#384 – A Yielded Vessel

Brian KeithLeave a comment

The raising of your hands to Heaven is a normal and appropriate response to the sensing of my PRESENCE. Hands raised to the heavens is a sign and an acknowledgment of the coming pouring out of MY Spirit.

It is also, a sign of surrender, it signifies that you have exhausted all your human resources and are now in complete submission. A yielded vessel is a powerful one. When you hand the reigns of your life to ME, the best of ME and the best in you collide.

Whether it be the ultimate praise or submission to the ultimate God, you will benefit. This is the seed of your breakthrough, at the end of what is your best, welcomes MY best. In your utmost weakness, you will experience MY utmost strength.

Raise your hands and allow ME to fix it, to be the solution. While, your solutions are temporary, MY solutions are eternal. Relieve yourself now, hand your worries to ME, that I may be GOD in your secret places and the unknown regions of your heart.

Lamentations 3:40-41
Let us examine our lifestyles, putting them to the test, and turn back to the LORD. Let us lift up our hearts and our hands to God in heaven.

#383 – Love Leads to Life

Brian KeithLeave a comment

To listen is to love. To reserve judgment is to exemplify the person of Christ. Out of the concern in the heart, every mouth speaks. If you could take an unselfish moment to listen, then your answer will unfold.

The transformative knowledge of Christ is more than a head knowledge, that can be transmitted and received. It is also a heart knowledge, that gestates and incubates a living, breathing faith.

MY Word is sperm and your heart is the egg. As a seed fertilizes an egg, life is spontaneous and morphs the existence of both sperm & egg. The birth of a new hope, a new possibility and a fresh start is now a real and a tangible thing.

A listening ear leads to concern, that concern is a demonstration of love. A love that is first felt and then received. Love received within a heart fertilizes, a fertilized heart is rejuvenated and produces life. Listening leads to Love, Love leads to Life.

Mark 4:24
And he said to them, “Pay attention to what you hear: with the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and still more will be added to you. For to the one who has, more will be given, and from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away.”

#382 – The Real Enemy

Brian KeithLeave a comment

My hearts desire is to see people where they are and to see myself in them, without reservations or hesitations. To become familiar with who they are, who they are not and who they can become.

I recognize, my role is to root for the transformation, even if they choose not to become that person. As I advocate for them, I am in fact, advocating for myself, because the thoughts that rule my heart are my choosing.

Acknowledging my choices, leads me to search my own heart for the same fears, disconnected thoughts and patterns of pain. I must search my heart, because a healthy heart and a healthy mind, would not reject God.

When anything in my members seeks to conspire against LOVE and conspire with fear, it must be examined throughly, because that thought is an enemy to GOD. This real enemy of GOD is not external, the real enemy is inside me.

The real enemy, I have feed and nurtured in private. A beast chained and locked away from sight, feeding on every fear, insecurity and hurt. He grows daily. A day is coming, that either it will kill me or I will kill it.

Roman 7:21-23
I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. I love God’s law with all my heart. But there is another powere within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me.

#381 – Your Honor is Coming

Brian KeithLeave a comment

There is a coach that was acknowledged with the highest honor, his name was enshrined among the best of the best. The honor had a special meaning. The league bestowed upon the coach a recognition, delayed by his specific team and several years after many of his players experienced the same honor.

The coach was denied by his inner circle, but was accepted by the circle of circles. He was denied by a subsystem, but accepted system wide. He was denied by his city, but was accepted by the world. He was denied by those closest to him, but accepted by those observing from afar.

Despite the defeat, the denial, the disrespect and the delay the coach finally received his high honor. Your high honor is coming, delayed but is coming. You have been disregarded, but your high honor is coming. You were overlooked, with defeat in your eyes, but your honor is coming.

I am reminded of King Solomon, all of his wisdom, knowledge, wealth, notoriety and the very throne he succeeded was because of King David. King Soloman was King David’s son and his high honor, King Soloman walked in the full favor of God, because of King David.

1 Kings 3:6
Solomon replied, “You have shown much loving devotion to Your servant, my father David, because he walked before You in faithfulness, righteousness, and uprightness of heart. And You have maintained this loving devotion by giving him a son to sit on his throne this very day.

#380 – I AM the Answer to them ALL

Brian KeithLeave a comment

I am forcing somethings to come to a close. Wrongs will be made right and the upper will soon serve the lower. Remember what I have told you and say only that. The winds and the waves will blow and many will fall under the pressures of opinions, offenses and oppressions, but you will not fall. Hold onto MY hand.

Watch for Fear it has many forms: ego, short sidedness, anger, depression acting out, shame, disrespect, covetousness, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, addictions, lasciviousness, pride, haughtiness, arrogance, prejudice, bigotry, and condemnation. Love is the answer to them ALL. I AM the answer to them all.

