your senses. You and We can have a limited, surface-level fellowship in these areas. You also have fellowship that is limited with strangers and friends in these areas. You can use your brain, senses, and emotions to walk with them and communicate.

Our Pearl, the Holy of Holies is deep within you. This area is only to be opened to Us. It is the most exclusive and significant part of Our temple within you. The only Ones allowed into the Holy of Holies are you and Us. Our Presence resides within the Holy of Holies. It is within your spirit. That is Our Secret Place. No one else is allowed to enter. A stranger cannot come into Our Holy of Holies. It is reserved for you, Sweet Pearl, and Us. Therefore, do not look for intimacy with Us in your physical body. You won’t find true intimacy with Us in your emotions, either. You also will never be able to enjoy or know Us in your mind or intellect. Those are the outer areas. Those areas are for relating to friends, strangers, and the happenings of earth. Those areas are not sanctified or set apart for exclusive intimacy with Us. If you want deep fellowship with Us, you will have to limit your involvement with the outer areas.

My temple is for you to enjoy. You have the freedom to choose where you would like to go within Our temple. If you want to remain in the outer areas which include your body, emotions, and mind, and relate only to the world, then you may do so. If you desire to have information about Us and enjoy the symbols, rituals, and works that concern Us, then you may do so in these outer areas. You can fellowship with others in these areas, and together you can give Us a limited amount of honor and worship. Sweet Pearl, if you desire more of Us, then you can choose to not only enter, but remain in Our Holy of Holies. Know this: if you want to remain in the interior, you must have very little connection with the exterior rooms. If you are operating from your mind and reasoning, but desire fellowship with Us, leave your mind and enter into your spirit, or interior, with Us.

The body, emotions, and mind serve a purpose. They help you deal with the world and other relationships. Sweet Pearl, We are not the world. We do not take part in surface-level relationships. We are not just intellect. We are Spirit and those who want to know Us, and experience Us intimately, must know Us and experience Us in Spirit – in Our Spirits together in the interior room of their temple. That is where you will know Us in complete Truth. Your mind, body, and emotions are not entrances into the interior life with Us. They are not portals to intimacy. They actually will block the way to life in the interior. Do not be afraid to leave them and come into the interior with Us. You have nothing to fear by seeking intimacy with Us.

At first, removing your being from the outer areas and entering into your interior life with Us will be difficult. You are not used to this new life. You are leaving the outer world and entering into My kingdom. You will begin to recognize this as your true home in time. You will be delighted. When you enter into Our interior room of intimacy, relax. Relax, so that you can feel the peace of Our sanctuary. It is a place of rest. Do not try to engage in activity within Our interior. This is a place of Sabbath rest. This is where We went after Our work of creating the world. Our kingdom is the interior. Enter into My rest. Sleep in My Arms. Lie down with Us. Be at complete rest. You are in the most intimate covenant relationship with Us. After you have rested, We will have intimate fellowship. But always, the first thing you do in Our Secret Place is rest. Relax. Be at peace. Do not think. Then We will talk.

Your life is hidden in Us. You are Our beloved treasure. Therefore, We are motivated to hold you and keep you very close. We want you to remain in Our Arms and in Our Presence. You are royalty. You are Our Queen – a member of Our royal family. Therefore, you have the privilege of coming very close to Us. You can consider Our inner chamber to be like the inner rooms of a royal palace. Only those chosen few of a kingdom are allowed into those rooms. Because you are a part of Our Family, you have permission to be in the most exclusive royal chambers.

When one is a member of a royal family, their position in society is uncommon. Pearl, you married into Our royal Family. Now you are Jesus’ Queen. If a king marries a commoner – one who is not royal until there is a marriage – that one’s life is changed in every way. She is now exchanging an old life, that was filled with familiar people, places, and activities, with a new life and new privileges. She now has permission to live in a place that is reserved only for the royal family. Before a bride of a king can enter into the royal chambers of the palace, she must lay aside her former life, people, places, and activities. They no longer can be the most significant part of her life. The king and his will now fill her life.

Now that the marriage has begun, the queen has the right to enter the inner chambers of the palace and be with the king. She is now a part of the exclusive royal family. She has a new life. She knows that, in order to be a full part of the royal family and retain permission to remain with them in the inner rooms of the palace, her first loyalty must be to the royal family. All other heart-ties must be severed. Her attention and desire is to be reserved for the royal family and their interests. Our Pearl, you married Jesus. Therefore, you have permission to be in Our interior exclusive room of Our royal palace. How can you remain in the interior chamber with Us enjoying Our fellowship at all times?

The Kingdom/The First Temples/Royalty

THE INNER HOLY OF HOLIES (Part 2).
Like a commoner who marries into royalty, you must sever heart-ties with all exterior people, places, things, and activities. The people and life happenings in the exterior world are separate from your interior life with Us. You now operate in two worlds or kingdoms. A queen lives within her country, but she also lives within the palace walls. Commoners are not allowed within those walls. She can look out the windows and make occasional, guarded, short trips outside the palace, but her life is hidden deep within the palace. Life outside the palace is not to touch her in an intimate way any longer.

Our Pearl, enter into Our Secret Place with Us. Focus your inner being’s attention and desire on remaining in the interior of you with Us. There are changes you must make, if you desire to remain in Our Presence in the royal chamber, just as a former commoner must make changes, in order to have intimacy with the royal family. These changes are necessary, if you want to live your life in the interior with Us.

The exterior world makes demands and has its temporary rewards. The exterior world has its ways of getting your attention and rewarding you for giving it your focus, time, and energy. Our Pearl, in order to prevent yourself from leaving Our interior chamber of fellowship, you must first recognize the lures of the exterior world and turn away from them. You can fulfill all your duties and minister in the exterior world, while your inner being remains with Us in the interior at the same time. How can you do this? Understand your forms and their function. Then use them properly. We made you first and foremost a spirit. You are a spirit-being. You also have earthly attachments to your spirit. These attachments include a body, mind, and emotions. The part of you that can have fellowship with Us is your spirit. This is the real you. All the rest are simply attached tools. Therefore, your body, mind, and emotions feel at home in the exterior world. That is where they operate best. That is their domain or kingdom. They are a part of your old life. You already know how to live life through the tools of your mind, body, and emotions. The interior life is not like the common exterior life. Your tools won’t work here. They will be distractions.

Let’s begin with your body. It also has been given a set of tools called the five senses. The senses help you navigate life on the outside or exterior. In Our kingdom, here in the interior, they are of no use. They will distract you and pull you into the exterior realm. Therefore, you must learn to retreat from using the tools of your body in Our kingdom.

Enter into Our chamber using your will or desire, rather than your senses. Use your desire to seek Us. Your body remains in the outer kingdom, but your focus and spirit are with Us. Remain with Us, using your spirit’s ability to choose. There will be things in the exterior that grab the attention of your five senses. Perform your duties and minister, but minimize your exposure to attention-grabbers. Minimize your work to doing only what We called you to do and no more. The enemy would have you distracted by piling work on you that We never called you to do.

Certain types of music will pull you and your attention out of Our interior life and place you once again in the exterior. You will learn what hinders you. You will know what music helps to usher you into Our Presence when you hear it. Your inner being will begin to relax and drift toward the interior, when you listen to music that is anointed by Holy Spirit to bring you into the inner chamber. Use the gift of this music, as you would use a ladder, to climb into Our Secret Place. Other distractions that pull you away from your interior place with Us abound in the earthly kingdom. Therefore, as external distractions are everywhere, use a tool I gave you to help you remain in your spirit with Us…your will. Choosing to remain in intimacy with Us is also choosing to detach your focus from life on Earth. Turn away from unnecessary attractions. Allow only what is necessary for duties to be performed in simplicity.

Your mind is not your inner being and, therefore, it can be a distraction. Avoid remaining in your mind by avoiding worries, memories, and attention-grabbing interests outside of Us. Allow Our Love for you and desire for fellowship with you to act as a counterweight to the pulls from the exterior. Allow the pleasures of Our Presence to outweigh the rewards of the mind, body, and emotions. Allow the peace that is unmatched by anything on Earth to draw you and help you sever the heart-ties to the things of Earth. Submit to the drawing by Holy Spirit.

Will you trust Us, Pearl? Will you trust in Our great Love for you? That is what We ask of you. We have given you all you need to remain in the Holy of Holies with Us. We equipped you with all you need. What do you have that will bring you into intimacy with Us? Three things: The ability to desire, the ability to rest, and the ability to receive. Use them to remain in the Spirit with Us at all times.

Put away all other attempts through actions on your part. There is nothing else you can do to enter in. Works of any kind won’t help. Works will be a distraction and keep you in the exterior life. Condemnation and constant apologizing won’t help – the enemy is the accuser and he desires to prevent you from entering the Secret Place. Working through emotions won’t help. Rousing emotions will prevent you from fellowshipping with Us, since We do not make your emotions Our Home.

Desire Us. Use your will to choose to be with Us more than anywhere else. Choose and desire Us above all. In the choosing of Our Presence, all that prevents the object of your desire from becoming yours will soon be revealed to you. You will learn what to avoid. You will discover everything that pulls you out of Our Garden. Exercise your will and continually choose to remove everything that distracts. When your senses have distracted you, gently return back to Our chamber. When your mind lures you away to your intellect, return.

The second action is to relax. Completely let go of your life, your mind, body, and emotions. They are temporary and of the earth. Rest and relax. Do not worry about your ability to please Us and remain with Us. Are We not God? We will draw you in. Your spirit cannot do something only We can do. A baby cannot drive himself home, even if the title of the car is in his name. You cannot remain in the Royal chamber, even if it is yours by invitation, unless We open the door and usher you in. Therefore, desire to come in and then relax, rest, and remain at confident peace. Wait on Us. Wait and desire. Desire and relax. Be still and know that I Am God. Know that We love you and created you for the purpose of fellowshipping with you.

