Lessons From the Secret Place – Lesson 5: Signs of the Times

Today’s lesson is much heavier than I normally send.  However, it is a timely message that the Bride needs to hear!! In a dream I had last night, I was traveling throughout a city and everywhere I looked there were clocks of all varieties hanging in the sky.  I noted that they all had the same time, but no one could change them to set them in sync.  When I woke after the dream, I knew it was something I needed to talk with the Father about. As I sat down to talk with the Father, I asked him what the clocks meant.  I am going to share with you what I received.   The signs of the times area all around you.  As in my dream some signs are beautiful and others not.  God is beginning to open the eyes of our hearts to see what is happening behind the veil.  He is going to show us what is happening in the spirit realm so we can partner with Him to work on earth the things being done in the heavenlies.  He needs laborers who will bring His Kingdo...

Lessons From the Secret Place – Lesson 4: Joy is God’s Will for His Children

When I woke up on Friday morning a children’s song about happiness was running over and over in my mind.  I have been learning that the song on my mind when I awaken is usually something the Lord wants to speak to me about in the secret place. As I began journaling, I asked the Lord what he wanted to teach me about happiness.  I want to share with you what I received.   God’s desire for us is joy.  The world’s happiness is a byproduct of our circumstances.  God’s joy is the work of Holy Spirit deep within our soul that allows us to walk in God’s joy and peace even when our circumstances are not “happy.”  Joy is lasting, happiness is fleeting! The world seeks happiness at any cost.  They will compromise with sin and self-destructive behaviors all in their pursuit of happiness- only in the end to “find” it and then to realize that it has once again slipped away.  The pursuit of happiness is always a dead end.  Yes, moments of happiness app...

Lessons From the Secret Place - Lesson 3: God is Ever Present

As I was sitting in the backyard spending time with the Lord this morning he began to speak to me about his presence.  I have been making it a habit to journal my conversations with the Lord and as I sat outside, He began to speak.   He pointed out the sound of the wind, the beautiful song of the birds.  He told me that creation declares Him all the time, however, often his people fail to recognize the message they bring.  The birds sing over us songs of love from our Father.  They sing over us hope, peace, joy, and deliverance.   How often do we go through an entire day and barley acknowledge the God of the universe?  How often do we hear the birds or feel the gentle breeze and yet fail to recognize God in them?  How often do we stop to think about God’s presence, his grace, or his watch care?   As I listened, I felt the Lord saying that he longs for his Bride to recognize him in all things.  He is in the wind.  He i...

Lessons From the Secret Place - Lesson 2: God is calling us out of the Boat

God has been speaking to me about going deeper with him.  This has been a recurring theme in my secret place encounters of late.  Today I felt the Lord speak to me about what that looks like and why it is necessary.  I want to share that message with you.   God wants to take us into deeper levels of revelation and knowledge in him.   Webster 1828 dictionary defines revelation as: The act of disclosing or discovering to others what was before unknown to them; appropriately, the disclosure or communication of truth to men by God himself, or by his authorized agents, the prophets and apostles. Knowledge is defined as: learning; illumination of mind. Ephesians 1:17-19, That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance ...
