WHERE THERE’S SMOKE, THERE’S FIRE

*There have been more floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanoes, huge sinkholes suddenly appearing, and mudslides than I could keep track of! There is a rising intensity in the heavens and in the earth.

CONTENDING FOR COVENANT PROMISES

“My COVENANT PROMISES to you are UNBREAKABLE, and they NEVER EXPIRE. Because you have been given the gift of free will, you can choose whether or not you live out of our COVENANT PROMISES. Sadly, there are many in My Church who have believed the REASONINGS OF MEN that told them that parts of the COVENANT are NO LONGER IN EFFECT. This exaltation of the mind of man has ROBBED My people of HEALING, DELIVERANCE, and ABUNDANCE. My Son paid the highest price to secure these COVENANT PROMISES for you, and we are grieved when our sons and daughters don’t embrace these COVENANT PROMISES for their lives. It is sad to see so many STRUGGLE through life because they don’t believe in the POWER of their COVENANT through the Blood of My Son. For those of you who do believe in the POWER, the FULLNESS, and the BLESSINGS of our covenant, there are yet areas in your lives and in your family’s lives where you don’t yet see these COVENANT PROMISES fulfilled. The enemy greatly OPPOSES and tries to BLOCK My COVENANT PROMISES from you. He will whisper, ‘Has God really said that healing is part of your covenant? Why aren’t you seeing it happen?’ Because you have this LYING enemy, you must be ready to CONTEND for your COVENANT PROMISES. CONTENDING means you STAND on My COVENANT PROMISES and declare them over your life and the lives of those you love. In the face of negative circumstances, you COUNTER with your COVENANT PROMISES. Declare that through the broken Body and powerful shed Blood of Jesus that you receive SALVATION, HEALING, DELIVERANCE, PRESERVATION, PROVISION, PROTECTION, and being SET IN WIDE-OPEN PLACES. What you CONTEND for you will VALUE and STEWARD WELL, and your faith will GROW DEEP, STRONG ROOTS into My LOVE and the POWER OF MY COVENANT PROMISES.” 

ISAIAH 53; 11CORINTHIANS 1:20; HEBREWS 8:6; ACTS 4:12; JUDE 1:1

MY PURIFYING FIRE

MALACHI 3:3 (NKJV) “He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer to the Lord an offering in righteousness.”

“You may be uncomfortable with all the CONTROVERSIES and EXPOSURES happening in the Church. I want you to know that MY PURIFYING FIRE is moving through the Church, and its light is EXPOSING what is in people’s hearts. This PURIFYING FIRE is a REFINER’S FIRE in My Church, and the DROSS and IMPURITIES are rising to the surface FOR ALL TO SEE. This is not an easy season to walk through, but it is a necessary season of EXPOSURE, CLEANSING, and REFORMING of My Church so that she moves into the Kingdom Age PURIFIED, EMPOWERED, and UNIFIED. This is a time when I AM LASER FOCUSED on the MOTIVES of hearts and that includes leaders and all members. As things heat up, what is being exposed are wrong motives of SELFISH AMBITION, SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS, and A LACK OF INTEGRITY. Some have fallen into the trap of PANDERING in order to PRESERVE their reputations. (Pander: to say, do, or provide what someone—such as an audience—wants even though it is not good, proper, or reasonable.) Some have actually made their positions into an IDOL that they must PROTECT and SERVE, and their hearts are no longer fully Mine. Your response to all that has been STIRRED UP in the Body of Christ is to PARTNER with Me in CALLING FORTH MY PURIFYING FIRE to sweep through the whole Church and that its REFINING FIRE would EXPOSE, CLEANSE, PURIFY, and MAKE SHINE. Invite this PURIFYING FIRE into your own heart and allow My Spirit to TRANSFORM areas of IMPURITY and FALSE MOTIVES. Declare that MY PURIFYING FIRE will result in a UNIFIED and PURIFIED Body that becomes the LIGHT of the world and the SALT of the earth.”

THESE ARE MY PEOPLE

ZECHARIAH 13:9 (NLT) “I will bring that group through the fire and make them pure. I will refine them like silver and purify them like gold. They will call on My name, and I will answer them. I will say, ‘These are My people,’ and they will say, ‘The Lord is our God.’”

“Today, I want to COMMEND you, My faithful Remnant, for STAYING TRUE to My CALL on your life during this tumultuous season of dark to Light. You have faced great OPPOSITION, suffered LOSSES, and sustained HITS from an enemy who is TERRIFIED that you are learning who you are in Me. But you have kept PRESSING INTO My love and strength and your prayers and warfare have become increasingly POWERFUL at DEFEATING the darkness. You are continuing to SUBMIT to My PURIFYING and REFINING FIRE, and it is producing PURE HEARTS and MOTIVES, and you are SHINING in the spiritual realm. The day will come when I will UNVEIL you before the world and you will be VINDICATED and they will see My GLORY and PRESENCE in you. You will truly SHINE for Me, and the world will be DRAWN to your PASSION, PURITY, POWER, and abiding PEACE. Before the world, I will say, ‘THESE ARE MY PEOPLE.’”

