Shalom, church
I will take my leave now for the work is done
If I could have stayed - I would, but I have finally experienced
that for which I always dreaded
I've tried to protect my heart so that it would always be open to the Father
but things have happened of recent and I couldn't look at Him
I always believed that when people were walking purely in their Anointing
and completely on the right path with God
that there would be Love
but that is not always the case
and now, the Love that I hoped to find once people were in alignment
I no longer hope for or believe in as a whole
It's still a competitive world out there
I guess even on God's path
I saw in the vision where the Father was looking at me
but I put my head down and couldn't look at Him
I said, "Will You stop loving me, too, like others have?"
I can help people on the path and all is fine
until they get what they need from me
then so many turn around and push me down to destroy me
and I don't understand that for I would willingly give them all that I have
This last betrayal was symbolic of so many
and I guess I just don't understand the Kingdom
I always thought that the true goal was Love
that we would Love God and each other
but . . .

I need to leave - BLAST OUT as God says
and believe in His Love once more

AND CHILD,
DID I NOT DESTROY YOUR HEART FOR MY PURPOSES?
DID I NOT TAKE FROM YOU ALL YOUR HOPE?
BUT I AM THE ONE WHO WILL RETURN IT ALL, TOO
YOU WILL BE ABLE TO LOOK ME IN THE FACE SOON
AND NOT TURN AWAY
YOU DIDN'T EXPECT TO BE BETRAYED
BY ONE WHO FOLLOWS ME SO CLOSELY
BUT I ALLOWED IT
FOR YOUR WORK IN THIS TOWN IS DONE
AND I HAVE NO OTHER WAY TO REMOVE YOU
BUT TO REMOVE YOUR HEART FIRST
YOUR TIES OF THE HEART ARE STRONGER THAN LIFE, ITSELF
AND IF WE ARE TO MOVE ON
YOU MUST COME WITH ME WHOLLY
LET NO PART OF YOU REMAIN HERE
NONE
I LOVE YOU, CHILD
YOU WILL FEEL MY TEARS THIS EVENING
AND KNOW THAT I SORROWED
AS I SET YOU UP
BUT YOU WILL ALSO KNOW MY EMBRACE IN A WAY
THAT WILL BOTH REMOVE YOUR HEART FROM THIS AREA
AND PLACE IT SAFELY WITHIN MINE FOR YOUR TRAVELS
I LOVE YOU, SERVANT OF THE MOST HIGH GOD
YOU HAVE SURELY HONORED ME AND I WILL HONOR YOU
BEFORE ALL

I SHOWED YOU A VISION AFTER YOUR HEARTACHE
OF YOUR WORK TO COME
YOU WERE AN ARROW-MAKER THAT WOULD MAKE AN ARROW
AND SHOOT IT FIRMLY INTO A BUNCH OF GRAPES
AND THE WINE WOULD POUR OUT
AND YOU WOULD MOVE ON
I WILL NO LONGER LET THE PEOPLE HURT YOU, CHILD
YOU WILL MAKE THE ARROW
SHOOT THE ARROW
AND MOVE ON BEFORE THEIR FLESH RISES UP
COMMISSIONING ONLY TAKES A MINUTE OR SO
AND YOU LOVE TO MOVE AT TOP SPEED
SO, SPEAK THE WORDS
TAP INTO MY POWER
AND WE WILL GET THE WORK DONE IN A HURRY
NO REPERCUSSIONS
NO PROBLEMS
AND YES, CHILD, THE GOAL IS LOVE
BUT SO MANY FORGET THAT
 EVEN ON MY PATH
YOU ARE TO FOLLOW MY LOVE
AND BELIEVE IN MY LOVE AGAIN
EVEN THOUGH MY PEOPLE FAIL YOU TIME AND TIME AGAIN
I AM LOVE
AND I DO LOVE YOU DEARLY

COME CLOSE
LET THE BRICKS REST ON THE LAND
LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU CAME AND WENT
AND LOVED AND PRAYED AND WEPT AND HOPED
AND SOMEDAY
YOU WILL RETURN


*********************

One last word for the Captain
on a day always set aside for his Commissioning ---

You come and go
Your people come and go
but rest your eyes for one moment of time
and see, if you will, how I see
and what I see
I see children rising up to form an Army
An Army which you will command at times
I see adults laying their lives down to help these young people
I see a building - a new building where all will be pure and right
I see you - completely in your Calling
Sailing the ship across the ocean blue of His Love
Preaching the 20 sermons you were always meant to preach
Singing His songs of Glory and
Calling forth new ships all over this world
That's what I see
and that is why I have "bothered" you for so long

Happy Birthday, Captain!
Sail on!


