Why, Oh Why All the Delays? Fear Not! The Encourager Hears You! by Mary Lindow - Identity Network

Why, Oh Why All the Delays? Fear Not! The Encourager Hears You! by Mary Lindow - Identity Network


A Prophetic Word of Hope

I have an unusual stirring in my spirit from the Holy Spirit as I write this message.

The Lord is revealing a sound in the earth coming from the hearts and deep cries of so many of His people right now.  Perhaps it might even be you as you read.  There is a cry of hunger for His sure, safe, presence in difficult times and in changing times.

A Need for "Quiet"

The world and it's voices of influence, humanistic subtleties, and constant technology and it's sounds, bring about an overload of weariness to all people, and there is a greater need for a place of rest for the warriors of truth who are very aware of the pressures that have not stopped mounting for many years now.

There is much treachery occurring in the evil plans of darkness and the people held captive by it these days.

It can bring a real sense of despair, broken heartedness, and shock when you encounter this type of thing and when it attempts to destroy your hope and confidence in what the Lord Jesus has set you apart for to express in His Power and in His name.

Why, Oh Why All the Delays?

I don't know fully why it seems as if good people who are sincere and pure hearted seem to go through more persecution and repeated difficulty than those who seem to be the ones perpetuating the majority of it!!

So many right now are nearly at their wits end waiting for God to relieve them of sorrow, disillusionment and battle fatigue!

"My soul faints with longing for your rescue, but I have put my hope in your word." Psalm 119:81

Fear Not!  The Encourager Hears You!

"You hear, O LORD, the desire of the afflicted; You encourage them, and you listen to their cry." Psalm 10:17

What is this verse saying to you and I right now?

It is saying that the Lord Himself will encourage us!

That is why we must continue to fight for that place of Divine "refuge," that "get away from it all" place of craving and longing for His comfort.

He knows our hurt, our loneliness, our scorched and heart torn issues!

He understands how agonizing and bled out we can get when it seems as if battle after battle we begin to wonder if something might be wrong with us!

"Hope delayed makes the heart sick, but when dreams come true, there is life and joy."Proverbs 13:12 (NAT)

Nothing can Satisfy Dry Lips Like Water!

We are in a time where no persons opinions, no one's books, no one's TV shows are going to satisfy that craving, that need for a thirst quenching drink of companionship with God.

We long to hear words from someone that tell us everything is going to be all right! That our children will be safe, our homes protected, our basic needs provided! And yet! Nothing "out there" satisfies us fully!

You See Dear Beloved One….

…The season of great hunger for the simple walk with Jesus has blossomed!

Only time spent with him like a dear friend will fill the gaping ache you have.  He will speak, He will comfort, and He will show you what is true and what is false in the days ahead if you will return to that Place of companionship with Him, away from the opinions of men and the noise of this life. 

"Every word you give me is a miracle word - how could I help but obey?  Break open your words, let the light shine out.  Let ordinary people see the meaning.

Mouth open and panting, I wanted your commands more than anything.

Turn my way, look kindly on me, as you always do to those who personally love you." Psalm 119:129-131 (The Message)

A Prophetic Whisper to Your Heart from the Savior

"To know of My ways, you must know ME!  To Know Me, you must spend time with ME.  To spend time with Me, you must purpose, to put aside the lists of things you have to do, before you can spend time with Me."

"Order you days first in My Presence, and watch the desires of your heart be fulfilled.  Man and his counsel will always fall short of the full truth of My Wisdom. I have blueprints and a Master plan for so many things yet to build upon in your life." 

"Come. Let us talk again together."

"You are the temple, the house of My Holy Spirit. I desire to build you up in spiritual strength as you walk in prayer conversations with me.  I will fulfill your longing for peace and direction as you step up again into a heavenly trust and rest."

"People will change, man will fail you, friends will turn, if they are not seeking My Voice above the clamor of the day. And you My child will fail others, if you listen to your own voice of reason and intelligence.  As you turn to Me, you will see My compassion poured out upon you and you will then have My power of pure godly compassion and wisdom driven grace to pour out on others."

"I too, long for you as well!  Seek Me with all of your heart, your longings, your heartaches, your dreams. And I will be there with arms of strength to rescue you from despair."

"You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart." Jeremiah 29:13

"The LORD is good to those, whose hope is in Him, to the one who seeks Him."Lamentations 3:25

"What You Need to Know This 'New-vember' and December, and a Glimpse Into 2015" - Phyllis Ford


"What You Need to Know This
'New-vember' and December, 
and a Glimpse Into 2015"
Phyllis Ford, Arlington, TX
The Elijah List

Jeremiah 6:16 (NASB) Thus says the Lord, "Stand by the ways and see and ask for the ancient paths, where the good way is, and walk in it; and you will find rest for your souls. But they said, 'We will not walk in it.'"