LOOK AGAIN

PSALM 7:15-16 (MSG) “See that man shoveling day after day, digging, then concealing his mantrap down that lonely stretch of road? Go back and look again—you’ll see him in it headfirst, legs waving in the breeze. That’s what happens: mischief backfires; violence boomerangs.”

“The evil empire has been DIGGING PITS for years for humanity to fall into and to be DESTROYED. It may seem to you like they keep getting away with their deadly schemes and with their corruption, but I AM telling you that their END swiftly approaches like a powerful, unstoppable TSUNAMI. Do you see the arrogant elite BOLDLY proclaiming their LIES and pretending to be INNOCENT, while PROJECTING their evil onto those seeking RIGHTEOUSNESS and JUSTICE? I AM telling you to LOOK AGAIN because suddenly, they will be propelled headlong into the pits they dug for you. As you, My Army of Light, continue to CRY OUT for TRUTH and JUSTICE to be restored, My Warrior Hosts are released to give the boasting liars a SHOVE into the PITS they dug for you. The TRIUMPH of the Light will be GLORIOUS as every lie and every dark scheme BACKFIRES and BOOMERANGS onto those who chose to serve the enemy for their own gain. LOOK AGAIN because they will LOSE IT ALL—POSITION, POWER, PRESTIGE, AND WEALTH. These will be AWARDED to My FAITHFUL ones who will STEWARD these things in the fear of the Lord. LOOK AGAIN—we will have the VICTORY!”

PSALM 7:17 (MSG) “I’m thanking God, who makes things right. I’m singing the fame of heaven-high God.”

WHERE THERE’S SMOKE, THERE’S FIRE

“Your President presented a lot of SMOKING EVIDENCE of election tampering and fraud last night in his speech. Already, the voices of the CORRUPTED LIARS are telling the people that just because THERE’S SMOKE, it doesn’t mean THERE’S FIRE. Instead of getting upset that the liars are still GASLIGHTING the people, use this as an OPPORTUNITY to declare over these liars, ‘You are MARKED for REMOVAL.’ Call forth My ALARM BELLS to AWAKEN more sleepers and send out ILLUMINATION ANGELS to OPEN EYES and UNSTOP EARS so that TRUTH becomes APPARENT. Release PANIC, CONFUSION, and a LOSS of CONFIDENCE into the evil empire so that their EXCUSES and LIES become TRANSPARENT and FOOLISH. Pray for GREAT WISDOM and RIGHT TIMING for President Trump and his leaders in the release of the FIERY TRUTH that will BURN UP the LIES and the EXCUSES into a pile of SMOKING RUINS. Those partnered with darkness are going to be very busy dishing up the LIES and trying to BLOW AWAY the SMOKING EVIDENCE. But I tell you that WHERE THERE’S SMOKE, THERE’S FIRE and the FIRE OF TRUTH will BURN DOWN their stronghold of LIES and leave them EXPOSED and SMELLING OF SMOKE. The flames of Truth BURN HOT, and they will not be able to escape My FIRE.”

PSALM 18:8 (AMP) “Smoke went up from His nostrils, and fire from His mouth devoured; coals were kindled by it.”