Force your will over your emotional state. Choose to be happy, joyous, forgiving, loving and kind. Do not reciprocate evil for evil, this is easy. Use your energy and your gift to spread light to a condemning world. I have placed MY light in you, to do more than harness it. I intend for you to share it, with those in need and those that are desperate.

Where and Who do I serve Lord? Beginning serving those who have offended you, give to those who you most dislike, your time and energy. See those that have despitefully used you, as assignments. In the shifting of those hearts you will find ME and you will find a greater sense of your purpose. The fulfillment you seek, will found in the eyes of those that hate you.

Matthew 5:43-45
You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy. ‘ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you, So that you yourselves may be the children of your Father Who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

#379 – Time to Release

Brian KeithLeave a comment

In a vision, I saw hands surrounding a woman’s neck and the hands seemed to be stopping her from breathing, attempting to take the life out of her.
These hands were wrapped strongly and had a vicious hold.

The Woman:
The woman, represents humanity and every person living around the world. The choking is to prevent the voice, the story and the gifts from being shared with the hurting.

The Breath:
In the breath is healing, in the breath is life. In the breath is spirit. The healing will be, in the very areas one has overcome, survived and defeated, for the benefit of many.

The Assignment:
You are called not condemned, to the darkness, the depression, the feelings of inadequacy and the sense of not being worthy, that have plagued the recesses of your mind.

The Redemption:
You were not lost or forgotten, you were appointed to an incredible mission and assigned to sharing the secrets of your escape. You were not disregarded, you were designated for purpose. The world’s rejection was MY selection.

The Restoration:
The first chapter was from the world, but the final chapter must be yours. What will you do with the hurts and the pains? If you hold them, they will consume you. If you release them they will consume, the enemy.

The Conclusion:
The hands in the vision around the woman’s neck, were not an adversary or an oppressor. The hands, that were strangling her and the hands strangling you are your own. You have been justified, it is time to release the hold.

Romans 8:29-30
For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.

#378 – A Outpouring is Coming

Brian KeithLeave a comment

An outpouring of MY spirit is coming. It is going to wash away the crimson stain and drown the chaos, the confusion that has become a normal. The evil you see in temporary. The pain you see has an expiration date. The fear will be addressed.

Do not worry, the hand that holds the Heavens and the earth in place has not wavered. The hurt may seem unquenchable, but MY Glory is steadfast and freedom is about to be released from MY mouth.

I have called you, I have equipped you and I have carved out a place for you. You have been counted and not forgotten, you are seen and what you do is seen, the sacrifices, the forgiveness and the peacemaking.

The investments of love, hope and kindness, that have been dismissed by this world have been stored in the Heavenly realm with me. I AM personally attending to your accounts and you will see a mighty return and a massive harvest. You must only trust.

2 Kings 4:3-7
And Elisha said, “Borrow as many empty jars as you can from your friends and neighbors. Then go into your house with your sons and shut the door behind you. Pour olive oil from your flask into the jars, setting each one aside when it is filled.” So she did as she was told. Her sons kept bringing jars to her, and she filled one after another. Soon every container was full to the brim! “Bring me another jar,” she said to one of her sons. “There aren’t any more!” he told her. And then the olive oil stopped flowing. When she told the man of God what had happened, he said to her, “Now sell the olive oil and pay your debts, and you and your sons can live on what is left over.”

#377 – MY systems are Perfect

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Strive to be holy, for in your acts and endeavors of holiness is the strength and the integrity that defies man’s pursuits and man’s wisdom. Holiness is MY domain, where the foolish are separated from the wise. Where joint and marrow are separated and where soul and spirit is distinguished.

In MY Holiness you were designed and perfected. Sin has distorted man’s vision of himself, but there is not a force made or spirit that exists powerful enough to change MY Mind or MY Plans.

Be mindful of efforts to recreate what I have created and to rename what I have named. What I make is perfect and what I called a thing to be, it will be. The efforts to designate an established thing, as another is a man made flaw.

MY systems are perfect and need no adjustments. Man’s role is not to fix what is made, but to find a way to flow in MY perfection. Your thinking on the matter is limited, MY thinking is bigger and has no limitations.

Colossians 1:12-14
Giving thanksd to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in light. He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

#376 – The Choice of Who

Brian KeithLeave a comment

There are two versions of who you are, one you were born from and the other you were born to. One is has been worn, abused and mistreated by life and is reflective of the hurts, pains and shame. This version is temporary and mistakenly known, as your character and has been established as your reputation.

The other is based on who you are in Christ and who you were established to be from the beginning. This version is powerfully anointed, having a humble and a gentle spirit. This is the ‘real you’ and the way you are seen in the spiritual realms. This version is eternal and shapes environments for the Kingdom of God.

One version is generated and the other version is genuine. Like the wheat and the tare, I have allowed both to grow in the same womb, independently. Now, the womb of purpose has become too small for both, the generated you and the genuine you. It is time to make a choice on the version you will be. Soon, one version will choke out the other, because each has grown to it limits in the womb.

