8/20/15 GRACE FOR FUTURE HURDLES IN COLD CLIMATES

HEARD AND SAW:  On the horizon.  I saw a skier skiing back and forth between deep moguls.  He faced each mogul without hesitation and had perfect form as he passed around each one and through their path.  I sensed the Lord was saying there would be snow and bumps to overcome this winter, since I had been praying over what is coming.

COMMENT:  I snow skied in my younger years.  Moguls are the humps and bumps on a ski slope.  The way to properly bypass tall or deep moguls without going directly on top of them (and thus flying through the air and splatting!) is to bend one’s knees really deep almost as though sitting, and lean into the corner of the mogul as you use it to turn and get aligned for the next mogul.  Keeping the knees flexible and not locked is a key to tackling the up and down movement.  Conquering moguls is not a straight path downhill, rather it is a series of changing directions back and forth to make it down safely.

Usually a slope that has moguls has many of them in line and not just one.  Spiritually speaking it is passing through a season of hurdles, learning how to bypass them and keep going.  One other thing, often going downhill or descending represents a time of humility and humbling oneself.

UPDATE CONFIRMATIONS:  I have heard from 2 different places that this will be a deep snowy winter for the east. 

WORD TO PONDER:  I WILL GIVE YOU GRACE TO MANEUVER PAST HINDRANCES  8/20/15

Even in cold climates and difficult winter seasons, I will give you grace to bypass all the mountains you see before you.  Prepare yourselves.  Position yourself and align with Me as you face the path or detours before you.  Sink deeply before Me through prayer dear hearts.  Do not become settled in one direction, rather be willing to change courses as you move back and forth between the hurdles. 

Repent and change in the places I have been bringing to your attention.  Humble yourself, do not trust in your own strength to tackle hurdles, lest you fall.  I will always make a way to escape and provide detours.  Pray that you will not be given over to evil, but delivered from temptation.  Flee the works of the flesh and soulish desires.  Run to Me, for I AM your answer to everything you face.

Proverbs 4:11-14 I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. 12 When you go, your steps shall not be hindered; and when you run, you shall not stumble. 13 Take fast hold of instruction; let her not go: keep her; for she is your life. 14 Enter not into the path of the wicked, and go not in the way of evil men.

John 11:9-10 Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walks in the day, he stumbles not, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because there is no light in him.
