Glory. Come to Me, all of you who have a desire to
fellowship with Me. I will make known to you the deepest

Lord and My God, though I fall far from You, You are
near. You are the Captain of my life. My dear children,
I will surely destroy all that comes to draw You from
Me. Hold on, the fires that kindle will come. The devil
seeks to silence the utterance I send forth to you. He
is cunning and will chisel away at your armor to try to
take from you what I wish to give. But, I have overcome
the evil one and will give you strength, and you shall
know what will shortly come to pass." D.

behold you shall marvel for My righteousness shall

naked. You are clothed with my righteousness. You have
My Presence in you. You will now feel My joy. Prepare
your hearts with My words. You know who you are. Don't
be scared, they walked through fire. Bring all eyes to
me, only I can make them see. I am showing you this to
help you get yourselves out of the way. Your light will
shine because you are Thine. This the Lord says." Tabitha

2002: "I
felt the Presence of God very heavily during praise and
worship services. As we were singing, the Presence of
God was ministering to me. The Lord spoke to me, saying
- "I look down to see whom I may fill with My spirit.
Who will I pour My spirit upon? Who will make room?" The
Lord went on to let me know that He is not hidden, but
to seek and we will find. The Lord actually did it in a
humorous way by referring to the game of Hide and Seek -
that we are not playing Hide and Seek. The Lord
definitely wants us to do more seeking. The Lord does
not hide from His children. If there is any hiding it is
we who are doing it. the Lord wanted me to know that He
wants to fill us completely with His spirit and that we
should not hide from Him. The Lord wants to be all and
in all."Donald

the melody of My heart, and they listen and obey. And
because I read their hearts and find their love for Me,
they shall find Me for I am near to the righteous." D.
Gordon
November
2000: "The
hand that formed the encirclement of greatness in the
heavens, a home for the light,- showering stars and
angelic beings, is the hand that was pierced for you and
me. The heart that rejoiced at their appearance bled for
my sin. His eyes beheld the glory of the heavenly and
the reproach of men. He has trod the fiery stones in the
presence of the Almighty as well as earth. Jesus has
known the greatness of holiness and He has known the
condemnation of flesh. Split between two worlds before
the foundation was, His destiny certain but its
entailments undesired. Still, He suffers at the
carelessness of faithless hearts until the great and
terrible day of the Lord when these hearts will be
judged. Jesus exceeds beyond their disdain and
introduces the life that breaks forth from His own
disgrace. The Father is pleased at the success of His
plan and the saints rejoice for their newly redeemed
lives found by the grace of God in Christ Jesus.
Hallelujah! And amen." Sarah
Lasiter
November
2000: "How
can I show them of my gentleness? How can I show them of
my love? Does creation itself not testify of me? How
many times would I have covered them in my mercy and
poured out my blessings upon them. But far have they
removed themselves from my presence. I will again remove
them from their land, and scatter them among their
enemies. Then will they yearn for my ways and My
presence they will seek." D.
Gordon
November
2000: "Every
day the world is darker than before. And each day our
light will become more evident. A lamp is slightly
noticed in a well-lit place, but when the lights go out
and darkness surrounds,- the light becomes brilliant. So
our light will become life to those who enter into its
brilliance." Sarah

Fall
2000: "Even
as I have given your hands to serve you, I have given
them to you to lift in holy praise. I have given you
feet to carry you to and fro. I have given them to you
to be shod with the purpose of the gospel. Even as I
have given you eyes to see in flesh, I have given you
eyes to see my face. And even as I have given you a
heart to love others, I have given you a heart to serve
Me." Sarah

May
2001: "I
am near, and My holy things shall not be defiled. I will
rule with a rod of iron. The earth shall be filled with
the knowledge of My presence, but not all who seek Me
shall be near Me. My holy ones who hear and obey My
voice, they shall be near to Me. And they shall receive
the fulness of My presence. My holiness shall clothe
them forever." D.
Gordon
May
2001: "Hear
O' Israel, the voice of the Lord is screaming out!
Repent of your evil, idolatrous ways. Turn to Me while
there is yet time. My fury, My wrath will be poured out.
So very soon is My coming. O' that you would only
listen, hear and obey My voice while I yet call, so that
you would be spared. My reward is great. My fury is very
terrible!"
D. Gordon
February
1999: "The
words being sent to you are for your own strength and
will become your song in the days to come. Do not be
afraid to speak forth My words child. Rivers of Living
Water will spurt forth for all who are thirsty for the
waters of righteousness. You will be filled to
overflowing and will revive those I will put in your
path. My Body will eat of the peaceful fruit of
righteousness as My chastisement takes effect. The
purging must come first. It is not pleasant but those
who put their trust in Me will endure.Those who seek
peace and security now instead of suffering for My Name
are not worthy to be called My disciples. Calling upon
My Name means much more that what many have been taught
in these last days. Study the third Commandment more
thoroughly. These are not empty words! There is a
principle that flows much deeper than the natural eye
can see. Call upon My spirit of truth to anoint your
eyes with salve that you may see what is only revealed
by the spirit of truth. My Commandments are a screen
which all must pass in order to be useful bread meal. A
fine screen in which only fine meal can pass. I have
made a provision for all in My Word. But do not take
time to sift and prepare -they leave it to others to do
so. Each must work out your own salvation with fear and
trembling. Do not be forgetful of what I have brought to
pass. My Words are life. Take, eat and drink of My
spirit and live. Do you have ears to hear?" Debbie