The choice of who prevails is yours, but know to embrace one will eliminate the other. MY intentions in you have never wavered and what I establish never fails. What I established in your heart is deliberate and in MY divine timings and specific purposes. Like Ester, for such a time as this. Like Joseph, what was meant for evil has been made good. Like Gideon, you are mighty warrior and like David, you are a man after MY very own heart.

Matthew 13:24-30
Here is another story Jesus told: “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a farmer who planted good seed in his field. But that night as the workers slept, his enemy came and planted weeds among the wheat, then slipped away. When the crop began to grow and produce grain, the weeds also grew. “The farmer’s workers went to him and said, ‘Sir, the field where you planted that good seed is full of weeds! Where did they come from? An enemy has done this!’ the farmer exclaimed. “‘Should we pull out the weeds?’ they asked. “‘No,’ he replied, ‘you’ll uproot the wheat if you do. Let both grow together until the harvest. Then I will tell the harvesters to sort out the weeds, tie them into bundles, and burn them, and to put the wheat in the barn.’”

#375 – A Peacemaking Spirit

Brian KeithLeave a comment

When you have come to a point, where there is no right or wrong, nor good or evil and the only thing you are concerned with is MY presence, this is when you can clearly hear MY instructions. There is a wind coming, blowing into the threshing floor to separate the chaff from the wheat.

The winds are blowing for you, if your heart be wheat, but if your heart be chaff, this Mighty Wind, My Mighty Wind is blowing against you. This is a foreboding and a warning for those who claim MY Name, but whose hearts are far from ME.

This is your warning, to make your paths straight, to be who I have called, not this world’s calling, but who I have called you to be. I have placed a Peacemaking Spirit in you, I am commanding you to make peace. This is not an option, an opinion or a debatable decision.

Your ability to obey in this moment will cause a shift in the trajectory of the spread of darkness. I have made you for such a time as this. This is your purpose, this is your great call and this is why you have been given an arsenal of gifts.

James 3:18
And those who are peacemakers will plant seeds of peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.

2 Cor. 20:20
Take up your positions; stand firm and see the deliverance the LORD will give you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and the LORD will be with you.

#374 – A Whole New Reputation

Brian KeithLeave a comment

In a dream, I saw a man having a discourse with God. God told the man he was not spending precious time in his word, the man responded, Lord I AM in your word daily. The Lord answered, you are in MY word, but no longer enjoy it, therefore MY word is not in you.

The relationship has become stagnant, like a slow moving body of water, a Dead Sea. Much is in you, much has been deposited and much is available, but it has no place to be emptied into. Where is your understudy?

Who will carry on MY work in you, beyond you and throughout time. MY many Mantles over your life are great and it will require several generations to carry out. I have entrusted you with a new birthright and a new lineage.

This birthright has not existed before and the new lineage was forsaken by a previous generation. I AM raising you up to establish a new standard for men and their accountability to ME, their all sufficient God.

New health, new integrity, new character, a whole new reputation in the earth. Men that lead and lend, a system of sustainability, that reflects MY original interests in Eden. I made you to bear MY life and light. When men see you, they will see GOD.

I have called you to do more than disciple, I AM calling you to duplicate. To create more than followers, but to create creators. A new tribe of Judah, that will only worship and serve the true, living GOD.

Isaiah 43:18-19
“Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old. Behold, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. Do you not see it? Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert.

#373 – Embrace the Growth

Brian KeithLeave a comment

When the enemy comes in like a flood, he is limited to the permissions I have granted. He can neither add nor subtract from the powers, I have allowed. He is merely a pawn and is still subject to MY will.

Focus less on what you are losing, but on what is being built. Look beyond what is done and toward what I AM doing. The hard times build muscles, strength and tenacity that can only be formed this way.

Avoiding the struggle is to avoid the growth it produces. Avoiding the sufferings is to avoid the humility. Where you are stretched, you will have growth and where you are tested, you will yield fortitude.

Embrace the strengthening. Embrace the straightening. Embrace the growth. Embrace the renewal. Embrace a different way to view things. See this moment in a new light and in its true advantageous way.

Isaiah 59:19
So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him.

#372 – Let it Rip

Brian KeithLeave a comment

You are ready, now. No more seasoning or garnishments. What I have place in you is ready to be served. You have been studious and diligent in perfecting your craft.

The spirit of not enough is looking to attach itself to your faith. This must not happen. What is bubbling inside you is MY Spirit and it is perfect. I need you to pour it out, Now! You have MY anointing and MY permission.

Let it Rip. Let it flow. Let it manifest fully. Let it run like a river. Let it flood everything and everyone you touch.

This is for every painful memory, every wound, every embarrassment, every hurt feeling, every time you were disrespected, every moment of anxiety and every period of depression.

