Michael D: What do you make of it, Slade? This is very serious business. I feel for you guys. I am fighting with you all. As I write here, it's already at your coast. I am praying for God's mercy while I try to add my fight. Thank God Izzy is in on the battle. May God bless her, and all that add their faith to this defence. I have not noticed anyone in Florida showing willingness to take a position for agreement yet. It may be difficult for some because of the evacuation order. May the people of Florida wake up also to the light and embrace the Lord Jesus an a broad scale. And may God protect His people, always. |

Subject: RE: [TruthTalk] Eye of the StormMichael D: I'm relieved to see that. This area is to volatile to take lightly. Anyway, another storm threat is looming over the U.S. Florida again is in the firing line according to latest forcasts. How tough a prospect for you folks out there.I remember sharing some weeks ago that the Lord showed me that the reason the authority over weather was being discussed on TT at this time was that folks would need to have that insight to deal with the things coming their way. That was after Charley. Never did I imagine that what has transpired so far is what He was trying to prepare folks for. I know that we've had alot of back and forth opinions about this area, but I want to reiterate the message. Folks have to take up the fight with authority and faith over their own backyard. I encourage you folks up north to resist the elements and speak death to the system, forbidding it from affecting you. If light comes and we don't walk in it we are left only with darkness, Jesus said. God has brought help. Folks should rise up and avail themselves of it. In all that has happened, God has been merciful in response to the fight of His people. I will continue to join the battle with you folks, but the coalition of the willing must stand up and be counted for their land, not forgetting to inteercede for those who are lost in the process that they might come to light.I know some folks have said that they don't believe in this stuff. Well, that's why I've shared volumes of my life experiences with you all that you may know that this is real. Is it that folks don't believe what I am saying and think I am making this stuff up? I have used many passages of scripture to support what I have been sharing. I feel like I've piped to a people all the day long... My hope is that folks will hear, and as Judy eloquently offered, press through to the next level. It's not necessarily going to be perfect the first time or second ... but God expects us to grow from faith to faith and from glory to glory. One thing I don't want is to get stuck in the same level of faith and glory that former generations had. I want to press deep into the next level of exceeding abundantly above all that we can ask or think. God allows the challenges and threats ofcrises so that He can bring us there. Without it, most if not all of us would not press into it.So can we rally the troops one more time for a greatere measure of grace in God's inteervention with this threat. Again, a firm point of agreement will be important. Any takers? Will anyone seriously agree that that God turns the storm away from the U.S. coast and have it dissipate in the sea? If not, then an alternative.

Let me ask you a question... Was John ACTUALLY beating around the bush or was he verbally not getting to the point?Slade said, "I'm all ears!" Is Slade a walking pair of ears or is he listening intently?A visual will help with that answer, Slade.. :-)GOT IT?????Anyway, that would be bad in a situation where the 'eyes' (aye's) have it!!!Michael D: Hey Slade, I guess If I had use text as huge as yours above in my clarification on the idioms e-mail, you would not have had to indulge...Oh, oh, I guess I'm getting 'corny' here... sorry guys....
Anyway I will try and repeat for you. I do use idioms and colloquialisms etc, but I am careful to avoid ones, or terms in them, that embody concepts contrary to my position and covenant in Christ (I'll resist the urge to enlarge that statement :-) ) Does that make sense, Slade?Again, I will not say that some part of my body, or anything for that matter, is killing me. That's careless speech. I don't want to release that concept in reference to myself. That's the enemy's playground. I seek to avoid terms like I am 'sick' of something/someone, or that someone makes me sick. Again, that is releasing raw material into the spirit realm that references me contrary to my covenant in Christ. The enemy seeks to enforce those things.'Beating around the bush' does not reference contrary to Christ's covenant (as far as I can tell) so I might say that.Can you see a difference there?The principle is that our words, particularly when repeated over time, cut a track for the enemy to run on. They can give him licence to operate. As Proverbs says, they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. I won't impose another example on you folks, but I have seen the most innocuous utterances repeated over time do have big consequences.
