12/17/13  LESSONS:  RETURN TO SAFE BOUNDARIES

 

HEARD:  If I was in school, how do I do it?

 

VISION:  I saw a man running back up an exit to get onto the freeway.

[If you departed away from God's will, then simply turnaround and return to where you got off.   Return to the last sure Word you heard from the Lord.]

HEARD:  I saw lots of Joshua rhema for school.  To see you through this. 

 

IMPARTATION:  It was imparted to me that Joshua rhema was related to the enemy sliming God’s people.

 

Zechariah 3:3-5 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel. 4 And he answered and spoke unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused your iniquity to pass from you, and I will clothe you with rich apparel. 5 And I said, Let them set a clean turban upon his head. So they set a clean turban upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the LORD stood by.

 

HEARD:  Such a day.  Weeping and rejoicing.  We want this.  Courage. 

 

PARABLE:  Today I saw this graphic on Facebook, and it reminded me of an amazing parable of Cally, our cat: 

 

 

SAFE BOUNDARIES

One day I witnessed a very strong parable about finding safe boundaries.  This was one of those times when the Lord speaks His Word to us through His creation. I was watching Cally our cat. She had the daily habit of walking across the street and disappearing into the tall field of grass. It was only after she had her babies that we discovered what she was doing. She was hunting for mice.

 

After the babies were born she would carry the mice gently in her mouth like a kitten, and bring them back live to her babies. As she approached her babies, she would drop the live mouse at their feet and they would jump and scamper all around chasing it. At that age I never did see them actually eat a mouse, but they did learn to catch them and play with them. I shuddered to think how many live mice she was bringing home that were hiding around our home.

 

One day I saw Cally walk out to the end of the driveway. She was obviously headed to her field. Her kittens followed her like a string of ducks. Cally got half way across the street then turned her head and saw her kittens. She turned around and walked back to the driveway and faced her kittens head on. Her kittens did not run up to her for love, play or milk like they normally did. They stood still in their tracks just as Cally was doing to them. After they were standing head-on still like this, she turned around and took a few steps in the street, then turned her head again to see if they were following. Sure enough the string of kitty-ducks were moving to follow. She returned to the driveway and repeated the gesture, and they stood still. She did this 3 times and so did they!!!! She was not getting through to them. The last time she came back to the driveway, her hair stood out and she hissed at them! Fur balls at attention… they did not follow her across the street! They returned to our yard and scampered about.

 

BUILDING SAFE BOUNDARIES FOR THE NEXT GENERATION  10/19/12

I AM calling Mothers and Fathers to build a nest for the coming harvest.  These will be equipping schools to dispatch another generation to be My worldwide witnesses.   Yes build it and they will come.  It is laborious and expensive yet I will provide for and sustain My work on behalf of those children who are yet to come.

 

I AM calling parents to establish safe boundaries, where the parameters will be well set and grounded in My Word and My love. Check the boundaries, then double check them. Let there be no breaches in the hedge of protection. As they build My kingdom and serve My children, I will maintain all that they put their hands to do.

 

2 Chron 16:9 KJV

For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him.

 

Deut 32:10-12 NKJV

"He found him in a desert land and in the wasteland, a howling wilderness; He encircled him, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of His eye. As an eagle stirs up its nest, hovers over its young, spreading out its wings, taking them up, carrying them on its wings,  so the Lord alone led him, and there was no foreign god with him.

 

ALARMING LESSONS:  JUST SAY NO  5/28/08

Dear child, sometimes I allow you to go through a very painful lesson because your mindset is so strong that nothing else will get your attention.  If you are relentless in going in the wrong direction, then I AM relentless.  You will learn the painful lesson that to the same degree you resist My voice, I will do what is necessary to gain your attention.  My red light will flash and I will turn on the alarm in your life and wake you out of your slumber.

 

Precious one, those times may be very painful lessons.  But I AM a good God and I want you guarded and protected within safe boundaries by walking in righteous, holy choices.  The world is in opposition to My kingdom, My heart.  It will burn you if you touch the wrong places.  Making unholy choices opens demonic doors that are hard to close once opened.  Learn to turn your back on temptation and just say NO.  It is better to be safe than sorry when it comes to questionable boundaries.

 

Prov 15:16 NKJV

Better is a little with the fear of the LORD, than great treasure with trouble.

 

Prov 27:5-6 NKJV

Open rebuke is better  than love carefully concealed.  Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.

 

Prov 28:6 NKJV

Better is the poor who walks in his integrity than one perverse in his ways, though he be rich.

 

Eccl 7:2-5 NKJV

Better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for that is the end of all men; And the living will take it to heart.  Sorrow is better than laughter, for by a sad countenance the heart is made better.  The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.  It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise than for a man to hear the song of fools.