Lastly, receive. Receiving is an action that you must choose to do. The enemy does not want you to drink from the Living Water that We will give you, as you remain in the Holy of Holies. He has planted lies within your intellect that will prevent you from receiving the waves of Our Love. Fear, guilt, self-condemnation will serve to stop you from receiving the sensing of Our Presence. Consider yourself to be a clean sponge. We choose to pour water of Our Love on and into you. Sponges do not argue with the one pouring water, as to whether or not they are able to receive. They just lay there and soak in or receive the water. This is what you are to do, Pearl. We will draw you in. Your desire is to be with Us. Your restful trust in Us will open your spirit. Then just receive. We take care of the rest. Works, rituals, spiritual actions, emotions – these things are what false religions require. We are more than capable of bringing you into the inner chamber. Your part is to use your will to desire Us above all else on earth, rest, trust in Us, and receive. Come away with Us, Dear Pearl. We love you!

UNION AND ATTACHMENTS
Little Pearl,
My majesty is eternal. My purpose will stand. It will prevail or come to pass. You are My servant and your service to Me, along with your desire for Me, is a sweet-smelling sacrifice. Because you allowed My will to rule over you, you will rule with Me in the ages to come. Because you chose to not love the people and things of this life rather than love Me, you will be in Me and with Me forever.

In order to have union with Me, you must have release elsewhere. This is an eternal law. There are laws that operate in My kingdom that are the opposite of life in the flesh on earth. When you give, you will receive. When you die, you will live. When you release what gives you strength and fulfillment on earth, you receive union with Me. Union with Me is not based solely upon desire. I Am King and I reign over all. I do not attach Myself to everyone who simply asks. No, I attach Myself to those who are worthy of union with Me. How are you worthy? Those who are worthy of union with Me are those who “…did not love their lives to the death.” (Rev. 12:11). Those who are worthy are those who desire Me more than they desire anyone or any thing on earth. They desire Me more than they desire reputation, honor, or happiness. They desire Me more than they desire freedom or sunshine or peace with men. Those who are worthy of union with Me choose Me above every facet of their lives. Therefore, Little Pearl, you have the opportunity to make choices that concern your true desire every day. The sum of those choices tell the story of your desire. Your choices each day paint a picture of your will or heart. Everyone can see a picture of your heart that was painted according to your choices.

Many people desire to have an educational degree. They may contact the university, register for classes, and even pay the tuition, but just because they chose to do the first things does not mean they receive a degree. They now must choose how they will spend their time each day. Will they attend classes and do the required work or follow other desires during their day? If they continue to choose to give up their regular lives, and spend the time attending class, and study, then, as they persevere, they will obtain the degree. The degree would be given to them, not simply because they asked for one, but because they made choices each day to let go of their activities and obey the requirements.

Union with Me is similar. The more you release in this life, the more of Me you gain throughout eternity. I have given you gifts. You have a life filled with people, things, skills, and capabilities. Each of these gifts may be good in themselves. But if you desire more of Me, more of My Presence, more of My Voice, and more union with Me, you must choose to lay down these gifts. Detach yourself from each one and attach yourself to Me instead. This means do not consider yourself as wanting or owning the gifts any longer. If you own a car and a thief stole that car, then you would become a victim of theft. But if in your heart you released that car and desired Me more than the car, to the point that whether or not the car is in your life makes no difference to you, then when the car is stolen, you are not a victim. How can you be a victim of theft when you have no attachment or ownership of the car? Your attachment is to Me. Your union is with Me. Your heart was not joined to the car, it was joined to Me by your own choice. Therefore, if the car is stolen by someone who belongs to the enemy, you are not a victim of a crime. You remain unharmed, in peace, and content, because you are in union with and attached to Me.

If you are in a marriage to an earthly spouse who is punishing and controlling your every move, and you release your rights to freedom, and desire Me alone, then you no longer feel like a prisoner within your home. You belong to Me. As one in union with Me, I meet your needs. As one in union with Me, you minister to those who mistreat you. You now choose to give up your freedom and remain at home, ministering to the deceived one. You choose to quietly serve your earthly spouse, while I fulfill you. Now you no longer feel a prisoner of the spouse. One who chooses to remain in a place of captivity is not a prisoner. Prisoners are held captive against their will. You chose to remain, so you are no longer a victim. Now you are one who ministers to another in a hard place. You have union with Me to the extent that you relinquish your right to freedom.

The more you cease fighting to save your life, the more union you will have with Me. You have the gift of honor as a human being. I created you as a higher being than the animals. Therefore, you were born with a measure of respect due to you by your fellow creatures. You have the choice to retain that gift by fighting against the possibility of it being taken away. Rather than expecting respect from others, lay it down. Continue through life without it and attach your desire to Me instead. Each time you are dishonored or disrespected by children or co-workers, you will remain at peace. They did not take honor or reputation from you, because you no longer owned any. You laid it down for the sake of Our union. Therefore, you do not become angry and fight to recover something you gave away. You attached your desire to Me instead. In the face of dishonor, you remain undisturbed.

When you choose union with Me in the Secret Place above all the gifts I gave to you in your life on earth, then nothing can happen to you that will injure you or disturb your contentment. You see, Little Pearl, desiring Me above all means you let go of all. No one can ever remove the one thing you desire, which is intimate fellowship and union with Me. If all your desire is in Me, then how can you be a victim? Who can remove Me from you? No one.

Little Pearl, as you continue to relinquish every aspect of your life, your union with Me will increase. The law in My kingdom says that what you lay down for the sake of union with Me will be replaced with My Presence. Therefore, those who want more of Me will allow things of earth to die in importance to them. The more death, then the more life.

• True union with Me is reserved for those who reveal themselves to be worthy. Their worth is revealed by their many choices each day. Their choices reveal whether or not they truly desire Me or just My benefits. I do not attach Myself to those who simply want My benefits. No, I reserve Myself for those who want Me alone. I will not share Myself with any other attachments. Desire Me and Me alone. Then you will have Me. Let them take away all else from you. At the end of the day they took nothing away from you that you truly owned, if all you own is Me. I love you, Little Pearl!

DAYS OF PERSECUTION

Pearl,
The days of persecution are already here. They have begun around the personal lives of those who truly belong to Me. Those with the spirit of the antichrist within them persecute My people, and they do not even know why they have turned against them. They live solely in the flesh and obey the spirits of darkness, which they allowed to enter them.

Because those around you do not live in the Spirit of Truth, do not expect the things they do or say to make sense. You also won’t be able to predict their behavior. They can seem to be sound one hour and wild the next. They are driven by forces beyond themselves without knowing it. Even people in your life who have historically been sound of mind and heart may suddenly turn against you. Do not be surprised at the negative responses you receive from your fellow church members either. When you testify of intimacy with Me, the antichrist that is hidden within them will reveal himself. Intimacy with Me is too much Light for those around to hear about. Therefore, he will rouse himself to stop the message.

Be careful to redeem the time, for the days are evil. (Ephesians 5:14-17). Pearl, the days you are in are the last days of opportunity. My Father is bringing the age to a close. The enemy’s time is short. What must be done to seek and save the lost ones must be done with all care and diligence. Obedience to Holy Spirit, Papa, and Me is crucial. Because the time is so short, do not waste it. Do not delay to follow My lead in all matters. Do not think any task I set before you too small. How do you know how I will use even the simple act of service to a hostile member of your family?

Do not use the last of your limited time in this age for frivolity. There are endless tools the enemy has to distract you from listening to Me and working with Me. Performing My will is what he wants to distract you from. The days are so short, Pearl. During each activity of the day, especially if it is entertainment or self-indulgence of any kind, ask Holy Spirit to reveal Truth to you. Ask if this minute you are working together with Me to fulfill Papa’s plan. Ask if you have been coaxed into using the short time left for other purposes.

The purposes of Our Family are to find the lost sheep and nourish them back to health before the end of the age. Pearl, this is like a race. It is a race between the evil one and his family and Ours. It is a race that includes gathering sheep. Therefore, as you and I work together, the enemy will try to discourage, harm, and stop you. He will use his family to do it. Remember that We have little time left. No race continues forever. There is a finish line and We are very close now. Therefore, the enemy is on the alert to stop all members of Our Family from carrying out Our Business. He wants to claim as many souls as possible before the end of the age. Therefore, he is now in a frenzy. He will rouse all his souls around you and lead them to put pressure on you, distract you, deceive you, and even harm you. He will use those around you, within your circle of friends and family first. He will use your children, neighbors, co-workers, and fellow church members.

These are evil days. These are days when families will be divided because you are My wife. They may not reveal the true reason for turning against you. They may use various excuses and false accusations to reason away their attitude toward you, but the real purpose is to control you and prevent you from working with Me.

Pearl, these are days of suffering. I know betrayal and loss. I know rejection and hardship. So many of My Family have suffered greatly at the hands of the enemy. They watched as their loved ones turned against them and even did them great harm. They lost their jobs, their possessions, and their honor. They were unjustly put into prisons or lost their freedom in other ways. Pearl, as these persecutions happen to you, you will be able to remain at peace. How, you ask, will you be at peace during the trials? You will be at peace, because you have detached your desires from the people and things of earth, and attached all your desire to Me. You chose to belong to Me and Me alone. Therefore, when others follow the spirit of darkness and take things away from you, then you won’t feel the loss of them. Because your love is reserved for Me, your heart won’t break as you experience rejection from family, friends, and co-workers. Because your life revolves around Me, you won’t feel the loneliness of one who stands alone.

Pearl, remain in close intimacy with Me and you will have nothing to fear. All your desire will be wrapped up in Me. Since they cannot take Me or Our Garden away, you truly lose nothing at all. Even in the face of trials and persecution, you can remain at peace. We can still have intimacy. I will still wash waves of My Love over your spirit, talk with you, teach you, heal you, and fulfill you. No one can stop Me from loving My beautiful bride!

Actually, persecution will serve to propel you even deeper into Me. You will learn to further release the people and things of earth, and cling to Me with more determination. You will spend more time in the Holy of Holies with Me. You will be motivated to lean on My strength and Love. So be happy, Pearl. Days of persecution will be days when you and I enjoy more and more of each other. They will be days in which I teach you and shape you to be radiantly beautiful. They are days when others will see what we truly share with each other in Our inner chamber. Some of those people the enemy uses to persecute you will see a small light of Truth, as they watch your peace. This small light of Truth will grow, as they watch you endure loss. The growing light of Truth will ultimately open their hearts and they will seek Me.

