RHEMA  1/29/10   PRESSING THROUGH UNTIL THE BURDEN LIFTS 1/29/11

TRANCE VISION:  I was driving towards the school.  A car passed me and flashed its lights and told me to turn on my lights because it had just driven through a huge darkness.  I saw the direction of the black sky over the school area and knew it was there, but my eyes were closed.  I was driving with my eyes closed and so I came to a stop and forced myself to open my eyes.  When I did that, I came out of the trance vision and literally forced my eyes open.

PIX:  I saw the color purple violet that looked like the colors in a bruise. I have had visions of the past where the sky looks like that and it represents principalities.

HEARD:  The Word of the Lord.  Crushing times.  Despair.  To heave off. Now what do we do?  Take authority over the depression and watch it disappear. 

PRESSING THROUGH UNTIL THE BURDEN LIFTS 1/29/11

The last couple weeks I have been hearing so many people mention they are dealing with waves of hopelessness, despair and depression.  After conquering oppression through constant tongues and calling upon the Name of the Lord I broke past it myself.  In so doing, I was able to face something monumental that I was not looking forward to, and most of it is behind me now.  What a RELIEF.  He has brought me to a better, lighter place with new hope and alignment.  I share this today because after having pressed through until the heaviness broke free (and I truly pressed through the burden of my soul for days)... I now understand something on this side that I didn't see in the "pressing" time.  Sometimes He allows darkness to press in, so that it drives us straight to the Lord and we get a desperate grip in the Spirit to find resolution.  When we press in like that, the power of God literally catapults us to the next level. 

2 Cor 4:7-12 NKJV

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. 8 We are hard-pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed —  10 always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body. 11 For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus' sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