THE WEIGHT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS 

“In this HARVEST season, the FRUIT of EVIL DEEDS and DARKENED HEARTS is coming to MATURITY. These proud and haughty trees tried to present themselves as UPRIGHT and GOOD trees but My SPOTLIGHT is now shining on the fruit they have produced. This fruit is DARK, UGLY, BITTER, and even POISONOUS. This fruit was eaten by the DECEIVED, and they were BLINDED to its TOXICITY. Those who eat of this fruit become LAWLESS, HATEFUL, and CRAVING WEALTH and POWER. They work hard to develop an appearance of GOODNESS by clinging to REBELLIOUS CAUSES and expressing FAKE MORAL OUTRAGE. But I AM pulling the veil off of the leaders partnered with darkness who call GOOD EVIL and EVIL GOOD. The prosecution of these evil leaders will be OPPOSED by the deceived, so it is time to REINFORCE the ranks of Angels and Hosts in order to AWAKEN and ILLUMINE these that are under the SPELL of the TOXIC FRUIT. Release more Awakening Angels and Illumination Hosts to those still ASLEEP and BRAINWASHED. Ask Holy Spirit to release THE WEIGHT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS across this nation and on into the whole world. Declare that this HEAVY WEIGHT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS will suddenly EXPOSE what is DARK and UGLY by its PURITY and LIGHT. Attached to this WEIGHT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS is a clean and freeing CONVICTION of sin, lies, and darkness. Ask Holy Spirit to direct this WEIGHTY CONVICTION on those who have LIED, CHEATED, and STOLEN for personal gain or because they believed the FALSE stories about those on the side of the Light. Somewhere DEEP INSIDE they knew they were doing WRONG but they chose to IGNORE that MUFFLED VOICE OF CONSCIENCE. Declare that THE WEIGHT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS will result in the AWAKENING of the INNER VOICE of the CONSCIENCE. Decree that this is the season for the CONVICTION of the Holy Spirit to rest heavily on those in the darkness of LIES and DECEPTION so that they can AWAKEN from the lies and have their eyes OPENED to see the BEAUTY of living in the Light with a conscience CLEANSED by the Blood of My Son. Those completely SOLD OUT to darkness will be UNABLE TO STOP OR COUNTER THE WEIGHT OF RIGHTEOUSNESS that will sweep the nations. Call it in, My Army of Light!”

ISAIAH 32:17 (ESV) “And the effect of righteousness will be peace, and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust forever.”

*Deborah on my blog left this beautiful comment. “Yesterday, I asked Daddy for His perspective on the Islam invasion of this country that is coming to light.” He responded: “I AM sending My invasion into their invasion! I AM sending dreams, visions, and encounters into their camp, and I will win their hearts. When I say I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh, I mean ALL. Many of them will return to their own countries filled with My Spirit, and will set their nations aright. So declare that all the Muslim communities in your nation are ripe fields, ready for harvest. And send angels and hosts into their camp with My Light, Truth, and Love.

CALLING ALL BULLDOZERS

“There is a SHIFT in the battle, and it calls for a CHANGE in strategy for My Army of Light. You are to continue to call in EXPOSURE, JUDGMENT, and JUSTICE but I want your PUSHBACK of darkness to go to A NEW LEVEL. I AM EMPOWERING you and CALLING you forth as BULLDOZERS to move opposition to My RESET for the world OUT OF THE WAY. As the war INTENSIFIES, those partnered with darkness grow more DESPERATE in their attempts to hold onto their POWER, WEALTH, and CONTROL. They have suffered GREAT LOSSES in all these areas because of the WARFARE from the Forces of Light in the supernatural realm and from people fighting for FREEDOM and JUSTICE in the natural realm. The darkness is CONTINUALLY LYING and PROMOTING A TWISTED NARRATIVE to keep people BRAINWASHED and BLINDED to the fact that they are actually OPPOSING MY PLANS to reset the world according to My Kingdom ways and principles. Every time you hear a LIE on the media or a TRAITOR politician or a rogue judge, I want you to lower your BULLDOZER bucket and declare, ‘I am BULLDOZING your lies, opposition, and death agendas OUT OF THE WAY, and I am making a highway for TRUTH, JUDGMENT, and JUSTICE to roll across this land and out into the nations. I declare that the darkness is MOVED OUT OF THE WAY, its LIES PLOWED UNDER, and its EVIL EXPOSED. I decree that you are being BULLDOZED into RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT and JUSTICE and that your lies and death agendas WILL NOT RISE AGAIN, and that we will see you NO MORE.’ The battle is intensifying but I have made you MY BULLDOZERS.”

*Commenter on the Blog: “Woah! I had always wanted to learn how to drive a bulldozer! Of all things! This is way too cool! I’m in!  Amen! All systems go!”

*On X, Ellen posted this picture and said, “Here am I Lord, send me”

*Comment on the Blog: “God’s Army of Light=Directed Energy Weapon! Of the highest, most sophisticated caliber. Out of this world! Over-the-top RAW POWER. No weapon formed by man or devils can withstand this weapon!

IT’S ALL COMING DOWN

“What you are witnessing is the IMPLOSION of an ancient scheme of the enemy to defile and destroy the world and to plunge it into the deepest darkness under the control of PERVERSE and ARROGANT people.  The implosion is in slow motion right now but as more and more facts are brought to the LIGHT and more and more offer testimony against the wicked, the speed of the implosion will pick up until the whole scheme LIES IN THE DUST.  There will be no place to hide and no defense available and no more corrupted people in place to protect their evil ways.  TRUTH AND JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL.  I have spoken, and it will come to pass. I AM overpowering the darkness with My Army of Light.  Continue to stand by My side sharing My heart and My battle strategies.”

*Here is a sobering report: a Clinton Judge dies unexpectedly just days after releasing a dangerous plane hijacker who was awaiting deportation. I’m not saying that I know for sure that this was the Lord’s hand, but it is worth noting and pondering.

