Interesting definitions, aren’t they? If you can hear the Voice of the LORD, it is clear that the enemy of our God, the devil, has sent a spirit of fear into our land. Many of the world and the church are listening to the whispers of his lies.
It is time that the redeemed of the LORD RISE UP and listen only to the Voice of Truth. For greater is He that is within you than he that is is the world! What has the LORD used the first days of this year to teach you, test you and prepare you?
I propose we have been tested and now our time of preparation is over. It is now tiem to put into practice what the LORD has been showing us. It’s now crossing over time! It’s time to go in and take possession of the promise!
BE STRONG & VERY COURAGEOUS!!!
