ROCK
HARD FAITH

HEARD
RIDDLE: Save the kingdom. See it through your eyes. Rock
hard faith. Belly up. Turtle shell support you. Rule the
world upside down. In your pocket found a key."
[This
was the Lord’s comment to the fact I was feeling upside
down like a turtle on its back and my feet waving in the
air! He was saying that I had the authority to change my
position by using His keys to the kingdom. Matt 16:19]

THE
TURTLE
DREAM: A
good friend of the family had gathered his friends
around him and he was giving them farewells and gifts.
He turned to me and said he had something special for
me. He told me to remember the turtle, because it was
the one that won the race, not the hare. Then in the
dream I saw a vision of a turtle. When I awoke, my Dad
called and told me that this same good friend had just
died.
I
pondered the turtle and the Lord continued to give me
quickened thoughts about this "gift" I had been given.
At a later time the Lord also told me that He was going
to make me "Rock hard." I was not sure what that meant
either.
One day
I was sitting at a kitchen table with two ladies telling
them about these things, and they both said in unison,
"Just like the turtle shell!" They were speaking of the
term rock hard. It was a divine connection in
confirmations, because they too had received visions of
the turtle. Then one of them got up from the table and
showed me the turtle on her kitchen sink shelf. As we
discussed these things, we understood the Lord was
wanting to make our wills rock hard, unwavering, and
unbending when it came to telling the enemy NO. And the
three of us did go through several years of this
specific training.

QUICKENED FACTS
My son
told me that big turtles have no natural enemies, and
that is why they grow so big and so old. He said when in
danger, they draw in and hide! (I love that) They are
too tough to eat (devoured). Rock hard! The only thing
that can happen to them is you-know-what... upside down
on its back, just like the word sifted. Wonderful, just
wonderful, just like I feel. "Save the kingdom. See it
through her eyes. Rock hard faith. Belly up. Turtle
shell support you. Rule the world upside down. In my
pocket found a key."

Much gain in the heavenlies because of the persistence.
Strong faith brought reverberations. You’re hearing Me.
Not upside down like you think. Believe. Much depends

listen.
It's all
right little one. Do not fear. Not hearing static. My

Doing it. Peace. Mine. That's your key.

Stronger. In the power of His might. Fighting the good
fight of faith.
Eph
6:10-11 KJV
Finally,
my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of
his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may
be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
1 Tim
6:11-12 AMP
But as
for you, O man of God, flee from all these things; aim
at and pursue righteousness (right standing with God and
true goodness), godliness (which is the loving fear of
God and being Christlike), faith, love, steadfastness
(patience), and gentleness of heart. Fight the good
fight of the faith; lay hold of the eternal life to
which you were summoned and [for which] you confessed
the good confession [of faith] before many witnesses.

WORD TO
PONDER: ROCK HARD FAITH
You may
feel as though you have been tossed upside down by evil
storms, but I want you to know that I am pleased with
you! I AM teaching you how to stand and to become rock
hard in your faith. There are many ways to overcome the
evil one and the one above all is your shield of faith.
It is growing strong and unyielding. You are fighting
the good fight of faith, dear one.
Pursue
righteousness, godliness, faith, love and patience.
Remain gentle with all men, but set your face as flint
against the enemy. Remember that walking into your
promises is occupied one step at a time. If I called you
to run full speed, you would collapse exhausted before
the finish line. As you learn to trust Me every day and
learn to stand strong against that which defies My Words
in your life, you are growing strong enough to maintain
your promises once you reach them.