In your belly is the gift of encouragement, in your mouth are the words of affirmation and in your arms are hope, bestowing holy hugs on the hurting.

John 7:37-38
“If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. The one believing in Me, as the Scripture has said: ‘Out of his belly will flow rivers of living water.’”

#371 – Whose Report

Brian KeithLeave a comment

I AM The LORD, I give words and visions, for where you are going. The word and vision is for the next season. You must grow into what you spiritually know, but have yet to mentally or intellectually understand.

Today’s word and vision is for tomorrow. The worry and anxiety is fruitless, but in excess, becomes a matter of faith. Whose report will you believe. The report of fear or MY report of Faith and Favor.

Wars and rumors of wars is not new to ME. The pestilence need not be feared, the pestilence reports to ME. Uncertainty and Faith have the same markers, they look similar from a distance. The difference is in the outcome, one is subject to chance and the greater is subject to ME.

Your spirit is asking, what am I to do then, LORD. The answer is in allowing ME to flow through you, to be an example of MY Peace and example of MY Calm. These only exist in ME and are exclusive aspects of MY Character. The world needs MY Peace, MY Calm and MY Reassurance.

This is not found in any store, cannot be bought, nor sold and cannot be hoarded. Give MY people, MY Peace. Give MY people, MY Kindness. Give MY people, MY love. Give MY People, MY Calm. Give MY People, MY Faith.

Job 22:21-22
“Agree with God, and be at peace; thereby good will come to you. Receive instruction from his, and lay up his words in your heart.”

#370 – MY hand is stayed against Thee

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Nothing is greater than, The Great I AM. MY hand is stayed against thee. What you need, I will and already have provided. This and any other sickness is not unto death. I hold the key to sickness and death.

Death in this life is not to be feared. Absence from this world is presence with ME, in the next. Be wise as serpents, yet harmless as doves. Watch what I AM doing. You have been distanced from the many, to become more intimate with the few.

Asking ME why is the wrong question, Ask ME: the How, the Where, the What and the When. How will this advance the Kingdom, Where can I help and intercede, What is MY new assignment Father, When should we pray and When should we fight.

The power of Life and Death is in MY hands. Death is not a challenge for ME, death is MY minion. Death is MY mercenary and a slave to MY every command. Release the worries, fear the ONE, that holds death in its place.

2 Chronicles 7:13-15
At times I might shut up the heavens so that no rain falls, or command grasshoppers to devour your crops, or send plagues among you. Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.

#369 – Born for this Moment

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Today is the first day of a new chapter. What was, has expired and the new is all that remains. Only the new version of you remains. You were born for this moment and the time has come for you to reap the fruit of your labor, for you to taste and see, in your promised land.

The road has been difficult and arduous, but you made it. You are winning, because you have refused defeat and will continue to win, if you do not quit. You are a gladiator in your craft and well suited for the task at hand.

As you put on the armor of mastery, the sword of your gift and guard the loins of your call, nothing can stop you, because you are now operating in destiny. You are living in the predestined present, promised by ME, for you. This future belongs to you.

Heaven has proclaimed and it will be so. The intercessory prayers of the righteous are with you and are ever present to guide you. The book has been written and in Christ you have been established. This moment has been ordained for you.

Psalm 139:15-16
My frame was not hidden from You when I was made in secret, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all my days were written in Your book and ordained for me before one of them came to be.

#368 – From Consuming to Constructing

Brian KeithLeave a comment

A seed sown is better than a fruit harvested. The seed becomes a tree and a tree makes way for a forest. The forest serves for a lifetime and the fruit serves for a day. Shift your thinking from consuming to constructing.

I AM a builder and have commissioned you in MY likeness. The seeds sown in you are to be sown into the world. Some fruits are food and some are seeds, to be sown for your next season, your next lifetime and for the next generation.

What you are sowing is not for you alone, but for all that I have called you to love, serve and transform. There are benefactors, that will thrive from your actions today, long after your presence on this earth.

This is legacy and this is how an inheritance is left to last from generations to generations. Walk in the footprints, that I have made for you and those coming after you will run. They will run where you walked, because of it.

Proverbs 11:24-25
One gives freely, yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want. Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.

#367 – The Blame is not Yours

Brian KeithLeave a comment

At a point, you must choose. Either you will be a servant of Trust or a slave to Trauma. What you have seen and what you have endured, were not your fault and you are not to be blamed.

The blame is not yours, but I have entrusted you with the burden. This is your cross of infirmity. I have trusted you with this trauma for a divine purpose and for one of MY highest calls. Do you trust ME?

Take MY hand, let us erect a scaffold for healing, a platform to ease pain and a resting place for others traumatized, in the same way. You will be MY Moses and you will lead MY people out the slavery of pain.

With MY burden comes a blessing and with MY yoke comes an ease to carry. You have not been rejected, you have been selected. You have not been excluded, but have been secluded, by MY very SPIRIT. MY hand is on you.

