#174 – Reconciliation is Coming

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

The traditions of men are at odds with truth. I AM Truth. The church is divided by color, creed and the opinions of the men. Mammon has replace ME in the hearts of those who claim to know ME, but this is the great lie.

An enemy has done this. The church is broken and fragmented into black, white and brown versions. The fragmentation is based on fear. These divisions are not from on high, but are schemes from the lowest pits of hell.

MY church, MY Holy Church is beyond color, is beyond governmental powers, is beyond social conformities and not reserved for the rich. MY Church is a pure and a holy people, that have the interests of MY heart, as its own.

Reconciliation is coming and it will happen through praise. The solution is in the surrender, the answer is in MY presence and the truth is in MY Spirit. Repent and return to ME, Isreal. I have a new ring, a new robe and a fattened calf awaiting.

Acts 17:26
“And He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth.”

Luke 15:22-24
“But his father said to the servants, ‘Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ So the party began.

#153 – We Are Unified

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

You do the pouring and I will do the measuring. You do the singing and I will honor your praise.
You do the loving and I will do the healing. You do the truth telling and I will do the freeing.
You do the helping and I will provide the rest.

You do the peacemaking and I will cause your enemies to be at peace. You do the building and I will fortify the walls. You do the believing and I will provide the evidence. You do the teaching and I will edify the hearts.

You do the surrendering and I will provide the victory. You do the tilling and I will nourish the land. You do the forgiving and I will do the restoring. You do the trusting and I will do the proving. You do the hoping and I will tend to the miracles.

We are unified completely in this, filled to the top. You have a responsibility and then there is what MY supernatural character is responsible for. From your posture of obedience, who I Am, will encompass each of your efforts.

Proverbs 16:3
Commit your actions to the LORD, and your plans will succeed.

Proverbs 16:9
We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps.

Proverbs 16:33
We may throw the dice,a but the LORD determines how they fall.

#63 – Love Past the Pain

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

Speak from your power and not from your pain. The pains in life are constant, but not perpetual. I am the only Perpetual Force in this world. Your pain is temporary, you will survive and there is an expiration date.

I am standing here on the other side of this, standing in your victory. MY blood is Gilead’s balm and I AM here for anything you may endure. Use each emotion to understand the pain and to empathize on behalf of the hurting.

Those that are in pain, especially a perpetual pain, see the world through different lenses. Their defense mechanisms are simple contraptions designed from not wanting to hurt again. If you can love them beyond the pain, you may get access to their heart.

Can you love past the pain? Can you take abuse for MY sake in order to help a hurting heart? Remember what I brought you through and use that hurt for MY good. If you decide to stand, I will supply the power and the anointing to heal.

Psalms 34:17-22
The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all; he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken. Evil will slay the wicked; the foes of the righteous will be condemned. The Lord will rescue his servants; no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.

#47 – Order from Chaos

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

You do not fully know who I AM and as a result cannot know who you are. The mystery of who you are is unlocked by you knowing ME. All that I have spoken and all that I will ever speak, will be so, especially concerning you. You are my Jeremiah.

It would be wise to know, the author and the finisher of your faith. It would be wise to know the one who made you and has a plan for you. Each moment, each trial and each place of pain will serve you. I have placed you in each environment, strategically.

Answer this question. Who are you called to serve and where is your ministry? MY response is in everything you see, touch and feel. Every soul your eyes land upon and all the ground your heel touches, are your mission fields.

The confusion was designed to cause you to look inward and to look higher for ME. Order is in MY makeup and clarity drips from the brows of those that diligently seek ME. I AM the one God and there is no other. I create order from chaos.

Jeremiah 1:6-10
“O Sovereign LORD,” I said, “I can’t speak for you! I’m too young!” The LORD replied, “Don’t say, ‘I’m too young,’ for you must go wherever I send you and say whatever I tell you. And don’t be afraid of the people, for I will be with you and will protect you. I, the LORD, have spoken!Then the LORD reached out and touched my mouth and said, “Look, I have put my words in your mouth! Today I appoint you to stand up against nations and kingdoms. Some you must uproot and tear down, destroy and overthrow. Others you must build up and plant.”

#45 – I Love You

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

I am more than enough. The competition for your heart is great. Fortune, fame, family, fitness, fantasy and favor are all there, but where is your faith? Where have you made room for me? I AM desperate for you and yearn for you.

MY sacrifice is clear and what I have done to redeem and to restore has been great. The stripes for your healing, the mockery for your honor, the shame for your courage and the nails for your freedom. I did ALL this for you.

MY blood spilled for your sins, MY body desecrated for your well being. I have paid all costs, fees and interests to have you, to be restored, to have communion. It is time for ME to received MY due rewards, I want what is MINE and that is You!

I have made it MY will to love you, to be concerned with every aspect of you. To make countless ways for redemption, reconciliation and the reclaiming of your heart for ME. I LOVE you externally, perpetually and entirely.