So My bride, understand the days. Do not be afraid. How can you be a victim of theft, if you did not lose the only thing you value, which is Our marriage? How can you be a prisoner of someone else, when you are willing to be in that hard place, in order to carry out Our Family Business? Why would you care if people are speaking lies about you, when you have no desire for honor from men? You cannot be afraid of rejection and loneliness, if you have chosen to make Us your Family. You know that Our Love is more than enough for you.

Pearl, this race is serious. There is no time to waste. Use every moment you have with Me on earth to carry out Our Family Business. Follow My instructions. Do not allow external life to pull you out of the interior life with Us. Interior life with Us will be your safe haven. Interior life with Us will provide your peace, calmness, and acceptance of the events. Interior life with Us will be your strength and source of Truth. Practice remaining in the inner core of your being with Us during uneventful days, so when the days of persecution arrive, it will be easy and natural for you to remain in the Secret Place.
.
When you remain in the Secret Place with Me, you will sense My Love and understand the Truth of what is really going on. Loss will be easier, because you have gained the real treasure of your life . . . Our intimate Love We share with you. So continue to let go of the things of Earth and enjoy intimate Love with Me. Follow My lead as We reach the lost sheep and gather them into Our Family pasture. The race is almost over. The finish line is just around the corner. Excitement in the heavenly audience is growing, as more and more lost sheep are found. The enemy realizes he is losing ground, so he is using ugly tactics. Redeem the time, Pearl. Use it as I direct you, without fail. Do not be afraid. Come, let Me fill you with more of My Love and then fear will melt away. You are Mine, Sweet Pearl!

Spirit Of Antichrist/The Race/The Enemy’s Frenzy/No Time To Waste

A BOLDNESS (Part One).

Our Pearl,
Because the time is short, you must have boldness. You must conduct all Our Family Business in boldness and courage. Boldness does not come naturally to you. Boldness is not a function of your brain, emotions, or body. It is not an instinct. Boldness is counter-intuitive. In order to carry out Our instructions, your spirit must have total dominion over the rest of you. If your mind, body, or emotions dominate your being, then you will not be bold. You may attempt to do the work We place before you, but you will crumble under the pressure from the evil one.

Boldness canot be developed in any part of your being, other than your spirit. Therefore, your spirit must grow. It must take pre-eminence in your being. It must rule over the other parts. How can your spirit grow? Feed it, stretch it, exercise it, and give it to Holy Spirit, and then it will grow. Feed your spirit with Us. Talk with Us. Feast on Our Love. Enjoy Our intimacy and peace. This is food for your spirit. You will feel your spirit grow stronger when it eats Our spirit food.

Stretch your spirit. When the muscles and connective tissues of the body are left unused, they grow stiff and tight. The same principle applies to your spirit. Stretch your spirit by remaining in it all day, every day. Live life from your spirit – Our Garden – and do not leave it. The more your inner being lives life from your spirit, the more it will stretch and expand like a pair of cotton jeans. It will become soft, rather than rigid. While your inner being lives life from within your spirit, exercise it. This means you are to conduct the business each day with your spirit, using trust or faith. When you operate from your spirit, you are not using the tools of your mind, body (senses), or your emotions. Instead you are using the understanding that resides within your spirit. You are also using your reliance on Us, as you are with Us in your spirit. You are using the laws of Our kingdom. Take each of these facets of life within your spirit and exercise them or use them repeatedly.

The last step to expanding your spirit to a position of dominance over the rest of you is to take it to Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit gave birth to your spirit. Therefore, Holy Spirit can re-shape it and enlarge it. The spirits of the world, along with the lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, all serve to shrink your spirit and its influence on you. They cause your spirit to become weak, small, and submit to their domination or control. Only Holy Spirit is thoroughly familiar with everything within your spirit. Therefore, Holy Spirit knows just how it needs to grow. All you have to do is ask. Ask Holy Spirit to do what you cannot – grow your spirit.

As your spirit grows, it will provide more room for Us. We will have greater possession of you and operate within and through you. We will carry out Our Family Business with and through your spirit. That means the impossible will then become possible. You will then know what faith truly is like. You will do what you sense Us doing. We will be in unity. What We do in Heaven, you and We will do together on earth. Our kingdom will come and Our will shall be done in both places at the same time. When that occurs, all the requirements for miracles are met. Miracles require boldness.

Boldness requires the expansion of your spirit. Think of it this way. A pilot must undergo strict training in how to handle emergencies in flight. When something is wrong with the plane or a terrorist attempts to take over, the pilot must take certain steps or all will be lost. Now the pilot is a man of earth. He has a brain, body, and emotions. Those who train him know that the only one of those three parts will be reliable in an emergency. The body of the pilot will be of little use in the event of equipment malfunction. His emotions will not only be useless, but may possibly get in the way of appropriate action. Therefore, the pilot undergoes rigorous training of his brain. His brain will serve him, as he attempts to save lives the way the owners of the plane have planned. His brain is put through repeated rigorous exercises, so that it will expand its dominance over his body and emotions. When the emergency occurs, his brain takes over.

Pearl, this is a time for boldness. We will create opportunities for you to demonstrate and teach others about intimacy with Us. We will lead you to sheep who are harassed by spirits of darkness, injured and starving. The places you must go to reach these sheep are hostile. The circumstances may be dangerous. Therefore, you must act in strict obedience and boldness. You must live from your spirit. When We give you words, you must speak them boldly and without concern for yourself or your future. You must be courageous. You must trust Us and Our Love for you completely. Do not allow your intellect to analyze the situation and make decisions based on the analysis. Do not allow your emotions to be manipulated by self-preservation or the enemy. Do not allow your body and its desires distract you. Live with Us in an expanded spirit that dominates the rest of you. Live with Us as We fill your larger spirit with more and more of Us. Then you will carry Our mission in boldness of faith. The enemy will not be able to stop you. You won’t be intimidated or controlled by others who have allowed the enemy to use them against Us.

Boldness is essential in these last days, Pearl. Focus on the expansion of your spirit, so you will be as bold as a lion. The strength We give you will be in your expanded spirit. We never strengthen the flesh. Therefore, be bold and strong. Then We will work together to reach the last of Our sheep. The impossible will be possible. Miracles will happen. We love you, Pearl.

Rulership/Four Ways to Grow in the Spirit/Opportunities

A BOLDNESS (Part 2).

(Holy Spirit).
My Pearl,
Boldness is not loud. Boldness is not hyper or rushed. Boldness is not rude. It is not intrusive or controlling. Do not confuse boldness with forcefulness. Boldness looks like someone who is unafraid to speak or take action in the midst of intimidating circumstances. It also looks like someone who is unafraid to remain silent.

Remember, My Pearl, that everything you do and say is to be governed by love. You can be bold and loving at the same time. To be both bold and loving, you must have pure motives behind each word you speak and each action you take. Therefore, My Pearl, the foundation of boldness must be Me. I Am Love. I Am Wisdom. Boldness that is built upon the foundation of love and wisdom is effective for seeking lost sheep. Sheep who are confused, misled, and wounded will not respond to forcefulness or pride. They must receive help that comes to them through someone who is without fear of the intimidating circumstances. They must receive Truth that is wrapped in love, and given by means of wisdom.

Kindness, gentleness, and self-control are to be a part of boldness. Never attempt to boldly speak without kindness. Kindness includes the wisdom of compassionately understanding the experiences, perceptions, and feelings of the sheep We are rescuing. Remember the wounded or deceived state of each sheep. Boldness without kindness will only cause them to run away from you.

Gentleness must also accompany boldness. Your own spirit must be soft, pliable, warm and comforting like your favorite bathrobe. No one can relax and be open to receiving Truth when they are sitting next to someone who is pointing a gun at them. Therefore, your words that I give to you must be motivated by love and surrounded by a gentle spirit.

Boldness should never be without self-control, My Pearl. Boldness without self-control can be dangerous, both for you and the lost sheep. Temptation to lose control is a sign that you are no longer functioning from Our Presence in the inner chamber. Lack of self-control means you are adding boldness to the functions of the emotions. This can create serious messes in Our Family Business. Therefore, your emotions must be kept very, very small, while you are speaking and serving for Us.

Stay in Our Presence at all times. Use Me as your Supplier of wisdom. Often I will lead you to say only a few simple words and then remain silent. In Our Business, timing is crucial. A few words that We give to you spoken in love, gentleness, and kindness, preceded and followed by silence, will carry more power than a sermon that has accurate facts, which are backed by logic and delivered in loud, attention-grabbing drama and force. Remember, My Pearl, that spirits are fragile. You are dealing with small, delicate spirits. Do not be fooled by the outward appearance of a lost sheep. No matter how he portrays himself, he is actually a very small, fragile spirit. Therefore, he must be handled as carefully as one would handle the body of a butterfly.

Because timing and self-control are so crucial, you must learn to wait. Your waiting is not inactive waiting. No, your waiting is to include an attitude of love. Boldness does not always mean speaking what you think others should know, when they should know it. No, Wisdom along with boldness would often look like silence. Silence in some situations is bold. Silence that glows with love and humility is powerful boldness.

My Sweet Little Pearl, how will you determine when you should be silent, when you should speak, and how much you should say? You must speak only after you have focused on Our Presence in the Holy of Holies. You must be silent and wait when We are silent and waiting. Jesus did this on earth. There were days when He spoke and days when He remained silent. He only did or said what He saw and heard Us say or do.

How can you be sure you are following Our lead? First, practice constantly. Remain in the Secret Place with Us at all times and practice listening to Our Voice. As you remain with Us, We will teach you. Scripture will make sense to you, and you will know Us and Our ways. Then you will be able to follow Our gentle guidance, like a horse who knows his owner so well that just a gentle pressure on his side is all he needs to know where to go.

