Now Is The Time by Yolanda Ballard ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am calling you to a higher realm in My Spirit where My power will flow through you freely to raise the dead, to speak life and see immediate results, so that deaf ears be opened to hear Me crying out to you, and leading and guiding you. I want to open up the blind eyes so that they can see My light and truth and be set free.
Yes, I am pouring out My saving grace in a greater measure and through you. I was able to do that much needed work deep in your heart to cause breakthrough of My mighty river of Love, because you have yielded yourself completely to Me,
And yes, it is flowing out to the multitudes who are crying out to Me deep in their spirit man. Yes, I know those I have died for, and I am leading you to even claim their salvation just by the deep desire in your heart to pour out My love and My grace. You are planting that much needed seed to where a bumper crop will spring up from of souls coming into My kingdom.
Yes, by claiming one for the kingdom, you are planting the seed, and I will send others to water, and others will come and reap for the kingdom.
Rejoice, for My kingdom is at hand, and greater works you will do through Me. Yes, rejoice for now is the time to go forth in My might and power, covered with the light of My glory, repelling powers of darkness with the force field of My love.
You are covered with the power of My blood, enclosed with the fire of My love, thrusting forth My mighty Sword, standing behind My shield of faith. Yes, you are carrying My very own armor, using My authority because you have submitted yourself completely to Me.
Our heart's desire is to be in the center of God's perfect will, and that is to preach His word with signs following—to heal the sick, to see blind eyes opened, to raise the dead, to see legs grow out. Jesus said that even greater things than these you will do because I go unto My Father. When you experience the flow of His spirit, you don't want to settle for less in this mundane life. You feel that there is nothing in it for you, but this is where the Lord purges the dross, conforming us into His image, honing our character, working on the pride, patience, etc., developing the fruit of His spirit in us.
Because of this attack from the enemy, I was reminded that in natural birthing, the part where you start to lose control is during transition. I've been prophesied over several times that I was in the third trimester in birthing forth the will of God through worship intercession and that I would need midwives to pray the birthing through. This prophecy was given to me many years ago, and I know there have been multitudes of hindrances to this breakthrough.
When the enemy comes in like a flood the Lord raises up a standard against him. When he says that the fire we go through will burn us, we tell him to flee and say what is true! The fire of His love will purge out of us anything that is hindering us to conform into His image, to trust Him, to need Him, to not be complacent or independent, but most of all so that we would become "on fire" for Him. If it takes coming down to death's door to get us to really draw near to Him, He will use the enemy that way.