Matthew 11:28-30
Then Jesus said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give you is light.”

#366 – My Mind is Settled

Brian KeithLeave a comment

I have settled ALL affairs concerning you, from MY infinite heavenly throne. It is done and it is so, with NO other, that can change MY mind or remove you from MY hand. MY mind is settled about you.

The debt has been paid in full with interest. The anointing in David caused a wrath in Saul, as David played for Saul, Saul twice threw spears at David’s head. The spears missed David and the spears will miss you, the spears are coming, because of the anointing.

I AM the God of the fruitful womb and the barren womb. I AM the God of Plenty and the God of Few. I AM the God over the bountiful harvest and I am the God over the famine. I AM the God of the valley and the God of the Mountain top.

I will return what has been lost, stolen and forgotten. Man may lose sight of what was, but I do not, MY remembrance is perfect. Never again will you find yourself destroyed or disgraced.

Joel 2:25-27
The LORD says, “I will give you back what you lost to the swarming locusts, the hopping locusts, the stripping locusts, and the cutting locusts. It was I who sent this great destroying army against you. Once again you will have all the food you want, and you will praise the LORD your God, who does these miracles for you. Never again will my people be disgraced. Then you will know that I am among my people Israel, that I am the LORD your God, and there is no other. Never again will my people be disgraced.

#365 – Wounded, Betrayed and Abandoned

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Your freedom is connected to your forgiveness. There are some people that you are holding to a past and former pain. They have moved on, but you are still holding a bag full of bad memories.

The freedoms you are seeking are within your own hand and heart. Once you are willing to release them, then that space in your heart becomes available for the new resident, LOVE.

Indeed, you have been wounded, betrayed and abandoned. This has been the refiner’s Fire, a pain that has purifying powers, if you allow it. Trust ME, in this purification process, to do a perfect work.

Choose forgiveness and you will choose freedom. Take MY keys and release those you have imprisoned through unforgiveness, once you have freed them, you can now release yourself.

Ephesians 4:31-32
Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

#364 – Hiding your Scars

I see a floodgate of souls, waiting for the specific, unique and essential voice of your testimony. Release the floodgate. Allow what you have seen and been through to become a beacon of hope for others. ⠀
⠀
Perfection comes through process. The potter pounds the clay to mold it, he then places it in the fire, to establish it. The pounding of pain and the fire of disappointment are your perfectors and not your problem. ⠀
⠀
Hiding your scars is not courageous, it is allowing the shame of a past defeats, to defeat you again. The scar is a permanent tattoo of what you have been through, what you have survived and what was not capable of defeating you. ⠀
⠀
Sharing your story is sharing MY Glory. It was ME, that brought you through the storm. It was ME, that left the 99 to find you, the one. It was ME, that placed you on the potter’s wheel and it was ME, that placed you in the fire. ⠀

#363 – MY gift in you is a Well

Brian KeithLeave a comment

As you are looking for your place in the world, find your place in MY Kingdom. Your place in MY Kingdom is eternal and will clarify your place in this world. What the world wants and what the world needs are not the same.

It chases one thing, to achieve it and it, like most other things, does not satisfy. MY gift in you is a well, it is a well flowing with living waters, living waters of life, peace and rejuvenation. Be reminded, your gift has made room for you.

It is your skillset that generates compensation, but your gift of leadership (influencing in a positive way), your gift of administration (bringing clarity of focus), your gift of discernment (seeing the contrast between perception and reality) and your gift of exhortation (inspiring hope and healing) is why you are there. It is also why they will retain you.

The job is one thing and your work is another. The world has commissioned you for a job, God has commissioned you for HIS work. Do the work and the job will fall into place.

John 4:13-14
“Anyone who drinks this water will soon become thirsty again. But those who drink the water I give will never be thirsty again. It becomes a fresh, bubbling spring within them, giving them eternal life.

#362 – I and I ALONE

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Day One – I saw a still vision:

I can see a rope that is being pulled upward, through a series of several floors. It is passing through a small opening on each level. The rope glides easily through the holes, when things are in alignment.

However, there is a problem on a lower level, the rope is tangled up. The tangle is complex, it appears to be a knot and the tangle is so tight, it will require intervention.

Day Two – God explained:

The rope is the procession of life and the various levels are the different dimensions of MY glory. As things flow naturally, challenges will come along to obstruct you, to distract your flow, in ME.

This could be moving from glory to glory or going from mountain moments to valley moments. Whether it is a high point or a low point, an easy period or hard period, ALL of it from ME.

I use the feast, as well as, the famine to create a single end, it is ALL done to demonstrate MY Glory. The tangles in your, ‘rope of life’ are authorized by MY Hand, the tangles are the messes in life that require, you consulting ME.

The same manna, I once used to bless can become maggot filled, when handled beyond my instructions. This rope, that is flowing with blessings can be mismanaged and the blessings are now the things, that suffocate you.

