I hear the Spirit of the Lord say, “Do not cast away your confidence that you have in who I am. Do not put it from you in the midst of trials and tribulations. Do not look to the left and to the right when things begin to happen that you did not expect, but keep your confidence strong in me, says the Lord. Do not shelve it; do not set it behind you, but lay hold upon your trust and your faith in who I am.

In Spring of 2007 the Lord showed me the following vision. I have been encouraged by several folks to post it here for the greater good of the body of Christ. I believe it is primarily for the believers in the New England region (that is where I was when I had the vision), but the application is far reaching wherever the need may be. I present the vision here, and a bit of follow-up discussion in hopes that you or those you know will be encouraged to believe what the Lord is saying and respond to it in faith.

Get ready to birth the things that you have been expectantly waiting for. The seed of many things are coming to full term, and must be birthed. There will be many new things brought forth and founded through the plans and instructions of the Lord. There is a momentum in the presence of the Lord that is pushing on the birth process, and when it is time, those that have set themselves to bring forth new life will not fail to do so if they fully co-operate with the wisdom of the Lord.

You are not called to be like tumbleweeds, drifting with every wind, tossed to and fro by every trend, rootless and aimless. But you are called to be the planting of the Lord, and to become trees of righteousness, fruitful in all of your seasons. For I am the Lord of righteousness and you are my people. I have chosen you to be planted in me, and in my house. Have you not read or heard that they that are planted in the house of the Lord shall flourish in the courts of our God.

Are you looking for something that you cannot find? Are you searching for it, crying out for it, and saying, "Where is it?" Does there seem to be something missing? I want you to know that I AM what you are looking for. If you continue to look somewhere else for what I only can satisfy and provide you will not find it and you will not find Me. If you look to Me, you will truly find Me and everything else you are searching for. For in Me is the fulness of life. I am your total and sufficient portion in all things. The author and finisher of your faith.

Ponder the path of your feet. The decisions you make today will determine the place you find yourself tomorrow. Too many times my people do not consider the results of their actions. They live for today as though no tomorrow will come. They are too short sighted. Learn to weigh out carefully in prayer the things that you do and do not do. Acknowledge me in all your ways and I will direct your paths. My wisdom is perfect. I see the end from the beginning.

I am the everlasting Lord of lords and King of kings. There is no other God, no not one like me. I am He that has been the God of all generations of peoples from Adam till now.

I have watched as the nations have come and gone. I have watched as the generations have come and gone, and I have blessed everyone one who has put their trust in Me.

I am the God of all nations, and of all times, and of all places. The earth is my footstool, and all that is therein has been made for my praise and for my glory

When prayer becomes more than a form;
When prayer becomes more than a necessity;
When Prayer becomes more than a responsibility;
When prayer becomes more than a thing to do because it is time to do it;
When prayer becomes a delight for you,
Then will you find the Lord will move His hand in ways that you have not yet seen.

When you choose to make the Lord your delight;
When you count it a pleasant thing to commune with the Lord;
When you delight to seek His face in prayer,
Then you shall see the handiwork of God in ways that you have never seen before.

The Lord says,

Let Me open your eyes, so that you may see what you need to see. As you seek my face and spend time in my presence, you will begin to see things as I see them.

Unless you see as I see

• the things around you
• the people around you
• the future before you
• the past behind you

you will only be seeing through the eyes of your own understanding.

Unless you see what I show you, you will continue to relate and respond in the limitations of your own seeing.

It is good to bless the Lord with your the words of your mouth and to declare truth mightily with song and proclamation.
It is a good thing for you to put the trumpet of the Lord to your lips and proclaim greatly and with great confidence and faith the word of the Lord.
Do you not know that as you do so, the victory shall be ordered in your life?
