Beloved, you are living in times where it seems like the darkness is increasing all around you. Believe Me when I say that you are a carrier of My light. You are a carrier of My glory. As you spend time keeping your lamp lit and refilled with the oil of My presence and fed with the bread of My Word, the light inside of you will only grow more and more bright. Remember that I Am your power Source and it is more important for you to stay connected to Me than ever so that you will have the grace and the strength in Me to face the days ahead.
Remember the story of Moses when He came down Mt. Sinai after spending time in My presence and the light of My glory shined so brightly from his head that he had to cover it up with a veil because the fear of the Lord came upon My people.
29 Now it was so, when Moses came down from Mount Sinai (and the two tablets of the Testimony were in Moses’ hand when he came down from the mountain), that Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he talked with Him. 30 So when Aaron and all the children of Israel saw Moses, behold, the skin of his face shone, and they were afraid to come near him. - Exodus 34:29-30 - NKJV
33 And when Moses had finished speaking with them, he put a veil on his face. 34 But whenever Moses went in before the Lord to speak with Him, he would take the veil off until he came out; and he would come out and speak to the children of Israel whatever he had been commanded. 35 And whenever the children of Israel saw the face of Moses, that the skin of Moses’ face shone, then Moses would put the veil on his face again, until he went in to speak with Him. - Exodus 34:23-35 - NKJV
The time will come where your light will shine so brightly before men, just as with Moses, that it will be undeniable that you have been with Me and that you are Mine.
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. - Matthew 5:16 - NKJV
It is more important now more than ever for you not to allow the darkness of the world to enter into your soul and put out your light. Do not let the enemy snuff you out and keep you in the cave any longer. Remember that your eyes are the gateways to your soul, so protect your eyes beloved.
But if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in you is darkness, how great is that darkness! - Matthew 6:23 - NKJV
The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness. - Luke 11:34 - NKJV
Set your mind, your eyes and your heart on the things above and I will increase your vision to see My glory in the coming days. You must consecrate yourself and surrender everything that you are to Me completely as a living sacrifice continually so that you will have eyes to see what I Am doing on the earth and be able to do what you see your Father doing.
The cares of this world are a smokescreen sent from the enemy to cloud your vision, your judgment and to keep you ineffective, beloved. Allow the breath of Holy Spirit to clear away the smoke and the fog so that you can see clearly. You have entered into the time to receive new, clearer vision to see and to understand what I Am revealing to you. It is more important for you to write down your vision and to make it plain so that your focus is not only increased, but recalibrated to My plans and purposes for you to walk in and not depart from it.
The enemy of your soul has relentlessly tried to keep you in the darkness of the cave to get your eyes so accustomed to it that you will not have any desire to come out and to venture into all that I have prepared for you. Resist the temptation to stop what I have called you to put your hands to right now, even if the steps seem small. Every step is important as you move forward.
Just as you need to go outside to absorb the rays of the sun to strengthen your immune system, so you will need to venture out into the unknown with Me so that I may strengthen you so that you can impart hope to those who are hurting and who have no hope.
Beloved, expect many more people to have a crisis of faith in the coming days because of all of the exposure I Am allowing to come to the Church. These ones will need to know where to turn because they had been in bondage to the spirit of religion. They will need to know who are My beacons of light, My light bearers, who are part of My remnant that is in fellowship with Me, that will point them into relationship with My Son Jesus. Just as I Am the Light of the world so shall you be in this generation and in this Kingdom era beloved.
I will bring the blind by a way they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known. I will make darkness light before them, And crooked places straight. These things I will do for them, And not forsake them. Isaiah 42:16 - NKJV
16 But rise and stand on your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will yet reveal to you. 17 I will [a]deliver you from the Jewish people, as well as from the Gentiles, to whom I [b]now send you, 18 to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified[c] by faith in Me.’ - Acts 26:16-18 - NKJV
This is the time for the Great Commission to be implemented by the body of Christ and not just a few like in the past. I Am calling out My Church to step out of the church buildings and into the highways and the byways for you are the Church, you are the temple of the Living God. The Great Commission was always intended for all of My sons and daughters to take part in for the advancement of My Kingdom on earth. Just as I pursue men’s hearts so you are called to do the same. You are all called to be fishers of men in this new era.
Beloved, your time of trying to find your way out from the cave on your own is over. Just take My hand and let me lead you out of the wilderness you have been stuck in, leaning on your Beloved. You do not need man’s approval to step into what I called you to do because I approved it all from before you were born. It is time for you to step into the light and be the bright, shining light that you were always meant to be for My glory.