My charge to you, friend,
ISAIAH  55
and to your church
for God's promises are true
and what you have read will happen
and all that has been decreed will become a reality
right before your eyes
Shalom

4 pm   ----   7/1/00

I see that the bricks have been removed, God

NO COMMENT

Hey, God, where would they put 96 bricks?
What does it mean?
Does it simply mean that they don't believe the words
or that they don't want to hear the words because they are from me
or is it because they don't believe in You?
Do You think that they believe that because they took the bricks
away that the words won't come true?
Come on, God - please talk!

WE WILL LAY BRICKS AGAIN, CHILD
TO REPLACE THE ONES FOR WHICH WERE TAKEN AWAY
BUT THESE BRICKS WILL REPRESENT THE RESULT OF THEIR ACTIONS
THESE BRICKS WILL SURELY BRING FORTH A REVOLUTION
AND WHERE WILL THESE BRICKS BE LAID?
WHERE, INDEED?
WHERE NO HUMAN HANDS CAN TOUCH THEM
AS YOU SAW THE PLACE WHERE THE BRICKS HAD BEEN THIS DAY
YOUR HEART BROKE
BUT I HELD YOU TIGHTLY AGAINST ME
AND SHOWED YOU THE BRICKS IN THE HEAVENLIES
THEY ARE NOT TRULY GONE
JUST TAKEN FROM THE HUMAN REALM
WHAT ELSE WILL BE TAKEN FROM THE HUMAN REALM?
ONLY TIME WILL TELL
SERVANT, WERE YOU FAITHFUL TO ALL THAT I SPOKE TO YOU?

Yes

THEN WHY DO YOU CARE AFTER THE FACT?

I fear for those who took the bricks away

AND ISN'T THAT ONLY MY BUSINESS FOR RIGHT NOW?

Yes

BUT I TELL YOU THE TRUTH
BRICKS WILL BE LAID FOR THOSE WHO TOOK THE BRICKS AWAY
I KNOW JUSTICE
AND JUSTICE WILL BE DONE
DO YOU FEEL LIKE SAMSON THIS NIGHT, SERVANT?

In totality
For I know that You are about to wipe out the "Philistines"
and I have pretty much lost all compassion for them

THAT WAS THE PLAN
STAND OUT OF MY WAY
REPORT BACK WHEN THEY CALL YOU
THEY SURELY WILL

SHALOM, CHILD, FOR I TAUGHT YOU A VERY IMPORTANT LESSON
THROUGH THESE BATTLES
FIGHT ONLY THROUGH THE SPIRIT - NOT THE FLESH
AND YOU WILL NOT TRULY BE HURT
YOUR HEART BROKE BY THE BETRAYAL
BUT I HEALED IT SOLIDLY
AND SET YOU FORTH TO INVOKE MY COMMANDS
ALL IS WELL IN THE KINGDOM, CHILD
ALL
AND JUST AS YOU PUT ON THE ABORTION MESSAGE
AND CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACTIONS AGAINST MY INNOCENT CHILDREN
I HOLD THIS CHURCH ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS AGAINST YOU
AND I WILL REPAY
FULL-TERM
SHALOM

LET THE FEAR COME TO THE CHURCH
LET THE PROBLEMS MOUNT
LET THE FINANCES BE NO MORE
LET THE LEADERSHIP LEAVE
LET THE SNAKE BE TREAD UPON UNTIL HE IS GONE FOREVER
FROM THE LAND
LET THE ONE WHO RULES THE SOULS OF THE LAND
RULE UNTIL THEY CRY OUT IN REPENTANCE
YOUR JOB IS DONE ON THE LAND
LAY THE NEW BRICKS
AND KNOW THAT JUSTICE IS BEING DONE
WHILE YOU ARE AWAY
SHALOM?

No, something is still missing
Why won't love change some people?
I loved them with Your Love and did all that I was suppose to do
and their response is still evil

IT DEPENDS ON WHO RULES THEIR SOULS
SATAN WILL ALWAYS HATE NO MATTER HOW MUCH LOVE IS SHOWN
YOU CONTINUE TO LOVE EVEN THOUGH YOU KNOW THAT THEY
MUST BE PUNISHED
AND WHEN THEY CALL YOU BACK
YOU WILL STILL LOVE THEM
THAT IS MY LOVE
AND MY LOVE WILL WIN IN THE END
IT WILL FOR THOSE WHO ARE MINE
THE OTHERS WILL CONTINUE TO HATE UNTIL THEY GO TO
THE FATHER OF THEIR SOULS
YOU CANNOT HELP THEM
BUT WHAT WE CAN DO IS DIVIDE THE ONES WHO ARE MINE
FROM THE ONES WHO ARE OF SATAN
AND THAT IS WHAT WE ARE DOING

What if there is no one left who is of You?