*FaithWalker on X posted this comment: “Fascinating to see how the Lord shaped and raised up His remnant, brought forth revelation of His word, shared the enemy tactics and schemes, taught us how to be effective on the battlefield. Coded the timeline via frequency, topics, Scripture, and comes full circle where He started.”

MYSTERY, BEAUTY, AND LOVE

I was strolling with the Father through a wooded section of the Garden of Life (Eden). I was so thirsty for His presence. We sat on a bench, and my eyes drank in the beauty. I asked Him if this is what earth will eventually look like. He smiled and replied, “That’s the idea!” I love His sense of humor and His beautiful plans for our future.

“My voice is full of MYSTERY, BEAUTY, AND LOVE. Those who choose to DRAW NEAR to Me and INVEST your time learning to hear My voice and knowing My heart, will be rewarded with MYSTERIES UNCOVERED, BEAUTY REVEALED, and a GROWING LOVE RELATIONSHIP with Me. Those who SEEK and keep on SEEKING, will find Me. Those who KNOCK and keep on KNOCKING, doors of destiny and blessing will be OPENED for you. Those who ASK and keep on ASKING will have your prayers ANSWERED for you, your families, and your nation because you BELIEVE that I AM a FAITHFUL God and that I will FULFILL MY PROMISES. The Kingdom Age will be marked by MYSTERIES REVEALED, A GROWING BEAUTY IN PEOPLE AND PLACES, and the ATMOSPHERE will be filled with LOVE and CARING for each other. These GIFTS from My HEART will DISPLACE the atmosphere the evil empire cultivated of HATRED, GREED, MURDER, WAR, and DIVISION. RISE UP as My Sons and Daughters and declare that this is the TIME of the FULFILLMENT of all the generations of Saints of their SEEKING, KNOCKING, AND ASKING. Decree that this is the SET TIME for the Kingdom Age to come in FULLNESS in its MYSTERY, BEAUTY, AND LOVE. Keep BULLDOZING the darkness, SEEKING My heart, and CALLING IN the LIGHT because the future will SHINE with My PROMISES FULFILLED.”

MATTHEW 7:7 (AMP) “Ask and keep on asking and it will be given to you; seek and keep on seeking and you will find; knock and keep on knocking and the door will be opened to you.”

*A revolutionary new cancer treatment called Histotripsy is showing incredible promise by literally liquefying tumors using focused sound waves—no surgery, no chemo, and no radiation needed. Developed by 2 professors at the University of Michigan, this FDA approved technology is now being used at leading hospitals like Johns Hopkins and the Cleveland Clinic. It spares healthy surrounding tissue. This could be a game changer in the fight against cancer.

FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA

"When I planned this great Nation that would be covenanted with Me, I created a BEAUTIFUL LAND filled with a great variety of landscapes. I formed majestic mountains to inspire awe, I made fertile plains, deep valleys, deserts, coastlines, and wetlands—all with their own unique characteristics and wildlife. Then I filled this land with people as VARIED as the landscape, each a TREASURE with unique contributions that add to the whole UNITED States of America. This Land was formed to DISPLAY My GOODNESS and to be an example of the POWER of My love upon a nation and moving through its people to BLESS THE WORLD. The enemy has sought many times to bring her down and to DESTROY My plans for her to be a LIGHT. Evil forces were launched against her and worked out through those partnered with darkness. But I will have MY WAY, and My plans for AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL will come forth into MATURITY AND FULLNESS. My people, I have called you to STAND with Me and to FIGHT for her DESTINY and to bring down the evil plans of the enemy—this Nation and its destiny are so WORTH FIGHTING FOR. Declare that My Son will arise and shine His light from SEA TO SHINING SEA."

A Watchman’s Musings: A GREAT LONGING

I’m looking forward to the victory over darkness, receiving recompense, and being vindicated. But beyond those amazing things, what captures my heart the most and what I’m looking forward to with great longing, is for many people around the world to come to know our Matchless God, our Powerful Rescuer, our Wonderful Healer and Deliverer. I want the world to see the Father without all the lies the enemy has planted in peoples’ hearts about Him and without all the religious trappings that keep Him in a safe box. I want the world to see the raw power, the consuming fire of His love, and to be swept up in heartfelt-thanksgiving and wondrous awe-filled worship of our Awesome God! Together, we declare that there is no one like You! You are high and lifted up above all else! You rule and reign in our hearts, and we welcome You to come rule and reign in our Nation! We anticipate and welcome this revealing of who You are to a hungry and thirsty world—only Your love satisfies. Thank You for so great a love and so great a display of Your power and for coming to rescue and restore us. Light of the world…shine!