Listen. You must acknowledge the Lord who sits on the Throne. There is nothing created, dreamt of, thought of or conceived that has not been established by MY hand. I and I ALONE am Sovereign.

Colossians 1:16–17
For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. And he is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

#361 – The Unloved

Brian KeithLeave a comment

This is your destiny and this is your call. Your past, nor present are a surprise for ME. Before your mother’s womb, you have been mine. All that you have seen, felt and heard can work, now for MY Glory.

You are released to preach and declare MY word, because the person that failed, in the past, is no more. Take up thy bed and walk, your faith has made you whole. MY grace is yours, it is unlimited and will never run out.

What you have been through, has been for MY Glory and what the enemy has meant for evil, Love has conquered and is now for good. You will be a light to many, those that have been disregarded by society.

You are like Paul, I AM sending you not to the House of Israel, but to the gentiles. I AM sending you to the lost, to the hurting, to the disrespected, to the broken, to the forgotten, to the condemned and to the unloved. I have called you to love, the unloved.

Romans 15:14-16
I myself am convinced, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with knowledge and competent to instruct one another. Yet I have written you quite boldly on some points to remind you of them again, because of the grace God gave me to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles. He gave me the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit

Brian KeithLeave a comment

I AM Holy and I AM making you Holy. Holy in heart and in mind. Your concerns over missing ME in the past are no more. This is the season of possession, the scrolls have been read and the land is yours.

You are now, to draw it out and walk fully in it. Only Sons and Daughters have an inheritance, an inheritance making them joint heirs. They move within MY favor, it is poured out over their heads, so it drips, like the dew on a leaf.

You are MY greatest creation, MY best handy work, Made in MY image and with MY likeness. To see you reminds ME of MY covenants, the ones made in Christ and the ones, I have made to MYSELF. MY best is in you, MY best Flows through you and MY best is for you.

Holy is who you were made and Holy is who you now are. Wear it like a precious coat and like a fine tunic. You are MY presence in the earth. As I have blessed you, use MY Glory, which is now your glory, to bless others.

2 Cor. 3:18
We all, with unveiled faces, are looking as in a mirror at the glory of the Lord and are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory; this is from the Lord who is the Spirit

#359 – Remain in the Fire

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Anxiety is a weapon of the evil one, designed to cause you to peak or speak, too soon. It is like bread in an oven, if taken from the fire, too soon. It is not good for anyone.

It will smell like the real thing, look like the real thing and even taste like the real thing, until the deep call unto the deep. You will take an opportunity to impress upon many and squander it, because you have become, too much … too fast.

Take your time and get it right. Measure twice and cut it once. Remain in the fire. You have to let it burn. In the fire, purification removes the once needed moisture.

Appropriate things, in the appropriate places. Moisture is good to soften hard things, so that you can absorb, what I Am showing you, but when your gift is ready to be served to the people. It must be firmed by the fires of experience, heartache and pain.

This is when your gift will make room for you, because it has been perfected by MY perfecting fire. Your gift becomes both, what I bestowed and what you have earned. This is MY yoke destroying power.

Proverbs 17:3
The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold, and the Lord tests hearts

#358 – It is your time, too!

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Become comfortable, with what you do not know. As others around you begin to express their gifts and callings, resist the urge to become anxious or jealous. It is your time, too.

When you see ME use your brother or sister in a mighty way, let it be an inspiration and not an intimidation, about what is soon coming for you.

The flow of my spirit is over the body, as the oil flows from Aaron’s head, down his cheeks, down his beard and the rest of his body. The oil, MY anointing is flowing towards you.

The oil is not only costly, but powerfully fragrant. Aaron’s sons were sprinkled with the anointing, BUT Aaron was emerged in it.

The oil was not sprinkled, but wasted over him. The entire pouring out and the complete portion of Gods spirit. It is to signify a full trust, a full empowerment and the entirety of God’s power and purpose. You have not received some of ME, but all of ME.

Psalms 133:1-3
Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity! It is like the precious oil on the head, running down on the beard, on the beard of Aaron, running down on the collar of his robes! It is like the dew of Hermon, which falls on the mountains of Zion! For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.

#357 – Surround yourself with MY Glory

Brian KeithLeave a comment

All that you have gone and go through is for others. Like Christ, you bear the infirmities of others. To help, to humble and to heal the troubles of this world. I want you to be filled with empathy.

With each burden comes MY grace to carry the load. The burden is not yours to lift alone, use the family of faith to strategically distribute the load. Call upon the warriors of prayer.

Surround yourself with MY Glory, MY Praise and MY Worship. You are not alone in this, I Am here. Raise your hands to ME and accept the help that comes only from the LORD.

Depression is a spirit and it is not of ME. The darkness comes from a string of disappointments and defeats. Do not listen to the enemy’s voice. This is a moment and not a monument.