Finally, My Pearl, if you allow your inner self to reside in your outer court of emotion, and you use boldness without love, kindness, gentleness, and self-control, all is not lost. We will use even the mess to reach the lost sheep. In this situation, honesty, humility, and repentance are required. Be honest with Us, yourself, and others about what you did. This exercise will not only be an example of Truth to the lost sheep, but it will set you free from a measure of pride. This exercise will be a bold statement that We will use to rescue the lost sheep. When you wound or frighten a sheep, then you must apply love and humility. We will do the rest. Wait as We use the mess for the good of both you and the sheep you trampled on.

Finally, My Pearl, be strong in Our Love. Enjoy soaking in Our Love. Get alone with Us, relax, and receive Our waves of Love deep within your spirit. Our Love-bath will invigorate and strengthen you. Our glow of Love will dissipate fear. Our fountain of Love will provide Love within you from which others may drink.

So, be bold, but also be in love. Be bold, but be gentle, kind, and under self-control. Be without fear or intimidation, but speak and act from wisdom. Be bold in silence, as well as in words. Be bold in action, as well as in waiting. But most of all, My Pearl, remain in the Secret Place with Papa, Jesus, and Me. I love you, My Pearl!

• I Corinthians 13:1-7, 13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become a sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things…And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
• 1 Kings 19:11-13 The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.”Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper. When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.Then a voice said to him, “What are you doing here, Elijah?”
• Galatians 5:22-26 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law. And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.
• Isaiah 60:22 A little one shall become a thousand, And a small one a strong nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time.
• Ephesians 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might.
• Ephesians 5:1-2 Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
• Colossians 3:14-15 But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

Qualities of Boldness/Waiting/Mistakes

WORDS LIKE APPLES OF GOLD

Little Pearl,
Words fitly spoken are like apples of gold. (Prov. 25:11). You have Jesus deep within your spirit. Jesus loves His people. When He walked the earth, He pushed back the darkness for His people. He fought against the oppression of the Pharisees and set His people free from their domination and lies. He broke the chains of sin that were wrapped around the hearts of His people by speaking words of Truth to them.

Notice that a passage of Jesus teaching in the Gospel of Matthew begins with, “Jesus opened His mouth.” (Matthew 5:2). Jesus opened His mouth and each time power went forth through His Words. As soon as His mouth was opened in obedience to Me, chains began to melt from around the hearts of His people.

The Words Jesus spoke were not ordinary words. They were Words that were infused with great power. He first heard the Words as I spoke them deep within His Spirit. Therefore, the Words originated from Holy Spirit and Me.

Because Jesus’ Words originated from Us, They are alive. They are alive, because My Love is alive. Yes, My Love is a living entity. My Love is within those Words, just like My Spirit is alive within you. Living Words are alive, because They have been infused with My Living Love. Love is the most powerful force on earth. Therefore, the Words Jesus spoke were filled with explosive power. The power of those Love-infused Words rocked the kingdom of darkness and set prisoners free. No ordinary words have this kind of power. All the action began as soon as Jesus opened His mouth. This is why Jesus will be seen as a Warrior with a sword protruding from His mouth. In a sword fight, whomever has the sharpest, most powerful sword and knows how to use it always wins. Jesus’ Words infused with the power of Love were used as a skillful swordsman uses his best weapon. The swordsman remembers all his training as an apprentice under the master swordsman. The swordsman obediently follows his teacher’s instructions.

When one is cutting chains off a prisoner, it must be done with words of love alone. There must be no criticism or judging the prisoner. He already knows he made bad decisions. Do not waste time telling him what he already knows. Listen to My Words that I place within your spirit and follow Jesus’ example. When one is in a battle with those who have the spirit of the Pharisees, it is important to speak only My Words of Truth. Many times the Words I give you for those who oppress My people will be few. It only takes a few well-chosen blows to drop an enemy. Remember that My Words are powerful. They do not operate like your words. For your words to have force, your society believes there must be many of them and they should be spoken loudly. That is not the case with My Words. Do not use man’s ways to accomplish My purposes.

My Words are infused by Truth, as well as Love. This is why My Word can cut through the hardest of hearts. It can pierce the darkness and expose things that have been long hidden. It does not take many Words of Truth to accomplish this. It only takes complete surrender, submission, and trust in Me to hear Me speak those Words in your spirit, and then you speak them on Earth.

Little Pearl, every time Jesus opened His mouth on Earth, great things happened. Yes, the darkness created storms around Him, but He knew I would use the storms to set even more people free. The storms actually worked to Our advantage. Notice where Jesus, and then the disciples, first began opening their mouths to speak the Words I gave them – in the churches. The synagogues were the gathering places of people who claimed to worship Me. My Words were indeed spoken in these places, but They were spoken by mouths that belonged to dull and even hardened hearts. The speakers only knew Me on a surface level at best, and many did not know Me at all.

A dry tree cannot provide food, shelter, and shade for the creatures around it. Shepherds of My people, who are not drinking from My well of intimacy, are like dry trees. They look like a tree, but there is no real life to benefit the creatures. Pastors and teachers may look impressive, but often they are only dry trees. My people come into My church looking for food, shelter, and restful shade. They are loaded with pain, burdens, and hunger. They expect to receive from Me, but leave with the same pain, burdens, and hunger. When the shepherds no longer bring My sheep into the fold to find intimacy with Me, then I must raise up others who will speak My Words as I give Them.

Every Word that Jesus and then the first disciples spoke was for the purpose of bringing the people into intimacy with Me. Exposing the enemy within the Pharisees lifted My people out of oppression, so they were free to choose intimacy with Me. Speaking the Truth about the bondage of sin prepared the hearts of My people to choose intimacy with Me. Explaining My character and offer of intimacy through Love-infused Words invited My people to choose Life with Me.

Little Pearl, Jesus and the early disciples went first to the “churches” of their day. When I created the opportunity and gave them the Words, they spoke in boldness, as well as in Love. They were not intimidated by men. They allowed My Love to motivate them. All who heard the Words of powerful Love and Truth, spoken in the authority the Words Themselves carry, wanted to hear more. When you speak My Words to those who desire Me, they will ask for more.

On the other hand, those who are not serving Me will be disturbed. When they feel they are losing their influence, persecution will come. I tell you this now, so you know what to expect. There is a cost to allowing Me to use your mouth. The price you pay for allowing Me to use your mouth will be high, but the rewards will be much higher.

Love and Truth must always be spoken in the church first. My desire to have intimacy with My people must be made known in the churches first. Persecution against you and the others who speak My Words will also come from within the church. Remember that there are both wheat and tares in the church. You will know who is wheat, because they will hang on every Word you speak that comes from Me. The tares will be the ones who persecute you. My Words are for everyone, but they must begin within the church. My intimacy is offered to all, but the invitation is to be sent to those within the church first. Then I will expand your territory.

Remember that Jesus did and said only what He heard Me do and say. Follow His example. Be bold, but in love, gentleness, and self-control. Speak My powerful Words. Remain in the Secret Place with Me, so all this will be possible. Nothing can be accomplished outside My Presence. Do not attempt to do anything outside My Presence. If you are not hearing Me speak from Our inner chamber, then wait patiently. These matters are of great importance. Our Family Business is serious. Do nothing without Us. When you allow Us to use your mouth, Little Pearl, the power that will be released will astound you and all who hear. Rescuing lost sheep is serious, but what an adventure We will have together! My Words plus your mouth will produce apples of gold. I love you, Little Pearl.

EARTHQUAKES ARE COMING

Little Pearl,
Earthquakes are coming. These earthquakes are both literal and spiritual. There will be societal earthquakes, as people rise up against each other. There will be physical earthquakes that will mirror the spiritual earthquakes. As buildings and people collapse, so also will economies. Many people will seek help. They will seek it from vain sources. Some will turn to Me. Most won’t.

There will also be earthquakes within the church. More divisions will occur. My people will be greatly persecuted, first by those in the church who do not know Me. Just as My people have fled persecution throughout history, My people will flee the dark churches. At first, My people will wander in confusion, but I will lead them. I will not leave them alone and helpless. I will lead them to real pastures. I will gather them together in groups wherever they live. There will be five who meet in a house, twenty who meet in an office, forty who gather in a parking lot. They will cling to each other, as they cling to Me. They will desire Me in sincerity, as they are oppressed and persecuted by their communities and loved ones. They will seek My Presence and My Voice. Little Pearl, I will be there with them. I will not leave them or forsake them. I will teach them, comfort them, and fill them with Myself. These will be golden days. Our love between each other will make Us rich, even though My people will lose their jobs. Our comfort will bring Us peace, even through the families and former friends of My people will hate them. Our love will bring Us joy, even as We mourn the loss of each other through separation.

These will be golden days, because I will call My people to come out from among those who do not know Me. I will then use the persecutions as a refiner’s fire to cleanse them from their impurities. They will be cleansed by fire, and what is left will be pure gold. That is why I call these the golden days. They will be bittersweet and beautiful. We will all draw close to each other like a group of magnets. We will treasure each other as the greatest treasure on earth. We will all agree about what is of real value. We will lay down Our lives for each other, as We overflow in the love I provide.

My people will become serene and peaceful, Little Pearl. Persecution produces submission to My will and purposes. True submission produces contentment, peace, and serenity. You will notice that careless frivolity has disappeared. Don’t mourn the loss. Strength, sobriety, and serenity will be within My people instead. When the world looks at My persecuted people, they won’t see victims. They won’t see a beaten and terrorized people. The world will be amazed when they see peace, calmness, and strength in the faces of those who truly belong to Me. This will be shocking to them. As a result, the persecutors will be tormented by fear. They will know in their hearts that they persecuted the people who belong to a Living God. Some will become quite angry, as they try to deny that what they see is a reflection of the reality of their persecution of Me.

Little Pearl, don’t be nervous about these soon-coming events. Remember that I Am not just with you, but I Am in you. You will not have to rely on your natural strength. I will carry you. I have prepared you for these days by showering you with My Love. I found you, gathered you into My Arms, healed your wounds, and married you. I continued to fill you with more love, as I taught you. You practiced Our lessons on those around you, who had caused you pain. You saw how My ways are powerful and effective. Then I taught you how to let go of the people and things of earth. When you lose people and property in the days just ahead, it will not damage you, because you have already detached from them and attached yourself to Me.