JUST WAIT
YOU WERE TOLD OF THIS BETRAYAL 60 DAYS AGO
AND I PROMISED YOU
THAT THERE WOULD BE SOME THAT WERE MINE
JUST STAY AWAY
VERY, VERY, VERY FAR AWAY
FOR THE JUDGMENT
YOU WILL SURELY FEEL AGAINST THE PEOPLE
SHALOM?

Yes
Shalom, church
I do still love you
but I guess I will see you one day on the other side of the darkness
that is about to consume you
Don't be afraid to come to me
I will always love you and want the best for you
Isn't love something!

***
ONE MORE ACT OF SYMBOLISM
AND THIS JOB IS SURELY COMPLETE IN EVERY WAY
JUST AS YOU LAID THE BRICKS - ALL 96
(96TH BRICK - ISAIAH 55)
I ALSO HAD YOU CREATE A FLOWER GARDEN WITH 96 PLANTS
EACH DAY YOU WATER THE FLOWERS AND WATCH THEM GROW
BUT THE DOG, IT DID COME AND TRAMPLE THE GARDEN
YOU REPLACED THE DAMAGED PLANTS AT MY COMMAND
AND PUT A FENCE AROUND THE GARDEN
BUT THE FENCE DID NOT ALWAYS STAND

THIS DAY
I ASK YOU TO PLACE SEVEN BRICKS TO HOLD THE
FENCE IN PLACE
SO THAT NO DOGS WILL DESTROY MY WORK AGAIN
THE GARDEN IS YOURS, CHILD
A GIFT FROM MY HAND
AND I HAVE SURELY SHOWN YOU HOW TO PROTECT IT

AND THE RIDDLE FOR THE OTHERS IS:

WHAT DOES THE FENCE REPRESENT
AND THE BRICKS THAT HOLD IT IN PLACE?

PONDER THIS AS THE DARKNESS COMES AND WIPES OUT YOUR CHURCH
PONDER THIS - HOW CAN YOU MAKE YOUR CHURCH SAFE
FROM THE RELIGIOUS DOGS IN THE FUTURE?
YOU TOOK THE BRICKS FROM THE LAND TO REMOVE MY SERVANT'S
INFLUENCE OVER THE LAND
AND WHEN THAT WAS DONE
I LEFT, TOO

IN MY GARDEN IN THE FUTURE
YOU WILL BE THE ONES LEFT OUT
JUST AS YOU HAVE LEFT MY SERVANT OUT OF YOUR PROPERTY
YOU REMOVED THE SIGN OF THE PROMISE OF GLORY
AND NOW WHAT WILL YOU DO TO BRING MY GLORY BACK?
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
THE SEVEN BRICKS WILL TAKE THEIR PLACE IN HISTORY
THE SEVEN BRICKS WILL STAND AS REMINDERS THAT THE DOGS
MUST REMAIN OUTSIDE MY TRUE TERRITORY
THE SEVEN BRICKS WILL BRING YOU MUCH GRIEF
BUT KNOW THIS
YOU DESERVE IT
JUSTICE IS DONE WHEN PEOPLE GET WHAT THEY DESERVE
AND THAT IS WHAT I WILL DO
FOR I HAVE A POINT TO PROVE TO THE WORLD

DO NOT TOUCH WHAT I AM BUILDING
DO NOT DEFAME MY ANOINTED ONES
DO NOT USURP MY AUTHORITY
IF YOU CALL YOUR CHURCH "CHRISTIAN"

I WILL PROVE MY POINT USING YOUR CHURCH
AND ONE DAY YOU WILL ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND IT
AND WHY I HAD TO GO SO FAR WITH THE PUNISHMENT
YOU STAND IN ARROGANCE AND PRIDE
YOU STAND EVEN AS SO MANY LEAVE YOUR CHURCH
YOU STILL STAND DECLARING THAT YOU ARE RIGHT
WELL . . . I SAY THAT YOU ARE WRONG
AND I WILL BEGIN TO PROVE IT THIS DAY
IT IS MY LAND
AND I WILL RETURN MY GLORY TO IT SOMEDAY

UNTIL THEN, SERVANT, WATER THE FLOWERS
AND DECLARE THAT MY PERFECT WILL
WILL BE DONE ON THE LAND
NO MATTER THE COST TO THE PEOPLE
SHALOM

______
Hours later . . . .

God, I cannot get the church off my mind and heart
Help!!!!!!