Isaiah 43:5-7
“Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will gather you and your children from east and west. I will say to the north and south, ‘Bring my sons and daughters back to Israel from the distant corners of the earth. Bring all who claim me as their God, for I have made them for my glory. It was I who created them.’”

#356 – You will Fly

Brian KeithLeave a comment

The surge is the favor of man or a society based popularity. Many are chasing the surge, only to get there and find nothing. The surge looks good, but it is ultimately unfulfilling. The surge is neither good or bad, it is how we view it.

When the surge becomes a god, it is also an idol and it is competing for your heart. When you flow within the surge and your positioning is aligned to ME, the surge works for your benefit.

The best surge experience is when you are moving according to MY timing, being and doing your best according to what you have, allowing the surge to find you. Trust ME and the surge happens around you.

Do not chase the surge, but be mindful of it. Let it be the wind to your wings, but do not let the surge become a crutch and refuse to let the surge replace your wings. You will fly, not because of men, but because of ME.

Isaiah 40:31
But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.

#355 – Faith over Facts

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Continue to serve, beyond what seems reasonable. The one who sent you, has still sent you. The one that created you is still standing. The one your heart loves, will never leave, nor forsake you.

I chose to raise Lazarus from the dead, for MY glory and I chose to use John the Baptist’s death, also for MY glory, each circumstance are for MY glory. In death and in life, I AM Sovereign.

Faith over facts, this is a matter of trust. I need you to look past the limitations of sight and see with your spiritual eyes. What is seen, is always born from the unseen. What is heard is always born from the unheard.

I AM the establisher of all: life, death, sight and hearing. The state of a thing, whether suspended in time or existing in eternity, whether it is tangible in the present or to be revealed in the future, has been reconciled in ME. I AM Lord of All.

Deuteronomy 32:39
Look now; I myself am he! There is no other god but me! I am the one who kills and gives life; I am the one who wounds and heals; no one can be rescued from my powerful hand!

#354 – Avoid the victims Mindset

Brian Keith1 Comment

A spirit of division has been released to create separation from the head and the body. This includes covenant relationships, spiritual relationships and the ultimate internal relationship.

The spirit of divorce is being disguised as empowerment, to plant seeds of division in marriages, ministries and in the minds of men. The main seed of the enemy is offense. He is using hurt feelings and pain to drive a wedge between you and what you love.

Division between you and leadership, but most importantly a division between your spirit and your soul. By spending valuable efforts and energy defending yourself, holding grudges, proving others wrong or seeking vengeance you assume a role made for ME.

Avoid the victims mindset. This is caused when handling a legitimate and reasonable offense in an illegitimate and unreasonable way. As a bearer of the light and MY righteousness, your light is most needed in the darkest moments. You become an agent of the enemy, when the darkness succumbs.

Romans 12:20-21
Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

#353 – Old Goals

Brian KeithLeave a comment

You are being diluted, not because of something bad, but because of something good. It is the dissecting of a thing, that is perfect and whole, becoming two separate things.

Two independent things, that are competing for the same resources. It all looks good to the eye and was desirable in a past season, but that time has now gone. That season is behind you.

To take on this old thing, in a new season, would be a retreating and a sliding backwards. The placing of new wine into old wineskins or the cleaning of the body, to put on previously soiled clothing.

The enemy is using old goals and passions, to confuse you, causing you to turn away from the present, for the past. To turn your gaze, from what is ahead, to what is behind you. He is distracting you with a good, but a former thing.

Mark 2:22
“And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the wine would burst the wineskins, and the wine and the skins would both be lost. New wine calls for new wineskins.”

#352 – You are a Spiritual Force

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Be reminded of the transformative power in your words. You are a spiritual force to be reckoned with. I have made you to speak life and not death, to help heal and not to hinder.

The enemy will send people and things to either add or subtract from you, to alter your aim and your focus. Your anointing is in your focus, anything that detracts from your focus is a diverging vision.

Thereby creating divisions, two separate visions, one from God and the other from man. You will not be able to pursue both. You must choose one or the other. No man can serve two masters, he can truly love just one.

In this choice, some feelings may be hurt and some relationships strained. This is needed, to accept the temporary lesser good, in order, to later lay siege to the greater good.

Matthew 6:24
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

#351 – The Counterfeit Christ

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Be mindful in this season of expanding your territory. There is a distinction between vision and division. Growth is good and is a requirement, find the difference between larger and enlargement.

Opportunity is coming that will seem to enlarge you, but it is false. It will be a larger role, with larger responsibilities and larger exposure, but it is a clever distraction. It is an opportunity designed to make you miss, divine opportunity.

It is a counterfeit thing, placed in your path heading toward the real thing. This is a dividing of the vision and a diversion from MY plans. It looks goods, sounds good and may feel good, but many are the plans of man’s heart.

This is the evil one, the counterfeit christ, one posing as an angel of light. He gives a premature glory, one that has not been bestowed, nor fully understood. Without a full clarity of glory and a constant connection to the one that holds all Glory, MY Glory will be abused.