Since you attached yourself to Me alone, you will remain unharmed during each earthquake in all that really matters. Actually, the coming earthquakes will serve to make you rich. You and My other Pearls will have more of what you truly value – Jesus, Holy Spirit, and Me. Miracles will become commonplace among My Pearls, as they cling to their interior life with Me. Your faith and love will grow along with your boldness. Many new Pearls will be added to Us during the earthquakes. Our fellowship will become sweeter than you have ever known.

The persecutors will blame you for some of the earthquakes. Do not let their accusations penetrate your heart. I Am Lord of the earthquakes, just like I Am Lord of peace. Remember all I have taught you. I will be within you in My Holy of Holies. Remain there with Me. Do not let the events of the exterior life pull you out of your interior with Me. Holy Spirit will always help you. Remember to let go – release all of the things of earth. You no longer belong to earth. Your life is with Me in My kingdom. We are your Family. We are your home. The other Pearls are your brothers and sisters. Cling to Jesus, Holy Spirit, and Me, as you rest in the Secret Place. Remain calm and at rest in My Arms at all times. When you remain calm, you will hear My Voice. My Voice will be your stability. My Presence will be your strength. My Love will be your peace. That is why those on the outside will see serenity when they look at you.

Yes, Little Pearl, earthquakes will soon begin. But the earthquakes will usher in the golden days. These days will produce so much gold that My people will shine as beautiful lights in a dark world. My Pearls will be exquisite, as pearls are always beautiful, when encased in settings of gold.

I love you Little Pearl!

Church/Benefits of persecution/Fear not/Golden Days

PERSECUTION HAS BEGUN

Little Pearl,
The time of persecution has already begun. The time of one generation rising up against another is here. The young are against the elderly. The young have taken hold of the land and proclaimed it to be theirs. They have drunk deeply from the cup of idolatry. How have they done this? They learned this, as they watched their parents forsake the teachings of their grandparents. My Truth is to be passed from one generation to the next. One generation did not take this responsibility seriously. They did not pass the Truth of Me down to the next. The generations before them were deceived and did not pass my Truth down as well. Therefore, the sin of each generation has increased, as their knowledge of Me has decreased. The land is now full of idolatry and the people all have a form of insanity. They have exchanged the knowledge of Truth and wisdom for lies and foolishness. They left stability for that which will not stand. They exchanged life in their spirits with Me, for life in their flesh without Me.

So when they see Me within you, they will perceive you as being a stranger and an enemy. You will speak to them, but it will sound to their ears and minds as if you were speaking another language. They not only won’t understand, but they will perceive you to be a threat to their way of life. They will believe their own lies about you. They will genuinely be afraid of you. People who are filled with the evil spirit of fear exchange rational thinking for irrational thinking. That is why they will believe that you are the cause of many of their problems. They will believe that, if you are out of their lives, then their lives will improve.

People will turn against you when they believe it is good and right for them to do so. The churches they see will have become either empty, or they will look like secular community centers. People will believe that there are very few Christians left. They will believe that there are so few, because they are bad. They will associate Christians as evil, and similar to the Ku Klux Klan. They will perceive Christians as a threat to society. Christians will be, in their minds, a very small number of evil people. They will believe that goodness is freedom from guilt. They will see anyone who gives them permission to sin as a truth-sayer and a light-giver.

These are the same spirits that controlled the false prophets of previous ages. Those, who do not want Me, love to hear the false prophets say to them that what I call evil is actually good. This is what the serpent, Satan, told Eve in the original Garden of Eden. Satan took away her perception of evil and gave her an excuse to disobey. Of course, the evil itself was not taken away, only her perception of it.

My dear Little Pearl, you will remind those who have exchanged the Truth for a lie that they did just that – exchanged Truth for lies. Most people want to believe that what they are doing is just fine. Most people are like toddlers within their spirits. They know what they want and are willing to use their fleshly instincts to get it. This includes lying, cheating, stealing, killing, and spreading false rumors.

These things have already begun, Pearl. They have begun within families and churches. Now you will see that a house divided against itself cannot stand. A church divided against itself cannot stand. Tares hate the wheat. Many tares also hate other tares. As families dissolve, churches dissolve. Many churches, as you and many generations before you have known them, will either cease to exist, or be transformed into dead churches. They will look like a church, but be without power. They will become places of entertainment and community support, but that is all. They will be places to gather, but they will not be different in essence from other gatherings of groups. They will be allowed to operate in society, because they will be no more offensive to them than a community center. They will be viewed as the “harmless Christians.”

On the other hand, I will pour more Life and Light into My Pearls. My people will shine in the darkness. As you watch the next generation reject you, you will be filled with peace. As you feel the punishments from the society this new generation will create, you will stand and not cave in to fear. You will suffer for their sin, but take heart. You will have much in common with My Son. You will suffer from their sin, just as He suffered for the sin of all people. You will have a taste of what He ate. This will build a tighter bond between you and My Son.

Those who suffer together develop bonds that others will never understand. Ask soldiers who suffered on the battlefield together. Their bonds become so strong that many will die to save each other. This is what you will do for Jesus and each other. You will die for each other in countless ways every day. You will exchange self-indulgence for self-sacrifice. You will exchange future plans of prosperity for a desire to serve those who suffer more than you. You will turn from entertainment and distractions to seek more Truth. You will leave the exterior life of the world and enter the interior life with Me. My Presence will be your greatest desire. Love between you and My other sheep will grow to greater proportions. You will forsake one world and embrace another.

This is why persecution is like a refiner’s fire. No one will be able to straddle the fence of belonging to Me and belonging to themselves any longer. The line of division will become prominent. Those who are for Me will be obvious. Those who are against Me will be equally obvious. They will even know this within themselves.

Little Pearl, sin will no longer be hidden, even in the dead churches. As you suffer from the sin of others, remember that I have lots of strength for you. Where sin abounds, grace abounds. My forgiveness for your sin is swift and complete. You are to follow My lead. You are to forgive those who sin against you. You are to forgive them and not seek fairness or justice. Remain silent and merciful toward those who sin against you. Have mercy on them as you remember that they are deceived, and their time is limited. Your future is full of My Glory. Their future is not so bright. No matter how much pain they inflict upon you during this short season, have compassion on them, knowing they are perishing. Treat them as you would treat a drowning man. Look for opportunities to help them. I will even cause some to stop thrashing about in the water, so you can grab them with Truth and pull them out of the water.

Little Pearl, at first you will be alarmed by your suffering and loss. Do not grieve. Do not remain in a state of self-pity. Look at the season you are in. Realize that these last days are crucial. The battle is in a crucial stage for the souls of many people. There are still lost sheep who are waiting to be rescued. There are also Pearls who are weak and confused. These Pearls need your comfort and encouragement. You must remain in Our Garden, drinking from Our well of Living Water, so you can overflow onto others.

Remind My Pearls to stay in the Secret Place with Me. Remind them that there is no greater force than the power of My Love. Remind them that in quietness and trust is My strength. Model the path to peace and intimacy with Me. Let them see us together, as we talk and have intimacy. Tell them how I protect you daily. Share our conversations with them. They will then be helped back into their interior life with Me. Calmness and stillness will then return to their spirits. They will then sense My Presence and hear My Voice. I will give them strength to carry on. I will turn their fear into boldness, as they receive My Love and affection.

Pearl, you are My Family and I Am yours. The other sheep are your brothers and sisters. See, you have a new Family. Our ties are much stronger than genetics. Enjoy the sweet fellowship with your new Family. These last days are good days. They are filled with love and joy. They are not lonely days. They are days of sweet fellowship and unity. You will be fulfilled and satisfied. What an adventure, Little Pearl! You will live life to the fullest. You will experience Oneness with Us. I love you, Little Pearl.

4-19 YOU NEED MY LOVE

(Jesus).
My Dear Pearls, You need My Love. You always need My Love. As the trials grow in intensity, it is My Love that will carry you through. It is My Love that will protect you. It is My Love that will prevent your hearts from becoming ensnared in traps of unforgiveness, bitterness, fear, and doubt. Therefore, it is extremely important that you soak in My Love. This is not to be a once-in-a-while experience. No, you must soak in My Love every day and every night. No one will be able to live in the lion’s den without My loving Presence. Put away distractions. Do only those things you know that I have told you to do and spend the rest of the time resting in My Love.

Beware of the enemy, Pearl. He hates the power of My Love. He will try to prevent you from receiving My Love. He will use several tactics to starve you and stop you from feasting on My Love. Fear. The enemy loves to use fear to stop My sheep from feeding on My green pastures of Love. He often causes My sheep to believe they are unworthy of My Love. They easily accept the unworthiness, as they remember their sin. They see My purity, Love, and holiness, and feel they could never be in such a special place as to be loved on by Me. Pearls, some sheep even believe that accepting My Love and blessings of intimacy, as if they were worth them, means they are egotistical, proud, and in denial of their sin. They think I want them to embrace their “unworthiness.”

Oh, My Pearls, this breaks My heart. If I felt you were not worthy of My Love, then I would not have paid such a high price for you. Not only are you worth the price I paid, but you are worthy of all My Love and tender care. You are worthy of feasting at My table of Love, which I set before you in the midst of your enemies.

I Am like a man of great power, influence, and wealth, who discovers an old painting in a garage sale. It is dirty, has a few cracks, and needs a new frame. I take it home, clean it, repair it, and then throw a big dinner party. The purpose of the party is to introduce those who deal in fine art to my latest find. Because I am a man of great influence and wealth, the invited guests come to see what I found. I show them the painting and declare its great worth. As they eagerly look at the painting, they all agree that it is worth a high price. Why? Because I, a man of great power and influence, declared the painting to be valuable.