1 John 4:16-19
And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us.

#42 – Revive the Visions

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

The role you are playing, is not who you are. It is a role that situations have required. You have been a friend, a confidant, a healer, a counselor and at times a savior. This is what had to be, for those seasons and for those critical moments.

In this, you have lost your identity. What you do and who you are, are decidedly very different things. You have misinterpreted a role, as the reality and it has become a limitation. You are more than a mother, a father, a son or a daughter.

You are an eternal being, empowered with the full authority of Heaven. The best is coming. Your latter days are going to outshine your former days. Eyes have not seen and ears have not heard the fullness of who you are, in ME.

All you have seen, learned and experienced was needed to prepare you for what is coming. It is not over for you and I have much more for you to accomplish. You are thinking too small. It is time to revive the visions. It is time to move from survival mode, back into vision mode.

Job 8:5-7
If you would earnestly seek God and ask the Almighty for mercy, if you are pure and upright, even now He will rouse Himself on your behalf and restore your righteous estate. Though your beginnings were modest, your latter days will flourish.

1 Cor. 2:9-10
No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.” But it was to us that God revealed these things by his Spirit. For his Spirit searches out everything and shows us God’s deep secrets.

#40 – You Have Done Well

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

Have you considered the outcome, if you gave your all? For once, consider trusting ME 100% in an endeavor. All your faith, energy and power focused on just ME. A moment, that you surrender in totality and believe ME without regulation.

What could the possibilities be, if you placed no concerns to the opinions of others or to the chance of failing? What could you accomplish with ALL your efforts applied? What would the alignment of MY will and your will establish in this Earthly realm?

By most accounts you have done well. To exceed your contemporaries is good, but I have called you to much higher and have equipped you, to do more. All that I placed in your heart, do it and do it with all the might you can muster.

I AM more than you have seen and you are more, then you have given. I want you to exhaust yourself for MY will, use all your energy, all your creativity and all your time, because the kingdom is at hand and souls are on the line. Give to ME your best.

Colossians 3:23-25
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

#35 – You are MY Prize

~ Brian Keith ~ Leave a comment

I AM a constant eternal force. I control space, time and life. Physics, mathematics and all the sciences are the study of MY anatomy and what I have formed. All that I establish is self sustaining. All that I create prospers.

I AM steadfast, never failing and cannot lie. I AM the uncreated one, all that is seen and unseen was made by ME. I AM the only thing in this world or in the next, that is certain. I AM the undisputed king of this world and any world to come.

I make demons tremble and evil spirits flee. I AM glory, I AM splendor, I AM the personification of love and I AM crazy about you. I AM for you, I AM in love with you, I have a crown waiting for you.

You are the apple of MY eye, I left Heaven to come to earth to save you. You are MY prize and MY greatest treasure. You are MY lover and I AM your KING, everything about you is pleasing to ME, I adore you and you are MY every thought.

Deuteronomy 7:6-8
“For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the Lord set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples, but it is because the Lord loves you and is keeping the oath that he swore to your fathers, that the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

#32 – I Hold The Cosmos

~ Brian Keith ~ 1 Comment

There are no accidents or coincidences. I balance the heavens and the earth with MY Word. I hold the cosmos in place and I hung each star. With more than the same power, I AM holding you. Your purpose will be fulfilled.

The chaos you see is produced by man functioning apart from ME. There is no need to fear or to be controlled by the things, that fear and are controlled by ME. Even chaos is subject and does MY bidding.

Your current circumstances are temporary and I AM in complete control. Let the worry go, give the stress to ME and find ME in your storm. I AM always in the boat with you. I hold the keys to sin, death and the grave.

When you feel powerless and the most out of control, this is when MY exceedingly abundant power is most potent. What you can do is useful in the confines of time, but what I can do affects ALL eternity.

Hebrews 1:2-4
In these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much superior to angels, as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.

#368 – Consuming to Constructing

A seed sown is better than a fruit harvested. The seed becomes a forest, serving a lifetime and the fruit, becomes food, serving a day. I need you to shift your thinking from consuming to constructing.

I am a builder and you too are a builder. I am a fruit supplier and you too are a fruit supplier, in this world. When I bless you with fruit it is a seed 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 benefit 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 MY footprints, walk in the footprints I have made for you and those coming after you 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.

#366 – My Mind is Settled

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. 26. 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. 27. 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.

#360 – You are MY greatest Creation

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 theirs 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

#357 – Surround yourself with MY Glory

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.’”

#354 – Avoid the victims Mindset

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 diversity, 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 – Turn your Gaze

You are being diluted, not because of something bad, but because of something good. 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.

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.”

#351 – A Counterfeit Thing

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. 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 – Trust what I have placed in you

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 – I am not like Man

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?

#347 – Overlook a Transgression

Reconsider the conflict. 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

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.
