RHEMA 3/14/07  IN THE PITS??

HEARD:  Focus, keep it on Me.  Not on your pain.  Circumstances.

HEARD:  That is my pit stop.  Discouraged prophets.  Frequent pit stops.

Smoothing out your road.  Bump.  Glitch.  Fill.   It’s a long road.  But the journey is worth it.   

Ps 69:14-16  NKJV

Deliver me out of the mire, And let me not sink; Let me be delivered from those who hate me, And out of the deep waters. Let not the floodwater overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up; And let not the pit shut its mouth on me. Hear me, O LORD, for Your lovingkindness is good; Turn to me according to the multitude of Your tender mercies.

DREAM:  My family were with me looking through a clothes rack for something fancy for me to wear for a funeral.  One wanted to make it a party and dress up.  They were looking at the dark blue satin dresses that are my colors but I was looking at the black ones because it was a funeral. 

PIX:  I saw a giant copy machine and it was copying huge blue prints of some kind of plan. 

HEARD:  Muscle.  Most of this is outdated.  No, never will be outdated.  Will be kept for posterity.  My son.  A complete man.  Born of the Spirit and washed in His blood.  Favored.  My son.

HEARD:  Dealing with your shortcomings.  I am NOT dealing with you.  I AM helping you change into My image.  There’s such a difference.  The difference is how and why.  [Then I thought of the fact that the difference is His love, then I heard an emphatic:]  YES. 

WORD TO PONDER  3/14/07  THAT ROAD MAP IS NOT THE PITS

My dear one, turn your heart and change your focus off death and onto life.  You see the bumps in the road and fall into the pits.  You think I am dealing with you, but I am not.  I use everything in your life for GOOD.  I AM changing you with My love, I AM changing you because I love you.  I AM helping you overcome the pits and bumps in your life by filling them and smoothing your road. 

The road map, that vision that you have cried out to Me for years to receive...  It is very simple, the plan that I have for you is grow up into the fullness of My spiritual DNA.  Your desires, needs and abilities are changing because You are My Son, My daughter and you belong to Me.  Your destiny is different than the world, because you are My family.  I totally adore you, now change your focus off the death and onto the life, the future and plans I have for you are for your good and not for evil. 

Ps 143:7-8  NKJV

Answer me speedily, O LORD; My spirit fails! Do not hide Your face from me, Lest I be like those who go down into the pit.  Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, for in You do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to You.

John 10:10 NKJV

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly. 

Isa 40:4-5 NKJV

 Every valley shall be exalted  and every mountain and hill brought low; The crooked places shall be made straight and the rough places smooth; The glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken."

FUN CONFIRMATION

Well the Lord certainly has a wonderful sense of humor.  He really set my day up with the “Pit” Word.  About 10 minutes after posting this Word to the forum, Wayne and I got in the car for some errands.  He brought a coupon for a free car wash and my mouth dropped.  It said “PIT STOP”  Free Car Wash.  I asked him about it and he said he just grabbed it in case we had time to do the car wash, as he had received the coupon the other day from Pit Stop.  I am laughing and my ears are wiggling.

After the car wash and lunch, Wayne and I were praying in the car.  The traffic slowed down to a stop and I glanced to the store on my right.  It was quite a double take.  We were right in front of the PIT STOP, which was several miles away from the car wash!

HILARIOUS IN WALLMART:  I am worn out with our errands and starting to whine.  Wayne says to me, “Are you getting.... grumpy?”  There was a long pause after the word, getting.  He was trying to choose his word carefully!  I was chuckling about that and then I heard the Lord say:

HEARD;  Stabilize her.

So now we are in line at the check stand and Wayne sees the stuff I am getting.  There is a little purse pill container and on one side it says AM and the other says PM.  So Wayne says to me as though continuing the conversation about being grumpy, “Do you have PM?”

Immediately I am thinking PMS and trying to come up with a retort, since that all that stuff got yanked out 10 years ago. Then I was wondering if there was something like Post Menopausal symptoms.  So I said,

“Yes I have Post Misery.”

Wayne laughed because he was thinking that this whole thing was going to be added onto the POST and I was laughing and said into the microphone on the way home, “Well thus ends the post on being in the Pits.  It started out a comforting Word and now it has ended in Post Misery!!!