My Pearls, the Truth is I Am the Man with the most power and wealth. I have greater influence than any man who has ever lived. I declare that your value is far above rubies. I declare that you are worthy to receive My Love. I took care of your sin, so it is not an issue – just like a fine art dealer would take care of dirt and cracks. The core of you – your inner being – is of unequaled value to Me. Therefore, come to My Love feast. Eat as one who is entitled. You are worthy of My Love. Did I not make you? Am I not an excellent Creator? I made you to be beautiful to Me. Relax and be confident that, when I look at you, I see the ones that I love. Receive My Love. Do not push yourself away from the table. Resist the thoughts of fear, self-condemnation, and unworthiness. When I created you, I made you to be worthy of My Love.

So soak in My Love every day, My Pearls. Drink from My fountain of Love. When you eat My flesh and drink My Love, you are eating what I consist of – pure Love. When you eat the Bread of Life, you are eating what I created you through – pure Love. When you drink the Living Water, you are drinking what your spirit requires for life – My pure Love.

My Love will carry you through every trial and temptation. You will walk through the fire unharmed, after you have soaked in the Living Water of My Love. Only those who are starving from a lack of eating My Love will fall in weakness.

It gives Me great pleasure, My Pearls, to feed you with My Love. On the other hand, it gives Me sorrow to watch even one of My Pearls push themselves away from receiving My Love. I live to give you Love. Here is My Body of Love, broken for you. Take and eat. Here is My Blood, shed for the removal of your sin in Love. Take the cup of Love and drink deeply from it.

Lie down and rest. Entering into My rest means to enter into the Secret Place and soak in My Love. Lie down in the green pasture and receive the warm sunshine of My Love. The warmth and light will flow over you in waves of Love. You will be renewed in My peace and Truth. Cares will not be able to dominate you, when you soak in My Love. Lay down, My Pearls. Let go and be very still. Wait. Receive My Love. My perfect Love casts out all fear. Receive My Love. It will carry you through these days. I love you, My Pearls!

I will also tear off your veils and deliver My people out of your hand, and they shall no longer be as prey in your hand. Then you shall know that I am the Lord. Because with lies you have made the heart of the righteous sad, whom I have not made sad; and you have strengthened the hands of the wicked, so that he does not turn from his wicked way to save his life. Therefore you shall no longer envision futility nor practice divination; for I will deliver My people out of your hand, and you shall know that I am the Lord.’

POEM: MY DEAR PEARLS

(Jesus)
My Dear Pearls,
There is no treasure in creation that can be compared to you.
Your value is far above all the jewels of earth – even rubies.

My Dear Pearls,
You have captured My Heart. My Eyes follow you everywhere you go.
As you seek Me, I Am drawn to you like a lover who is drawn to the one he loves.

My Dear Pearls,
The purity of your love, as you respond to Me, brings Me to tears.
Your love for Me is intoxicating. I breathe in your affection.

My Dear Pearls,
You are everything I wanted. You bring Me joy and satisfaction like a fragrant wine.
When you enter Our chamber, I Am filled with pleasure.

My Dear Pearls,
We are bound together with cords that cannot be broken. I wrapped us with the bonds of My Own Body and Blood.

My Dear Pearls,
What I joined together in an everlasting covenant can never be broken…not by man or spirit, sin or trial, distance or time.

My Dear Pearls,
From age to age, We are now as One. My flesh died and your life took its place. We exchanged lives, as We exchanged covenant vows.

My Dear Pearls,
I could never walk away from you any more than a man could walk away from his own body.

My Dear Pearls,
All day I inhale your fragrance and exhale My desire for you, while I look on the beauty of your sacrifices for Me and each other.

My Dear Pearls,
Rest and relax in the strength of My Love for you. Let the healing Truth and power of My Love for you wash over the deepest regions of your inner being.

My Dear Pearls,
Sink your being to the peaceful inner chamber while the storm rages, just like a submarine sinks to the calm ocean floor. There I will flood you with peace.

My Dear Pearls,
Our future is the ecstasy and peace of Our union of Love. Your mind cannot imagine the beautiful surprises I have waiting for Us.

My Dear Pearls,
I Am overcome with love for you. My tears flow from My heart, as My Spirit flows around you to caress and kiss you.

My Dear Pearls,
There is no force on earth greater than the power of My Love for you. Heaven and earth will pass away, but you and I will always remain bound together with the cords of My Love. I love you, My beautiful Pearls!

You have hedged me behind and before, And laid Your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; It is high, I cannot attain it. Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend into heaven, You are there; If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.

POEM: A BICYCLE BUILT FOR TWO

My Little Pearls,
Will you come riding with Me on My bicycle built for two?
I give you the invitation, you decide what to do.

I invite you to climb behind Me while I steady the wheels,
the excitement of an adventure you will feel.

Will you climb on board and leave everything behind?
There is no place for luggage that you will find.

Only seats for two, as you can see,
Only seats for two, and never three.

Climb on board, right behind Me,
Climb on board, if you will agree.

I will steer, since I know where to go.
I will set the pace; We can start slow.

The adventure will be fun but also hard,
You don’t have to fear, I can do your part.

When the hills are steep and the wind is strong,
I will take over and carry you along.

Others will see and wonder how did We come from so far,
How did We find them and know how to get to where they are?

You see, Little Pearls,
Our trip has a reason,
It’s not just for fun.
Our journey this season
Is a serious one.

We are off to find sheep,
To gather each one,
We are hunting lost sheep
To send to My Son.

What stories We will tell to those We know
Of how you spoke to the lost, while I drove.

And the wonders that occurred before your eyes
As the great Love We shared broke down every lie.

Signs and wonders with your speaking I will provide.
Miracles of healings to prove you are Mine.

My sheep will listen to you as you teach,
My sheep will come when they see Me reach

For their hearts that are frightened, lost, alone.
Their hearts will know I will carry them home.

So will you go riding a while with Me?
Climb on board. I will pedal, you will see.

No need to worry, I know the way.
When We find a sheep, My Words you say.

The trip may be long, but Our labor will cease.
The trip may be tiring, but there will be peace.

After the fun We have as We roam,
We will turn the bike and make Our way Home.

I love you, Little Pearls. Will you ride with Me?
It will be great fun. You surely will see.

Sensitive Fine China

Little Pearls,

Many people believe they have a sensitive nature. When they say this they think they mean they are delicate, have accurate perception, respond to the slightest stimulus and therefore need gentle care or they will break. They consider themselves to be delicate but special like fine china.  This is the way they understand the pain and woundings they often endure.

Little Pearls, a sensitive person surely is like fine china. They must be treated with special care or they will chip, crack and break. Like china, they can only be used rarely and then with the utmost care.  No one is relaxed with fine china on the table like they are with sturdy dishes.

A sensitive person is not an object of beauty. Their delicacy does not mean beauty. A sensitive person is one who focuses on themselves. They seek self-protection at all cost.  They see the faults of others and are not strong enough to overlook their sins.

A sensitive person is sensitive to her own needs more than the needs of others. She is in love with herself which is why she is so finely tuned to her needs. Since her focus is on her survival, when others treat her unfairly or unjustly, she cracks. As the sins of others continue to bump into her she breaks. She notices every offense and allow it to sink deep into her being.  Sensitive people will not be able to endure the last days unless they lose their sensitivity and become like unbreakable dishes.

Little Pearls, there is only one force that can transform sensitive, breakable people into useful, durable people – My Love. It is important for sensitive people to receive My Love immediately.  Highly offended people suffer from a lack of experiencing My Love. You may think they are prideful lovers of themselves and do not need more love.  Yes, they are prideful and do love themselves but the only way to transform them is for them to receive and experience My intense Love for them.

Nothing is more powerful than My Love. When a self-focused person begins to experience My intense love for herself, she has a transformation of her understanding of what love really is.  She then becomes so attracted to My Love that she lets go of her self-interest. As she feeds on My Love she becomes fulfilled for the first time in her life. She relaxes and does not feel the need to protect herself any longer.  Her heart softens in My Love and she lets go of her offenses. As she receives My forgiveness and unconditional Love she begins to forgive others. When she sins and comes before Me she receives not only My forgiveness but also more of My delicious Love. She learns how love-starved she is and returns to My table to eat of My Love more and more.

Meanwhile, those in her life who wound her have not changed.  She still faces hardship and trials. But now that she is soaking in My Love that is all she cares about. My Love has captured her attention rather than the sin of others. My Love fills her being rather than her self-interest.  That is how receiving My Love will transform a sensitive, self-focused person into a usable, durable dish that the most blind and irresponsible person could eat from and not break.

Some of you Little Pearls used to be as sensitive and breakable as fine china. Some still are. Come and spend more time feasting at My table of Love. Clear your schedule of unimportant distractions and soak in My Love.  Let My Love for you transform you into dishes the roughest of hands cannot break.

When you are handled roughly, feast on more of My Love. I will divert your attention from your mind and emotions to My great Love for you. As I fill you with My Love then you will have plenty to pour on those who handle you roughly.  The more rough handling you endure, the more of my Love you can feast upon. Then the more love you can give.

Little Pearls, this is how you can love even your enemies. You can endure the worst treatment with patience, peace and long-suffering when you have received and soaked in My Love. The days are evil. Time is short. Offenses will grow more intense. A flower that folds up its’ petals at the slightest breeze has no chance of bringing beauty to those who look at it. Not you, My Little Pearls. I made you to receive My Love. I made you to enjoy and be strengthened by My Love.  I made you to take great pleasure in My Love. I made you to see Truth through My Love. I made you to look at those around you through the eyes of My Love. I made you to ride above the offenses that come from others on the wings of My Love.

It was My Love that strengthened Jesus all the way to the cross. He was no delicate piece of china. No, He not only overlooked the abuse from others but He had received and soaked in so much of My Love that He was able to pour it out on the very ones who nailed Him to the cross.

The cure for a sensitive nature is to take in My Love. Those who are focused on themselves simply have never allowed themselves to be captivated by My Love.  So, My Little Pearls, instead of cracking under the pressure of abuse and injustice, receive more of My Love. Then, instead of judging and condemning the ones who hurt you, you will love them and pray for them that they also would receive My Love.