Choices Leading to Paths

"Seek Me diligently so that in these next two months the necessary provisions will be made to properly prepare you for 2015. As you advance, you will begin to see things clearly. You will see the need to make adjustments concerning what you previously desired to do versus what is My will for your life. For the choices you have made and will make concerning the way I have prepared for you will bring you to a path that leads you further toward or away from your destiny. (Photo by Robert Bartow "Light My Path" via elijahshopper.com)

"Don't allow your flesh to forfeit what I have called you to be. For I am divinely transferring a fresh measure of grace into your life. A grace to fully understand that which has been placed before you. 

Your perception will connect you with others who are seeking the same direction and truth. It is time to see what is important as you harken diligently to My voice.

"Visions, patterns, and plans that I released to you in prayer are coming to life in this hour. That which you could not discern nor comprehend before will be revealed to you in ways you can easily decipher. While walking in this new level of comprehension, allow a new determination to become the catalyst that launches you forward. There is much you can accomplish, but more can be accomplished by My hand. Know that manifestation will come out of the now and into this new hour."

The New and Now

This is the season of the New! "New-vember" (not November) is how it was spoken to me.
This is the season of the new. This month will be new because we will find that in the now, new things are being ushered in according to the will of God. These things are pouring out of Heaven and invading our now. (Photo via Pixabay)

"The 'nos' of the past and that which has become old and out of season will submit and give way to the new. 

Mindsets and hearts needed to be changed, and I have used that which was perceived as delay to prepare you for the now. 

In order to preserve new wine, the wineskin must be made new. The patterns haven't changed, but the hour and the way in which it will be embraced by My people is new. Timing will have a great part to play in the implementation of the Kingdom advancement.

"Behold I am doing a new thing that will tear down the old religious systems, because they will be dismantled in order for the fresh winds to blow and new structures to be established. Watch what will be caught and watch what will be taught in this hour."

We are becoming who and what we are to become. We are becoming the called-out ones for this time. Changes must be made, and necessary paradigms must be embraced.

Matthew 9:17 Nor do people put new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the wineskins burst, and the wine pours out and the wineskins are ruined; but they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.
Job 32:19 Inside I am like bottled-up wine, like new wineskins ready to burst.

The Gathering of the Watchmen and Midwives

"There is a birthing and a building taking place. I have been calling my Midwives to assist in the birthing process. For I am positioning them in such a place so that what is being birthed can be protected. I have ordered the building process to be strengthened in this time.

"I have also been calling forth My watchmen. For they will stand in the tower and watch over the building as they keep an eye on what is approaching the city.

"The builders and those carrying key tools of grace in this season will no longer be hindered. I am strengthening the hands of My people to war and to win. 

That which the enemy sought to destroy in the birthing will not come forth.

They will come alive with the power to prevail. That which is being built will be complete. Weapons will be formed, but they will not prosper. 

For the Lord is connecting His people and His purposes so that both can be established, and the evil influences will be confronted at the gate. This company of people will do great exploits.(Photo via Pixabay)

A Work of Prayer and Praise In the Earth

Prayer and high praise, with prophetic songs and warfare worship, and apostolic declarations, will seal the Word of the Lord. They will lead the way to prepare for the glory of God in the face of coming trouble. The Word of God will be the strength and the standard bearer as we lift the standard in the face of whatever opposes us. Greater grace will be our portion and a greater glory will be our reward.

A Glimpse Into 2015: The Coming Confrontation

The Lord showed me a glimpse into 2015. He spoke to me concerning His timings and the words that were declared to His people concerning 5775. God's people are entering into a significant shift that will set things in motion that even now are just beginning to surface. There will be results that will be visible and they will be worked out in the year to come. It was a painful process for many who were hungry for change, but it also allowed us to come to the end of ourselves. By us letting go of that which we didn't need, we were then able to embrace what we needed, and it was the principle thing that was the most important to Him.

As we enter into 2015, there will be a confrontation – conflict caused by a series of events which will take place. It will seem troubling, but I hear the Lord saying to us, "Know that that which I spoke over you shall not fall to the ground. This conflict is a result of the ideals that were carried by the values of men versus the values of My heart. It is important to know that what has been declared in the Heavens over My people is now. Those who will follow My way will become living manifestations of 5775; they will gather as an army ready to stand, to fight, and to overcome." (Photo via Pixabay)

I believe this contradiction of ideals presented by the world system with ungodly forces during the coming New Year will be the source of the confrontation. There will be battles that will be fought in the heavens, and even upon the lands, on various levels. Victories will be won based on Whose we are and not just who we are. The seeds of truth from Abba's words to us, released in this hour, will take root and the glory of God will come forth into full bloom. That same glory will strengthen us for what is coming. For that which has been ordered according to the timings of the Lord will not be hindered by the timings of man.