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ONE OF YOUR CHILDREN IS AWAY?

I think of them and pray for them . . . and keep missing them

IS THE CHURCH ANY DIFFERENT?

It should be because
I think they hate me and why should I continue to care about them
but it kind of resembles the teen-age years
and I feel like if I hang in there
that they will eventually come along
I just want to Love them into their Calling

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OLDER GENERATION OF ISRAELITES
THAT MOSES WAS LEADING TO THE PROMISED LAND?

They didn't make it and all died off because they didn't have any faith

EXACTLY
WAIT FOR THE OLDER GENERATION TO "DIE OFF"
AND WE WILL THEN FIND "JOSHUAS AND CALEBS"
IT IS THAT SIMPLE

But I get bored when I'm not working with the church
or taking bricks over
Can I just take bricks over to "bother" them?

I WILL KEEP YOU VERY BUSY WITH YOUR OTHER DUTIES
AND THE CHURCH IS OFF-LIMITS
YOU ARE NOT TO DRIVE BY AT ALL FOR ANY REASON
JUDGMENT COMES TO THEM
AND YOU WILL EVEN FEEL IT WHERE YOU LIVE
THAT IS WHY I AM SENDING YOU OUT OF TOWN
STAY AWAY AND ENJOY MY PRESENCE
I WILL KEEP YOUR MIND AND HEART OCCUPIED
I WILL
"DREAM-SPEAKING" ACTIVITIES TO COME
AND YOU WILL SOON FORGET THE CHURCH
AND ALL THEIR PROBLEMS
I WILL SET YOU FREE FROM THEM UNTIL THAT DAY
WHEN THEY REALIZE THAT YOU WERE TRULY FROM ME
AND ALL THAT YOU WROTE WAS MY DECREE

What if the Rapture comes 1st?

COME FOR A RIDE WITH ME ON REBEL
I HAVE SOMETHING TO SHOW YOU
A NEW PLACE TO LIVE
FAR FROM THIS AREA
FAR FROM THE MEMORIES
FAR ENOUGH THAT YOU WILL NOT THINK OF THEM AT ALL

You mean
far enough that I won't bother them when I'm not suppose to

THAT, TOO

Shalom, Big Buddy
You're the BEST!

And to you, Captain, once more I speak:

The day has drawn nigh to a close that I drive you crazy
All the years pass by so quickly and you wonder what keeps me returning
I truly don't know either
except perhaps, that I have finally found someone who is as much of a
CHALLENGE
to God as I am
and I just want to be a part of the action
Almost 6 years of words given to you
and yet, nothing changes
What is next?
Surely I cannot do anything to make a difference
Neither could
Pastor J.C. Shepherd
Pastor Thomas Reed
Pastor Mark Anthony
Pastor Miguel Iglesius
Pastor Jake Redeman
Pastor George McDonald
&
Prophet John Montgomery
None of them truly have the staying power that this one servant does
Amazing, perhaps
but more than simply amazing
I believe it to be our punishment from God for being such
CHALLENGES
He has matched us up against each other
to sharpen each other - as the Bible would say
but really, isn't it merely
to drive each other crazy?
I have other assignments - some as short as 3 minutes
No one stays with me unless they want to hear the Truth - the whole Truth
I frankly tell people not to call or write me unless they want to hear
what God is saying to them and they are willing to obey completely
So, where do you fall in this?
You don't
but I write and I write and I write
and it's beginning to become very clear to me the reason
Maybe it has nothing to do with your Calling at all
For surely couldn't God just speak to you as He does to me
and you would be quickened in one second of time?
I've seen you walking in the Anointing
and it was the strongest I've ever seen on anyone
Then why must I write and write?
To keep me humble
Well . . . I  think I am now humble enough and I will stop writing
and "bothering" you and let God have all the responsibility of you
For you have truly
out-matched me
out-played me
out-done me
and I quit.

Right, God?
I figured it out
Don't you think I'm humble enough now?
Can we stop "bothering" the man?

YES

Thank You
and I sincerely believe that the Captain
thanks You from the bottom of his heart

yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes
Rebel, COME!
It's time to RIDE
humbly away . . .
yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes
oh yes!