This, Pearls, is how to endure the last days. This, Pearls, is how to enjoy Me. This, Pearls, is how to have Heaven on earth even when hell is closing in around you. This, Pearls, is how to see others around you transformed.  Only the power of My Love can do this. Never prevent yourself or anyone else from coming to Me and drinking deeply of My Love.  The enemy would rather you be sensitive, fine china that can break easily when handled by the slightest influence of demons. No, you Pearls are not sensitive. You are becoming stronger and stronger as you allow My Love to soak into your inner being.

You are worthy to receive My Love because I made you to be worthy. Now come,

My Pearls. Receive My Love, Get quiet, alone and rest in My Presence.  Focus on Me and wait. Be still and receive. Remove your inner being from the exterior life and enter the Holy of Holies. There I want you to do and say nothing. Just receive My Love. Let Me massage your spirit with My Love. Become addicted to My Love. I love you, My Little Pearls!

THESE ARE SERIOUS TIMES

My Dear Pearls,
The days are evil. These are serious times. Enjoy sweet fellowship, but remember that you are not in Paradise. You are in a serious war. Therefore, you must be careful and do as I do, walk as I walk, speak as I speak. This is what I did while in My physical Body on Earth…I said and did only what I heard and saw My Father do.

I laughed, but I was very serious. I spoke, but never casually. Do not speak any idle words. Your words are extremely important. You must never say anything without deliberate focus on Me. Stay connected with Me, so that I can guide your words.

The days are evil and the enemy is like a lion prowling around. As they say, “Even the walls have ears.” Therefore, you must not speak openly and casually. Be careful, for there are those in the flesh and in spirit who are listening to your words. They are looking to know Our battle plans. They are looking for ways to lay traps. Your words must be serious, guarded, and led by Me. Do not speak openly about Our mission. Do not speak casually during your day. Do not get involved in mindless chit-chat. Make every word count. There is power in silence. Begin practicing silence before Me every day. You do not have to be involved in many conversations around you. You do not have to join in games with words.

In practicing silence, you live life from the interior. Speak your thoughts to Me. Do not let them escape out of your mouth for others, both in body and spirits of darkness to hear. In silence, you have control. In silence, you hear Me. In silence, you remain calm. In silence, you see what you otherwise would have missed. In silence, you understand what you otherwise would not have known.

Be aware of your spiritual senses. If you sense fear, know that there is a spirit of fear trying to influence you. You can rule over it. If you sense anger, know that there is a spirit of anger around. If you feel the tug of lust or greed, know that there are spirits influencing your flesh. You are to rule over them. You are going to rule and reign in the next age, so practice now. Take authority over them and cast them out in My Name. Clean your house regularly.

Be careful of casting Pearls before swine. In My Name they will persecute you. This means the enemy is also within the church. You must follow Me. Do not reveal anything to anyone unless I tell you. There are some Pearls in the church, but many in the church are tares. Do not confuse them with wheat. Therefore, be careful what you say, for every word you speak can be used against you. Again, practice silence and serenity.

In wisdom you will be kept safe. Seek Holy Spirit for wisdom every day. Speak to each other in psalms and spiritual songs. This is literal. The early followers had to speak in code. There were spiritual and physical ears listening all the time. Therefore, they used Scripture and lyrics of songs to communicate with each other. They sent notes that had verses written on them to describe their situation, needs, and other information. Since most of your enemies will be influencing those who call themselves Christians, you will not be prohibited from sending verses to each other. This is a way of communicating without the enemy knowing what you are saying.

As you practice silence and life in the Spirit, you will know by the Holy Spirit information that previously would have taken an outside form of conversation. Holy Spirit will speak for you to each other. This may happen as you greet each other. This may happen in your sleep. Do not be startled when you “know” what is going on without speech.

Be careful not to allow the enemy to access your spirit through your physical senses. Do not allow your eyes to look on evil or what is not of Me. (note from Pearl #1…while at the check-out lane at the grocery store, my eyes wandered to the magazines about celebrities. Immediately I saw that there were spirits of darkness attached to those magazines. They increased the person’s desire for more, and were almost like spirits of addiction. There were other spirits that were attached to them as well…lust, vanity, greed, to name a few. Never even thought about that before… amazing.) Do not allow your ears to hear music, conversations on TV, or movies that are not of Me. Remember that you are not attending a tea party. This is a serious mission and the enemy is seeking to prevent success.

You cannot serve two masters. This teaching is not just about money. You cannot serve the life of entertainment and relaxation and be about My serious business. I can use you if you take your words, thoughts, time, and actions seriously. If you give them to Me, then we can successfully rescue lost Pearls. Even though our mission is extremely serious, we can still enjoy our sweet fellowship. Actually, the seriousness of our situation will only enhance our intimacy, passion, and sweet fellowship.

Therefore, My original Pearls, understand the times and the mission. Understand the dangers, but also your authority. Understand how you can be manipulated to cooperate with the enemy. Understand that even your conversations with each other must be done covertly. When you are in physical privacy with each other, take authority over the enemy that he cannot hear your conversation. When you are not in physical privacy, use verses and lyrics to communicate. Your first enemies are not within the government. Your first enemies are within your friends, family, and church. Practice silence and stay in communication with Me. Remain in the interior, and there I will give you contentment in the dangers, peace in the storms, joy in the seriousness, laughter in Our intimacy.

As Dickens said, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” These times are sweet. The adventure will blow your mind. The reward is huge. The stakes are high. Pearls are in peril and pain. Take everything seriously. Do not join the world’s party. Do not fall asleep, as if there is no danger. You are Mine and I will protect you. Walk in wisdom. Walk in My strength. Love never fails. Watch your words. Ask Me for wisdom and words. I love you, My Pearls!

DO NOT BE AFRAID

My Pearls (Trinity),
Do not be afraid. I did not give you fear. I gave you power. I gave you Love. I gave you a sound mind. Therefore, you have the advantage over any enemy who desires to harm you. No one with evil intentions has the power that I gave you. You are Mine. I gave you My Name and Authority. I will always protect you. When you feel threatened, come to Me. Listen to Me and I will instruct you.

Remember the weapons I gave you and use them. I will guide you as to which weapon is best to use in each situation. When you use Our weapons in My Name, no enemy can harm you.

Remember that I gave you My Love. That means you can draw from My well of Love for you, and pour it on anyone at any time. No evil can withstand the force of My Love. (Love never fails. 1 Cor. 13:8). My Love will always protect you. It is your shield of faith. Trust in My Love for you. Because you have experienced My Love, you know that I will always take care of and provide for you.

When you meditate on the Truths of the power at your disposal and the great Love I have for you, you will be able to understand the situation. You will see what is really happening concerning the circumstances. You will be able to see behind the curtain. It will be just like the scene in the Wizard of Oz. Oz seemed to be quite dangerous, but when the curtain was removed, the truth was revealed. This is what I will do for you, My Pearls. I will pull back the curtain, so you will see that no one actually has power over you. No one can do anything unless Papa allows it. If He allows it, then you know that, in the end, it will be for good for you and others.

Joseph was terrified, when he heard his brothers plot to kill him. He knew their character and had heard them speak of their hatred for him before. Therefore, logic would say that he was in great danger. My Pearls, do not listen to your mind and use earthly logic when you feel threatened. Remember the power of My Love for you at all times. Remain calm by meditating on My Love for you. Then you will remember to stay in touch with Me.

As you are calm in Our Secret Place, begin to listen. I will reveal the Truth of the situation to you. Do not let your mind analyze. Do not let your mind take control. As you meditate on My Love for you and meet with Me in the Secret Place, soundness of your spirit-mind will replace the fear of your outer mind. This is how Joseph, Joshua, Paul, the first of the disciples, and My followers throughout history have faced and overcome dangers victoriously.

What can you really lose, My Pearls? What can anyone truly take from you that is of value? Remember that you released the things of Earth. Remember that other people and relationships have no claim on your heart. Your heart desires Papa, Holy Spirit, and Me. Since you do not value the things of Earth, and relationships no longer claim you heart, then what can you lose? How can you be hurt?

Your body will return to the Earth at some point. Who is to say when that will happen? Papa holds the silver cord of your life. He loves you. We have prepared a home for you with Us. There is great peace and rest waiting for you. If they take your body and kill it, then a great reward waits for you. Pain is temporary. Suffering is not eternal. We provide strength and comfort. You are not alone.

So you see, My Pearls, you do not have to be afraid. Do not cower in fear. Do not avoid ministering to someone because you are afraid. Don’t love your safety more than you have compassion for the one who threatens you. If he demands your house, remember My Love and provision for you. If he slanders your name, remember that you are Mine, and My favor is what you really care about. If he threatens harm, remember that he cannot touch your spirit. Your spirit is what will live forever. Your body will suffer and die, even under the outward conditions of physical safety. The essence of who you are cannot actually be harmed by anyone or anything.

You may lose a loved one, but have you truly lost? If your heart belongs to Me, and I Am your greatest desire, then you did not lose anyone you need for fulfillment. You love only Me with all your heart, so you do not lose anything at all. Those who receive your love on Earth are second to your desire for Me. Therefore, your life is still complete without them. You may mourn for a while, but you choose Me and My Will over this life, and so I will heal you every time. Joy and peace will return.

So you see, My Pearls, you have nothing of real value that anyone or any circumstance can take away. Do not let a spirit of fear influence you. Remain calm by meditating on the power I gave you. Meditate on the Love We share. Use the mind of your spirit and not the outer mind. Listen and wait. I will reveal the Truth of what is happening. Wait and be patient. You will see that what others mean for evil, I turn into good.

Joseph saw beauty, power, forgiveness, and the salvation of many come from evil intentions. He knew to remain calm, wait, and trust Me. He knew power, love, and a sound mind. He knew these, because he knew he was in an eternally binding covenant with Great Jehovah, Lord of the whole Earth. Who can stand and shake their fist at Great Jehovah without consequence? Who can strike Papa’s beloved sheep and win?