Proverbs 19:21
You can make many plans, but the LORD’s purpose will prevail!

#350 – Conduits of Purpose

Brian KeithLeave a comment

An enemy is a link to destiny. I will cause a catastrophe in your life to draw out of you, only what anxiety and stress can elicit. See the enemies in your path as potent adversaries, but also as conduits of purpose.

A dark time for you is a time of illumination for others. You have MY light and take it everywhere you go. Even in your sin, you are gifted. Even in a backsliding state you are still Mine. I AM the LORD, I can use any circumstances.

There are moments when you can sense MY tangible presence and others when you will not. Neither are a measuring of MY accessibility, I AM here and always there. I will never leave you, nor forsake you.

As a child grows, he looks for his father less and less. As you have grown physically it is time to grow spiritually. You have MY word and you know MY voice. Trust what I have placed in you and obey the last command, until you receive new ones.

Hebrew 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”

#349 – Not like Man

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Meekness is might under restraint. Weakness is a fertile state where God can demonstrate his power. God gives might to the fatigued and expands the authority of the weak. Are you tired or fatigued? Then it is time to stop operating in your own power and authority.

I AM not like man, I do not give responsibility without authority. Where there is a mandate, there is also the ability to execute. When I hold you to account, it is because I have provided ample resources to execute the goal. I always measure according to your ability and your talent.

Because I know you and love you, I AM confident in what you are capable of. Will you trust ME? Will you obey ME? Will you overcome the fear that says you can not do it? Like Moses, what you are called to is bigger than you and your deliverance is tied to your obedience.

Move past the limitations of your strengths and the scarcity of resources you can see. Proceed wisely, as a serpent and gently as a dove using faith as a weapon against the enemy. This is about taking back what the Devil has stolen and redeeming the lost.

Number 23:19
God is not a man, so he does not lie. He is not human, so he does not change his mind. Has he ever spoken and failed to act? Has he ever promised and not carried it through?

#348 – Giants in your Generation

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Until you slay your giant, you cannot be king. The king of the hopes, dreams and desires, I have embedded in your heart. The opposition facing your purpose, your calling and your gifts are your giants. Until you defeat the giant of pride, the giant of lust and the giant of greed your reign is on hold and will be delayed.

What I have placed in your hand is specifically designed to address the giants in your generation. Use your strength and energy, to challenge the status quo of both Christ followers and the culture. Find a balance between conforming to this world and becoming too heavenly minded.

The current spirit of religion has placed results over relationships, many have and many more will fall by the wayside, because you the bearers of MY word and MY truth are afraid to face the giants head on. Remember who has empowered you, the weapons of your warfare are not carnal.

It is sacrifice, that will be your secret weapon against the evil one. Live a life of holy offerings to ME, walking up right and beyond reproach. This reputation of righteousness will go before you and roar like a pride of lions, against the adversary.

2 Corinthians 10:3-6
We are human, but we don’t wage war as humans do. We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. We destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God. We capture their rebellious thoughts and teach them to obey Christ.

#347 – Reconsider Your Conflicts

Brian KeithLeave a comment

Reconsider your conflicts. The pressure and stress is not about having a difference of opinion or being offended by a friend. This is about what God is forming in you. This is a threshing floor from on High, you are being separated from the chaff.

The perplexing aspects are divine pressure points of provocation, to force you to reevaluate some fundamental components of your character. The only way to offend you is if the offense exists, somewhere in you.

This is God using atmospheric pressure to demonstrate a gap in your sensibilities, processes of evaluation and underlining parts of your subconscious behaviors. The question is not about your rights, the question is about expediency, what is the right thing to do?

Are you willing to overlook a transgression, to preserve a personal relationship? What is more important, as you evaluate this from an eternal perspective? What grace would you want, if the roles were reversed? This is the heart of the matter.

James 1:12
God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

#346 – I was Pulverized

Brian KeithLeave a comment

I left eternity wrapping Myself in time, to die. To die, the most horrible death known to man, for You. For you, I endured humiliation, disrespect and shame. I separated Myself from the Father and was bruised by HIM.

It was deliberately done, calculated and precisely measured. The time, the place, the season, the persecutors were are all specific and done on purpose. All done to save you, protect you and to redeem you.

I was despised by MY own, I was rejected by MY culture and I was condemned by MY bloodline. I held the sorrows and griefs of men on my head with the crown of thorns, smitten by both God and man. I bore your infirmities in MY bosom.

For your transgressions, I was wounded and for your iniquities I was pulverized. Though oppressed and afflicted, I did not open MY mouth. As a sheep taken to slaughter, I have bore every chastisement and loved you, so much, to wash your sin away.

Isaiah 53:10-11
But it was the LORD’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief. Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the LORD’s good plan will prosper in his hands. When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied. And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins.
