The Chosen Path

Which Path Do You Choose?
|
Prophetic Appeal
Lord, as I am honest before you it is very difficult to stand on the side line and watch as the ‘PARADES’ go by….The multitudes marching on in seemingly jubilation and celebration. They all appear to know where they are and where they are going.
Father, it is very difficult not to measure where we are by what I see when I look around. There are questions arising within my spirit, “Have I (we) reached beyond what you have spoken and ordained for us? Have we assumed something great was ordained for us; but belonged to another? Are we walking on the ordained path you have for us or is this a path of our own making?”
I ask with all sincerity and faith reaching out to you with all of my being, listening and ready to receive. Please answer me, O Lord, confirm your will to me that I might walk in obedience and total confidence without reservation, knowing I am walking hand in hand with you.
I do not question you; but rather it is my heart’s desire to firm up the place and path I walk. Speak, Lord, for your servant is asking, seeking, knocking and listening. I will follow you wherever you lead. I will do whatever you ask, with great JOY. I give to you my all.
Prophetic Voice
Be still and know that I am God! I am God and I am your God. It is in the quiet place a soul is a REST. It is in the still waters that one sees the reflection of who I am. It is in the quiet before the storm that I whisper my undying love and plans. It is in the darkest hour before the morning that my light shines the brightest, revealing who I am. It is in these times that the greatest TRUST is born. I give and I take away. I raise up and I lay low. I plant and I up-root. It is mine to do that which I will.
You all have been in the tempest- even the eye of the storm; and have looked to me. You all have been intensely tested and found true. You all have experienced the darkest hour and have stood firm. You all, when I could not be seen, have followed the scent, the fragrance, the sweet aroma of my Son. You all have been found faithful. Even when the winds began to blow and the storm clouds gathered, you looked for the rainbows of My Covenant of Love and Faithfulness.
My child, you have chosen this path – the highest road, the highway of holiness. You did not readily choose that which could easily be seen or the table prepared by man. But you reached beyond the seen into the unseen realm into the place of eternity where I and My glory dwell. You, my child, yes you chose the greater blessing which is Me. This choice brought about the path on which you walk – the path which is narrow and steep but leads to Life in Me and My Resurrection Power.
You have chosen the path that leads to the death of one’s self so that my resurrection power comes forth. The path where one can say, “It is no longer I who lives but it is Christ living in me.”
The time is short and the path is steep but the reward is great! I am the First Born, The Lamb of God and in me is found the legitimate “Birth Right” of my Father. In me is the place where blessings become birth right! This is the Secret Place in me where the blessings are not passed out to be received but rather one is invited into the King’s Chamber, and the Treasures of the Kingdom of Wisdom and Knowledge which are hidden in me are revealed.
This is the place where all I have is yours! Every resource of heaven is at the disposal of my kingdom in the earth -- the place where my kingdom comes and my will is done in earth as it is in heaven. This is the difference between receiving a check or owning the bank, having a ‘word of knowledge’ or having me who is knowledge, having a ‘word of wisdom’ or having me who is wisdom, having a visitation or living in my presence, having an anointing or living as anointed in me who is the anointing. This, my child, is the difference between blessing and birth right!
One who lives in a receiving mode as ‘baby eagles’ in a nest with open mouths, waiting to be fed, is that of blessing. The other is filled up with the fullness of Me and who I am and lives in Me as I live in him. This is the birth right anointing where there is unity of Faith and purity of knowledge of me. Unity of Faith is the faith of God working in you, releasing the power of agreement with God.
Unity of knowledge is perfect knowledge of me and in me. With this comes my mind and my wisdom. “This is truly the Tree of Righteousness, my planting,” says the Lord. "This tree bears the fruit of ‘Greater Works’ and ushers in my kingdom in the earth."
Yes, you have asked for the more difficult path which leads to the place where, when one who has been refined by fire and found true, comes forth as pure gold -- a vessel fit for the Master’s use, one who is the image of the invisible God. This one operates in my kingdom in the earth and out of the treasures of my kingdom in heaven.
You have chosen that which I have chosen. Count it all joy, for you have chosen Me and the path I have ordained to My Glory!
The time is short and the season is changing. You will see with your own eyes all I have spoken and prepared. Be diligent and vigilant, for I am with you and my presence will grow stronger and greater with each passing day.
I love you, Father.
Thank you, Father, for answering me and loving me. I love you, your servant and daughter, Linda

1 Kings 19:11-12 New International Version (NIV)
11 The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.”
Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. 12 After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.

Matthew 26:52-54 Amplified Bible (AMP)
52 Then Jesus said to him, Put your sword back into its place, for all who draw the sword will die by the sword. 53Do you suppose that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will immediately provide Me with more than twelve legions [more than 80,000] of angels? 54But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must come about this way?