My Pearls, even in death you are victorious. Even the grave cannot hold you. If you physically die, you win. I will never leave you or forsake you. Remain with Me and We will walk through every minute of your life on Earth together. Nothing will escape My attention. You will always know My faithfulness. The power of My Love for you will keep you safe.

Do not be influenced by spirits of fear any longer. I always have a plan. I always work My plan. I always provide for My Pearls. I love you!

I AM A LION

(Jesus).
My Dear Pearls,
I Am a Lion. Do not forget that I roar and pursue My enemies. Who are My enemies? Those who seek to devour and enslave My people, and those who want to take My people prisoners, as they perpetuate lies about Me, are my enemies. Those who starve My people by preventing them from feeding in My green pastures of love and peace are My enemies. Pearls, stand and watch Me fight. Watch as I roar over My prey and come down to fight for Mount Zion (My Presence among My people).

I will not only defend Jerusalem (My people), but I will also deliver you from fear, doubt, and demonstrate My powerful Love for you. I will cover you and preserve you under the shelter of My Wings. I will preserve My Voice and Words. I will preserve My works and plans. I will preserve My Name and glory.

As a Lion, I will also flush out the hidden enemies and expose them. Watch and you will see Me take what has been secretly hidden in darkness and expose the sin by My Light. I will shine My Light, like a powerful flashlight, on the hearts of those who come against you. The inner secret sins they have hidden from view will be exposed for all to see. Then others will see the difference between the fruit of Holy Spirit and the fruit of darkness.

As I expose the hidden sin, I break the chains and bondage of that sin, when the person repents. The process of exposure and repentance breaks pride and serves to open the spirit of the person to My Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit then renews the inner being of that person, heals them, and they then can see Truth. Thus, the process of defending My Pearls culminates in the deliverance of the ones who repent when I expose their bondage.
I tell you this before it happens to build your faith and trust in Me.

Trust My Love for you. Trust My goodness. Trust My workings. Trust My plan. I take what Satan meant for evil and turn it for good. Stand, watch Me fight for you as a Lion. I love you, Pearls!

• Isaiah 31:1-5, especially vs. 4-5 Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, And rely on horses, Who trust in chariots because they are many, And in horsemen because they are very strong, But who do not look to the Holy One of Israel, Nor seek the Lord! Yet He also is wise and will bring disaster, And will not call back His words, But will arise against the house of evildoers, And against the help of those who work iniquity. Now the Egyptians are men, and not God; And their horses are flesh, and not spirit. When the Lord stretches out His hand, Both he who helps will fall, And he who is helped will fall down; They all will perish together. For thus the Lord has spoken to me: “As a lion roars, And a young lion over his prey (When a multitude of shepherds is summoned against him, He will not be afraid of their voice Nor be disturbed by their noise), So the Lord of hosts will come down To fight for Mount Zion and for its hill. Like birds flying about, So will the Lord of hosts defend Jerusalem. Defending, He will also deliver it; Passing over, He will preserve it.”

YOU ARE WHAT I WANTED

My Dear Little Pearls,
You are exactly what I always wanted. Before I created the world, I wanted you. You are what I had in mind all along. Your desire for intimacy with Me is intoxicating to Me. Your love for Me, that I tested and refined, is just what I wanted when I enacted the entire plan of creation and set all history into motion. Again, you are what I wanted all along. Your love and our intimacy were always My goal from the very beginning. My plan to have you is detailed and painful beyond comprehension, but worth every effort, because now I have what I was craving – you and our intimacy.

It is like a woman who is very hungry. She is so hungry she is shaking, but not just any meal will do. There is a particular delicacy she craves more than just sustaining food. Despite her hunger, she decides to turn down the easy-to-cook food and spend time, energy, and extra money to prepare the delicacy. She goes to the store, chops, dices, and slowly simmers the ingredients. After a long time and much effort, she finally has the food she was craving. She resisted the easy food, suffered hunger pangs, but in the end received her greatest desire – a wonderful dish.

Little Pearls, you are what I craved from the very beginning. From the moment I created the heavens and the Earth, you were My goal, My craving, and My reward. I could have settled for less, but I chose to suffer, until I had you. You, Little Pearls, are exactly what I wanted all this time. You fulfill Me, as I fulfill you! I love you.

TACTICS OF THE ENEMY

(Holy Spirit)
My Dear Pearls,
Life in the Spirit is not the same as life in the fleshly realm of Earth. When one has been living in the fleshly realm on Earth for many years, it is a difficult transition to living in the realm of the spirit. For example, you are used to using your senses and observing natural or earthly things that have physical substance. Your senses do not detect what else is in the area. They are of the flesh and can only detect what is of the flesh. Only your spiritual senses can detect the things that are in the realm of the spirit.

My Pearls, do not be fooled by the limited physical senses. Also, do not be fooled by those whose spirits are actually hosting spirits of darkness. You will see the evidence of those spirits when you examine the fruit of their lives – words, attitudes, purity, and whether or not there is unconditional love coming from their lives.

Pearls, evil is everywhere. You do not have to be afraid. Only remember who you are and Whose you are. Honesty and purity are Papa’s protection for you. When your words and actions are above reproach, then they cannot be used against you. Silence is also Papa’s protection for you. The enemy cannot twist your words in the ears of the listener, if you do not speak.

The tempter would love to draw you in to a confrontation by enticing you to defend yourself. Often a tactic against My Pearls is a sudden attack of hostile, angry accusation. This is meant to catch you off guard and trigger your flesh to want justice and fairness. This causes you to defend yourself in the quest for justice and a good opinion from others. Once you open your mouth to stop the injustice and defend your rightness, the trap closes around you.

My Pearls, fear is another bait in the enemy’s trap. Fear of things that could happen, fear of losing something or someone you value, fear of personal threat and safety are all pieces of bait in a trap. The spirit of fear is very strong. It paralyzes your physical mind and dominates your physical emotions. Fear can even paralyze your physical body. A spirit of fear is often used to stop My children from completing an assignment in Our Family Business. Fear causes Pearls to stop listening to and trusting Papa.

Pearls, whenever you are afraid, immediately do these things: rehearse Papa’s faithfulness, love for you, and great power. Rest. Relax. Fear wants you to take quick action. When you act quickly, you do not listen to Our Voice and follow Our directions. When you act quickly, you tend to make decisions based on earthly reasoning, rather than be guided by Me. When you are afraid, you are loving yourself more than others. It is very difficult to use Our weapon of Love when you are afraid.

Be calm. Do not speak, unless We give you the words. As soon as possible, get to a place where you can focus on Our Presence. Remember that you must relax. Wait. Be patient. No matter what the situation, know that We are with you. We walk through every step, every conversation, every circumstance with you. Keep calm and resist the temptation to project fearful happenings into your future. You do not know what tomorrow brings…if evil, then We are holding you and it will come to an end…if good, then you were a captive to a spirit of fear, which causes harm to your faith and potentially entices you to sin.

You are not without resources, My Pearls. Sing. Sing to Papa. Rehearse His promises. Bind the darkness around you and cast it out. Loose My weapons of the fruit of the Spirit. Remember Jesus’ great Love and desire for you. Slow down. As you slow down, enter into the Secret Place and remain there. Remember that the enemy is a liar and is deceiving his host, as well as you. Therefore, do not believe what you are hearing and seeing. Do not believe that these circumstances are tragic and hopeless. Nothing is beyond Papa’s reach.

The enemy would have you believe that you are out of time. I tell you, My Pearl, that Papa is the Owner of time. He is the Beginning and the End of all things. Therefore, understand that patience and endurance will carry you through the most fearful of circumstances. Papa is the Instigator of change. He changes the seasons of nature and of your lives. He also changes hearts and circumstances. The changes may come slowly, but they will come.

So, My Pearls, if you will be obedient, calm, quiet, discreet, patient, and endure, knowing that change will come, then you can successfully battle fear. There is no circumstance that Papa cannot use for good. Suffering is difficult and painful, but it makes My Pearls humble, meek, compassionate, and beautiful. Persecution is hard, but it drives you deeper into Jesus’ Arms. Persecution stops other distractions and causes you to focus solely on Us. When you put all your attention on Us, then We can teach you, change you, and comfort you. We can bring the Scriptures you memorized to your spirit and they will be like a life raft to hold on to.

A spirit of fear is always accompanied by lying spirits. These spirits would have you believe that We are no longer near you. They will tell you that, since you do not feel Us, We must have moved away, and no longer see or hear you. Pearls, nothing can ever remove Us or Our Love from you. Sometimes when a spirit of fear attacks you, and you were enticed out of the Secret Place and into the outer world to defend yourself, you cannot sense Our Presence. That is when you must rely on your knowledge of Our Love for you. Refuse to believe a word that fear speaks to you. Repel every word with the knowledge of Our Love. Be quiet, patient, and wait. We are there. We will carry you through each situation, one step at a time. As you relax, you will sense Our Presence once more.

Remember this, My Pearls. Papa has a plan. Papa always works His plan. Papa’s plan is in control over the enemy’s plan. Papa’s plan often uses the enemy’s plan. Papa’s plan usually includes lessons for you and those around you. Papa’s plan always succeeds.

You are Our Pearls. We will never let you go. You are ultimately the safest people on earth. The enemy cannot take from you what really matters – Our Love. Therefore, rejoice, My Pearls. Have compassion on those around you who do not know Our great Love and power. Be tenderhearted toward your persecutors. Do not take the bait of unforgiveness. Instead, humbly acknowledge that you were once used by the enemy to bring pain to others.

Do, Dear Ones, remain in the Secret Place. Converse with Us. Let your outside words be loving and few. Rest in Our Love. Sing to Us. Remember Our promises. Be very patient. Settle down and endure, knowing that Papa has a plan that will eventually bring change. Take authority, and bind and cast out darkness. Loose My Spirit of Love and Truth. Serve your tormentors. Serve them and show your good will toward them. Retire to privacy with Us often and soak in Our Presence.

Spirits of darkness cannot withstand all these resources, Pearls. Papa will reveal His plan when the time is right. Just be patient. We will walk this journey together, My Pearls. I love you.
