DON’T FALL, INSTEAD HUMBLE YOUR OWN SELF
This year in 2008, I have heard the words, humility, bow
down, lay low, humble, etc so many times. I have felt
the Lord was dealing with pride, arrogance, man’s
promotion (instead of God’s promotion), and
independence. However when the Lord gave me the dream
where the angel pointed for me to go down the stairs in
order to eat at God’s restaurant, it really made me stop
and think, why was I supposed to go downstairs? In the
natural I have a very hard time managing stairs due to
knee and hip problems.

OCTOBER 31st, 2008. I went to bed in
prayer and intercession over this night where the
demonic are loosed upon God’s people. I had a vision
where I saw a group of warlocks descending a steep
stairway, one step at a time in unison. They were
dressed in black robes with hoods and masks and you
could not see their faces. I noted that they were about
9 feet tall and was deciding whether they were demonic
spirits or people underneath the robes. Still in the
vision I then realized that these were people who were
walking on stilts underneath their black robes to make
themselves appear as very tall.
When I came out of the vision I felt that the Lord had
revealed to me that the curse against God’s people was
to make them fall and stumble. Since that time I have
had several confirmations to this. A pastor’s wife fell
from the stairs and broke her elbow. Another person
accidently dropped her baby from the top of the stairs
and the baby fell to the bottom. The baby was examined
and perfectly fine, but only because of intercessory
prayer over those specific stairs prior to the
accident.

BIG PERCHES FALLING
===================
I saw really big perches falling, and heard the psalm of
David
(Psalm37:7-20)
(7) Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; Do not
fret because of him who prospers in his way, Because of
the man who brings wicked schemes to pass. (8) Cease
from anger, and forsake wrath; Do not fret--it only
causes harm. (9) For evildoers shall be cut off; But
those who wait on the Lord, They shall inherit the
earth. (10) For yet a little while and the wicked shall
be no more; Indeed, you will look carefully for his
place, But it shall be no more. (11) But the meek shall
inherit the earth, And shall delight themselves in the
abundance of peace. (12) The wicked plots against the
just, And gnashes at him with his teeth. (13) The Lord
laughs at him, For He sees that his day is coming. (14)
The wicked have drawn the sword And have bent their bow,
To cast down the poor and needy, To slay those who are
of upright conduct. (15) Their sword shall enter their
own heart, And their bows shall be broken. (16) A
little that a righteous man has Is better than the
riches of many wicked. (17) For the arms of the wicked
shall be broken, But the Lord upholds the righteous.
(18) The Lord knows the days of the upright, And their
inheritance shall be forever. (19) They shall not be
ashamed in the evil time, And in the days of famine they
shall be satisfied. (20) But the wicked shall perish;
And the enemies of the Lord, Like the splendor of the
meadows, shall vanish. Into smoke they shall vanish
away. (Psalm37:7-20)
We will yet see that the "Esthers" will be requited, the
Hamans hang on their own gallows, and the Mordecais come
in position next to The King.

CONFIRMATION HUMILITY 12/05/08:
QUOTES FROM CHUCK PIERCE

Eph 4:7-10
But to each one of us grace was given according to
the measure of Christ's gift. 8 Therefore He says: "When
He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave
gifts to men." (Now this, "He ascended" — what does
it mean but that He also first descended into the lower
parts of the earth? 10 He who descended is also the One
who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might
fill all things.)
Deut 8:2-3 NKJV
And you shall remember that the LORD your God led you
all the way these forty years in the wilderness , to
humble you and test you, to know what was in your heart,
whether you would keep His commandments or not. 3 So He
humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with
manna which you did not know nor did your fathers know,
that He might make you know that man shall not live by
bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds
from the mouth of the LORD.
{End Chuck Pierce Quote}
CONCLUSION: There are many different kinds of
strategies in warfare. I feel the Lord is saying that
when we are suffering a time when it appears we are
under the foot of the enemy, we need to first bow low
and submit to God, before we can resist the devil and he
will flee. In those places where we do not submit to
God, we are vulnerable. As we humble ourselves and
submit to God, He will then turn the tide and cause our
enemies to fall instead.
James 4:7-10 NKJV
Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will
flee from you. 8 Draw near to God and He will draw near
to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your
hearts, you double-minded. 9 Lament and mourn and weep!
Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to
gloom. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord,
and He will lift you up.
Deut 8:15-17 NKJV
...who led you through that great and terrible
wilderness, in which were fiery serpents and scorpions
and thirsty land where there was no water; who brought
water for you out of the flinty rock; 16 who fed you in
the wilderness with manna, which your fathers did not
know, that He might humble you and that He might test
you, to do you good in the end — 17 then you say in
your heart, 'My power and the might of my hand have
gained me this wealth.'
WORD O’ GRAM HUMBLE MYSELF 12/05/08
Humbled
before all,
Unassuming
and unpretentious, I choose to walk
Modestly
and mildly.
Bowing
low and begging, I
Lower
myself to a Little place where I
Esteem
others more worthy.
Meekly I
lay down my rights and say
Yes to
God’s abasement and stay
Submissive
as His Simple Servant.
Embarrassment
is dead.
Lowly I
bow, for water always flows to the lowest places.
Flattery
is not heard, only God’s very tiny voice.
Isa 57:15 NKJV
For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits
eternity, whose name is Holy: "I dwell in the high and
holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble
spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble , And to
revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Prov 16:19 NKJV
Better to be of a humble spirit with the lowly, Than
to divide the spoil with the proud. |
